Streetwalker Reports

[CapeMay0069]

[QUOTE=TrueNoob 86; 1497319]Ok so I was advised to start my research on the hobby by reading the "22 rules for street mongering" and everyone's old post for information. Why I seriously thought that there would be a beginner's FAQ shows you how much of a noob I really am.

Yeah, go ahead and walk the stroll! Give up your power and protection to the streets. Head into some girl's crib or unknown spot she suggests. No problem there. Drug using girls are always Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean, and Reverent!

It seems like your desperate state has you looking for short cuts and nothing will stop you. After all what does the collective knowledge of this site really know? The heck with those stupid 22 Rules! Yeah, go for it! Dive in! You don't need no stinkin' education!

Er. Go rub one out, or two. My advice, again fwiw. Think with the BIG head before allowing the little one to steer you into the School of Hard Knocks.

Wow that's kind of a harsh response. I got into this 'hobby' back in 90, 91 I was in my early 20's and fresh out of the Marines, had no fears, no website like this and I will admit now that I look back no brains. I think back on the abandon blds, houses, and parks that I let SW's take me too I'm lucky to still be alive, But I will say this Philly is a different jungle now. The 'game' is pretty much the same but the rules and the arena have drastically changed.

My advice to you is you need to practice and build confidence. To this day I park and use the 'boots on the ground' method. To me it just feels safer then pulling over and picking up from a car with a license plate tied to your name and address. Now having said that these days I would not park on or near the Ave (or any hot spot in philly for that matter) AFTER DARK.

A / C is a great place to get your feet wet and to learn and hone your skills. The strip in AC is relatively safe at any time of night due to the amount people and traffic that is always there. It is here where you can learn to develop your 'monger senses', learn the do's and don'ts and feel out what your approach and limits are going to be and if you want to pursue this hobby / addiction.

Yes I said addiction, for a good part of the 90's mongering was a weekly thing for me, there were nights that I would blow a tank of gas going from one local to another to find what I wanted. Now 20 some years later I still have those urges, I have a slit cut in the carpet of my car and every greenback I can hide away goes there to I build up enough to take off work and go on a hunt.

Take it slow, take your time, and think before every move, above all safety first!

Does there seem to be an extreme lack of talent out on the K these days. The other day I was looking at some of the past lists compiled in the forums and there just doesn't seem to be anything talent wise like that out there now. I have always been very selective, my rule of thumb being, if she doesn't look good enough to be seen in a restaurant with (I. E. On a date) then she doesn't come back to my place, but I could almost always find a diamond in the rough. However, for the last couple months there just seems to be an extreme lack of talent. I mean, did the heroin supply dry up? Has the scene been moved? Is it just me, am I driving through at the wrong time (usually early evenings around 7 ish) , anyone with any thought? Anyone? Beuller?

I am thinking with my big head. I mean I'd rather ask stupid questions on the internet than go out and try to learn the hard way. Knowing myself, there is a chance that I'll never even get close to approaching anyone for a "date" I just stumbled onto all this information (the website / forums) and well being "young" I'm anxious maybe? And since I had an obvious (yet I still asked the question) feeling someone would say what you said, I'll stick to the strip club reports.

Well perhaps I was a bit too dramatic in my reply. My bad. You are right. Asking questions is fine and a good way to learn.

Good that one is thinking with the big head. That should serve you well!

Look, what I can tell from your posts is that there is some level of doubt and perhaps a bit of fear. All of that is normal and it becomes part of a mongers internal "radar" that he uses to stay out of trouble. I am sure others can tell stories about ignoring that radar and the consequences.

But what I do know from experience is that one needs to be able to hide or mask any fear, doubts or apprehension. The girls on the street can smell that a mile a way. Now while not all will act on it, many will eat you alive if they smell the fear.

So recognizing one's limitations is good. Nothing wrong with being young or new. Good to see you decided to take it slow. That makes a lot of sense. Wait until one is a bit more comfortable with the streets before wandering out there. Good idea. I have "forced it" in this hobby in the past, or gone places outside the comfort level and that often lead to trouble. So good for you.

Perhaps as one gains experience and has time to follow the SW threads, one will build confidence to wonder into that arena? Good luck!

BTW, there was some discussion on one of the Philly threads, in the last year or so, about mongering from a taxi-cab. Quite a lively discussion, if I recall. Bottom line was a control issue: give that control to a cabbie that might be as bad as giving it over to the streets as well. Also recall that the perspective of "on foot" mongering was also discussed. So no need to read the thread. What possibly could be there?

