Walking for Change
Our country has many economic situations that need real solutions. These include crime, poverty, drugs, not to mention getting prostates off the street. Too often, well meaning & well-intentioned leaders the end result; they over look the more difficult cure within the cause. Here is another example of good intentions missing the root cause. The following quip pokes fun at a few overlooked implications: "a walk for change".

On 09/20/’07 The Kansas City Star ran an article that asked citizen to join a charity walk to get prostitutes off the street. But isn’t street walking and selling your effort for money considered prostitution? Also, who would walk for change? The article was unclear about a rendezvous spot, presumably on a street corner. Time was not disclosed, since this appears to be a small-time job.
The organizer said that she had taken several positions, and really wants the public to bend over backwards. The walk is expected to have a low turnout, since it’s virgin try. The follow-up event next year is booked as a rubber match. There is hope for a turn over in an effort to snatch victory from a defeat. This fall season was chosen, since the deciduous trees will be de-clothing. (I heard one Ash tree say to a female conifer, " Take it off! Take it all off! ".

A few questions remain unanswered. Will the organizer take names, addresses, phone #’s, etc? And, will she put them in her little black book? Will she stiff those supporters by selling personal info? Will these streetwalkers’ names appear in the paper as supporters of Hooker Rights? Doesn’t this whole bit sound like folks are getting in bed with the Big Bang Theory, revisited?
