The sowboys are riding HARD again up and down left and right 34, corralling the herd; some laidies jumped in the wrong wagon and got a free ride to 49 shelter. I don't know; it might be community servicing- whenever the temperature drops some boys heat it up and stalk / pick up the walkers, so they don't catch a cold.
[QUOTE=TastersChoice;2275451]REALLY?
The lesson to be learned is that the scum she calls or called friends did this to her. Yet she is still in the game. Same players. Same so-called friends. Fucked up it IS! I learned a lesson from being a captain. I am no longer a captain. I simply enjoy the cruise. I learned a lesson. Keep doing what you're doing. Keep gettin what ya got.
BTW, saw her today on 34th st near the Cocktus motel. 2 blocks away was uncle with eyes on.

Hello everyone.
I had my first stroll last night around 9 and I want to thank everyone who posts on here for helping to guide a newbie even passively. I was just making a abbreviated run on my way home. I swept down haines and 19 and saw nary a soul. I headed behind the King and there she was. Cute little SW walking towards me wearing a dark blue sweatshirt and pink backpack. Looked mid 20's and reminded me of a girl I knew in the service. She gave me the look and I almost stopped right there but you guys taught me better and I drove around the block a cpl different ways scouting for my abusive uncle but with no sign I tracked her back down and offered her a lift. As a side note she made a bee line for me when she saw me pull back up and I'm not sure if that should be a red flag or not. Anyway she gets in and LEO check and I am nervous as hell. She asks if we want to go somewhere but did I mention I was nervous? I opt for a rolling CBJ for. 2 and hand her the cover and she goes to work. Now ill be honest it could habe been the most lackluster performance ever and I'd still have popped because you know. Nervous. Either way it wasn't amazing but I certainly enjoyed it. We finished and I dropped her back off.
Sorry I spaced kinda hard and didn't get name or digits but ill try harder next time. As an aside I would be in the debt of anyone who could pm me and tell me of any relatively safe spots to park in that area or at least tell me what to look for.
Keep your powder dry.

I'll be back to St Pete for business for a few days. My last time there was in June of this year and I found a nice blond with bubble butt and I had a great time. I forgot her name but I remember that she had a Tattoo on her neck with the name of Michael (or something like that). Any of you know of who I'm talking about? Is she still around? Thanks
Saw 2 of our toothless suction machines today. First thing this morning, saw Marie(used to sit under Banyan tree at 20th and 34th) walking north on 34th near Sundaze motel.
Then later in day saw Melissa (on the wings of a Snow White?) strolling north on 19 heading towards Hess. Now, don't bother telling me how skanky she is, but I can't resist the gum job, looks don't matter to me. I just love that true suction. Took her to quiet spot and enjoyed the moment. She sucks till you say quit. Dropped her off near Candlelight and gave her .25 and a pack of 305's.
Melissa is a sad sight but the gum job is every bit as good as Gibsonton Judy.

Aka Pamela who would have been on or near 34th Street probably between McDonalds to the New Plaza area? She has a 'Michael L' tatoo on her neck and he was her former stalker bf. She is out of action for the time being. She's about 5'8" with light brown hair and blue eyes. I don't remember if she dyed her hair blonde during that time frame. Last time I spoke with her she was trying to get her waitress job back at Bradley's Bistro?
[QUOTE=Xiao Xing;2276856]What is your opinion on this type of false claim by SW?
XX.[/QUOTE]
I make very clear to the lady what my expectations are for both money and performance. We negotiate and I make certain we have a reasonable understanding and agreement. If she seems too pushy or troublesome, I send her out the passenger door before long. I've sent more than a few packing and would rather do that than waste my time with half-azzed service from an angry or troubled worker. If I think a lady might be trouble, I pass her and look for someone else. The last 'false rape'threat i got was years ago from a certain Heather in Clearwater. I threw her azz out in an alley and NEVER scooped her again. She was a severely disturbed and angry b#tch that day and I regretted even letting her dumb azz in my vehicle! Barbara aka Barb from Haines got tossed out a few years ago as well. She didn't claim 'rape', but she was so drunk and acting so stupid that I bounced her 2 blocks after the scoop. When they've got that much drama, I send their azzes back to their mama!
Has anyone seen her lately? I'm wondering if she skipped town to avoid her problems. Looked on the county website and she's not listed as being a guest. Her phone goes unanswered.
Anybody have info?
Thanks

I saw Lexi yesterday walking north on the East side of 34 by the Relax. She is crashing in a room there with her slug James.
She looked awful. I mean like the walking dead. Super pale, 1000 yard stare, not even picking up her feet to walk, just dragging them. She never finished her meds from the last serious illness so I'm going to bet if she doesn't get to a hospital soon our sweet Lexi may be going to the other side soon. Dead before 30 just for the love of a high. Add her to that list like the last few. And you think with them knowing other people that have died from that exact thing they would be concerned. All an addict is concerned about is that next high. Period. And that goes for captining. Like has been posted, as long as they are using you are an ATM no matter the game played on you. The first one comes out of the bag is the love you.

