The chicken pox vaccine was announced in the spring of 1984 - I know this because I was home from school with it when I saw it on the news. I was in seventh grade and was one of the last people to get it.

Still double doors but don't think you're fooling anyone. The towels aren't so long that you can't see that there are four legs...

I believe everything came to a screeching halt at Luxor once MGM fully took over the property. While they already owned it when I first went there, I think operations were still run differently for a few years.

Definitely not. It wasn't much later than that happened that they stopped being open 24/7 and also suddenly the masseurs were fully draping. They even redid the steamroom taking out a corner people could tuck away in and not be too visible from the door. And redid the shower doors - previously there were double doors that went all the way to the floor and between the two of them were opaque enough that guys would occasionally double up in the shower and get away with it. Then they took out the inside door and made the outside door smaller and clearer.

EVERY gay man should get Hep A and B vaccinations. The new shingles vaccine is recommended for everyone over 50 and they ALSO said even if you got the old one, you should still get this one because it's so much more effective.

Well my brother smokes a lot of pot and is paranoid. Lots of people make the false association because the time the symptoms become clear to everyone, not just those with training, is around the time these shots happen. But I had noticed when the kid was only six months old that he didn't look anyone in the eye and wasn't very responsive to what other people did. My brother will swear up and down that he spoke his first complete sentence before the MMR and then a week later never spoke again. There was also apparently some case of a massive dataset that was initially to be used in a study being accidentally destroyed, and no longer available for review, and that set the conspiracy theorists on it.

My brother is a freaking antivaxxer because he has an autistic kid. And he swears the HPV vaccine caused some terrible reaction in a cousin of ours who had to be taken to the hospital unable to walk within weeks of getting the first shot. This is a cousin who was so thin I strongly suspect anorexia/bulimia and timing was coincidental.

Sorry when you're doing it in a public place, and accommodating a shared amenity in that public place to do so, you have no reasonable expectation of being left to monopolize it. If they want privacy they can take it to a hotel or their place.

That's why you foster. Lower expectations, YOU get paid, and you can send 'em back.

Elliott got kinda grungy. I was expecting him to grow up hotter....

I by no means meant to imply this was just a female issue. My 47 year old male friend now has two kids under the age of 2. I think he waited too long too. Yes, the extension of adolescence well into the 30s is an issue too. It's frankly stupider for men to wait because they don't' live as long. Settling down invariably involves some amount of "settling FOR" and our culture doesn't like to admit that.

Actually I don't think it's foolish at all. Too many people wait for everything to be perfect to find out it's too late. I have a friend making one last stab at IVF, she's 44. And at the same time this is going on, her parents' health is starting to go. If/when your kids have kids, you will likely be still be young enough to help out. Some people seem to think you should have a paid-off house and four years of college tuition in the bank before you consider having a child.

Saw him at one of the rare Adonis Las Vegas parties a few years ago. Got a lapdance and did not get the impression an escort session would be remotely worth it. Seemed more the "pose and be serviced" type. He may have since expanded his repertoire with clients.

Back in the Club 20 days Club 20 charged $160, $60 of which went to the dancer. You may be recalling that. I think Tim just figured cut out the middleman aspect of it and charge for the room then let customer and dancer do what they will. It's 20 minutes, not 10/15. presumably the minimum the dancer will be getting is what they would be getting for lapdances during that time, then more for either getting naked or doing more. Also some customers simply prefer the veneer of privacy.

FYI that $100 goes entirely to the house, not the dancer.

Bath houses as formal standing businesses, to evade rules about sex businesses, call themselves "private clubs" and have to maintain records, so they will ask for your ID and hold onto it while you are in the club, but they do not disseminate their mailing lists and are not going to contact you. It's strictly for liability purposes. Be aware that many of these establishments are extremely hit or miss and have a WIDE range of clientele. Do not expect people who look like models unless you hire an escort to go with you. And also know there's a high proportion of people who are not taking any precautions whatsoever there. So be safe.

eh, some of those pictures are ten years apart and clearly posed to look bad.

My experience with parents and siblings who were somewhat less than fully functional adults, and ingrained Catholic guilt requiring me to pick up some of their slack to the detriment of my goals kind of soured me on the idea of voluntarily taking on the responsibility of a child. Honestly I'm still kind of pissed at my family about that.

I thought I did when I was younger but I also never exactly arranged my life to accommodate them, and also wound up caretaking for my mother and later my sister which pretty much kept me from doing that.. Then I got to 40 and was like, "While technically I'm not too old, I don't feel physically with back issues/etc. I can keep up with a child" So my position now is - if I meet Mr. Right, AND he's significantly younger, AND he really wants kids, I'll do it. Should my younger sister and her husband kick the bucket, I'd take in their two. But I wouldn't do it with someone my age or older unless the child were over 10 -too much possibility of the kid being burdened with caring for aging parents when he/she should just be starting out. Also, I have 9 nieces and nephews, two of them are autistic, one of them profoundly so, and at least 3 and probably 4 of the others are general fuckups who I'm likely to cut out of the will for the way they treat their parents. So I'm acutely aware of what can go wrong. I do have to admit I'm envious of Basketballer, not that he's had it easy by any stretch.

I'm not an escort but I've definitely seen some ads over the years from escorts who pretty much restricted themselves to clients they were attracted to. It's not always a full-time gig, you know. A lot of them have day jobs and use the escort money to get ahead.

I thought it was fairly settled that something like a third of men will dabble when confined in all-male environments for extended periods, then only pursue women if they are available. It's essentially masturbatory in my opinion versus actual desire. I have zero interest in women myself but I can imagine if somehow all men disappeared tomorrow I might do something with a woman. I'd still consider myself exclusively gay in orientation.

Colby Jansen played/coached(and may still, I haven't kept up) for one of the gay rugby teams, I've seen him a couple of times at tournaments.

I've long joked that it would be cheaper for me in the long run to have a marriage of convenience with a chiropractor or physical therapist.

He seemed a lot more self-assured than Evan Hansen.

Saw Udom once about two years ago. He's very good. And located on the Strip so convenient if you are there.
