  1. Don't know. The concierge/phone-ahead service is new enough that protocols haven't really been established. Putting in an order just 20 minutes ago, imho, wouldn't qualify you to jump to the head of the line. I can think of many times I've waited that long at the counter. Michigan's drivers license offices (called Secretary of State in Michigan, not DMV) have set up concierge service and appointments, and they are definitely working out the kinks. I tried making an appointment just to take my father to change his address, and the first available appt was a week away. We tried "get in line online" and they gave me a time a few hours from the time I made it (which is fine), but then kept texting updates about the time changing wildly. I headed out when it said my wait was an hour (time enough to pick up my Dad and get to the office) and the time changed several times on the drive, both earlier and later. We did get through the process pretty quickly once we got there, seeing my 86-year-old father there may have made them bump us up quickly once they saw him. On a not-too-far tangent, if I found a deli counter where the people behind it actually hustled, it would have my loyal business forever.
  2. Give it a while. Like 10 years. It'll be funny eventually.
  3. I can deal with perfectionism, my dad is like that in many ways. The "could not refrain from commenting on it" part would drive me nuts, though.
  4. That's Steven Strait, currently on the just-cancelled "The Expanse". I went through a phase of collecting his pictures :-) That's from when he was a good 10 years younger than he is now. Curious, I haven't watched "The Expanse", is his chest shaved in that?
  5. This pic... https://78.media.tumblr.com/c20fa32770d225aefb96eb3b18407c6d/tumblr_p2fk2eeY921ufbuvoo7_1280.jpg reminds me of the Sean Cody "Ben & Jamie" scene. At the climax, when Ben comes, he pulls out of Jamie's mouth & I'd swear he's deliberately aiming for Jamie's armpit, then licks it up.
  6. Family can be so difficult sometimes :-(
  7. Our high school gym class was a free-for-all. Very little organized activity, just let us loose in the gym to play basketball or whatever we wanted. There was a whole year where a bunch of us would play chess in the corner.
  8. There will be some of us who will think the parents were Trekkies. http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/USS_Kelvin
  9. in our city they'll pick those up every week. It goes into a city yard where it's made into mulch, and there are a half-dozen spots around the city (parking lots for parks, mostly) where they'll drop it off the mulch and residents can come help themselves. It goes quickly, they re-drop it off every couple of weeks.
  10. down for me, too, but honestly, it's rare that I check that site.
  11. I've got to admit I am just checking this post for the drama now. I don't even remember what Cody Dean looks like.
  12. years ago I was at a hotel downtown after the office Christmas party and arranged to have an escort come up after the party was over. Security didn't let him up on his own, they called my room and asked me to come get him. I had the feeling he'd been there a lot and they were not happy about it.
  13. Stealing this from @marylander1940 's post in Battle of the Bulge:
  14. Oh, I don't know - that picture says to me that the guy on the right is about to teach the guy on the left how much fun it can be with another guy.
  15. "Anne Frank, a nun, and a hooker walk into a bar..."
  16. This is a link to a facebook video, not sure how well it will work... https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=1897275123625089
  17. I haven't been able to bring myself to remove the bookmarks for all the sites that have gone down since SESTA. I did delete my rentboy.com bookmark eventually, but for now, I've just in the past few days moved a bunch into an "Obsolete" folder. Anyone else as nostalgic/hopeful as I am?
  18. Bob Paris & Rod Jackson. it had to be done...
  19. I thought this was about keyless entry - this is about keyless ignition. Since I've been a faithful used-car buyer since 2005, I haven't (yet) had a keyless ignition car. Hell, a remote fob to unlock the car is a novelty to me. This line... scares me a bit. My car has an alarm if I leave it and the lights are still on. I did enjoy the car I had back in the late 90's with the keypad/combination lock to get in. I was in better shape then & wearing tighter pants, and I could leave my keys in the car. Plus, I used the prefix code from the Reliant in Wrath of Khan as my entry code. Easy to remember.
  20. I don't see a Roast Turkey recipe in Julia Child's cookbook, so I'm claiming it for America. :-)
  21. Yikes. I've gotten a bunch of requests for more info about a guy I mentioned I'd seen last year, I responded to most of them (just cut & paste the same response, so no big deal), but I've never had the info forwarded back to the escort. Thanks for the heads up.
  22. You're talking about threads where someone with no history on the forum suddenly speaks up with a great review of an escort/masseur? Yeah, I take most of those with a grain of salt.
  23. I keep coming back to these three gifs.. http://hairynotbeary.tumblr.com/post/173862422060
  24. I don't know if this forum uses software written specifically for it, or something that's generic forum software. I suspect the latter, given the "forum software by xenforo" at the bottom of the page. https://xenforo.com/ I suspect it takes a fair amount of tech-savvy to install and keep it up and running, not to mention the moderation duties.
