Posted August 13, 2014 The first article delivers this nugget: "Even in places such as America, where prostitution and its facilitation are illegal everywhere except Nevada, the marketing and arrangement of commercial sex is moving online." It is? Breaking news! And from Page Two: - Fire: It's Hot and Can Burn You - The Wheel: In Daily Use By Millions Lol.