[QUOTE=PeterRammer;2276129]That under no circumstances should anything like that have been done to her or to anyone else. Shit like that happens though particularly with the company some of these ladies keep. Being a worker is a dangerous occupation on a number of different levels.[/QUOTE]All I know is that is extraordinarily messed up. No one deserves that, regardless of their background, chosen occupation, bad habits, addictions, or anything else.

But around 5 AM I found long lost Samantha. She's 25 yo, 5'4" and 120 lbs with light brown hair. She had been keeping clean, getting her daily dose of methadone and working a straight job. A few days ago she went on a serious binge and was staying in Kristi Estates on 50th Ave and. That's right next (east of) the shit box dope hole cottages. Kristi had just thrown her out and I found her sweet azz wandering like a lost child on 50th Ave. I took her for her dose and brought her back to my monger cave where she performed like a python-starved gf. After a short nap, she awoke and was ready for round 2. Once again, she was like a dumbazz, but hottt gf. After that I took her azz back home to Pinellas Park because she was too anxious and my trouser snake was exhausted. She'll be back out again and likely at Gateway or Haines. Scoop her when she's wacked out and she'll be up for most anything. She had been working at Tribou's Tavern, but the fired her for missing work during her binge. Those of you that used to frequent Civitella's on 54th Ave might remember Kristi as the blonde waitress there?
I spoke with Leah aka Lisa earlier this morning and she's leaving the business. She cut loose her bf (he went back to Tennessee) and is presently detoxing. I wished her the best of luck and we had a nice chat. She has moved away from St Pete and is serious about wanting to change her life. It won't be easy for her and I'll miss her, but she's better off away from the game. For her sake, I hope she stays away, but my python wants her to give him a special tongue bath!
Saw kali about 10 ish this AM. Can't miss those tats and boots. I have to pass on her because she is 3 mos heavy. I will never knowingly support that situation with anything other than a meal.
Also saw Carlee. She; s not looking well. Sores on her face. Had to pass.
Off to hess area and saw a Heavy blonde huge bombshell w a nice perm. Looked like Dog TBH's wife. And you know who was spotted on 33rd.
All other areas. Didly squat.
Welcome to our newest poster.
Met Calina, a WSW on 9th ave and 34th st today. Said that she is 21 years old Italian American. Slim body with be+ resilient boobs. BBBJ is ok and FS is so so. Was after shower and smells good. No digits. May repeat if meet her again.
Xx.

The first one comes out of the bag is the love you.[/QUOTE]Need, in her mind, to support her useless addict bf. Therefore, she needs to make enough $$ for the pharmacy needs of at least 2 people. She refuses to jettison the worthless men from her life so that she can focus on her own individual needs. She's very much like a captain herself, but she refuses to cast off her troublesome cargo. A few days ago she promised me she'd go into the hospital, but I knew she only wanted her next dilaudid. She's on the verge of becoming a very negative statistic in a government chart; and that would be truly unfortunate.
I just got a call from Lexi and with her issues with legal problems she has left the St. Pete area where LEO knows her. She just went north a bit and have digits for senior members and she will be in the area on Thursday if you want to book some time w her.
So I took a stroll myself earlier today along the wicked 34th Street strumpet zone. I was probably out there about 45 minutes and I spotted 6 potential workers along my route. Most were a couple or more blocks away, but they were all out there for the picking. On my way back home to my monger cave I saw a really cute redhead across 34th Street. Don't know her name, but she was about 20 yo, 5'5" and seemed to have a nice figure. If I didn't have to get ready for work I'd have checked her azz out more thoroughly.
On another note; Samantha the python slayer should be around tonight. Looks like her mom tossed her out of the house and she needs a roof over her head. She promised me she wouldn't smoke anymore rock if I adopt her. LOL! IMO the friggin cow will jump over the moon before she drops the glass cock for good!

33 years old Ashley, a WSW, 5'1 tall was found at Hess. Standard damage for BBBJ and upgrade to FS. Her body looks like 23, years old with a good shape, rated 9. See cup resilient boobs. One of the best BBBJ I have ever had, rated 10. FS is 9. Attitude, 9.
Her phone is broken and got my digits and claims she will call me.

