Disgusting. OSU should admit the harm they allowed. But sounds like they won't. So terrible.

I didn't realize how many victims and there was rape. The media spread doubt about the victims' claims. Sad.

I had a housemate in college that would joke about being arrested. "Whatever you say orificer," he would say. 😁 Never had a provider ask if I was. Years ago I got pulled over for a brake light out, along the coast. He was young, tall, handsome, boyish and surprisingly wore short pants. I'll never forget how friendly he was. If more clever I'd have dropped some kind of hint 😜

I just checked CD rates at Schwab, Fidelity and Vanguard. They've all ticked upwards over the last month.

I just watched Looking on HBO. They streamed it again for Pride. I like how S1 starts and S2 ends. Richie flirts with Patrick on the bus (after Patrick just had anonymous sex); Richie gives Patrick a haircut (after Patrick dumps Kevin) as the camera pans out from the shop. They aren't streaming the movie. I see an old thread. A lot of people didn't care for Looking. It worked for me.

There's an old saying in Texas.... Fool me once...... Shame on........Me.... Fool me twice...... ....ya can't get fooled again. But seriously, those good looks easily overcome a man's better judgment. IMO, trust your gut. Also, rely on seasoned references from CompanyofMen. Org.

Thanks! I've found there were exhibitions on both coasts that I missed. If @Moondance returns to the forum, would love to know the source of his Leyendecker content.

I know an insta-hunk that used to get flown to the Middle East by a wealthy man, and would spend time at family gatherings on their yacht. So that aligns with the comments suggesting men obviously get with men over there. I know a gay couple that traveled to Dubai for vacation. I questioned them how safe it was in Dubai. Long story short, they said everything is available for sale. That said, it does sound like one ought to remain discreet, and take it behind closer doors.

Me too! I was in an elevator with Darren Criss a few years ago. That's when I concluded that we get used to good looking celebrities on TV, and may not realize how handsome they really are until seeing them live, in person. He looked SO nice. ♥️ I also saw Darren Criss in Hedwig at The Pantages. He was in really good shape for that role. 😉. Was a great performance.

Assuming the OP meant bowel, I asked my doctor a similar question years ago. He was not enthusiastic about the idea. I did watch a YouTube influencer post his experience visiting a colonic hygienist. I never got one. If the OP meant cleaning out his rectum, my understanding is a standard enema process and then a nice shower where you'd insert two soapy fingers inside to leave everything "fresh" is acceptable preparation. If the OP reference to bawl and bally meant something else, then please disregard my above post. ☺️

I recall Grandpa watched Lawrence Welk and other old timey shows on his black and white console TV. Possibly Jackie Gleason. We had one TV for years. Mom and Dad read the newspaper after dinner, while us kids fiddled with the channels, however Mom tried to limit how much TV we watched. I remember Gilligan's Island. Ginger's evening gowns! Also, The Man From Uncle. Get Smart. My Three Sons. Mannix. Mom insisted on Masterpiece Theater which may be why I love British period piece movies even now. Bewitched was not big at our house, but we didn't fit the mold.

I loved Gomer Pyle. ♥️

The Gay Acres/ Mom's hormonal problem comment triggered a memory of watching Truman Capote speaking on TV. I was probably 15. I did not know who Truman Capote was. I was intrigued by his affected speech. I asked my Mom why he was speaking that way. Mom responded he sounded that way because he was homosexual. 😮 That was a shock to me. I was just learning about homosexuality. Affected speech was not yet on my gaydar. Back to the OP, Bewitched was widely popular, with high viewership, according to Wikipedia. Knowing that, would it be fair to assume Bewitched appealed to straight male viewers? Another popular show during that era was Bonanza. IMO that show would be have been popular with baby gays.

I was surprised by the outcome of the Boisson/Gauff semifinal after watching the Boisson/Andreeva match. Andreeva impressed me, but Boisson seemed unbeatable. I'm looking forward to watching Andreeva at Wimbledon. Is she the next rising star? I was pulling for Keyes and Gauff. A Sabalenka/ Keyes final would have been interesting. They met in the Aussie final. That said, I like Gauff. She beat Keyes and Boisson. The final should be good.

He's been mentioned on other threads. TV host Carlos Adyan. Mainly on Latino media based in Miami.

@Cooper By adding new money, does the entire balance maintain the 4.35% interest rate? My 3 months for the special 4.35% rate ends during July so I will be visiting the branch to make any changes. That said, overall CD rates seem to be easing lower. Sounds like the better CD rates are behind us.

That's encouraging to read about the Melbourne team. Just this morning I read an article from the Raleigh News and Observer, that funding is ending for a prominent HIV vaccine development program led by Duke University researchers, a move the school said “represents an enormous setback” for creating a vaccine to fight the cause of AIDS. Recent advances spurred by mRNA technologies had brought vaccine development to a pivotal juncture.

When I was a young and fetching lad 😉, an older gentleman handed me The Last of the Wine, by Mary Renault. 😉😉 Many years later I re-read it. Someday I'll read it again. I read Call Me by Your Name, by Andre Aciman, twice. After many years I might read it again. Roll your eyes if you must, but it's a winner. I like Aciman's writing. I might re-read Enigma Variations before the Netflix limited series comes out. Hope Netflix can do Aciman justice.

Loved all those characters in The Edmund Trilogy! Been many years, but still remember a lot of them. The lesbian from Iowa. The wacky relatives in Texas. What I remember the most is how he began A Boy's Own Story, the midnight boat ride.

I'd forgotten about that MSP airport cop, below. Yeah, he looked sweet!! Some supported Larry Craig just had a wide stance in the stall, but others thought him a nasty-bad-naughty-boy. 😉 Careful out there guys!!

I wasn't aware of the political shade thrown around but I see it now. I also see fans in the UK complaining about high ticket prices, where some venues had significant unsold seats. That may be the bigger problem, IMO. But I tend to be frugal. 🙂 The Jacksons are a devout family, right? So my shirtless, hunky dancer idea probably wouldn't fly with Miss Jackson. But frankly, when a performer is a little long in the tooth, it doesn't hurt to have some firm, young flesh on stage that can move! As long as she keeps it fun, tasteful and clever...

I accompanied a friend today that recommended visiting The Huntington to see Don Bachardy: A Life in Portraits. Glad I went! An amazing volume of work over the decades. The exhibition runs to early August. Visit www.huntington.org for more information.
