LINDENWOLD, N.J. (AP) — Police made a surprising discovery when they busted the alleged madam of a prostitution ring called "August Playmates": the woman running the show was an 80-year-old grandmother.

Authorities arrested Vera Tursi at her apartment during a sting operation last month to crack down on illegal prostitution rings posing as legal escort services. Police said Tursi could be the oldest person arrested for such a crime in New Jersey.

Reminds me of the time a woman called the cops to file a complaint about an 80 year old man who became a bit too frisky. The cops had to arrest him for assault with a dead weapon. Ahh, the pre-Viagra days!

Some things that tipped them off were the way she seemed to have difficulty breathing, and the old-fashioned manner of her speech.

The whole thing is pathetic, but what were the customers thinking when a wheezy old geezer took their orders?

I don't see what the problem is. Fellow down the street from me when I lived in South Clinton ran his own escort service. Had a pickup truck with flashing lights and signs that said "Wide Load" or "Slow Traffic" on them. Made a pretty good living following those tractor trailers around.

Rush did an editorial on a land developer who got so tired of being ripped off by New Jersey he put
up a billboard on a turnpike into the state which says. "welcome to New Jersey, a terrible place to
do business" . Not even a good place for funny business.
