Now Ms. Jones, about collateral...Prostitutes in Amsterdam can take credit. They just can't get it. Nor a bank loan or a mortgage. Brothel owners say they are denied access to mainstream financial institutions. Lawmakers may look for incentives to get banks to open up accounts for prostitutes and the businesses they work for. But first, city councilors say they need to see evidence that the sex industry in the famed red light district is vital to Amsterdam's economy. They're kidding right? Just call him Dead Eye...An elderly man in a suburb of New Haven, CT needed to trim a tree limb in his yard but couldn't reach it. So he did what anyone would do (just not city folk, we hope). Nobody can say for certain how many shotgun blasts they heard, but police say the branch is still there. You will love what others had to say! So that's how people stay hitched...Forget game nights and bowling. Today's fun couples stay together through spirited competition. Who among us hasn't grabbed their s.o. and headed out for a rousing evening of french fry sculpting or cherry pit spitting? The captain has turned off the no catnip sign...Pet Airways begins flights from five US cities this week. The world's first pets-only air service promises to transport your pet with love, care, safety and comfort- all served up in the main cabin. You can't join them. Just as well, there are no seats. Wonder how the animals will handle connecting flights? So Much Left to Say...Nicholas Howard's music bleeds the smooth urban soul of his native NYC (Queens, to be precise).
