I used to buy AD years ago at the newsstand when they had articles on houses I liked. I still have all the copies I bought in the '70s and '80s. When I look at them now some of the interiors are still great and others very dated. The latter tended to be trendy designs at the time. The former were more classic, even if cottage looking. I didn't really buy them for ideas on architecture although some of the houses featured were great examples of a particular school or period. I incorporated some of the design ideas over the years in my own homes, of which I have only had a few.

I can only recall two times in the last several years when I brushed my arm across the table in front of myself and spilled red wine on my lap. Each time was in a dimly lit restaurant where I was gesturing to making a point in the conversation with an escort, that I was pretty excited about since we were returning to my hotel after dinner. In the first case, it was an upscale restaurant and a waiter immediately responded to my predicament. In the second it was a bistro and I had to clean up myself but fortunately I was wearing black trousers and the red stain didn't show too much. In both cases my escort friend was very understanding, even though neither was drinking an alcoholic beverage themselves. Given those experiences, I would tend to be very tolerant of an accident made by a waiter if the circumstance arose.

When I read accounts like this I thank God I am a Canadian and have the benefit of our system of Medicare. I know it gets bad press in the US but my experience with it over the many years I have been retired is excellent and the only cost I have to pay is for a portion of my dental expenses, which are low as my teeth are in excellent shape. I pay less than $100 for prescription drugs per year. Any my eye care is totally covered except for the cost of glasses where I have private insurance that covers a portion. And the beauty vof our system is that it is extremely simple to navigate. Sure we pay higher taxes but in the long run we pay less because we don't face these high co-pays and other premiums Americans do.

On a quiet nite in Vegas, if there is such a thing, it might be fun to take a provider on such a trip. 45 minutes might be a little too short but I suppose the option is there for a trip twice as long to ensure a more relaxed pace.

Never heard about him but like the fact he was a successful writer about his occupation. And lived to a great age.

While I'm on the point, I have often noticed that since I only hire tops or top/ versatiles, the price they charge is directly related to their penis size. The larger, the higher the hourly rate, all other things being equal, more or less.

Like the last point. I always use sealed envelopes whether I'm with only one provider or two. When with two, often their rates are different since I always pick the two to work together.

It was interesting that he didn't provide for a literary executor during his lifetime. At least that's what I read in the book. He left a mountain of writing in many forms, novels, short stories, poetry, letters, screenplays, diaries, etc. Similar to Hemingway in a way, who also was a Key West resident for a significant part of his writing career. Talk about two different characters!

I can see the rates RM advertising escorts charge when they choose to do so. Maybe because I'm a premium client and pay for the privilege.

Interesting that you lived in the same building as Tenn. He was such a peripatetic character that it takes some concentration in reading his diary as to where he is at that particular moment, except for his frequent references to landmarks. The only place he truly called home was Key West where he bought his first home on Duncan Street. He added to it a studio and swimming pool. He later bought a house in New Orleans, where he had lived for much of his early years as a struggling writer. As his writing became more remunerative and the movie deals were made on his plays and stories, he would rent lavish accomodation in Rome and Madrid, two favorite haunts, and stay in the best hotels in Paris, London, Istanbul and elsewhere. He would pick up and leave at the drop of the hat. It was typical when he died that it was in a New York Hotel, having just returned from a short trip to Europe, before which he had been in the States. Late in his career, he even spent a short time as writer in residence in Vancouver BC at the university there.

Well, that's NYC for you

That was Louis XIV, the Sun King, who said that, in regards to his profligate spending of France's treasury. It came true but took another generation for the heads of the monarchy and aristocracy to roll.

Would that have been near Carlsbad Springs?

I was diagnosed with prostate cancer when I was 60 and opted to have my prostate removed, based on the level of my Gleason score. 14 years later I am cancer free and while no longer capable of ejaculating, I can still orgasm. When one is 60, 15 years can seem like a long time but trust me, it goes quickly, especially when you are having a good time, which I am. I would hate to be fighting the terminal stages of cancer, which I might well have been doing at this point, had I just let things go.

There is a big legal drama playing out in France right now about an Arab gardener convicted years ago of killing his rich socialite female boss in her villa in the south of France. She had allegedly written in her own blood “Omar m’a tuer” before dying. Only problem was that it should have been written “Omar m’a tuee” ( last e accented). This grammatical error underlines the social divide in France where the elite speak and write a refined French while the lower classes employ careless grammar and spelling. The error is being claimed as an attempt to frame the gardener by someone who was not of the victim’s class. Apparently an attempt was made in 1901 to simplify the French language but was nixed by those in the elite and L’Academy Francais who wanted to preserve their social distinction. This drama never played out in far away Quebec. The elite there have always spoken the correct French.

We are so far behind in getting charging stations installed here in Canada that I don't think I will have an e-car in my lifetime.

I vividly remember hiring last summer(2020) when cases were low in Canada and there was no vaccine. I took several chances with providers both having them visit me for overnights or weekends and me doing the same in Toronto where I would go. I would go through mental agonies when I thought about it for two weeks afterwards wondering if I caught it. The clouds would lift on the 14th day or so when I realized I was in the clear. Since the vaccines, I have continued to hire on the same basis except I have added Montreal to the itinerary. I don't worry so much as I try to reassure myself that if I catch it it will be less severe. But I am in the older group but healthy relatively for my age. I've got good lungs having never smoked and still swim vigorously several times a week.

I'm still hiring but only once a month for a weekend of 2 or 3 providers. That's because I have to travel now to the big neighbouring cities rather than have them come to see me in my small town. We'll see what the winter brings.

Agreed. And I'm a bottom. Butt always appreciate a nice ass.

I would have phrased the title "Is a Provider's Place...". In my case I rarely do incalls with providers; I have them come to my upscale hotel where we can be comfortable and enjoy things like great king size beds, marble bathrooms with glass showers, bathtubs etc. But the odd time I have done incalls when the providers have special features like slings, which are difficult to set up in hotel rooms. Lol.

Well, I've been with Gabriel Clark several times and he kisses very nicely, better than just on the cheeks (pun intended).😈

Passive income with no work means trust fund baby. Your parents or grandparents did the work.

He has a short ad. Says unvaccinated. Followed by Vaccinated will die soon. But the ad is expired. Maybe he died. LOL

Yes, I have both done so and had other's contact me. Depending on the contact, I will give more or less details of my experience. It's important how you come across in the initial contact. After all it's strangers talking to each other. Discretion is always the best way.

Does that count on the clock?
