  1. I’ve taken 5mg prednisone every day for the last 26 years. I’ll take it for the rest of my life. Learning to be conscious of the insulin masking was a 10 year ordeal, but knowing the prednisone keeps me from sensing I’m full was how I gained the upper hand in the weight gain/control arena.

     

    On days I feel sick, tired or stressed doubling and tripling the dosage brings to mind the masking and the need for conscious awareness of its side effects..

  2. @instudiocity Correct me if I am wrong, but don't you have renters? Is this something you can help with?

    Yes, I have renters in my condo, long-term renters... 15 years for the 42 year old & 8 years for the 35 year old. But I’m maxed out.

     

    He should keep looking, there are many roommate wanted situations now that a 2 bedroom is over $2grand a month.

    For those of you who feel this is unreasonable, put yourself in my shoes. Now imagine that everyone you know found out about your naughty little secret. Exposing my identity is a risk, and the fee is insurance. If you don't want to pay the premium, you may either take a leap of faith, or hire another provider.

    Think, not feel. Same reason I don’t hire torso-only ads.

     

    Blurring your face 20% allows only those you know to find out about you.

     

    Charging me a fee is not insurance I will not pass along your unblurred photos. Some might construe a fee as ownership if not just licensed use.

     

    Hiring a professional provider who doesn’t need to hide is my goal.

  4. Doesnt surprise me of Rentmen shady behaviour.

    Rentmen refuse to publish one of my review of an escort (new, gold member with no review) who I met and does not appear as his picture (using stolen images).

    Rentmentreason because I didnt email the escort through Rentmen system, I texted the escort instead cause his phone number listed on his profile.

    RentmenTREASON! What a great explanation.

  5. I’m a traveling sales person with friends all over my territory who invite me to stay, but I don’t because it’s very limiting to me. I have to be hospitable. I can’t go to my room shut the door and work. I can eat what I want when I want, and the next morning my departure is limited by my host’s morning routine, breakfast?, coffee, even departure time. Staying overnight with someone I find very limiting.

  6. I, too, just had a air conditioning problem.

    Saturday morning, after 9 years of faithful service, my window AC unit died a peaceful and quiet death.

    We have been having hot and humid weather here in NYC, and the apartment became very uncomfortable.

    My building handyman arrived and was able to provide me with a "loaner" AC until I could replace mine.

    I called an AC sales and installation company here in NYC and they got back to me saying there was nothing they could do for me. They were booked up for 6 weeks! Yikes.

    I went on the internet, looked up some prices for the unit I wanted to purchase (Just an upgraded model - Fridgeaire) and found one of the lowest rices was at a large appliance/electronics store near me but the delivery time was a week away. However Amazon had the same make/model and promised delivery on Monday evening (yesterday).

    Needless to say the Amazon price was $10 higher but with Amazon Prime, I got free delivery and a better delivery date.

    In conclusion, the unit is up and running and I am in blissful coolness.

    Stay cool.

    The local appliance store doesn't stock the A/C units in that location. They have to order a drop ship from a warehouse. Amazon doesn't have the store, so everything is drop shipped from an Amazon warehouse. The difference is Amazon is delivering in your neighborhood everyday.

  7. I’m sure you are right, but I use an alias with gmail. Perhaps that doesn’t even matter if they have my IP address. I did one of those gmail privacy checks a while back, but who knows.

    I guarantee Gmail has your IP addresses and in order to open the account, you had to give them some personal information including an alternate email account. You can check by clicking on the Account information in the upper right of the mail page.

  8. When I cross the border I clean my browser history and delete my gmail app.
    Interesting... you delete your gmail app. This implies you're using Google's Free Mail Service for escort related correspondence. Do you have any idea how much of that data is being mined and marketed by Google?
  9. I think an advertiser on Rentmen is marketing a fantasy of spending time with him. But with limited resources-- resources limited by the standardized format of Rentmen's advertising model, which is a cookie-cutter format.

     

    How many possibilities does the advertiser have for Orientation? I've only seen Bisexual, Gay, Straight and Ask Me. Is there a Prefer not to say? How about a Nun'ya as in None of You Business?

     

    @hypothetically is correct in his statements here, but clients don't/won't tolerate being lied to by escorts. After all that's pretty much the general theme of Deli discussions. However, we will buy into a fantasy of being with a guy whom we find hot, who for the price of a session, we can believe we will relate.

     

    Bottom line is the advertiser is an actor playing a role, for which he's written the script, posed for the photos, and ultimately generated some word-of-mouth (reviews). If he's model-esque in his photos, he's gets our attention. If he's a good script writer, he's closing the deal. No matter the quality of his acting, he's generating word-of-mouth advertising. All three elements are essential to successfully marketing his brand.

     

    I can think of many men who have a GREAT Brand. Peter Hung, Tristan Baldwin, Benjamin Nicholas, to name a very few. I can also think of some not-so great brands - remember Scott Smith? I can also think of men with so-so brands not because of their Rentmen presence but their posting here is so starkly contrary tothe fantasy he is selling in his ads. Everyone knows this guy.

     

    Ultimately, fantasy is fiction. It's not really a lie, but there can be little truth in a fantasy, either. Most often when the dollars paid don't line up with the experience, it generates negative reviews/comments. Remember Caveat Emptor.

     

    Escorts need to know that the more their advertising aligns with their target, the broader the group of potential clients. Clients need to learn that when only 1 piece of the puzzle, generally the photos, is the only attractive part, the escort doesn't align with the client's fantasy. You need all three: photos, script, reviews, to decide a good match.

  10. Out of the nearly 500 posts I’ve made, the number of “thumb downs” I’ve given I can count on one hand. That hardly signifies my lack of ability to accept views that differ from my own (as they usually do). You are also a follower of mine and have read many a post, so...please, spare me. A dislike is hardly a death sentence, I think he’ll be okay.
    LOL! I think you should sign all your posts with your screen name, in italics, "Hypothetically" !
  11. https://support.apple.com/keyboard-service-program-for-mac-notebooks

     

    Additional lnformation

    This worldwide Apple program does not extend the standard warranty coverage of your Mac notebook.

    If you believe your Mac notebook was affected by this issue, and you paid to have your keyboard repaired, you can contact Apple about a refund.

    The program covers eligible MacBook, MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro models for 4 years after the first retail sale of the unit.

  12. Your responses project a harbor for provider evasiveness, deception and shifting of blame. Perhaps you should consider politics.

    Why politics? He's already playing a role he enjoys, pocketing $300/hour with no restrictions on how much one person can contribute. Plus he's only got one special interest group he has to satisfy, one client at a time.

  13. My neighbor texted: "We are having an earthquake"

    I responded: "No that's my roommate running around the condo"

    Neighbor: "OMG for real?

    Neighbor: "I about freaked out."

    Neighbor: "No the house shook all the way through the stairs."

    5 minutes later, Neighbor: "(Neighbor #2) felt it! It WAS and earthquake."

     

    Typical, earthquake felt like a freight train passing by. Big ones feel like the freight train derailing in your room.

  14. Many people end up getting turned down by GE after the interview (and background check).
    When I applied for Global Entry, I scheduled my interview at the LA Cruiseship Terminal during the middle of the day, in the middle of the week. There were 4 CBP officers in the office. All four went through the process so they could learn. It took about 15 minutes but the interview was minimal. They were worried about getting the procedures correct.
