If this is a fake ad, someone should report it to RM. Their policy is they will remove the ad if one can prove the pics used are fake. Is the Instagram profile legit and a different person from the escort going by Rue Hunt?

I get the point that both countries are heading in the direction of a second wave, which the graph shows, but Canada is starting from a much lower figure of new cases each day per million of population. Given that most cases in both countries are community driven now rather than by travellers, which was the case in the first month before the border was closed, bending the curve once again should be easier in Canada than the States but that will depend on peoples’ actions going forward.

This is a very misleading graph, visually speaking. The number of cases per million, depicted on the left side of the graph, are not scaled proportionately whereas the number of days counted along the bottom are. Therefore, on the right side, which is the most recent data, Canada appears to be about two thirds as high as the USA but is only about one fifth In reality (less than 30 per million versus much more than 100 per million for the States. Look at day 140, where Canada has fewer than 15 cases and the USA 200. It looks like Canada has about half the US number just looking at the chart.

Interesting, as earlier reports had indicated it was a disaster. And I suppose their economy has not taken the same hit as those countries that completely shut down except for essential services. The other benefit was that the Swedes generally had a more pleasant summer than most others labouring under unnatural restrictions to normal socializing.

I’m the same. Rarely do less than 2 hours. That way there is time to socialize over a glass of wine or a beer if it is a new hire. If a repeat, a chat to get caught up on events since the last time. If I offer dinner after, I usually negotiate it beforehand and offer about $150 or roughly half the hourly rate on top of the two hour rate. And of course, a great meal at a fine restaurant. Most of those who accept actually drink very little at dinner and some only bottled water. These are guys who are watching their diet and fitness regimes, which of course I highly appreciate as the results show.

No, I guess my comment was based on the fact that one of his mugshots looked like him in his porn vids, with the same haircut. The others are less flattering and hard to judge how old they are. He looks quite different in some of them. But no, I have no other details on his run-ins with the law except what was listed under his profile on that mugshot site.

Just search ‘Cade Maddox mugshot‘ and the post will come right up. It was in the Jeremy Walker thread.

We were just discussing Cade in the thread about hiring pornstars the other day. His mug shots were included in the series of porn actors who have run afoul of the law.

Despite his recent travails with law enforcement, Cade would still be on my short list of potential hires if I were in Palm Springs right now.

The guy certainly is a talented performer from what I saw on the video clip above. Vegas will always need talent such as his. His profile on RM has a pretty restricted list of activities and none are overtly sexual. Maybe he is banking on that. Of course one explicit review would blow all that but if all he does is stripping modeling etc there likely will not be such a review.

My late mother had an expression she often used to express her philosophy about health. “The money you give to the grocer, you don’t give to the doctor”. During this pandemic, more than ever before, I consider the money I give to escorts (or providers as some call them), is more than compensated by the human touch and emotions we share during our all too brief sessions from my point of view. Yes, these sessions are expensive, since most of mine are overnights or weekends because of my living distant from large urban centres, but after each date, my outlook on life and sense of well-being, fortify me for what is coming next. And by looking forward to another date in a month or so, my daily living is bearable. So many other aspects of normal life are restricted now that having the memories of recent pleasures and anticipating future ones not too distant gives me a reason to enjoy each day. BTW I don’t haggle over rates. But I take them into account in my hiring practices.

No.

Reminds me of what a late uncle of mine, who was a university professor, said once when commenting on the modern theatre,” I don’t much care for the theatre these days, it’s all about sex, violence and coarse language. I can get all that at home.”

I should have mentioned that the books I favour tend to be biographies or histories. I have a broad interpretation of histories so they can include all sorts of stories of human events, art, theatre, dance, music and travel. A smattering of the classics too. In my library, I have the 25 volumes of the Nineth Edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica (1875-89) which is known as the Scholars Edition even today as some of the most famous scholars of the late nineteenth century contributed to its production. It’s hard to beat for historical details and easy to look up as one full volume is devoted to an index. It does take a lot of room on my shelves though and over the years has been a bitch to move! Knowing our collective history as the human species helps to make more sense of what we read in the newspapers every day as it provides context to current events and a valuable perspective to judge what is going on now against what has happened in our past.

I subscribe online to the NYT and Toronto‘s Globe & Mail newspapers. I also have a subscription to the local small town newspaper and one which is a weekly. Here in Canada we have an excellent public news organization that operates Television broadcast, radio and now digital news called the CBC or Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. I read all these sources pretty religiously and listen to the radio as well since the CBC has numerous interesting programs. Together with the extensive reading of books that I constantly have on the go, I consider myself a well informed citizen.

Those escorts are hard to find.

I was in NY last fall and walked over to the Marriott Marquis just to have a look at it after 32 years. It looked much the same as I remembered it with the glass elevators and towering lobby that seemed to go right up to the top floor. When I stayed there I was up around the 19th or 20th floor and the hallways were exterior so you could look down to the ground floor. I had never been in a hotel like that before. But I wouldn’t stay there again as it is not my preferred style of hotel.

The first time I paid for sex was with a Moroccan I had picked up at a gay bar in Geneva and taken home. He was a stunner in looks and the sex was pretty good. I was youngish and had never hired but before he left he asked me for a “gift”. Misunderstanding the situation, I offered him a box of chocolates (this being Switzerland of course) but he declined the gift. He went on to explain he wanted money. I was flabbergasted but scraped together about 60 SWF, all that I had in the apartment that night. He said that wasn’t enough. I was starting to resent him and just wanted this guy out of my place. I found some French francs that were only worth a fifth of a Swiss franc and gave him all of them. It was an impressive pile of those somewhat over large bills that in reality only amounted to less than the Swiss francs I had given him. However he seemed appeased and left, never to be seen again. In a sense it was more of a shakedown than a hire. That was around 1983. Four years later I was in NY and went to Rounds, a place I had visited with a friend in 1982. I knew the great looking guys at the front bar were for hire (surrounded by guys that look like me now). So I struck up a convo with a beautiful Black man who was dressed like a college student. Really clean cut, tall and gorgeous. We went back to my hotel, the Marriott on Times Square, which was pretty new then and had the perfect setup for taking someone to your room discreetly. When the young lad took off his pants, I could see I was going to be in for a fun time! His fee was $150, which in the mid 80’s was on the high side but worth every penny. In the true sense, he was really my first hire. After him, I decided I was more into younger men and started hiring on a regular basis.

I would have named the film “A trip to heaven on a Black rocket ship”.

Interesting article but it‘s last year’s news. The fire season started earlier this year because of the record heat levels in California and burned in areas as far north as the Canadian border in the west coast states. The moratorium imposed by the regulators in December is set to expire this December and only applies to dropping existing homeowners, not taking on new policies. As I understnd it it also only applies to people living in ZIP code areas that were burned in 2017/18 fires and not the new areas burnt this year. And of course if governments force insurers to incur catastrophic losses, in the longer run the companies themselves will abandon the business and protection will then fall on the taxpayers.

Actually I think this is a sign of the new normal regarding insurance in California, given the increasing ferocity of wildfires due to climate change. Been reading about it recently in the papers.

To clarify, after my step-mother died and left him a pile of money. LOL

Interesting. My gay step-brother worked as a teacher years ago in Phoenix but chose to live in Scottsdale with his Black lover (He was white). After she died they moved to Ft. Lauderdale and he took an early retirement.

I certainly like giving head but I want the top to be an active participant, and not just at the climax.

My God, are people still shaking hands where you live?
