Soaring Energy Prices: Women, Fake Hookers Hardest Hit
— Dave in Texas

Fake hooker can't flee the scene of a robbery because her getaway car was out of gas.

Woman lures man to scene of robbery, her two accomplices rob man and take off, and she hops into her getaway Audi, which is out of gas.

A foolproof plan unless you're a really big fool.

They told us fake hookers would suffer under a George Bush economy and they were right!

UPDATE: Economic Malaise Spreads to Actual Hookers

Nevada's legal brothels are having to offer gas cards and other promotions to lure customers. Geoffrey Arnold, president of the Nevada Brothel Owners' Association, said truckers are about 75 percent of the patrons at the state's rural "houses."

President of the Nevada Brothel Owners' Association? That's a job? How do you get that job?

Actual headline from the St. Louis Dispatch on Obama’s visit to Independence, MO:

 

Obama Returns!!

 

The kids from the Lincoln High School yearbook committee have taken over the nation’s newsrooms.

The Nevada Brothel Owners' Association

Wonder how they spend their conventions.

“Scoring with hookers? I thought we were getting away from work for awhile.”

Well to start with, you we need to own a brothel.

Perhaps you've seen Risky Business? Rent it.

And buy dark sunglasses.

Also, you will need a new name. A pimpin monicker.

Something like Slap Daddy Slick in Texas.

Also, you gonna need a rap sheet to give you street cred. If you can't find any undercover officers, just solicit a uniformed one for sex.

7 there is nothing funny about fake hookers.

8 Yeah I can see how driving to a brothel in the desert outside of Las Vegas county is less enticing given the price of gas.

9 The story from Nevada reminds me of one told by an entertainment promoter in the Oil States (Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana) during the 80s.


In those days, the promoter would run a show in the Louisiana Superdome on a somewhat regular basis, which was the single biggest venue in the area he controlled.


In preparation for this show, he would send a top assistant down to New Orleans a few days in advance to take care of business.

As part of that employee's ritual, he would spend at least one night pouring through the escort ads in the New Orleans Yellow Pages, calling various escort services, and procuring a girl that met his exact standards. 

(New Orleans' reputation being what it is, there were numerous escort services in the city and they all advertised heavily.)


Once the oil prices collapsed in the mid-1980s, affecting the economy within all of the oil states, the assistant called the promoter one night and said that he couldn't find a hooker because the escort agencies were out of business.

This wasn't just one agency... EVERY agency in the phone book was out of business.


The promoter read a lot into that... if there wasn't enough business to keep the hookers in a party town like New Orleans in business, there sure weren't going to be enough people to cover his costs if he continued running shows in that city.

You know all those great old cop shows like Hawaii Five-O and Columbo that made criminals out to be really, really smart?

Yeah...not so much.

12 How long before the hookers start charging for mileage? It's an outrage.

Should that obviously be "Who do you have to screw to get a job like that?"

Disappointed in you, Dave.

17 yeah, I know.  premature ejokeulation.

22 So does this mean that the "lot lizards" (aka delivery whores) have seen an uptick in business?  If Mohammed won't go to the mountain...

It's not only hookers being hurt by high gas prices, think of the pimps and crackwhores.

Such as this sad story.

busty Japanese supermodel???

I thought such a thing did not occur naturally. 

Dave in Texas has also been to Taiwan.  This should add to his cred as a brothel franchisee.

28  OT: the price at my three nearest gas stations dropped four cents! First time the price has gone down in a long while.

We don't know.  The science is not settled.

My personal observations in Taiwan, anecdotal though they may be, natural occurrance would be, unlikely.

I have to hand it to the democrats this time, it's sheer genius, and working like a charm. 

And don't be fooled; soccer moms from all across the country are randomly soliciting BJ's for a tank of gas, - just so Littl' Johnny can practice his dribbling... Sheer genius.

Posted by: bubba at July 01, 2008 06:27 PM (zAvxs)

31 Hmmmm.

Whats next?

Brothel Loyalty Cards?

32 Hmmmm.

"And don't be fooled; soccer moms from all across the country are randomly soliciting BJ's for a tank of gas, - just so Littl' Johnny can practice his dribbling... Sheer genius."

Cool!  I knew hanging around those soccer fields would pay off one day.

33 Could I suggest a new ad for the brothel:
Drill here, drill now, pay less!

    Brothel jobs are like other jobs around here.   Somebody tells you about the job, and you apply.   Mostly they need runners to drive the girls around.  But the girls got to get checked monthly by a DR. and he has a nurse with him.    My Grandmother was a cook for a few years. Then they had her be a runner. she made a wage, and the girls gave tips.  

   It is a legal, taxable way for the state to get revenue.   I just don't see why more states don't do this.   oh thats right...   it must feel better to do it the old fashioned way, honking your horn down on Telegraph road, and hoping she doesn't have a dick.
