I was surfing the web, and came across this article about a reporter going on some real dates with escorts. From Broward Beach New Times news.

Thank you for sharing that story : )  I enjoyed reading it very much, and I like how it's showing yet another perspective of the hobby... : )

The majority of the people who post or read this discussion board tend to stay away from the Craigslist scene, and I think that this story painted a lovely picture of a sweet girl who may have a different doctrine of business than the girls who post 'here' : )  

In the article, she says that the most successful girls are the girls who post their ads all day long ,over and over, on Craigslist...  : )  Hmmm... I think that she and I will have very different definitions of the word 'success', but she is doing her own thing, and based on the article, it sounds like she has a pretty good head on her shoulders : )

Reading this article makes me want to go bowling soooooo much!!!  : )  I'm actually a good bowler, but it's been about 8 years since I've bowled for real (no offense to native New Englanders, but candlepin isn't my preference)... I like the big balls and pins : )

~Grace : )

In the story, the women had relatively good levels of intelligence, and I think that they may have had rough paths,  but their ability to learn and grow is aparent at the end of each individual mini-biography : )

~Grace : )

Proofreading, and 2 spelling mistakes fixed...

Shoullders will change to Shoulders, aparent will change to apparent : )

My take on the story is as follows- you should do this in your SPARE time, PIN her when the time is right and avoid this scenario if it not up your ALLEY?

Thank goodness you did not have the BALLS to say STRIKE when the iron is hot.  But then TURKEY, I know your mind is not totally in the GUTTER, but is SPLIT and might RETURN if allowed to follow the right LANES.

SCORE one for you foody, you seem to be in the right FRAME of mind

The real life story that really sets the stage for the other mini stories within.  Just goes to show every one is different and the job is still fraught with hazards.
