If she drops you that is really going to hurt!!! In the second video, the bed at the end almost looks like it's in a hospital ward. Makes you wonder!!!

I find it quite astonishing that this is going on. I've said it before, I don't know how you ladies put up with all this BS and yet are still able to even tolerate the presence of men!! You all deserve a medal!! Porthos

I'll go with Brooke this time. Sheryl Crowe Or Michelle Branch

I think the answer is yes, but I'll be damned if I know what it means!

That's a highlight??? Oh mightyfinn you should be in St.John's. Today was gorgeous and sunny. Walked around downtown, enjoyed a pint at my favorite pub. Everyone was out. It seemed like half the Island had taken thir motorcycles out of the shed and were enjoying that first ride of the season. Winter coats, boots, and rain gear thrown aside. Girls were out in short skirts, and even shorter shorts and men were gazing appreciatively. Cato my friend, you should have been here, as some of your favorite parts of feminine beauty were on display ... Long lovely legs and gorgeous asses. And since NL has proud Irish roots, there were lots of redheads out and about. A glorious day!

I'm surprised and disappointed to learn this. The rate question is always such a difficult one, and one that can probably be debated forever. From a client's perspective, of course rates matter. I have to judge what I'm prepared to pay for a particular experience. I also have to judge what my budget will permit me to spend. Factoring into all of that are such things as the lady's appearance (do I find her attractive and just how attractive), her reputation (recos on the board), her experience (how long she's been in business), what other ladies in the same market (both geographic and non-geographic) charge, etc., etc. All of this goes into my assessment of the experience and what it's worth to me (what I'm prepared/able to pay for it. For myself, I would absolutely agree that every lady should charge what she feels she is worth. Of course, whether that is a price the market will support is another matter. I do believe, however, that there is generally a suffient demand to accommodate a range of price points. What a lady charges is very much a way of identifying what type of clients she hopes to attract. (this very much relates to many of the posts in the overselling in adverts thread). I have never tried to negotiate rates, and simply won't. It's totally bad form. I also absolutely believe that a lady should never negotiate either and tell anyone who tries to take a hike. Having said that, there have been (and are) many ladies I would like to see but likely won't, as their rates are simply too high for my wallet. I would never suggest they charge too much ... But they do charge more than I can afford and/or am willing to pay for the experience. I wouldn't contact them to try to negotiate, I just won't be seeing them. Most likely I would never contact them period. There are also ladies who charge too little. The experience they offer is not one I'm interested in, and it's reflected in their rates (often found in some of the other advertising sites). There are, of course, some guys out there who define the experience they are looking for simply in terms of getting off for the least amount of money possible. That's not why I'm in this game and I don't want to see providers that cater to this market. If a lady is happy with her rates, and has the client base she wants/needs, then there is no reason to even be thinking about the issue. Stand firm and never negotiate. Also, these are meant as general thoughts on the matter, spurred by Christy's comments, but certainly not directed at her, or anyone in particular. I don't even know what Christy's rates are.

Can I choose both? Probably not so I'll go with Amanda Paige For the Heart fans ... Ann or Nancy Wilson

I'm old enough that the only club I think I'd be allowed in would be a bridge club. And there are no hot young things to be plied with booze at those. Seriously though ... I'd just feel embarrassed going into a club and would feel like everyone would be wondering about the perv! The only sort of club I'm likely to go to would have live music, preferably jazz! Porthos

I always find it odd how some really wacky conspiracies take hold. But people really do believe these things. I was in a Timmy's a few weeks ago, and had two people sitting next to me who were true believers. Sort of a strange mix of survivalist, extreme back-to-earth environmentalists. As they talked the conspiracies became wilder and wilder. The started off with why vaccines are bad for you and ended with the World Health Organization and pharmaceutical corporations deliberately starting pandemics and using populations as experiments. Along the way I learned what to do if the government shows up (which apparently could happen at any time) to put a chip in my head. The solution involves extreme violence. But these two really believed every word of it, felt they had irrefutable evidence. They really felt like they were under threat from sinister forces. their phones were tapped and agents of sinister global forces were following them. And really, it's all just hokum. Now the world being flat ... No denying the truth of that!

Spot that covered

I agree with this .... In general, as I said, I'd be willing to do it, but only where I was very confident of the lady's professionalism and integrity. Porthos

A wet, gray morning has turned into a brilliantly sunny ang gorgeous late afternoon and evening here in NL. Not a cloud in the sky, the ocean is shimmering like it was made of a 1000 jewels. Sitting on my deck, enjoying a beer, a bald eagle just flew past, and I'm now about to cook a fabulous meal of pan-fried cod for dinner. Life simply doesn't get better. I am at peace with the world!

Good one Bangles, Manic Monday

The gorgeous Lonna Lux will be visiting Ottawa at the end of the month. Half Brazilian if I recall, and absolutely fabulous. http://www.cerb.ca/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=87685&highlight=lonna I thought I read that Alex Grenyait has left the biz?? Porthos

Morris Fish's retirement will create an interesting situation. We'll see what Harper's next appointment will look like. Porthos

I wouldn't expect much help from the hypocritical and moralizing Sun. They'll probably run a series congratulating the police and vilifying the sex industry. They'll focus on run-aways and underage girls. Porthos

Cato, that last set is the stuff dreams are made of ...especially the top left one.

More Blair O'Neal

Generally I don't, but would if requested and I had made up my mind that I was definitely making a booking with the lady. That sort of request certainly wouldn't prevent me from booking.

Tori Black ... yummy! Blair O'Neal or Michelle Wie
