Looking for old buddies in the 'hobby'

I have lots of those hard floppy disks with those ladies pics, but no way to convert them. Be happy to share if someone has the equipment or attachments to pull them up..

Man what great times those were..

OMG !!! I so miss the old days..big time , I got my start at Cherries / Hollywood of houston and Chasity..The nest Parties Movie nights ..wow the memories and Peacefull one ..and of course Kindredkind ..

Nobody bagged more tail than the LoveDoctor back in the day...Nobody, now there is another poster I haven't heard from in a long time. Heard from PopeJimmy a while back. Good guy.



Finally someone telling a tad of the real back story.

ASPD's (and the so called glory days) demise reinforces the simple truth of : ''Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered.''


While I liked many of the players/posters back in the day, I have never before or since met so many people so oblivious to LE. Originally Posted by WTF

Hey WTF, great to see you still around! And I can vouch for that LE part, anyone remember how many years it's been since the Christmas Raid? You'd think getting busted I'd remember but I honestly can't remember the year!

I also remember Monica Fox & the hilarious threads about not taking a shit during a session at her place.

Dear John & Maj Tom - Wasn't Kelly the booker at Yours Tonight? I always thought Amber owned it and Kelly Booked the appointments.

I'm not sure about who booked. When I wanted to see one of Ambers girls, I just gave Amber a holler and she set it up.

I seem to remember Ryder doing something for her, maybe booking, but I'm not totally sure.

What a lot of people do not realize is that almost nothing came of the Christmas party bust. Nothing was happening so vice pulled the trigger early. They told everyone but a hand full to just go home, did not even bother to run people through for priors which should tell you something right there. A couple of girls were picked up for being illegals while those who contested their charges ended up them being dropped. I did not hear of anyone being convicted of anything.

Kelly had a "circuit girl" business that worked out of a notel on Beltway 8 south of Westheimer. It was hit or miss, but when it hit, it was awesome.

Her and Amber got together (I don't know how)

BL you have missed the point. People's pictures were on the news. Providers were outed. It was too Public! Privacy is central to everything we do in the Hobby on both sides of the fence.

You are dead on, BigLouie. Remember the multiple transport vans they had parked outside. They thought they were going to make a big haul because (I believe) a certain "informant pirate" had given them all sorts of info that they would.

ASPD was set up by a former member (probably re-registered with an unknown handle) hoping to wreck it and take over with his own group. He fucked up a party for us, but did not wreck ASPD - Amber's death did that.

What a lot of people do not realize is that almost nothing came of the Christmas party bust. Ahh, but it should have been a valuable lesson. Nothing was happening so vice pulled the trigger early. They told everyone but a hand full to just go home, did not even bother to run people through for priors which should tell you something right there.

I disagree, BL.

1) 10-11 people were hauled downtown, displayed on the news, and several women (+ 1 guy) were exposed in the Houston Press with real names, mug shots, etc.;

2) As to the women, most pled out, and only 2 fought and ultimately had charges dropped. At least 2 that pled out were smart enough to have their records sealed/expunged - later.

3) Some that weren't arrested were patted down and questioned; others were seen on news report;

4) Those that were "told to go home" had to 1st endure shaking in their boots, for what seemed like 10-15 minutes, with masked Vice officers telling them to neither speak nor move. Sure they went free in the end, but it was not a pleasant experience I'd want to repeat.

5) You are correct that they didn't yield near as many busts as they had hoped, but the indictments against those they did arrest were quite lengthy and detailed. To say "nothing was happening" is myopic, because if half the conversations detailed in the indictment took place, enough was happening for their purpose - or so they thought. You may not have been approached but many were. I'll leave it at that.

"...nothing came of the Christmas party bust..."

Sad to hear, because what should have been learned is (to name a few):

1) If you advertise a party on a public SHMB, together with a blueprint on how to obtain an invite, some "unintended" guests will be invited - especially with enough advance notice;

2) A handful of those that don't get invited get their panties in a wad and may garner info about the whereabouts from those who did;

3) If anyone believes a large group of hooktards and fucktards will ALL follow rules about what may or may not take place, they are beyond naive;

4) Inviting people you don't know personally nor vouched for by a trusted friend who does increases risk factor;

5) Inviting fucktards based on vouch of a hooktard 1st verified a 1-2 weeks earlier based on reviews by unknown newbies is also a blueprint for failure.


But, that's just me....


EDIT: Thank you, Rifleman, for saying what I should/could have in a few concise words. Wish I'd seen before I posted.

What's CDB up to these days anyway?
