No man should wear a speedo bathing suit after 21 years of age as it is a garment for the young and beautiful.

I love when the Fashion Police walks in and starts giving orders what other people should wear. That's so 1920's ...

Personally, I think that people should wear at the beach what they're comfortable wearing, independently of what others might think.

Now the fact that speedos are not commonly worm by older men in the U.S. but are in Europe does not make one behavior correct and the other one incorrect. It is simply a different cultural outlook.

Why older men only? You can safely apply that to all men, including youngsters who massively wear these very attractive baggy shorts at the beach.

Unfortunately American Puritanism is not ready to see men exposing their bulges in speedos. Probably in 50 years things might change ... or not.

Trolls have been a "Feature" of the Internet long before most of you have been around. If you would like a historical prospective, check out the anti-troll FAQ:

 

http://www.hyphenologist.co.uk/killfile/anti_troll_faq.htm

 

Here are some helpful tips for dealing with Trolls:

• Don't Feed the Trolls....They only eat humans, especially young humans. Offering them food will usually result in loss of fingers, hands, arms, and sometimes heads.
   
   
  
• Don't Wake the Trolls...They are vane about their names. Mention their name and they will wake up. Trolls are grumpy when awaken, and usually hungry...See the first rule.
   
   
  
• Don't Play with the Trolls...Remember how Cats play with mice? That's how Trolls play with humans, and remember what happens to the mouse once play time is over!
   
   
  
• Don't Teach a Troll...They are very set in their ways, They get very angry very fast. When they get angry they play. See previous rule.
   
   
  
• Don't Argue with a Troll...They are very set in their ways, They get very angry very fast. When they get angry they play. See previous rule.
   
  

 

If a Troll shows up, the safest course of action is to ignore the Troll. Slip away slowly and very quietly, What ever you do don't attract their attention.

Thanks for the reminder.

Every Popular Theory You’ve Heard About Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 And Why They’re Probably Wrong

The question now is: who was speaking?

Malaysian authorities say that the 27-year-old co-pilot spoke the final words "All right, good night" from the cockpit:

Hey, butt pirate, don't run out of ammo!

I liked how the scale of this world map was distorted according to the importance it represents in his eyes. Very clever.

... or what Europeans know about the USA?

[video=youtube;Sl0W1idvKzY]

While it is disappointing that it is apparently easy to find Americans who know little or nothing of the world around us, I can only hope that these do not represent the average American.

In return, would you like to see what Europeans know about World's geography?

It isn't much "prettier", but you can have quite a few laughs watching this entertaining video.

I'm a little offended by the world map presented above with the idea that Americans know little-to-nothing of the rest of the world's geography.

I'm surprised to learn that, according to that map, Europe is populated with "pussies".

Wet cold? Dry cold? Expert says there's no such thing

http://rlv.zcache.com.au/but_its_a_dry_cold_postcard-rc467d6665d5841adae7bf529eaf0f878_vgbaq_8byvr_512.jpg

Dry cold, wet cold, it's all the same says one prominent climatologist with Environment Canada.

Dave Phillips has heard it before. In the dead of winter, a person from Edmonton visits Windsor, Ont., known for its summertime humidity, and complains about the "wet cold."

It simply isn't true, Phillips said.

"There's nothing to it. It's a myth," Phillips said. "I hear it so much on the Prairies; 'at least ours is a dry cold, not like that damp cold you have in Ontario. And our heat is dry.'

"I think they think their precipitation is dry."

Phillips said -15C in Windsor feels the same as -15C in Winnipeg.

"It's part of legend. It's part of a rallying cry. They defend their brutal winters out there," Phillips said of Western Canadians. "Now, we'd probably call in the army in Ontario. And they would be going in from the patio in Winnipeg."

In January 1999, Toronto Mayor Mel Lastman called in the Canadian army to help remove snow from city streets.

When it comes to temperature, if all other weather elements are equal, cold is cold in the east or west, Phillips said. It's also dry — period.

"At these very low temperatures, there is virtually no humidity in the air. If there was humidity, you'd be in an ice fog. All that moisture would condense in the air and you'd be in an ice fog," Phillips explained. "You wouldn't be able to see the hood ornament of your car.

"At those very low temperatures, it's almost a desert dryness."

The biggest factor in "feeling" colder is the wind.

"It could be that you're under high pressure in Manitoba and it's very calm. In Windsor, you could have a bitter, stronger wind coming off the water," Phillips said.

The low overnight low in Windsor -17C and Wednesday's high is expected to be -7C

Windsor had a wind chill temperature of -29C Tuesday. Skin will freeze in 20 minutes under those conditions, Phillips said.

The wind chill on Wednesday is predicted to be -23C.

"It’s been two years in the making, but it’s going to be short lived," Phillips said of the cold snap. "By the end of the month, we’ll be into another January thaw."

You guys in SoCal are spoiled.

It's only 52 F (11°C) in Brussels tonight and it has been a very very mild winter so far.

I look forward to experiencing that polar vortex everyone is talking about next week when I hit the East Coast. :-)

A blast from the past: Bonnie Tylor revisited (hilarious)

[video=youtube;fsgWUq0fdKk]

scattered reports indicated he was either living in London with his partner, working on a cruise ship or had relocated to Spain. Rumors surrounding the location and fate of the popular model are abundant.

Not just rumors, my experience predates 2011. I've met Levi on a cruise ship in the middle of the Caribbean. He used to work for Atlantis.

When I met him he was very open and accessible, with zero attitude unlike what one might think about models and people working in the modeling industry. He was very humble and didn't take himself too seriously. That exudes sexiness for me.

Agree with everything that has been said about Andres so far. He's very attentive to your needs in a sweet and gentle kind of way. A definite latin touch!

I just noticed that his review page displays a wrong phone number:

+1 464-596-1044 should read +1 646-596-1044 for review #4 to #7 (646 is the correct NYC area code, while 464 is a typo). A quick Google search on the number confirms it.

Gym humor

LOL. The joke with the chiropractor is great. Thanks for the laugh, Jackhammer.

Chris,

If you get a chance, I'd recommend the Grand Canyon Skywalk, a short 30 minute flight or helicopter ride from Vegas. Enjoy !
