WHO SAYS THE TIMES IS TOO POMPOUS? From an article entitled “Emperor’s Club Sold an Oxymoron: High-Class Prostitution”: “Here’s the fantasy that the prostitution ring, the Emperor’s Club V.I.P., was selling Governor Spitzer about a young woman it called Kristen, who calls herself Ashley Alexandra Dupré: that she was a successful swimsuit model who’d traveled the world (as opposed to a singer getting nowhere with a boyfriend who’d paid her rent, as The Times reported yesterday); that she enjoyed civilized pursuits like dining at exclusive restaurants (actually, she’s been hoping for work at a friend’s restaurant); and that she liked sampling fine wines (no mention of the drug abuse she’d reported on her MySpace page). The site also described her as 24 (in fact, she’s 22, an age that might have sounded dangerously collegiate to an affluent clientele).”

Don’t most sex workers sell a fantasy?

::in Spanish accent:: You keep using that word (oxymoron). I do not think it means what you think it means.

So is the Times saying Spitzer was ripped off?

Good grief.

No. 4 SnackySmores says:

He wasn’t ripped off, he’s a moron. If he’s willing to pay that much then to get laid, he deserves what he gets. There are a lot of things in this world that we can’t cure, and stupid is one of them.

I wonder what part of the UCC covered hooker fraud?

No. 7 SnackySmores says:

He should have gotten a subscription to Consumer Digest. They saved me from getting a shitty tv, I bet they could have helped him find a more discrete prostitution ring.

No. 8 Blue Canary says:

Lisa - I think they said they had been investigating a suspicious movement of money, thinking it was being laundered after payoffs or some such. Turns out he was just trying to hide it from his wife, but once it was discovered where the money was going…it was just a matter of time. He made so many enemies, there was no way it could stay quiet.

No. 9 Lisa(#1) hearts Benny Lava says:

He thought he was so slick! Ha! However, I was talking about Spitzer using it, the UCC is the uniform commercial code, it has consumer protection laws. Like are there any laws when you request a hottie and get Paris Hilton?

No. 10 Blue Canary says:

Aha! If that doesn’t already exist, it should. No one - not even johns - should end up with a Paris Hilton when they’ve been promised Penelope Cruz.

No. 11 SnackySmores says:

Doesn’t that also violate some kind of health code? If Paris Hilton went to the middle east they’d user her against us as some sort of bio-weapon.

No. 12 Kc says:

The Times is right! It is an oxymoron. How can a hooker be high class? I have never understood that. Stupid Spitzer.

Looks like she’ll fit right in with the rest of the whores in Hollywood.

No. 14 sandy shoes says:

@4 - of course he deserves what he gets. I just meant that it’s kind of creepy for the Times to be saying, basically, “what an arrogant prick — and not only that, he didn’t get his money’s worth!”
