<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: x-small">About 4 years ago I met a dancer in a club in Queens named Daniela.&nbsp;To this day she is, and will likely always be, one of the most fascinating dancers that I will ever meet.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: x-small">&nbsp;</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: x-small">She was pretty, but not &ldquo;hot&rdquo; in the classic sense.&nbsp;She was from Greece and had some traditional Greek traits, including a slightly protruding nose and a small top with a slightly curvy bottom.&nbsp;What she did have, however, was a special gift for reading people and very subtly drawing them in. In no time you felt like part of her inner circle.&nbsp;She was bold and forthrite without being loud, and she had a way of doing everything in a direct, no-nonsense, earthy way. &nbsp;She was tough, yet classy, in a way that reminded me of a woman from a different era, despite the fact that she was&nbsp;under 30.&nbsp;She was also very smart and could speak on a number of topics, all the while doing so with an earthy appeal.&nbsp;In a nutshell, she was as a mesmerizing&nbsp;woman in a sea of strippers.&nbsp;She was truly a master of her craft.</span></div>

<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: x-small">As a master of her craft, she also had every angle plotted.&nbsp;She earned good money on nights when other girls could barely cover their tip-outs.&nbsp;It was not the lap dances that did it, though she certainly did those, but also what other guys gave her for the pleasure of her company. &nbsp;It is &nbsp;important to note that she never asked for&nbsp;money for her time &ndash; she didn&rsquo;t have to.&nbsp;She also was the first to work out a deal with the club to receive a cut of her drink sales, a practice that was not offered to any other dancer (she had quite a following).&nbsp;All the while keeping these things tightly to herself, not making any friends with the girls and letting none of them know how she was doing.&nbsp;</span></div>

<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: x-small">She was also a big game hunter, and would often work her charm on &ldquo;top 2%ers.&rdquo;&nbsp;Not only did they come into the club to see her, but she often went to dinner with a number of them, maintaining a select group of &ldquo;friends&rdquo; among the club&rsquo;s more well-to-do patrons.&nbsp;These were not sexual friends, though many wanted to be that and more.&nbsp;Some men even flew back and forth from out-of-state just to see her and one man even gave her an expensive German auto.&nbsp;When she left for Greece she went back with a bank account full of cash, a lot of nice jewelry and, of course, a new car.</span></div>

<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: x-small">The girls that post in places like the &ldquo;Hustle Hut&rdquo; are babies compared to this girl.&nbsp;She had learned the subtle old school, old world art of seduction.&nbsp;Comparing her to the average stripper is like comparing the Waldorf Astoria Hotel to a Motel 6 - they may be in the same general industry but they are in two different stratospheres. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: x-small">I am as hard-edged as they come (anyone who reads my posts knows my gig) and even I felt drawn to her. I always kept my wits about me and never reached too deep into my wallet, but I can understand how it happened. I had never met a woman with her talent for this game, and probably never will again.</span>
