I walked into San Geraldo’s office Thursday afternoon and he told me he was researching the differences between escorts and prostitutes I asked if he was looking to make some money and wanted to know what wouldn’t get him arrested. But then I thought maybe he was trying to decide which he should hire. It turns out it’s part of the book he’s writing about his life. Obviously, it’s a tell-all.
The photo at top was taken from the car as we drove through the town of Alhaurin de la Torre on our way back from our favorite garden center. More on that to come.
I learned the other day that a lethal dose of chocolate is 22 pounds (10 kilos; 1 stone 8 pounds). I should be OK.
Entré a la oficina de San Geraldo el jueves por la tarde y me dijo que estaba investigando las diferencias entre acompañantes y prostitutas. Le pregunté si buscaba ganar algo de dinero y quería saber qué no haría que lo arrestaran. Pero luego pensé que tal vez estaba tratando de decidir a quién debería contratar. Resulta que es parte del libro que está escribiendo sobre su vida. Obviamente, es revelador.
La foto de arriba fue tomada desde el coche mientras conducíamos por el pueblo de Alhaurín de la Torre de regreso de nuestro centro de jardinería favorito. Más sobre eso por venir.
El otro día supe que una dosis letal de chocolate son 10 kilos. Debería estar bien.

I’d say the cats summed up the differences quite nicely!
Steve:
They always do. It’s comical.
I was in New Orleans, out for my early morning walk as I often do when I am awake early in a new city. A Jag pulled up, the window buzzed down, and she simply asked, “looking for a good time big boy?” I chuckled and said, “no thank you, I am just out for a walk, You have a nice day!” She replied, “you too sweetie” the window slipped up and she eased away into the morning fog of the Big Easy. Somehow it strangely boosted my ego to be asked.
David:
When I first moved to Boston, I lived around the corner from the Symphony. Hookers worked early mornings there and I would receive friendly greetings. Once I was asked if I played on sunny days. I told her I worked on sunny days, but thanks.
So, San Gerlaldo has a past???? Interesting!
Thanks for The Boys and their punims today; I needed a pick me up!
Bob:
San Geraldo has a past! Oh the stories he can tell. He shocks our friends.
I was asked by one of Soho’s working girls once if I “wanted a good time”, so I said “you’re barking up the wrong tree, dear – maybe your brother?”. Quick as a flash she ran off to fetch some scruffy ‘erbert who looked like he needed a good scrub. Needless to say, I declined.
Also in Soho, there used to be a diamante costume jewellery emporium called O My God we used to frequent. It was so-called because that’s exactly the exclamation everyone made when they set foot in that blindingly sparkly little shop! Gone now. We miss it. Jx
Jon:
I would love O My God. Wish we had a shop like that around here.
Wowzee dooo, that photo of Dudo the Escort is wonderful to look at. You have such a good eye for the beauty of shadows… thanks for treating us!
Judy C
Judy C:
I love the aloe vera shadows in the hall. I wish Dudo would cooperate more. If I walk over for a better angle, he walks away.
Boud here wondering if he was writing about his travels in a Ford Escort? No?
Boud:
No, Ford Escort, but he DID have a Rabbit, which is somehow more appropriate.
I had a lemon yellow Rabbit diesel.
David:
When we met, SG drove a red Rabbit.
Beautiful photo of cat and shadows.
So- what IS the difference between an escort and a prostitute?
How in the world can the lethal dose of chocolate be determined?
I’m curious.
Ms. Moon
Ms. Moon:
Oh, just hire an escort and find out. They’re both about sex, but an escort will also do well for special events (looking more like a date) and vacations. Julia Roberts played a prostitute in Pretty Woman but I’m pretty sure Richard Gere’s character treated her like an escort. The British show QI shared that statistic. I trust everything they say… until they correct themselves.
A lethal dose of chocolate is 22 pounds? Amateurs.
Debra:
That’s what I thought. But my limit, so far, has been perhaps 3 pounds.
You mention Escort, prostitute and looks who pops up!!!!! Now im intrigued.
And Moose is getting practice…for a prostitute… Advertising the wares.
Mistress Borghese:
Moose is a true pro. He doesn’t just practice. He perfected it. San Geraldo has a very colorful past.
How can 22 lbs pounds of chocolate be lethal??? In metric that would be 9.9 kilos not much really. If SG is writing a tell all book, is the publisher taking reservation on launch date? SG is the mysterious one in this blog.
Jan from Perth:
This is according to QI. Other sources say a lethal dose is even less. I love that you think 9.9 kilos of chocolate is not much realLy!
Had to save all 3 of these pics. Not for the first time, couldn’t bear NOT to save any one of them.
Raybeard:
I love that you do that. The boys I’m sure would be flattered.

larrymuffin:
You and Jan from Perth are people after my own heart. You both think 9.9 kilos of chocolate is not much really! This statistic is according to the show QI. Other sources say the quantity is actually lower. Even to me, 9.9 kilos of chocolate is a lot. I’ve never even reached 1.3 kilos.
with a little glass of red wine it goes down well.
larrymuffin,
Doesn’t everything?
Oh good lord! According to these pix I’m a ho! I mean prostitute! I didn’t know! I coulda been making big bucks all these years!
Lovely photos of the boys, Scoot.
Deedles:
Moose certainly lives a good life. I used to wonder what it would be like. I‘m not pleasant enough to be an escort.
That chocolate wouldn’t be lethal if you remembered to wear your hard hat
Urspo:
I hadn’t thought of that. I would imagine even a couple of pounds might be lethal from a certain height.
Yes, I think the cats illustrate the distinction.
Kelly:
The always do. Dudo is always so presentable.
If the escort does just that, escort someone to a social event, it’s not prostitution. When it’s more than that, i.e, sex, then it becomes prostitution.
Kirk:
I think escorts are usually open for most anything. They simply present well in public.
SG is writing his memoir?!!! How exciting! Tapping my fingers on my desk waiting for the new book!
Ron:
And it is truly a tell-all. Yikes!
An Escort tops. A prostitute bottoms.
Apparently, suicide by chocolate is a thing? What a way to go.
“An Escort tops. A prostitute bottoms” — an excellent distinction!
wickedhamster:
I wouldn’t take Sassybear’s word for it.
Sassybear:
Have you confirmed that with all escorts and prostitutes? You wouldn’t wnat to be surprised. Or maybe you would. Yes, death by chocolate is apparently a thing. I will keep it in mind.
I will never write a book about what I like to call “my needlessly interesting life.”
wickedhamster:
I tell a lot here, but not as much as SG is willing to tell.
Sign me up for preordering San G’s book 😉
Shirley:
I’ll keep you posted!
When I was a virgin, I went to a strip club and a very hot dancer made an offer to me during a lap dance
I declined for several reasons but the weird thing is this club had no private booths. So the thing I was curious about most was how she actually expected that to happen as the dance room was fairly big, almost never alone, and had mirrors.
Went there for years, never caught anyone having a good time.
Funny enough, now it’s being renovated as a church
Adam:
Hilarious. This will have me wondering, too. Don’t you wish you had asked her “Where?” But of course it will be a church. It’s always been a place of worship. I have never been to a strip club (and I won’t start now… although stranger things have happened).
Yeah the mystery kinda gets to me lol
The only other time I was solicited was non verbal. Drove near a bad part of time at night. Saw a probably black trans person standing on the sidewalk. They waved at me and luckily the light turned green a moment later
