Only thing I would add to Jetlow's advice is that it is important when traveling in third world countries such as Brazil to carry a reasonable amount of money like $100US on your person so that if you are robbed, it is enough to satisfy the robbers. If you only have a small amount of cash, they may get angry and frustrated because they know you are affluent and they may take it out on you. This happened to my nephew in Rio years ago when he and his girlfriend were robbed at knifepoint just outside the Copacabana Palace Hotel in broad daylight. He only had a trifling amount of cash and credit cards and the robbers were incensed. Her screaming helped in resolving the situation because they fled before they could do much harm.

If it was kidney stones, blood would be present in his urine. Not sure about semen. I suffered from kidney stones for about 20 years and that was the test to distinguish it from an appendix attack, which feels the same as a kidney stones attack. The test for appendix is a blood test.

Well, the province of Quebec just imposed a lockdown including a 10pm to 5am curfew taking effect at 5pm tomorrow, New Year's Eve. During the curfew, no-one can go out of their homes and invite anyone not of their household to their homes. All restaurants and bars are closed except for takeout and all non essential businesses like gyms are closed. This in the face of 14,000 daily cases which is about the same percapita rate as the US is now experiencing, if not lower. Hospitalization rates are approaching capacity limits and will be overwhelmed in less than 3 weeks on the current trajectory unless these measures are taken, according to the government. This will kill the escort business for the time being in Montreal unless you do day time engagements. I'm wondering what is going to happen in Ontario, where I live. Rates are accelerating but not to the level of Quebec's, yet.

Maybe they hoped they would find stuff worth more than 2500 euros in his room or on his person. I had a friend, long deceased, who wore a diamond ring worth $40,000 back in the early 20s and a Rolex watch. He would turn the ring around on his finger so the diamond was hidden when picking up guys at bars or engaging escorts in Montreal, New York or Florida, where we both went out together on many occasions. But the watch was a give away, which he refused to switch to a Swatch, as I did even with my much less expensive Swiss watch especially in places like Brazil. And back at his houses in Montreal or Florida, they would have easily found stuff worth $thousands. I traveled with him in Europe and Brazil and he always had wads of cash at any one time. I never took expensive jewellery with me, not that I had much. When I went out I just had a couple of hundred dollars on me. I guess what I'm saying is that I never try to look like a mark. Of course, my friend was 6 feet 4 inches tall and weighed about 260 pounds so he would not have been an easy take down, except for the drugging thing. But he didn't drink.

I agree that this is the type of thing that could happen to any of us, albeit mostly unimaginable. It's hard to judge without knowing all the circumstances how reckless or not this victim was in inviting unknown persons back to his hotel. We've all I think picked up with strangers for a night of illicit sex (I use the term as the newspapers would report it). Nothing untoward happened. Just our good luck. This guy ran out of good luck.

Maybe with good reason.

He's quite cute. He didn't look that stressed out. And he was with the guys.

I'm surprised that someone shot in the head would be out of the hospital after a few days. It must have been fairly superficial. Also the father was released after what could have been a serious shot to the back. Nevertheless, any gunshot wounds are a serious matter. It sounds like a domestic dispute gone wrong when the young man resorted to using a pistol. Of course he could have done equally serious damage with a piece of household furniture. Sounds like a temper management issue.

I think we should be careful not to conflate the criminal activities of some porn stars, who do not necessarily escort, and some escorts who get in trouble with the law. Also the offences are worth considering as to their gravity and connection to acts of violence against persons or robbery. I have not seen any evidence this applies to "many" having rap sheets.

In any case, in my experience I have enjoyed three person "orgies" more than multiperson get-togethers with the same purpose. With two others you get to participate in the entire experience whereas with a room packed with 10 or twelve you miss much of the action. I hate thinking someone else is having a better time than I am in these situations. Lol

Interesting, I just got my booster today, six months after my second shot in June. Today it was Moderna as Pfizer is in short supply in Canada. My two first shots were Pfizer. I will hold off on seeing anyone for a couple of weeks at least and see how things look mid January.

As I think about it, Omicron has the potential to crowd out Delta and if Omicron proves to be less problematic, then it might result in the pandemic turning into a pesky virus like the flu which circulates around the world seasonly and only causes minor inconvenience to most, but not all people. After all, the flu still kills thousands each year, year after year. And those of us old enough need to get our flu shots annually. So this may become just another shot we need to get on a periodic basis, updated to confront the latest variation of virus circulating in the world. To me that's the optimistic outlook.

