Ever hear the joke about the guy who drives up in a chauffeured limo to a trendy night club and asks one of the ladies standign outside, "Would you have sex with me for $1,000,000"?

To which she readily said, "Yes, I would"!

Then the man said, "Would you have sex with me for $25"?

The woman replied, "What kind of girl do you think I am"?

The man says, "We have already established that. Now we are just dickering over price".

For her to be a prostitute, she would have to be putting out for Kobe. I doubt he is getting any attention from her. At the moment, I consider this more of a business arrangement. It is in her best interest for Kobe to get off, so to speak. When the trial ends, she splits.

My wife and I were discussing this case the other nite. She thinks he's mostly guilty. I'm not sure but ever so slightly tilt that way while acknowledging that the case is very ambiguous.

My wife then declared about prostitution that "most women have some element of prostitution in their relationship with men at some point in their life however subtle". I was startled none the less. I wasn't sure if it was cynicism, realspeak, or PMS talking.
