Virtually everyone will poo-poo these suggestions, but as a practical gay who gets shit done, I'm accustomed to it: San Francisco Marriott Marquis (the one at 780 Mission Street): No, it is not super-posh, but yes the staff is great; it is near MUNI, BART, and SoMa parking garages; Marriott is very supportive of the LGBTQ community (scored 100% on HRC's Corporate Equality Index); and your SPG status should be good there now that Marriott owns Starwood. It is also a big hotel, so your clients' privacy and anonymity is pretty well assured Hilton Union Square: BIG hotel that also has a Starbucks and a decent restaurant and bar. The rooms are OK and it is close to MUNI and BART. Parking is a bitch. Hilton Financial District: I like this hotel, but the elevators are a pain in the ass, the streets nearby are all torn up, and there's not a whole lot of "there" there.

That was our point. The jackass wanted a receipt from a professional installer.

When we were selling my dad's house the building inspector and the buyer's real estate agent made a huge deal out of the lack of carbon monoxide detectors. "Installation" was mandatory, required "proof of installation," etc. The inspector did notate that he saw a detector in its package on a shelf in the laundry room. "Installation" involved removing said detector from the package and plugging it into an outlet. So, my brother took video of me getting the detector off the shelf, removing the package, plugging the detector into the wall outlet, and performing the test. The buyer's attorney insisted on additional proof. Our attorney said "no." The buyer agreed with us as did their mortgage company.

A former colleague retired to Arecibo. She liked living there but likes it less now that electricity is rather scarce. Still, she was able to live steps from the beach for a fraction of what it would cost to do so on the mainland.

Was checking SD/LA ads and saw that he logged into RM on 5/16.

Gives a new meaning to the phrase "marking the event."

I know he has been discussed before when he used a different variant of "Brent[fill in the blank]" but searching for "Brent" yielded nothing about him.

Today NPR's Morning Edition had a story about road, er, aisle rage at a German IKEA store.

My 2012 Dodge is keyless and I have never left it running. When I have opened the door with the engine running this annoying bell goes off, similar to the one that goes off when the lights are left on. The self-cleaning gene pool strikes again.

You might want to look into using tapatalk (https://www.tapatalk.com/). You can either create your group by using your own domain and linking it to their website or simply create a group within tapatalk that would have a URL like "https://www.tapatalk.com/PapaTonyGroup." It appears to be free of charge.

Please, @BabyBoomer, don't confuse us with facts. Minds have been made up.

Having hired Matt a few years ago, I can't see him making anyone doing anything.

I can see that. All of the pics are of the same guy but his face looks different when he changes his hair and looks very different when he shaves his facial hair. Even more dramatic is how his body changes when the light changes.

Because it is so difficult to mix ketchup and mayonnaise.

Given the majority of the attendees live outside of Palm Springs, it is doubtful that the pool party contributed to the syphilis outbreak. BTW: you might want to be re-think your suggestion that members of this little community are spreading an STI.

@Tarte Gogo mentioned at @Latinochileno has met him. You could send PM and ask about his experience

Nordstrom VISA also does that. At one time, BofA debit cards did too.

I agree completely!

Actually, Amex was one of the first cards to analyze transaction history and decline out-of-pattern charges. Over the last 20-something years they have developed a pretty solid algorithm. Bank of America, on the other hand, either over-flags (and then keeps you on hold for several hours because they did the same to everyone else) or doesn't flag at all (wow - you travelled from Dillard's in Scottsdale to Dubai in ten minutes! Sure, we'll approve that!) In regards to the OP's card being declined for fraud, he has said he never goes out of his house and suddenly buys a prepaid card at Target. A fraud filter will flag that. Try seven times before calling the bank? You are lucky your card was not cancelled.

Given your superior subject matter expertise, I will defer that question to you.

Not to judge a book by its cover, but the pics don't exactly convey a "Mr Nice Guy" image.

I'd rather have him tax my assets.
