EagerBeaver, I see where your nick comes from! lol!
Actually, I will be traveling this summer, likely to eastern europe for a couple of months, so I'm not on a hurry to find a replacement here yet. Maybe in the fall. Plenty of very pretty girls over there, many of whom will do freebie if you're a decent man.
Count Vlad, does it really matter? If you get a decent deal, with a decent girl, that is less mechanical and more friendly than with an SP. I agree you loose some variety, but sometime gain back in intensity.
I just started this thread to share my experience, see if others had similar, and discuss the differences/advantages/trade-offs of this business model.
