Oneo the high school English teachers asked me about this. There was a Geneal Hooker who served in the Civil War. One of her seniors stated that he had heard that is where the term "hoooker" as in prostitute originated. Has anyone else heard that? Thanks for yor help. I will post as soon as I get an answer. --------------------------------------------------------- Beverly Nelson Media Generalist Spring Grove Public School Spring Grove, MN 55974 bev.nelson@springgrove.k12.mn.us 507-498-3221 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-= All postings to LM_NET are protected under copyright law.
