"I'll take 8 gallons of unleaded, some jerky and that dirty, dirty whore in the corner."

It seems the energy crisis is affecting all facets of American industry. Yes, even the oldest profession:

A Kentucky woman is facing prostitution charges for allegedly trading sex for gasoline. Angela Eversole, 34, was nabbed last weekend during a police stakeout at a Days Inn, where she allegedly trysted with customer Kenneth Nowak. According to court records, Nowak admitted paying for Eversole's services, in part, with a $100 Speedway gas card. Eversole was hit with a prostitution rap and also charged with doing business without an occupational license. Nowak was charged with promoting prostitution. Eversole and Nowak are pictured below in mug shots snapped following their June 27 arrests. A local prosecutor noted that it was sad to see someone selling their body for gas, in this case about 25 gallons worth.

Depressing, isn't it? What happened to the good ole days when we could pickup a quick handy for a couple Snickers and a Giant Eagle coupon?
