'The secret life of Rick Ransom'

So what do you think Rick does as a second job? 

While you ponder, here are a few more windows to look at, or through. 

By day, Rick is a window cleaner.  But five evenings a week he does something entirely different. 

 

Can you guess what that part-time employment is?

 

Is he:  (a.)  A male stripper?

           (b).   A personal fitness trainer?

    Or  (c).   A male escort?

That is one scary job ... I don't think you'd get me on that ledge.. I'd a personal trainer.

I thought a personal trainer also.

Hi, FARID, DOREEN, FOGUINHO, LARS, and BOB. Glad you've started guessing:) Photogapher wasn't one of the choices, Bob:)

A Comedian ? Or An Escort that cleans every customers windows and Eyeglasses?
Andre. said at 3:51 p.m. on Oct 16, 2009:
Fitness trainer (?)

I'M GOING WITH ALL THREE p/t evening occupations 'cause he could DO 'EM ALL! lol (my real guess would be fitness trainer - and they DO CHARGE a lot ergo 'Ransom' pseudonymn???elsewise I rather DOUBT he'd want you advertising his 'peeler' or 'escort' status.........BUT THEN AGAIN, maybe he wants the biz!?! LOL haha DID I WIN DID I WIN? t-hee xoxo Patty (heya' Rick lookin'GOOOOOOOOD!) :-) Patty x (for u 2 Mikey and the silly rick 'ransom' tabblo)

My guess would be a male escort. I notice in#1 that he poses just like you , and seeing as you are a perfect gentleman (pardon me while I choke with laughter ), that he also must be ; xx Love the windows.
Loes said at 6:38 p.m. on Oct 16, 2009:
Well, I guess he's a mail escort. Here in Holland "the women of easy virtue" are sitting behind the windows waiting for costumers. I suppose he walks past the windows looking for costumers???
Moorlerche said at 7:13 p.m. on Oct 16, 2009:
No, no everything wrong. Long at his figure and comparing him to some of my collegues I am sure he is in their line of business: the receptionest of a fitness club. Mixing drinks, being nice to the guests and using the sauna and the equipment for free.

Mike I think the second to last picture is especially good. As are some in the middle, where you could look through the building or have interesting mirror effects.

Rick Ransom (Service Guide) provides guided striper fishing trips on Lake Buchanan, located on the Highland Lakes in Central Texas. He guides anglers. (LOL - I copied it on the internet).
NeusinhaGedoz said at 7:24 p.m. on Oct 16, 2009:
Mike, the pictures are beautiful !!!!!!!!!
Charlespop said at 7:50 p.m. on Oct 16, 2009:
Cool tabblo. Tabblo is rated g......so without a doubt he is a personal fitness trainer .
YonderCreature said at 9:17 p.m. on Oct 16, 2009:
I was going to say, "Inadvertent Peeping Rick", but regardless of his occupation, I love these window photos! Especially the ones with the reflections!
Waltinho said at 12:07 a.m. on Oct 17, 2009:
I already did my choice: Security not, because security has the hairs well curtinhos; personal trainer also not, because it is average out of form (paunchy way) and he can be only a Stripper, since it paints the hair and the nails are quite painted. Besides, security would not risk exposing so much in a window; a personal trainer does not specify if it will hang in windows. Stripper is an informal work and it can still enjoy oneself.
Wildthing said at 4:26 a.m. on Oct 17, 2009:
I'm pleased that one or two of you also noticed the windows. As for RICK. Well!!!! You know what I'm like. I'd love to say that he is a male stripper, but the truth is, I'd never seen him before in my life until I saw him cleaning those windows. I made up the name for him, thinking that it was a fun way to open a tabblo about windows with:)
Chaitiamma said at 5:11 a.m. on Oct 17, 2009:
LOL.................A good one, Mike !!! Otherwise I'd have said he made a good male stripper !
Andre. said at 5:16 a.m. on Oct 17, 2009:
In this case it is safe to say that he's working for food. God save the Queen. LOL
Wildthing said at 6:23 a.m. on Oct 17, 2009:
Thanks, DAVID and ANDRE :)
EMA said at 8:56 a.m. on Oct 17, 2009:
You are a naughty fellow that likes to pull our leg for fun.:) The tabblo is very nice. I love the windows and your indiscreet eye. Cheers and have a nice week end!
Wildthing said at 9:53 a.m. on Oct 17, 2009:
LOL. Thank you, EDITE. I like to try and make people smile:)
Eduardo.affonso said at 11:34 a.m. on Oct 17, 2009:
Well, Mike, you certainly made some ladies (and a few gentlemen, probably) mentally undress this fearless guy. Being bold and able to face things most men would avoid, I could swear he was a male escort. But I already know it was just your fertile imagination. Some tabbloers must be quite disappointed...
Bravemoonbearer said at 1:24 p.m. on Oct 17, 2009:
I like Lorraine's idea of being a male escort.Maybe he installs all the windows so he will have plenty to clean.Anyway,you could't pay me enough to be a window cleaner.
EMA said at 2:21 p.m. on Oct 17, 2009:
And I thank you for that! :))

Notre choix était l'entraineur personnel , mais il peut "" d'une pierre deux coups"" conjuguer la réponse A avec la réponse B ( expression Française qui dit que l'on peut faire deux choses à la fois).
L'idée de départ est super, quelle imagination fertile Mike!!!

