Slow due to monger arrests
[QUOTE=F Blaster; 1192403]Came into town with low expectations after reading the board, so I can't say I was too disappointed. The action is the worst I've ever seen it in Seattle.
DP was an absolute ghost town. Made several attempts during the weekend, and there was nothing. Granted, I don't like to cruise during "prime" hours, but it was completely empty.[/QUOTE]LE has been very active against the mongers. Check out the KCJR. 6 guys got popped last night vs 1 SW. Usually it is the other way around. Be careful out there guys.
Re: Things I've often wondered about SW's.
[QUOTE=Silver Wraith; 1188943]I know there are some obvious answers to these, but still I puzzle sometimes. Call me stupid.
1. Why do they so frequently stroll in areas where there's absolutely no discreet way or place to get their attention or pick them up?
2. Why do they always wear pants? Wouldn't skirts or dresses make everyone's lives easier? They wouldn't have to be obvious or slutty looking, just something that allows easier access than the usual tight jeans? Seems this is the norm in some places, perhaps it's just a climate / comfort thing, or perhaps it's to discourage FS as they'd just rather do quick BJ's and get on to the next one? [/QUOTE]I don't pretend to have the answers, but I've had a lot of time to think about these things while cruising.
1. My guess is that the ones who are new to town, or working here temporarily, haven't figured out that Aurora has long stretches where there's no place for a car to stop for a pickup at all, let alone be discreet, and that for most of its length is hard to make a turnaround.
2. This isn't southern California. It's chilly here! Even on warm days, Seattle evenings get cold. It's the maritime location, I suppose.

How are Things Out There?
I haven't been a part of this game in quite a while due to other commitments. I do have to drive Aurora from Everett to South Seattle at least twice a week but haven't noticed anything out. Looks like they closed up the street action pretty good in Seattle, has anyone noticed anyone noticed any new strolls? I don't really get to play anymore but I do like to go out and look once in a while.
Beautiful Spring Day. 70 degrees, Blue Sky's and Zero Hookers
WTF!
Really?
3. 4 years ago a night like this there would be a dozen or more SW out on a night like tonight.
BaaaaHummBug!
City plans crackdown on prostitution near Seattle Center
From [url]http://www.queenanneview.com/2011/05/26/city-to-crackdown-on-prostitution-near-seattle-center[/url]
City officials may soon be cracking down on prostitution activities in the stretch of land just east of Seattle Center – the area known as 'The Track' along Mercer between 5th Ave N, Lenora, and Westlake, which has become a prime target for gang activity and recruitment into prostitution, according to a report by SeattleCrime.
Documents from the City Attorney's Office, obtained by SeattleCrime, indicate that officials are interested in creating a new Stay Out of Area of Prostitution (S. O. A. P.) zone in the area.
From SeattleCrime:
The S. O. A. P. Zones allow courts to require people charged with prostitution to stay out of high-prostitution areas–primarily around downtown–while they await trial or following their release from jail.
The city already has seven S. O. A. P. Zones set up around town. According to the report, officials would remove the zone around E Pine to Pike from 10th Ave to 9th Ave, and create a new zone around The Track, where several gang members involved in pimping young women were arrested last year.
Staff from the City Attorney's Office are scheduled to appear in front of a judge to ask for the S. O. A. P. Zone expansion on Friday. We'll keep you posted as we learn more. You can read the full story at SeattleCrime.
