Yeah, I moved on to that after Uncle Wiggly.

The Uncle Wiggly series. My dad would read them to me before I started reading on my own.

I haven’t been to Montreal in almost a year and with the latest news on the pandemic front will not be going for the foreseeable future, which breaks my heart as I love the city. Even with the rollout of vaccines early in the new year, it’s going to take months to get the situation under control. I am fortunate to live in a green zone with few cases locally but it is quiet here in terms of seeing escorts. sigh

Don’t know if this has been cited yet but a funny remark by Tallula Bankhead: I’ll see you at 5:30 to make love to you, but if I’m late, start without me.

Can we talk about the pandemic here or is that too “political”?

Whenever I think I might be falling in love with an escort, it’s my healthy sense of personal worth that reminds me I can’t afford it. Lol

My furry friend and I always start out the night sleeping together. Then at some point he goes to the other bedroom. I’ve had escorts do the same thing.

I got the joke immediately as I was lying in bed beside my furry friend when I read it.

Are those the so-called amateur films?

How are things going in SF with this new shutdown? Are clients keen to see visiting escorts? I can’t imagine it’s business as usual.

Do you think the platforms are comparable? I don’t see that.

It appears Pornhub is on its way to overtaking Facebook in popularity with the masses. LOL

Nicholas Kristof has written about Pornhub in his column in the NYT today.

What kind of a set-up is that?

That’s what I was suggesting.

I’m a bottom but I have always felt I had broad shoulders, metaphorically speaking, to take on any burden.

You can always look the other way while accepting his member.

The only case I knew of personally of AIDS causing dementia was with a friend back in the 90’s. He was diagnosed with AID’s along with his lover in 1990 before there was an effective treatment with the drug cocktail that came along a few years later. His older lover succumbed in 1992 but he survived longer and started the cocktail around 1995 which brought him back from near death. He lived another 5 years but his brain had suffered so much damage that he developed dementia and stopped taking his drugs regularly. He was only 46 when he died.

“There I was just walking down the street, Singing do wa diddy Diddy wa diddy do” or something like that.

I’ve never asked for their real names but have found out some when they wanted e transfers for travel expenses and in one case a deposit. I have always respected their wishes as to which name to call them when we are together. I only found out one real name of a provider I saw a few times several years ago and that was when someone here posted a site which gives bio info on hundreds of porn actors, some who also escort. I have since tried to reach him on RM but his listing is suspended but I used the name I called him and which is his screen name on Cockyboys. One escort had a RM name Tom but the first time he came to see me at my house, after about half an hour he gave me his real name, since he was talking about his career as a child actor on television. He even showed me a picture of himself when he was 6 and cute as a button. I have used his real name since then.

Gee, don’t you eat breakfast before starting to work? i couldn’t face the day before a complete meal after my morning ablutions.

You are right in thinking gays see the AIDS epidemic differently today than back then when we were living through it. My first visit to San Francisco was in 1979 and I went back in 1980 and 81. I can’t remember clearly now but it was either after the second or the third trip that I heard of the new strange cancer affecting gays there. Of course soon the stories were coming out of New York as well and then other places. In the next decade I lost quite a few of my close friends and former lovers. One ex told me he was infected just a year after we broke up and that was in 1987. The rest of us who survived just carried on and adapted to the new realities. We were fortunate to have been spared. The new drugs developed to treat HIV were a game changer for those infected and then PreP has changed things again for those who are not infected. And so life goes on. I read a lot of history and recently I have been reading accounts of the Second World War and Korea. The soldiers who survived and came home for the most part moved on with their lives and didn’t want to talk about their experiences of losing buddies who fought along side them. I think for ourselves, it is also too painful to bring back these memories of those who will not grow old with us and be able to reminisce of the good old days.

I like his stable of actors but get bored with the films that have a cast of a dozen or so. Too much going on to the point of distraction and no chemistry allowed to develop between just two or three men getting it on. So many of his films just have too many cast members.

I bought my first house at 30 , near the start of my career and, like you, kept it for my entire working life, which only lasted 25 years as I retired at 50. Since then, I have lived in a couple of condos, a rental house in Florida, and now my retirement home. All along the way, I have acquired furniture and furnishings and discarded some as well. My rule is to keep the good, get rid of the junk, and hang onto the sentimental. The good I consider to be good furniture including quality antiques and modern pieces, good furnishings such as crystal glasses, fine bone china and silverware but also quality everyday dishes and pots and pans. In my case I bought a lot of fine art, paintings and sculptures, and only edited a few pieces by sending them to auction. I inherited a lot of fine books and bought additions to my library reflecting my own interests. I have an awful hard time with ditching books even after I have read them. I got rid of all my school books including undergraduate and law texts, except for some valuable ones which I donated to my law school, which was happy to offer me a generous tax receipt. The sentimental things are the hardest to get rid of. If they are things I can display, they sit there reminding me daily of my past. If they are not, I file them away in boxes and drawers, to look at once in a while. If I die in my home, my heirs are going to have a hell of a time getting rid of all this stuff.

I know at least one Canadian escort who has been travellling back and forth to the States by plane, which is allowed. Not by land border crossings though. When they return, they are supposed to quarantine for 14 days. So this guy, by his schedule, seems to be following the rules.