Mirella said at 5:24 p.m. on Oct 17, 2009:
For sure, he's an handsome man ,I like him as an escort or a trainer or a windows cleaner......I like very much also your photos of the windows, especially the reflections Ciao, Mike YOU ARE GREAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Loes said at 6:03 p.m. on Oct 17, 2009:
Great one Mike!! Your imagination let us also imagine!!
Leftofcenter said at 6:12 p.m. on Oct 17, 2009:
male stripper. the bleached hair says it all. apart from that, love all the windows. i always peek into windows, wonder wots behind the curtains. i prefer the "old" windows to the modern glass windows.
Ebucar said at 11:26 p.m. on Oct 17, 2009:
I would have said a "stipper"... but we'll leave it for the collective imagination :-) Anyway, this was a fun exercise and your windows made a beautiful tabblo.
RosaneMar said at 8:51 a.m. on Oct 18, 2009:
Interesting tabblo and history!!!
Ira said at 3:06 p.m. on Oct 18, 2009:
Is very witty... And me very much like to a photo of windows and old houses. Lovely and cosy

Once upon a time there was a peaceful village. The village had a lot of sheep and they were guarded by a shepherd. His name was Mike.But Mike was too easily bored, and he found it very tiresome being on the hillside with only sheep for company. So he’d find ways to amuse himself, running up rocks, climbing trees, chasing sheep, but nothing really kept him amused for very long. Then he hit upon a brilliant idea. He climbed to the top of the tallest tree, and started shouting towards the village: “Wolf! Wolf! Wooolf! Woohoolf...........

And I'm sure you all know the Moral of the Story of "The Boy who called Wolf," or in this case "The Tabbloer who called Wolf........
Leftofcenter said at 9:03 p.m. on Oct 18, 2009:
yes? so stripper or aerobic instructor?
Wildthing said at 5:17 a.m. on Oct 19, 2009:
Glad to see that most of you liked this 'window' set. I thought the addition of Rick would make it less boring. As I said earlier, I'd never seen this guy before in my life. I just let my imagination take over:) Thanks for commenting, EDUARDO, SANDY, EDITE, THIERRY et KARINE, MIRELLA, LOUISE, ANNELIES, ELIANE, ROSANE, IRA, and LINDA.

Maybe I can't stop crying WOLF, Linda. After all, I am a wild Thing:)
Debdog said at 11:06 p.m. on Oct 19, 2009:
HAHAHHAAAA!!!! u enjoyed the windows and the "VIEW" i was imagining the male stripper:):)
Debdog said at 11:06 p.m. on Oct 19, 2009:
LOL but of COURSE!! the seed was planted:)
Snooway said at 3:02 a.m. on Oct 20, 2009:
haha, love this, also the story by Linda!
Wildthing said at 6:58 a.m. on Oct 20, 2009:
Thanks, DEB & SUE. Linda got it right. Who's ever going to believe anything I say now? :)
T1nk said at 8:16 p.m. on Oct 20, 2009:
I like the couple eating. They mirror each other in stance, and it amuses me (in an endearing way) to see how people mimmick each other when they think a lot of that other person.
Krisu said at 1:39 a.m. on Oct 21, 2009:
Love your window photos. And Rick..... ;)
Wildthing said at 5:32 a.m. on Oct 21, 2009:
I could've just done the couple eating as a stand-alone pic, then, SAR' :)

Thank you, KRIS.
Robya said at 10:04 a.m. on Oct 21, 2009:
Poor Rick, Now what kind of reputation does he have. Does he have a chance to redeem his self? Hope he does not run across this tabblo, We better start saying great things about the guy to keep it Kosher!! lol.
Wildthing said at 10:07 a.m. on Oct 21, 2009:
Ha! I also hope that whoever 'Rick' is, he doesn't join tabblo, ROBBI. I could end up in reeeaaall trouble:)
Rita.Mandarino said at 10:46 a.m. on Oct 22, 2009:
I like your photos very much but your stories are the best o f your tabblos.
Wildthing said at 11:44 a.m. on Oct 22, 2009:
I think photos and fun go together, RITA :)
Noe said at 10:32 p.m. on Oct 25, 2009:
Another cool set Mike ;o)
Wildthing said at 4:39 a.m. on Nov 6, 2009:
Thanks, NOE.
