A couple of west side warnings
First, east of Livernois on Mich Ave, picked up a SW just north of the ave just north on one of the first blocks. Knew as she approached the car she was a train wreck but thought I could get out of it gracefully. Lost my sauve after she was in the car. Noticed a box cutter in her right hand. I jumped out with the keys. Ended up giving her 0. 2 just to go away.
Second, SW came up to my stopped car near Woodmere begging for a ride. Knew she was a train wreck but one thing lead to another. Anyways when I stopped on a side street north of Woodmere, she grabbed the keys and ransomed for them another 0. 2.
Learned. Am more careful but things can still happen.
The 22 rules are pretty good but practice makes better not perfect. Risks from many angles LE, SW, STDs, Evidence in car, etc.
Wanted to contribute and had some questions.
So I spent about a month in Windsor, Ontario and snuck over to Detroit a few times; not long enough to really do much of anything. What's funny is, for years everyone's told me these horror stories about Detroit and Grand River Ave and at least when I was downtown, I saw nothing. It was like any other medium sized, older city that doesn't have a whole lot going on downtown. Windsor, on the other hand, kind of threw me for a loop. I was expecting (since the strip joints are a lot more risque) a much more 'live and let live' attitude more action, etc. Not much. Just a couple of adult entertainment spots downtown; a massage / sauna on one of the main streets downtown. But I got to ask the locals a few things.
In Windsor (or Detroit) are there a lot of fake storefronts? I did pass by a couple of places that had 'sauna' advertised on the outside but I didn't see anything or any posting of hours or anything. And no mention of it on here either.
Since I was mostly on foot (I took the Tunnel Bus over and back) and I never really saw 'those awful parts of Detroit'. Where are they? I had no problems finding my way around downtown, but there was nothing going on! I kind of wanted to venture into the neighborhoods, but didn't want to seem like someone from out of town so I didn't have the guts to ask the cab drivers (they seem to know everything) etc.
And (sorry to sound naive) does 'common sense' pretty much apply to Detroit? Is the crime rate really as bad as people say, or is it like other places where, if you're looking for it, you'll find it, and if you're just doing your own thing people pretty much leave you alone? I did get the sense that. I think it was near the Greyhound Depot (I couldn't tell if it was closed or still in operation. I just saw the sign) you could walk for blocks and see nothing besides boarded up buildings and houses. How far from downtown does this start?
Needless to say I didn't have any luck when I was out there, and I should have 'done my homework' before I left here. I have to say I was a little disappointed with the lack of selection or signs of life in Windsor. As I was leaving the guy next to me was saying that Toronto is a whole 'nother story completely but I didn't get a chance to go there.
Thoughts? Would like some local advice; I'm coming back to Windsor soon. Thanks guys.
Possible low tech solution
I've been reading about how some of the SW's will take your keys, and hold them for ransom, or set you up for worse. It occurs to me that this situation could be foiled fairly easily (or at least slow them down a bunch). How about outfitting your car with a supply of zipstraps long enough to fit through your keyring and around the steering column, and some dykes (wire cutters to remove quickly)? I realize that this won't work for all cars, due to design differences, but I'm thinking that you could think of some other way to keep this from happening. (Like maybe a duplicate set of keys) Only put your car keys on the ring that you have in the ignition. No house keys or other "important" keys. That way, she only gets a set of keys. If you're really concerned about it, after it happens, you can then DRIVE into the dealer / locksmith, and have the locks changed. A tire thumper (like the semi drivers use to check the air pressure in their tires) wouldn't be a bad idea either. Just don't get caught with it in the passenger compartment, as it could be construed as a "concealed weapon", if the cop wants to jack you up. Just my two cents worth.
Have fun. Be careful. Be safe.
Zipties, hookers and guns do not mix
I don't know what I'm reading here. Either the det SW thread on usasexguide or the newest script for dexter the tv show! A suggestion to all when dealing with a difficult SW, use common sense. If she looks high or you have a bad feeling about her. Just pass her by. Its getting cold out side with the economy not getting any better, the girls will get dumb and desperate. I'm sure the 22 rules has something in it for dealing with situations like this. Bad enough there are guys out there beating and raping girls, to turn around and find out we gave a ideal to the 21st century version of jack the ripper, will only make it harder on us all!
Besides she takes your keys, just throw her 20 and get the hell out of there!
Update-halo is in jail right now. Don't know where or how long (considering she has hiv, it might be months before it finally kills her) but she's off the streets.
Stay smart and stay safe
There is a reason I stay north of the Motor City; read my reports
But as usual I found myself in Detroit. In fact I was at Telegraph and 5 Mile, so I rolled down Fenkel where I used to have good luck scooping a date. I passed on rolling the triangle where I got my LIPIO ticket many moons ago from a UC dick. Sure enough there was a BSW along Fenkel east of Lasher. It was nice to know the ole circuit is still working.
But just before I found any girls, here comes Detroit's finest, LE, in a marked car. I recall dipping and dodging them a couple years ago. But the damn UC's are impossible to scope out for an out-of-towner. The few times I rolled thru and around the triangle it was thick with LE day and night.
Now, the point of this report, is to report a little north about 50-60 miles in Flint if you see a LE they usually keep on rolling leaving us mongers to do our thing, which is roll on until we find just what we are looking for. And up north I roll for 2-4 hours a day. There are always dates out and eventually, I find just what I want; without interference from LE.
Flint69, Merry Christmas to you too. Be safe and good hunting. MW
