I remember reading some of those ads and wondering if those ladies were as hot as they described or looked.
The first one I tried said she was a 38DD-25-36 redhead, when she arrived she was a 38DD, but the rest was at least 250 lbs.
3 months later, I still hadn't learned, and called a blonde named Lisa 38-24-36.  She arrived at my door and was beautiful and very nice. We had a nice time.  4 months later I called her again.  This time she showed up 1/2 hour late, drunk and stoned.
She was loud, obnoxious and wanted to smoke crack in my house.
It was a year later when I tried another ad (no, still hadn't learned yet)When the escort showed up, it wasn't the girl from the ad, but some real thin girl with no tits, and a flat ass, and gave the lamest blowjob I've ever had. She was thin, I couldn't even get my self to get hard to do anything.
Two more years went by, and I tried again.  This girl looked like a California beach blonde, tanned, slender and buxom. Real nice!  We had a good time!  Before she said good night to me she said call me anytime, but be careful about calling some of the escorts in the City Pages, most of them are junkies, alcoholics and creeps!!!
My good fellow, I took bruises so you don't have to.  Stay with the TER, get reviews, a picture and the tried and true escorts.
Just read the reviews.  The hobbyists have a code, we don't lie about good ass!!!

Jim, your experiences have happened to us all.  we are in the never ending search to get the best price and quality.  Somethimes we are not thinking with our top head and City pages/Tc Uncovered line ads gets the best of us.  Like I said in a post down below, she needs to have a picture, review or a great referral from someone.  

In my opininion, if you want to be generally disappointed; go with the line ads.

The number of the provider that is willing to bring her own crack?

She still advertises under her name, Lisa, and she lives in those apartments that you can see from Hwy 94 heading toward St. Paul, they've got colored patterns.  Not a very friendly or clean looking place.
But if you like that kind of thing, be my guest.  Be careful for the scorching case of venereal disease that she's supposedly has; I heard that from another provider.

if she is, she's under another name.  She gave me card with all her girls on it with their descriptions and services, but we are talking back in 1998.
