Get the ho! Down!

So I went to thestate.com, you know, I do that every once in a while to keep up with the Columbia news (plus, gawd, pouting at work really saps the work ethic). I saw a headline for a prostitution bust, and I got all excited thinking it might be related to my sister — she went undercover as a prostitute recently (she did!).

But it was Lexington County, not _____, where my sister works. (Don't know if it matters, but I'm playing it safe.) ANYWAY (Jim used to call me the queen of the non sequiturs), the name of the sting was, without comment in the local press, "Operation Hoe-Down."

Seriously.


I'm just trying to imagine the press conference. Do you think they even TRIED to keep a straight face?