[QUOTE=Klawstetson;2274334]Last night I picked up a tall WSW on 34th street and 9th ave and. She said her name was Val. She's about 5'10 and built just how I like them, probably about 160 lbs, no belly, beautiful rear, and nice bee cups. The only thing I didn't like about her is she smelled of alcohol and she seemed just slightly paranoid. She was hardly in the car before she started grabbing and massaging my manhood and if she were not so good looking I probably would've been a bit bothered by how aggressive she was.
She didn't have a place so I suggested we find an abandoned building or dark parking lot, but she kept insisting we go somewhere with lots of cars and well lit, the worse place a monger wants to be. LOL. I unwisely acquiesced and we went to a freaking Publix parking lot. Now I was paranoid as hell. She was sooo hot though. She proceeds to give me a beautiful CBJ, so good in fact I started to only settle for that, but I desperately wanted more of her. So right there in the parking lot where 'shopping is a pleasure', she pulls off her pants, I pull down mine and proceed to give her one hell of a pounding (judging by how she was kissing on my neck and squeezing my back). So as I'm doing her I see a store employee walking in the lot looking for carts. At that point I had not reached climax, but I had to stop as it was getting too close for comfort. She gave me her number and I dropped her off. I'll definitely be calling her real soon. I have the impression she doesn't walk a lot as I know she said she works a regular job during the day, but I will ask her if its ok if I pass on her number.[/QUOTE]I've known her for some time, from our 9 to 5 jobs. Always thought that girl was built for sex. Spent some time with her last Friday, and glad I did. Didn't have to go though the " getting aquainted" period. Thanks for the prompt, Klawstetson.

Saw her few weeks back, tall just the way I like it. I had her number but not working any mongers have it to share?
Also if yall have any other tall ones and willing to share I've got some contacts I could share as well.
Things were slow everywhere, but there was action. As usual the best selection was on 34th from 5th to around 17th. Hess and Gateway were quiet, and Tina, Tammy and Brenda were in the Haines hillbilly zone. Also noticed Brooke out near McDonalds and she's a total waste of $. She's 30 something, from Charleston SC, has pot belly, rotten teeth and a wannabee db bf. She also thinks she's worth 40 for bbj, but she ain't worth a wooden nickle IMO.
Just after midnight all hell broke loose and St Peterammersburg po po all seemed to head for the Hess area. They were flying as if there was a big donut sale! It was actually a 3-vehicle crash which involved one of their own people. As always, when there's an officer involved accident, they are very circumspect and will do whatever they can to blame it on anyone but the po po!! Must have been about 30 + swarming piglets and that completely shut down traffic. Looks like it was a St Petersburg police lieutenant who was at fault himself. According to eyewitnesses, the po po pulled right into traffic without looking. He was looking for prostitutes and the dumbazz forgot to yield to oncoming traffic!! Stupid priorities of St Pete po po!! You know if you're a Yellow Cab driver and you cause an accident like this, you get FIRED!

We will all see this unfold now. This LEO was so taken into the game that HE got caught in his own trap, and hurt others as well. Most of us peeons know to be aware of our surroundings.
I was once tapped from behind coming out of a parking lot by a fellow monger who was eyeballing the same catch. I just let it go. Que sere sere. Se la vie, SE la Gehrig.
I recently reported about Dog TBH's wife and his fresh prem and you know who on 33rd st near this area.
Now, I have been the victim of burglary. I was told that there was nothing they could do to help me. It was in a high crime area with PLENTY of attention to the ladies. Man hour after man hour chasing the hooter girls, but nary a moment of time available to look after the tax payer.

He was so enamored / enthralled by the mysterious prostitute that he threw caution to the wind!! LOL!! He must be a seriously sexually-repressed fun fellow?? Last nights score was a devastating shutout: harlots 1, po po 0. The really ironic thing about this idiot was that the workers were back in action this morning just before noon. I was passing through in a work vehicle and counted 3 ladies walking right on 34th at the Hess. There are a myriad of unsolved homicides that could use some attention, but that requires intensive work and effort. Just another night in the anals of St Peterammersburg po po history.

My roommate forced me to pick up this lady who called herself "Shay" or something similar. We found her near 66th St and 54th Ave pretending to hitch hike.
Older lady. With her dress on, 6/10. Looked kinda worn out but no sores, track marks, etc. Probably pretty in her youth.
With her dress off. You ever see a lazy eye? Well she has a lazy bolt on. Hardest tits I've ever seen, one points down, the other up and to the left. Missing several teeth. She sounded normal until she laughed, and it was like nails on a fucking chalkboard.
She was friendly, willing, etc. But damn.
Just don't.
Don't.

No hobbyist or provider should seek to procure a person under the age of 18 for this hobby. The state and federal popo frown very strongly on this activity and vigorously pursue violators. As long as only consenting adults are involved, it is not considered as serious.
I know of another provider who mistakenly crossed this line and was sent on a state sponsored vacation. She went by the name Mikki and she got a year and a day. She is scheduled to return soon, you can verify this independently.
Roxanne two nights ago. Looked like she could go one way or the other in the shadow of the night. My luck, went south. Mid-40's, looked to have a nice rack. Deflated. Looked to have a decent ass. Deflated. Lot fatter than she looked stollin'. Typical yap yap about giving great skull, blah blah. Mediocre. Mediocre all around. Stays at LAQUINTA at 19 and Park. I hate to sound callous like this, but if you're looking for a wet hole to suck you off for 2. 5, this is it. Typical dollar general deodorant smell too. She'll even take her teeth out.
