REALLY? It has come to this...

Here’s the story

Woman Accused of Trading Sex for Gasoline
Wednesday, July 02, 2008

FORT WRIGHT, Ky. —

Police in northern Kentucky arrested a woman who officers say traded sex for gasoline.

Police in Fort Wright set up a prostitution sting and said one of the suspects they arrested engaged in sex for a $100 gasoline card and other gifts.

Angela Eversole, 34, of Fort Wright is charged with prostitution and doing business without an occupational license. She pleaded not guilty at a Tuesday arraignment.

Police also arrested a man they said paid Eversole. He is 50-year-old Kenneth Nowak of Avon, Indiana.

Kenton County prosecutor Ken Easterling said it's sad when people are selling their bodies for gas.

Couple of things jump out immediately from this brief but hilarious article. The alleged working girl was charged with prostitution and doing business without an occupational license. I want to fully understand what occupation she had other than whoring.

Gas is expensive, but people have whored themselves for less and this particular woman was also whoring for “other gifts”. I can’t help but wonder what these “other gifts” could have been. Maybe one of them was bread. Have you heard how expensive groceries are now? Bread has gone up in price by 6484631% since 1856. So maybe, just maybe she was whoring for bread as well as gas.

Maybe she was whoring for prescription medication. Have you heard that people with out health insurance, like whores and the elderly can barley afford their medication? So maybe if this woman didn’t whore she would have died. I wonder if the police stopped to even consider this before arresting her.

Have you heard that home foreclosures are up 565689% since the beginning of time, maybe this woman was whoring, because her adjustable rate mortgage increased and the one job wasn’t enough, and she didn’t have much free time so whoring seemed like the most efficient use of her time. Oh how I wish this article was longer, and if we could understand what would drive a woman to prostitution. Alas, there it not more info so I am left to assume it some how the result of the government (specifically Republicans), insurance companies, and the lack of universal healthcare.

AHAHAHHAHAHHA! Laughing so hard...not too hard though because I heard that the more you exhale the higher gas prices will go. And you know what I might have to do if they go higher? Swim to work. Or kayak. Of course, I will probably only do this one time before proclaiming it "too time consuming" but I'll be sure to call CNN so that they can do a news story on me finding alternatives to driving my car.
