The ubiquitous Craigslist…it was just a matter of time.

Here in the Bay Area we say that you can find anything on Craigslist.

I sold a Steinway upright piano to a guy in Australia who saw my ad in Craigslist. I am in the Bay Area and the piano was in Houston, TX.

Well, some girls from San Francisco, Miami, Newark and Brooklyn had something else to sell … and they figured, gosh, if Bay Area Bill can sell a piano in Houston to a guy in Australia they can probably sell…um, themselves.

All eight of them were snared in a sting operation.

In July…a sheriff in IL rounded up 60 women who advertised on Craigslist.

In FL, police netted 33 men.

Craigslist is the favorite of prostitutes say police…by far the favorite.

I just took a quick look at Erotic Services offered in San Francisco. After hitting the page some 10-11 times (100 to a page) I hadn’t even dented the offerings that were posted just today.

Police say Craigslist enables prostitution.

Craigslist’s president says its 24-member staff can’t patrol the 20+ million changing posts per month and that they rely on users to flag objectionable ads…which, in turn, get removed.

Yeah…guys looking for a prostitute will surely be inclined to tell police they found something…to be sure.

Sex and stupid…messing up a good thing ….like Craigslist.

Gee, Craig…how about just removing the erotic services link?

School has started….get out the stripper poles.

Parents might be happy that the kids are away, getting an education, making good use of the $25K year it’s costing them to send little Jennie, Barbie or Katie to university.

Might is the key word…

If pop knew that his little girl spent last weekend getting acquainted with the boys at the neighboring frat houses, he’d be plenty antsy. No doubt, that is where she was.

If pop knew there was booze, plenty of it, flowing freely to loosen everyone up, he’d pace the floor. No doubt, his little girl was feeling pretty loose as well.

If pop knew that the frat houses had installed stripper poles so that the guys could enjoy the evening more by watching the girls….Pop would be out the door.

Girls who use the pole say it gives them a sense of empowerment…that they’ve taken charge of their sexuality….

Uh…no!! It means they are drunk and entertaining a bunch of drunken college kids is what it means.

Hurry, Pop!

A corrupt Chinese official got the worst end of his 11 mistresses after some of their husbands were sentenced to death for graft.

And, he was doing what?

The 63-year old deputy head was also sacked because he had lured several women, mostly “pretty and young” (mostly?) wives of his subordinates to be his mistresses.

He then helped them ‘make big money’ by giving them or their husbands huge government projects.

The 11 mistresses (I wonder how they all found each other out) denounced the man to the Party after some of their own husbands were sentenced to death for graft in cases related to the big guy.

Top leaders in the Communist party are warning that the level of corruption among its top ranks is so serious that it could threaten the Party’s continuing rule.

As Reagan would say, “Just let those Commies try to compete with us when it comes to being so corrupt.”  or something like that.
