You could always dispute the ticket in court and hope for a female judge.

Seing a woman who is 19 or 20 makes feel like a "Dirty Old Man". I pay good money for that feeling, dammit! :mrgreen:

You could call it an "Appearance Fee" where you have to actually show up to get the money! But I digress.:-?

The Walmart comparison has come up time and again in this thread and the comparison isn't completely accurate. In fairness to Walmart, they tend to be very hard on their competition which are outlets that sell the same or similar cheaply made poor quality product at higher prices. It is true that when Walmart moves in many businesses close down. But in their place come businesses which sell top quality merchandise with much better customer service. These business are benefiting from the increased traffic in the area attracted to Walmart. In a way, CERB and the SPs on here are benefiting from the increase in customer base casued by the CL phenomenom here and throughout North America. As clients dip there toes into the services available on CL and start too look around for more/better experiences, they find places like EC and CERB and the ladies who are present there. Hopefully they find better quality experiences and customer services. As for bad experiences on CL scaring away a client from the industry for good, I think you under estimate the factors which drive us men to particaipate in the hobby. One bad experience woudl drive away only the slightest minority.

A little on the longish side, but an axcellent attempt by the author to change the public sterotype of a prostitute. As for Ms Emily Marie, definately on my TDL http://www.mondaymag.com/articles/entry/companion-for-hire/news/

My all-time favourite theme: Welcome Back

Most of our Civil politicians and society in general do not get it. You cannot even start treating the addiction until you secure and stabilize the life these people are trying to escape from. If they are worriying where next month's rent or the power bill is going to come from, if they don't feel safe in wherever they are living, they will just return to drugs to escape the life that is overwhelming them.

Perhaps a better way of asking would be: Which is a good day to call you and have a better than average chance of you picking up the phone and having an opportunity to see you in the subsequent couple of hours?

I have an idea how that may happened, you lucky bastard! I am forever envious. rickoshadows

Props to JazzitUp for organizing this event. I had a great time for the time I was there. To the ladies, thx for making my week. This beng my first social I've attended ever, anywhere. I must admit I was amazed at how normal everyone is. Not that I epected anything really outlandish, but the normalcy went a long way to making me feel at ease.

My first car: Only in blue. I had a lot of fun in this car. My next car: Just about broke me. It was way more expensive and troublesome than it was worth.

I believe I heard yesterday that Pakistan stated they would be willing to let a third party administer the aid money. I think they realize themsleves that their track record is not a good one. Has anyone heard how much their fellow Islamic governments are putting up. Turkey has stepped up, but \i haven't heard of any others.

I've been to places like that.

Masturbation: It's quick, clean, convenient and you don't have to walk home in the cold . . . but it's lonely.

Probably includes all of your 'You have been bad" posts.:mrgreen:

A few years back, I joined my ship prior to a deployment after working a job ashore for a couple of years. The medic called me in to update my immunizations. He said, "I can only put two shots in each limb, so take off your shirt and your pants. Oh, and you will need you to come back tomorrow." Needles themselves don't bother me, but some of the shots take a few days to get over, yellow fever and denge fever being the worst. Malaria is no treat either as it usally comes with a gamma globulin shot. This stuff is like a thick gel which comes straight out of the fridge into your ass. I am so glad I no longer have to go through that stuff anymore.

I have put it into my calender, although I will only be part of the early crowd.

Here is the debate. I chime in at post 37 and get a number of replies strongly supporting the staus quo. http://www.cerb.ca/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=1642 In post 65, my third point is "Fawking Pshycic" In case my link doesn't work: the topic is titled:Escort Laws in Plain English and it was started 18 Jul 2007.

I have always advocated for legal status of prostitution and throwing out the bawdy house laws. A significant number on here disagreed and said that things are fine the way they are. The trouble of not having a recognized legal status is that when the winds of politics change, sex workers become collateral damage. Here is a perfect example of that. In some more tolerant jurisdictions, life will carry on as normal, but I expect that some of the more conservative provicial and municipal governments will use this opportunity to crack down on the more visible sex workers in order to garner suport among the more conservative factions of society, seeing as this is the way the wind of change is currently blowing.

The best theme room I have experienced was in New Zealand. It was called the grotto. They took a small odd shaped room covered the walls with concrete to resemble natural stone. They integrated a shower and a spa tub. The whole effect was like a cave adjacent to a waterfall. Instead of a bed, there was a cubbyhole with something like a work out mat which was covered with an appropriately designed sheet (tiger stripes). The long lean Maori girl with me just added to the experience. The place also had a dungeon, which I did not get to see, unfortunately. Sadly, Famous Floras is now closed. http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10487618

The question about being disease free is from the way most of these guys were raised. Their mothers told them since they were old enough to notice girls that bad girls and prostitutes were disease ridden tramps who doesn't deserve their fair haired boy. "Disease-ridden" is an adjective which is thrown out routinely by "good church-going" people whenever the subject comes up. It is also used by many of the feminist groups who are trying to suppress the sex industry in the name of empowering women (sic). These attitudes are still rife in our society and the recent swing towards conservatism is not helping. Even teen girls throw out the label when gossipig among themselves. I have noticed that many newbies come onto the boards and specifically ask for recommendations of "disease-free" or "clean" SPs. My advice for these people is that: If diseases are your number one concern, then you are not ready to play and it is time to go and have a long talk with your grandmother (don't bother with mom, casue she's the one who fucked you up in the first place). Hopfully Granny has wizened up by now. I know the best source of straight info I ever had was mine.

Thx for the replies. Pretty much the same conclusions as I have come to. The rebate seem to come from Ford Credit and doesn't cost the dealer anything, although I am sure their is a little something in it for the dealer if he signs someone up for a finance plan. As for paying off thr balance after the first payment, it is definately a case of read the fine print. Unfortunately, this person is who is buying is elderly and a long way away. I'm a little concerned the salesman may not have all the details of the financial arrangement and the fine print may be glossed over a little.

I know someone who is thinking of buying a Ford vehicle. While getting the sales pitch, he was told that if he finances through Ford, he gets a $500 rebate. He wouldn't get this if he pays cash. He was also told that after one payment, he could pay off the balance, therefore saving any interest and keep the $500 rebate. This doesn't make any sense to me. How can anyone sell something financed cheaper than for cash? Does anyone know what the catch might be?

These may be from the ancient past, but these two tracks from American Gigolo always get my blood boiling. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UurG2r10Ows&feature=related Oh and Debbie Harry was walking wet dream too.
