ElCodo, I posted this a few hours ago and it didn't take...so I'll post it again... There IS a book about Silky the NYC pimp, called "Gentleman of Leisure ( A Year in the Life of a Pimp)", text by Susan Hall, Photos by Bob Adelman, Signet Books, 1972...I bought mine at a used bookstore... My copy has a hand inscription in it, indicating that it is the property of "The Pointers" ( the Pointer Sisters?)... The authors preface their book with this: "Using the bond between pimp and whore as our focus, we have woven together bits and pieces of their lives to reveal a very strange love story..." I don't know if this is "funny" per se, but I believe the same dynamic exists in all "putas" regardless of language and nationality... KRICO
