Those of you who are in that latter category probably need to get out more. It is a well traveled notion that prostitution is the planet's oldest service industry job. At many points in history women of negotiable affection have gone with the poker industry in the same complimentary fashion as a warm glass of milk and a bag of Oreos go together.
