Hi Fitz

It's no less an absurd theory than some of the fare which circulates around these parts.

I interpret it as they all wanted and needed money.

...and not one of them would have turned down money if enough was offered. Regardless of what they were wearing or what their intentions were for the evening (soliciting, not-soliciting, meeting a beau, drinking with friends), they were all experienced prostitutes. If that's what the murderer was looking for, that's what he got.

Hello Tom.

"There's actually more evidence with which to conclude Stride was soliciting than Nichols."

Except personal statement.

Cheers.

Neither stated "I'm going soliciting!" nor "I'm not going soliciting!"

Yours truly,

If you wish to catch the eye of a better buyer best have something better to sell.

Exactly. That is why the make up industry is a multi million dollar business not to mention the fashion industry.

Hello CD. Thanks.

That depends upon the clientele.

And wasn't she in competition with her fellow sisters for that SAME clientele?

Hello Lynn,

Why does the subject invoke such sarcasm? Is the idea that a prostitute might fix herself up a bit to attract men so far fetched? No one is suggesting that Liz spent $500 at Victoria's Secret simply that she was trying to do the best with what she had to work with. Seems reasonable to me.

business acumen

Hello CD. Thanks.

Yes, one must invest 6d to earn 3d--a tough life.

Reminds me of the two Aggies who graduated from Texas A & M business school. They bought melons for 50 c each and resold them for half a dollar. At the end of the day, they calculated their profits.

"No profit, but no loss. We broke even."

"What shall we do?"

"Well, you know what we learned in school--we must increase volume of sales."

Cheers.

But perhaps no RELIABLE source?

I would contend that we have no contemporary source, Lynn; in which case our modern sources cannot possibly be reliable.

the Prostitutes' Church
four-penny knee tremblers
foreigners (euphemism specifically referring to Jews)
etc.

[c.d.]

Hello CD.

"Furthermore, she was in a competitive business. It is my experience that men prefer attractive women over those less fortunately blessed."

Yes, one must be diligent and invest a good bit to collect that 4d.

Cheers.

Hello Lynn,

You hit the nail on the head, I think. That would explain why you see so few hookers with no makeup, wearing ratty old bathrobes and sneakers.
