I know its high. With the K so close, why go for something that looks over priced? I'm always suspicious of ads like that. Sounds like a setup.

Craigslist removes adult services section
Craigslist removes adult services section after attorneys general urge shutdown

Christopher Leonard, AP Business Writer, On Saturday September 4, 2010, 3:01 pm EDT

Craigslist closed the adult services section of its website Saturday, replacing it with a black bar that says "censored," just over a week after a group of state attorneys general said there weren't enough protections against blocking potentially illegal ads promoting prostitution.

The listings came under new scrutiny after the jailhouse suicide last month of a former medical student who was awaiting trial in the killing of a masseuse he met through Craigslist. Critics have likened the services to virtual pimping, while Craigslist maintained the site was carrying ads even tamer than those published by some newspapers.

Like many other free online forums, Craigslist typically does not review ads before they are posted by users. But in 2008, under pressure from 40 state attorneys general, Craigslist began requiring posters to provide a working phone number and pay a fee for placing an ad in what is now the adult services section. Several months later, Craigslist adopted a manual screening process in which postings are reviewed before publishing.

State officials believe Craigslist is still not doing enough to stop illegal ads from appearing.

The company said Saturday it would issue a statement on the matter, though it didn't say when.

Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal, one of the 17 attorneys general who pressed for the change, said in a statement that he welcomed the change and was trying to verify Craigslist's official policy going forward.

In an Aug. 24 letter, the state attorneys general said Craigslist should remove the section because it couldn't adequately block potentially illegal ads promoting prostitution and child trafficking.

Authorities point to the case of 24-year-old Philip Markoff as a prime example of the dangers posed by Craigslist services. The former medical student was accused of killing a masseuse he met through the hugely popular classified advertising site, which was founded by Craig Newmark. Markoff committed suicide in the Boston jail where he was awaiting trial.

Craigslist's adult services section carried ads for everything from personal massages to a night's companionship, which critics say veered into prostitution.

Craigslist's CEO Jim Buckmaster said in a May blog posting that the company's ads were no worse than those published by the alternative newspaper chain Village Voice Media. He cited one explicit ad which included the phrase: "anything goes $90."

Multitasking...who said it was just for women, huh? Anyway, I was about to hit Craigslist to see what might tempt my fancy, and what do I see? The former Erotic page, which then turned into Adult Services, is now CENSORED! Oh well. Looks like I won't ever have a reason to hit THAT site now.

Pour some liquor out. It was fun while it lasted.

There's always backpage.

E European broad answers the phone, "Have pretty Polish and Swedish girls today." price $100 for session. Directs me to 1211 Vine. Door code 104 (there is supposedly another room on 2nd floor). Building was open so I entered and looked around for 104. (stay to left, pass knee wall, door on right.) No bell, so i try the door. It opens, to a 10 x10 room. Girl in some red outfit, says she is Polish. There is a metal framed cot on the floor with a pad on it, she prepares it as i strip. I feel something on my back and later realize it is handi-wipes. She is wiping my back and legs with handiwipes. She then begins a mediocre back massage, not the worst I've had but not the best by far. Massages the back and back of legs assiduously avoiding the larges muscle group, the gluteus. After about a half hour of this I find her leg pressing against my hand, I stroke her leg and up her butt. OK, sir that's it, I hope you enjoyed your massage.

Dressed and left. Now if only I had gone to Fun City instead.

Maybe a prankster or worst yet someone looking to rob you, that is what I thought of when I saw the same email and they didn't want to give a phone number. I thought it might be a set up for a robbery. I offered to meet her at the Carlyle and she said no come over here.
