Just wanted to let all you HTFD area mongers know that Craigs List now has a Hartford section. Let the mongering begin!

Mr. W

Thanks for the Tip Mr Waterbury, but I can't find the info there.

Can you provide some specifics.

Thanks!

Craigs List???

Craig's List is a very simple online people bulletin board. No cost.

People put up ads or communicate about needs, services, stuff to sell, tickets to give away, surrogate boyfriends for a prom, roomate requests, travel buddies for spring break, etc.

The fun part is that Craig's list gets real spicy. In large city areas you see requests similar to what you'll find in the back of the hartford advocate. Again...its free.

More over...lots of opportunity for gratutitous hookups are available through it. If your travelling alot, its very fun and sometimes useful. I got a small hookup some many months ago while visiting DC for a company trip. Yet there are lots of "interesting" requests as well. Horny housewives seeking to meet a certain type of male for fantasy stuff...or even 20 something year olds wanting to get there cherries popped gently...stuff like that.

Its a big college thing right now.


The Hartford link for Craigs list is interesting but no real content just yet. (Its been up for 2 or 3 month now, I think.) Starting putting content out there and believe me...it will grow.

The Hartford Craigslist has existed for several months, but you had to manually type in the url. There were no links from other cities or directory. So there were a very small number of posts. On Friday they turned on the links and in most categories the number of posts have trippled in the last couple days. Still has a ways to go but it's growing strong.

It says Hhartford but the nearest alts are NYC, Providence and Boston, so effectively it's for all of CT and Springfield.

Greetings All,

Any good strip joints to go to in Hartford? I'll be staying up near the airport a few days this week.

Thanks to all in advance.

Late last night I saw HPD pulling over vehicles on Lisbon and Groton. Luckily my 2004 Caddy has the latest version on OnStar with the cloking device and I was able to discreetly leave the area.

Did it look like big time pulling cars over Gordon or just random? City starting to move families out of Dutch Point. Will start to tear down first builings in a couple months. Enjoy it while you can.

HTF POLICE PRESS RELEASE

(Hartford) - In response to numerous citizen complaints regarding prostitution activities in their neighborhoods, on Monday, June 1, 2004, members of the Hartford Police Department's Vice & Narcotics Division conducted a city-wide undercover enforcement detail targeting street level prostitution in the Wethersfield Avenue, Stonington Street, Wyllys Street, New Britain Avenue, Broad Street, and Asylum Hill areas of the city.

As a result of the Vice & Narcotics Division operation, the following nine (9) individuals were arrested and charged with Prostitution:

T R, DOB 5/14/81, of Garden Street, Hartford.
T W, DOB 1/7/64, of No Certain Address.
M H, DOB 9/26/77, of Park Terrace, Hartford.
C J, DOB 12/03/63, of Farmington Avenue, Hartford.
D N, DOB 9/11/78, of Methuen Street, Springfield, Massachusetts.
A O-H, DOB 11/27/69, of Dutch Point, Hartford.
K J, DOB 12/28/85, of Sigourney Street, Second Floor, Hartford.
L T, DOB 12/16/73, of Ely Place, Simsbury, Connecticut.
E R, DOB 2/5/69, of Marshall Street, Hartford.
In commenting on the detail, HPD Vice Unit Supervisor Sergeant Franco Sanzo stated, "Our residents have spoken loud and clear through the numerous complaints we have received concerning street level prostitution in our neighborhoods. Anyone seeking to patronize or participate in this illegal activity in the City of Hartford should be put on notice that they are placing themselves at serious risk of arrest."

Monger, it is hard to say if it was random or not. I did not stick around to see what was going on.

It appears that citizen complaints an an neighborhood groups are being heard this spring.Monday night appeared not to be random an planned well in advance. Im surprised only 9 arrested. If past is any measure we can expect a second follow up in two weeks. The 30 YO from Simsbury is the SW with the Red Sox cap who started working Weth Ave last month I believe.
Hartford is a shrinking SW market an when DP closes it will be even dryer. All the strip clubs gone but one. All the MP gone. Seems like about 10% of what it was in total 8 years ago.
Can you imagine how dry this state would be if Bridgeport an Waterbury met similar fates an crackdowns?????

Can't be drier than Massachussetts, I suppose.

Games will shift, thats all. You cant beat economics...supply and demand. The problem is if demand shrinks...which in some ways has due to fear. Hartford is doing a great job in that regard. Pawlina? Maybe. Perez? Maybe. Hats off to them if it is so.

A change in guard will be happening across the country soon. Lets see how that impacts the HFD.

With the hammer smash in HFD, action will simply move, imo. No real solution but immediate gratification. Action will move gently back into the burbs.

FYI for those who do advocates. Had an excellent time with Timora Lee, the Phillipino. Recommended. Her info listed is pretty accurate. No BS, sassy, smart. Not quite GFE, but its all good. (IMO, GFE requires maturity. She's young (18 or 19). Too young for a real GFE.)

Cruised around the city a couple of nights ago looking for some relief. Few sw's around, setteled for Wanda on Ashley. $20 for bbbj and covered doggy at her place.

Stoner,

What sort of $ with Ms. Lee? Did you go to her place? Details please. This sounds good. Which Advocate? I'll ahve to hunt one down now. :)

Thanks,

BCB
