So, folks, google Turners Falls and see all the invented glory that comes up. They are trying so very hard to increase tourism and get "quality" (read: monied, shallow, hollow-brained yuppies) to move here, that the town is advertising itself in most mendacious manner on the internet, complete with black fishnet stockings, red lipstick, spike heels, and all the other tools of the hooking trade.
Don't be fooled!
You'll read nothing on the internet about the high rate of alcoholism and drug use in this pit, or the high rate of business failure. Nor will you read about teenagers beating other teenagers to death with baseball bats while still other teenagers look on. You won't read about the abysmal school system, the pregnant teens, and so much more fun.
A whore, after all, when you remove all the fake stuff, is pretty much like any other whore.
