Actually, Amanda emailed me just recently as well. I don't know her, though, so I can't say what's up. I suspect we have very different styles of working. If she's real, I wish her all the best -- but I agree: she should go to Ottawa. Why worry about competition? Generally, the more...

Canada Post has a new policy re: money orders: http://www.canadapost.ca/business/offerings/supplementary_services_bus/can/money_orders_faqs-e.asp I'd be interested in people's thoughts on this. Myself, when I first saw it, I thought it might have something to do with fraud, as there's been a...

If my SO was doing what I was, we'd have a lot more money to pay bills with every month!!!! People have often asked me, "well, what if your husband did this?" To which my response is always, "get paid to spend pleasant time with members of the opposite sex? Where can we sign up??" ..c..

I don't know how much CL can really be trusted in the Ottawa market. Apparently someone is systematically flagging otherwise legit ads and having them removed. I only post maybe one or two ads a year on CL, and yet, the last couple I've posted there have been flagged for removal. Even though...

It's a personal choice, to be sure. If you're free to engage in casual or more formal relations with "regular girls" then by all means, I think you should go that route. But please consider that some may not have such freedom. For some guys, escorts are a solution to a problem that they...

Thanks for all the terrific info -- exactly what I needed! I think I'm going to try making up one (or a couple!) of these antennas. Looks simple enough. ..c..

(antennae??) We recently got rid of our cable TV at the apartment in town, and we're seriously considering ditching the satellite out on the farm. About the only TV programming we might need is Hockey Night in Canada, and so we're thinking of buying some TV antennas. Do we need the digital...

I dunno... the cost of everything, and food and fresh produce especially, is going up right now. There's a notion out there that fast food chains are cutting tomatoes supposedly out of concern for us -- but in the meantime, they're lowering their costs but not lowering their prices. Nice scam...

No need to wait -- Carrie's back in Ottawa and staying at my place this week. (I'm taking a much needed vacay.) It's great to see her and she always tells such funny stories. She stopped off to do a shoot for jerkygirls.com on her way into town -- cool site! Carrie Moon is one in a million...

Ultimately, racism or not, wouldn't any one of us prefer to see someone who feels comfortable with us? I'm reminded of the old joke about the union rep in Nevada. He goes to the first brothel and inquires about the financial arrangements. On being told that the house gets 70% and the girl...

It's pretty cool here -- lots of snow. Thank goodness we bought a freezer last year and, as such, don't need to go out for the next few days. I wished for lots of snow this year, as I do every year. I wished for snow from late November to mid-April -- and it looks like I'm getting it. (For...

Who knows what will happen just now. We've always operated under the assumption that the banks and lenders were honest and straight up -- lately that doesn't seem to be the case. From a purely honest standpoint, he should try to repay whatever money is outstanding and curtail his borrowing...

I would have thought so too, yet many SPs have told me that their lawyers have informed them that this ruling somehow affects us. It does seem to be a very different circumstance to me. Still, one wonders why we don't see LE enforcing incall laws more effectively. It would actually be better...

But the bawdy house charge does seem to cross something that has been held by legal experts for some time now -- since te bust and unsuccessful conviction of a swingers' club in Montreal -- that incalls can be indicted under bawdy house legislation. We'll have to see how it plays out. ..c..

That was about "underage hookers" -- no? ... or having read the article, I'm wondering if it wasn't a "traffic" issue. Anybody know? ..c..

This reminds me of something that happened at Parachute School of Toronto in Arthur in the early 1980s. A group showed up to make their first jump for the day. Among them was a young woman whose brother had made some jumps and who died in a base jumping incident out west. I'd just landed from...

I don't kow if this thread is a troll, but I do know that I worry about some of the overreliance on medications and therapy in young people these days. Our daughter went on antidepressants a couple years back. At the time, she was stuck in a very stressful job and was getting maybe 3 hours a...

So it goes! No matter what a woman manages to achieve or create in her life, some little men will still judge her on the basis of her appearance against women who are 20. She's probably crying at the bank over this. ..c..

But he's more honest with us than Greenspan or Bernanke, who seem to be nothing more than mouthpieces for corporate raiders. ..c..

I'm not sure that the legal situation is all that confusing at all. If you stand back and look at the forest, instead of trying to analyze the trees, it becomes clear. Prostitution is legal and/or tolerated in Canada AS LONG AS it doesn't present a real problem for anyone else...
