The World's Oldest Profession Meets The Second Oldest

 March 7, 2026

   Sometimes I like to do racy subject matter. Case in point:

Daily Whip Out: "Ladies of The Night"

"The two oldest professions in the world—ruined by amateurs."

—Alexander Woollcott

   Mostly, I gravitate to these guys. . .

Daily Whip Out: "Tap Duncan's Taps"

(taps is short for tapaderos)

“Every man loves justice at another man’s door, but not so much at his own.”

—Old Vaquero Saying

Daily Whip Out: "Rurales at The Door"

   And, it must be noted, I have a soft spot for goofy stories:

This may be a repeat, but it never gets old to me:

   The longest drum solo in history was 10 hours and 28 minutes, performed by a child sitting behind me on Delta flight #589 from Osaka to LA.

   Everyone in our family knew him as Uncle Guy. He was my grandmother's brother and my mother told me he was a great storyteller.

Daily Whip Out: "Uncle Guy"

   Speaking of storytellers, did I ever tell you about what really happened to this guy?

Daily Whip Out: "The Apache Kid"

"Storytelling: the world's second oldest profession."