Look, we get a lot of noobies showing up TAKING. Asking for advice on one girl or another or asking questions and then never giving anything back. While I think most would be willing to be helpful, perhaps one needs to demonstrate something first? Nothing wrong with being new. Everyone starts there, but goodness, ain't nobody gunna tell you to avoid the 22 Rules.

That is unless I'm wasting my time here. Is there something frying in the pan next to the sunny-side eggs?

But I thought of something first. Is it even remotely wise and / or safe to "date" without a car? I can see the clear advantages (mobility, convenience, protection if used correctly) And I'm in a really sucky neighborhood so while I could probably find a SW without a problem, I'm lonely-ish (almost everything else you could think of to make one consider the hobby) but not that suicidal. Plus if the answer is no, I suppose I could go the strip club route.

Did not mean to stump the panel. Thanks for those who are from the seventies as I am and explained my meaning. Now can anyone finally exlain why my 8-track only has 4 channels?

8-track, now that's funny. Actually, I still own my 8-track recorder. Even back then blank 8-tracks were hard to find.

[Barry Manilow]

Barry Manilow sucked just as bad in both formats.

Tonsil Hockey,

I'm here at the Copa with Mandy who just waved me over. I thought she was tryin to get the feelin, like she usually does after a long show. Nope. This one's for you, she said, pointing to your post on the computer screen. Even now I can't tell you how devastated I felt when I read it. C'mon, Tonsil Hockey, I know you're just one voice out there but I'd like to get you back as a fan somewhere down the road. And poor Mandy can't smile without you. You're making our lives miserable, man.

Maybe we could spend a weekend in New England. You could watch the ships while I write the songs. Maybe something would click:

You: Man, I'm ready to take a chance again.

Me: Even now?

You: Yeah man, looks like we made it!

Me: Wow. Could it be magic?

Let's hang on. Have your girl call my girl,

Barry

I see we now have digressed into a discussion of audio systems of the past, instead of pussy-hunting. Gentlemen, please! (Although recounting the stuff we did in our youth can be very funny. That was back when we were all young and stupid. I'll have you know that we're NOT that young anymore!)

1. A 4-Track has only two programs,"Program 1", and "Program 2", and must be switched manually between programs.

2. An 8-Track has four programs, which would "program select" automatically when a metallic sensing strip contacts a switch next to the capstan. There was also a manual selector for purposes of changing programs.

3. 4-Track players sometimes had a fast forward option, which often tore the tape.

4. Each program has two tracks, a left channel and an right channel, to allow for stereo; more advanced 8-Track models had additional channel separation / discrimination capabilities used to process the more advanced quadrophonic stereo signals.

5. Barry Manilow sucked just as bad in both formats.

6. I wish that it was the 1970's again, and that I could lose my virginity another five times during the summer of 1978.

7. You had to jam a matchbook under both cartridges to stabilize them during rough rides.

8. Ralph "S", custom recorded radio programs which sounded like WIFI-92 on 8-Tracks, and after a certain predetermined queue (usually another song),"Go All The Way" by the Raspberries would magically come on. He was responsible for the deflowering of more people than any single human in world history.

I miss those days.

One very long word "In-A-Gadda-the-Vida" on 8-Track, classic.

Well TexTim. I'm sure that was a rhetorical question but I couldn't resist. 8 songs on the 8-Track versus 4 speakers in your 4-Channel (quadraphonic) stereo. Now I was just a tot in the 70's but that's my story and I'm sticking to it. Sorry to all for the brief lapse of off-topicness. Now back to work, all of you!

So, is BSW out and WOC in now?

[CookyJar]

CookyJar, I think he means a. Woman of Color.

If that's the case, I cannot help you Tim. The girl I had in mind is a WSW.

Tim,

I may be able to help you with this one. I am still running behind in my reviews. I will put a rush on this one. Give me a couple of days. I think it is the same girl.

BTW: What's a WOC. Someone should update the Abbreviation section.

CookyJar

Here is the funny part. I did pick-up a tiny little, cute as a button, BSW in that area. But! She would not allow photos. No, to pictures is a deal breaker for me. She did have some very nice natural boobs and claimed to have no kids. From what I could see, she had a very tantalizing body to go along with her cute face.

I jumped to conclusions because I recently met a cute WSW who goes by the same name.
