Info Pimp

"Libraries are brothels for the mind. Which means that librarians are the madams, greeting punters, understanding their strange tastes and needs, and pimping their books." Guy Browning (The Guardian column, www.guardian.co.uk 18 October 2003)

psyched out

Is anyone else disturbed by this last paragraph from a BBC article on the 'Suffolk Strangler':

Forensic psychologist Dr Ian Stephen, who has worked on previous serial killer cases, says he thinks the murderer is likely to try to kill more women.
He said: "What may be an issue is that when he starts running out of prostitutes not becoming available, he will see any woman who's out on the street at night on their own as a prostitute and will target them as a possible victim."


Oh no.
Better make sure we don't 'run out of prostitutes'!

How horrid is that sentence eh.
He might be a psych, but he certainly doesn't have a way with words.
Bet he struggled not to say 'normal women may be targeted'.
*shakes head*

Hmm. I think what he really means is "real humans may actually be killed if he runs out of sub-humans to murder! The horror!" There has been entirely too much of this bullshit in the coverage of the murders.
