Scanner Highs And Lows: Hookers, Hot Moms, and Hoedowns

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

If that title doesn't bring back memories, then maybe you missed out on some of this week's highlights:

Low: There were celebrity hooker moms. 

High: There were jello wrestling students pimping themselves for a mere 250 pounds in prize money. 

High: We got down with the hoedown on Dancing With the Star Wars. 

High: The hooker who charged a Senator's husband $150 was found guilty of trespassing. We still aren't sure why. 

Low: The teen pregnancy craze claimed 17 promiscuous high schoolers, all in the name of unity. 

High: A topless member of an upcoming parade is a tart for the cause of toplessness. 

High: Rich pimps make us laugh. Or maybe they're just flashy dressing rich people. 

Uncertain: Scanner Emily hates herself for loving... the coochie lamp. 

Low: The Bunny Ranch faced off with the Bush economy. 

Low: Please tell us you didn't snatch up the last Teen Hooker Outfit for your daughter.

Uncertain: Hookers in Ghana rioted at an 11 year old boy's funeral. Apparently, this kid watched "Goodfellas" too many times and wanted to be in with the crooks. 

Low: Fox News spreads the (true) rumor that child prostitution will increase during the (surprise?) Democratic convention. 

High: And Mary-Louise Parker is so hot and so kickass, we almost faint at this picture of the world's #1 MILF.
