I don't know, but there's an answer somwhere in these pictures Well maybe the answer is this. Maybe it's not the footwear per se, but, like with everything a lady wears, its the lady that makes the clothes (and shoes), not the clothes (shoes) that make the lady Really not much more I can articulate RG

I just hate the way my butt looks in a swimsuit LOL RG :-)

RG :-) Additional Comments: I Hope I Never Get This Old

You know, there is a saying to the effect about walking a mile in someone else's shoes. You never really know someone else's story, what he/she has gone or is going through. Some are able to cope with the stressors of life, some others unfortunately have demons and can't cope. Let's not stand in judgement here, she may have had talent but it's her demons that defeated her, and thats sad and the tragedy RG

Samantha Your post is well said. And this last paragraph is bang on. Every life lost is a loss, whether the loss is through self destructive behaviour or the actions of another. Enough said RG

You know your old when you run through the channels before turning into bed, "Munich" is on (about the 1972 Munich Olympic massacre), and you can remember watching the real events sadly unfolding on tv. On a more lighter note, before she was a real big star, you can remember watching the Sonny and Cher Show on tv. RG

Thanks Shortcake for the PM on where to drop off soaps/shampoos etc. And the one place isn't all that far a drive from where I live. RG

Amy Winehouse, the people in Norway, and a multitude (unfortunately) of other people daily lose their lives. The tragedy is that a life is gone, and once gone, won't be back. And for all the lives lost, they had family and friends who feel that loss. So I'll offer condolences RG

You know, laugh at it, but it wouldn't be half bad as an ice fishing rod RG

Condolences on the passing of your friend RG

You asked for it, pm sent RG

It's a tragedy that someone's life is gone at such a young age. While we can assume it is attributed to substance abuse, nevertheless it is a human life gone. Condolences to her family, friends and fans RG

Sophia Well I'll start collecting and do some checking around. Even if no transition houses in my little town I'll take a drive to the nearest city and drop some off there RG

Don't know if this cools you down or heats you up http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLLm7GJ9uAw RG

It didn't even take me 5 seconds to know that that isn't my cup of tea RG

What a jerk. Even if he was a newbie, and doesn't know that it's inappropriate to come up to a SP in public, once you said not interested, he should have ended it, instead of continuing to follow/harass you. You handled it well, this guy, needs lessons on common sense manners and courtesy. RG

That was wrong, and gross, on so many levels Nuff said RG

Never really thought of it. There are no woman's shelters that I know of where I live (I'm in a small town) but any ladies I see for an outcall are more than welcome to take the soap/shampoo from my room after the encounter, either for a shelter, or for their incall location RG

I'd like to thank Cat for her post, distinguishing between a "john" and a client. I find that the arguments used to argue against prostitution are based on ignorance and stereotypes, not on rational arguments. In my experience, the encounters have been mutually beneficial. In a few cases, I had to provide references, in a few others, not just references, but verification to the ladies I wanted to meet. Although it has been quite a few years now, I don't recall in my conventional dating days where I needed such scrutiny to go out with a woman. In fact, not one of the conventional dates I ever went on did I ever need any sort of reference/verification/vouching. Really, seeing escorts in a lot of cases requires being more scrutinized than conventional dating. I won't touch on abusive relationships/marriages, it seems to have already been done. The tragedy is that it is the ugly little secret that there isn't the same political will to deal with. I certainly hope I'm a client, not a "john". In one case, the lady and myself are friends. A few ladies know my real name. And even those ladies who did not request/require verification, well if asked I would have provided it. None of the ladies I've seen I'm embarrassed or ashamed of seeing. And to intersperse a thought here. I haven't met a prostitute/whore or hooker in the time I've been involved with this lifestyle. All I've met are ladies This, in my opinion, is more than just a matter of semantics. But to call and/or view the ladies as prostitutes/whores/ or hookers allows someone to marginalize and view ladies as less than people, and not deserving of any rights or respect. But a lady is a real person, someone's mother/sister/daughter, and all ladies deserve respect. I hope this is coming out right.