I think it is possible to have an orgy with three people, if they use their imagination. I also think picking up two guys at a party without prior vetting is risky. Especially given the different ages and status between the two on one side and the third, who could be regarded as a vulnerable quarry, rich, older man and single (in the circumstances). I was struck by the date. On that Friday night in October, I was with a provider in Toronto, who I had met the previous month in Montreal. On that previous occasion, he was joined by another provider who had both advertised on RM. I went through extensive vetting with both prior to our engagement and felt perfectly comfortable in their company. They could have easily killed me if they had had the motivation.As it was, we continue to correspond and will no doubt get together in 2022. My takeaway is that while there are no guarantees in life, a little prudence and taking the pains to set up a date carefully is the best way, given our situation as clients with a huge age difference with the men we wish to engage with socially and more.

Not a scratch ticket win but a $10million lottery jackpot. 20 years ago I knew a couple who were eking out a living conducting estate sales in Montreal. I went to one and it was at a beautiful mansion in Westmount, a wealthy enclave. A friend of mine, an antique dealer, bought two large chandeliers, the type that are cranked down from the ceiling to clean. Several months later, this couple won the jackpot of $10 million in the Canadian lottery 6/49. The first thing they did was buy a mansion even further up the hill than the one I had seen them in a few months earlier earning their commission of a few thousand dollars. A fairy tale really but true. I only saw the husband once a year later in the spring, sporting a Florida tan, dressed expensively, with a $200 haircut and driving the top of the line BMW. Money suited him.

That doesn't sound disgusting to me. Maybe a bit sweet but perhaps the sour cream alleviates that. The NYT just did an article on disgusting as one of the basic human emotions. It's pretty interesting and received lots of comments from readers.

Onr restaurant I remember taking him to had a name like Prunel or something similar.

I've always considered that many Italians are really Latino, after all their roots are Latin, just like the Spanish.So if they look similar, it's in the genes.

Yeah, I used the south end term carelessly. I meant south of the Thames and I only really ventured there once to see an old lover who had moved to London around 1978 to study ballet. He lived in a really cheap set of digs. We rekindled the romance for that week I was in London and I took him to some great restaurants since I was on expense account and he was literally a starving artist.

I can't find the cufflinks but I think the name of the club was Churchill's. It was in the West End and had good food and hostesses, as they were called. London had several such clubs, one other called Winstons. Don't know why they favoured the name of their most famous politician. Apparently it closed in 1980. I was there in 1974 or so. The hostess I was assigned was not the prettiest of the 8 at our table and I dropped her off from my taxi rather than take her home to my hotel. Some of the others went home with their dinner companions.

I once went to a nightclub in the West End whose name I forget but it was a supper club with female escorts. I went with a group of businessmen and after dinner, women were brought to the table and seated beside each guest. Then there was a floor show with various acts. One was a man and woman acrobatic act which involved bringing up guests to participate. I was picked out for one act because I was in my 30s and fit as opposed to all the other men who were middle aged or older at my table. So I was placed on my back on a stage supporting the male on my feet and hands and his female partner standing on his back, all to the sounds or rolling drums. I got a pair of gold cufflinks for being a good sport which I still have somewhere. If I find them I'll let you know the name of the club.

I haven't been to London for decades but when I was there doing a lot of work and enjoying the nightlife, I could distinguish between Mayfair, Knightsbridge and Soho. For me Kensington was a royal palace, not really a neighborhood I identified with as such. Then in broader terms I thought of places as The City, the west end, the east end, the south end. And then there were the places a long way away on the tube which eventually surfaced before you got to your destination like Northwood, which were London's suburbs, where I sometimes went to have dinner with friends. It would be nice to go back to see how things have changed, if they really have.

??? Glove models?

You provide a great service exposing these fake ads. Wonder why RM can't effectively screen them themselves.

I sent text messages on Christmas Eve to three providers I have seen over the last couple of years, all several times, and all overnights or weekends. They all got back to me in hours. All are on my list to see in 2022, even though one is semi retired and only sees former clients from when he was on RM (which happily includes me).

I was under the same impression.
