That's definitely a new twist to the old addage "fill 'er up"!

Here's a quote from the web article:


Quote:
Eversole plead not guilty to charges of prostitution and doing business without an occupational license. She bailed herself out of jail and is scheduled for her next court date on July 29.
An occupational license? They need a "occupational license" for prostitution? I've heard of licenses for medical practioners, lawyers, accountants, truck drivers, but I didn't know they needed a license also for prostitution! LOL.. Unless of course they're referring to some other "occupation" she does full time, and prostitution was a part time occupation...

I think it's legal in the entire state of Nevada, but the woman in this story was from Kentucky.. unless she was a Nevada resident that was visiting Kentucky, but needed gas to get back home..

Is that why the old-timers always said "Time to pump some Ethyl!"?

It's only legal in NV in a few places. Not the whole state. And definitely not in Vegas. Doesn't mean that it doesn't happen. It's just not legal.
