Truth via gmail: 5th Avenue Hookers

bear with me on this one, I promise all the pieces come together in the end....

Lyrics to the song The Boxer by Simon and Garfunkel:
"Now I'm laying out my winter clothes and looking for a job
But I get no offers; just a come-on from the whores on 7th Avenue..."

(for all you musical idiots)

1:23 PM Chris: asking only workman's wages i come looking for a job, but i get no offers...
1:25 PM me: are you calling me a whore?
1:26 PM Chris: definitely not a seventh avenue whore. maybe fifth
1:29 PM me: that is a small comfort

Check out Maureen Dowd today. There ARE whores on 5th Avenue and they are "stunning".

Maureen Dowd's Op Ed on Paul Newman


The quote in reference:
"He recalled how utterly flummoxed he was the time a stunning call girl approached him on Fifth Avenue and offered to dispense with her fee."

My question to the blogosphere:

Am I offended or flattered?
