Happy birthday Dane.

Does that mean you will not be attending? If so, sorry to hear that.

Now is the extension of the play or in the shower scene?

I do not carry my phone with me in the house and will go hours without checking it. I often leave my phone in my car when I get home. It is cumbersome in my pocket and I will place it in the passenger seat. When I discover I have left it in the car, I feel no rush to go and get it. One thing though, I have some colleagues, relatives, acquaintances who take umbrage at not having immediate access. Most of my friends know my phone habits and deal with my delayed responsiveness without complaint. The exception to my phone ambivalence is when I am on call. Then I answer all calls promptly. That is inconvenient in that I wind up answering many robocalls and sales calls which I would usually avoid by not answering,

NORTH OF THE BORDER

Yes I have enjoyed many a gander at Xander. I give Leo credit, he is gay, horny and not afraid to go for it. He is also funny.

Vancouver?

Speak softly and carry a big dick.

My brother had a very successful business that was 3 client top heavy. In one year, 2 of the 3 ran into problems and the next year he was out of business. Lucky for him, he took his skills and his remaining client to a competitor and became the CEO for that company. He had the good sense to negotiate that 3/4 of the net from his one remaining client would stay with him. That company went from a small company to a national company and he was able to retire from the CEO position and was held on just o manage that one large account. He worked 3 hours a day 5 days a week 3 weeks a month and enjoyed a very very nice life. He stayed on for 18 years and then when the large client got bought out and withdrew their business from his account, he was able to comfortably retire completely. So three large clients can be tricky, but if they are the right three, a business can be made.

Is that your job satisfaction or your clients? I am betting it is both.

Mr. Erickson, I am sure there are many of us who are anxious to see you reconnect.

I had a patient come to the ER with a flashlight up his butt saying that he fell off a ladder and it was impaled when he landed on it.

Is that a pistol in your ass or are you just glad to see me?

The testosterone levels in that room are probably still well above average from his stay.

I have a room for less than 100 dollars a night there, perhaps because I booked early. In any case, I think i have a spare room there as well for the same price. It definitely is a sleazy hotel with sleazy activity with sleazy men creeping around nearly naked at all hours of the night. A nice room is fine for most circumstances, but for this weekend, I do sleaze with ease. I think of CC as the hotel equivalent of the Gaiety Theater. It is sleazy fun and you do not know how much you will miss it until it is gone.

I have a bad reaction to one type of alcohol. It is a little number known as Toomch. It wipes out my memory and gives me a terrible headache in the morning.

I had posted this in the lounge as I was hoping to get some insight into the history of homosexuality in the western movement. TV was only the trigger to the question. I guess it was moved as the TV portion seemed to be the lead and the responses follow that. Still, if anyone has insight into homosexuality in the emerging western US, I would be interested in learning about it. A cursory Google of same revealed very little information.

Even the very beginning of the Rifleman has a rather long close up of his crotch, though there is no discernible bulge shown. Chuck Connors was 6 foot 6 inches so I would hope he would have had at least 6 inches elsewhere but they probably made him tuck for that shot. Not so Robert Conrad on the Wild Wild West his pants were so tight you could just about make out if he was circumcised or not.

Briefly, people from the forum get together for dinner, pool party and mischief during the second weekend in April. All are invited. I believe this is the 16th year.

I have been unemployed or semiretired or too old to be hired or in some manner and form, home during the day. The cold weather has led to my wanting to be in the house and I have taken to watching old westerns on Me TV. I find the simple story lines and bad black and white scenery fun. It is quite a jolt when Bonanza comes on and is in color. It seems to be the sub rosa gay themes or the blantant homosexual overtures of the shows is something that either escaped the censors or was not felt to be picked up by the general tv viewing public at the time. Several recent story lines have involved troubled and hunky young men being befriended and taken in to live with an older and still quite hunky lonely rancher living in a surprisingly spacious and well appointed cabin with one bedroom and one bed. Today the Rifleman took in an educated young man who thinks of himself as a coward after he fails to stand up to some bullies dressed in very tight pants and leather vests. The bullies come out and torture the poor soul at the Rifleman's cabin and the Rifleman comes to his aid chasing off the bullies. The bullies return the next day with several more tightly muscled ranch hands in very tight pants who as a group pummel the Rifleman and then the leader of the bullies beats the Rifleman and leaves him sprawled out gasping for air. The self proclaimed coward grabs a gun and runs off the gang only after humiliating the head of the bullies by sexily grunting out at him that if he did not stop he was going to shoot. This leads the rest of the group to leave and the leader leaves humiliated. After the group has left, the Rifleman tells the coward how proud he is of him as the coward wraps his arms around the Rifleman and ushers him into the house. The last shot is of the door closing behind them. Basically, I am left wondering how prevalent homosexuality was in the Wild Wild West. Not the TV show, rather the actual western US. It seems that the number of men far outnumbered the number of women. Even if they went out west with a wife, the rate of childbirth deaths and other causes of youthful demise must have left plenty of men without partners. Anyone here have any knowledge of the gay life in the developing west in the mid 1800's?

I also have an extra roomed book should there be a need. But now that Ace will not be at Canyon Club the draw is going to be down. Of course, where one has a room and where one stays for the night in Palm Springs are only tangentially connected.

Lion in Winter is one of my favorite movies and about 6 months ago I took in a local production of the play. The play was wonderful but afterwards, my companion was a Lion in the Bedroom which is even better.

Actually several men on this forum have gotten raised by basketballer even though they have never met.

Just confirmed my reservations at Rouge and my train gets in at 4:15 Does that give me enough time to get from Union Station to Rouge to check in and then to the host hotel to have a few drinks with the fellows? Remember I am old and tend to get lost. LOL

I guess Jack Nicholson was right, all you need are a Few Good Men. You want the truth You need my on your bed. You want me on your bed. Or some such. I always find these statistics interesting and fun. When I ran my business I kept track of how many patients came in each day. Each day of the week. Which hours in 2 hour blocks. Of course by the month. New patients vs established patients. Insured patients vs uninsured patients. The number of patients from the individual insurance companies. Some of it was of value and some was just for curiosity. For Some reason in the 22 years I had this office, April 27th was my least busy day and December 28th was my busiest day. Spring lull and Winter rush with all the other docs on vacation I came to surmise.
