Havana is beautiful. It's sad seeing the admin once again make it tougher to visit. While cruise ships might now be out, if you can find a way, visit while you can.

I think it's sorta cute when the usual group of ya'll team up to try to troll. It's like watching a few old, embittered guys have that momentary blast of being young again. Keep up the good work boys

Raindrops on roses. Whiskers on kittens. Bright copper kettles. Warm woolen mittens. These are a few of my favorite things

Not one of my clients, but Hatch outed himself several times over the years, talking about his time with rentboys. He never hid it. Anything else?

Outing clients? Never happened. Proof please... I'll wait.

THOSE CX DAN DAN NOODLES THO The day suites that overlook the tarmac at The Pier are my favorite. I'm an equipment geek.

I usually say fuck all to any form of political correctness, but you do realize that this term has been dead for awhile. The catch-all now seems to be Asian. https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=112465167 However, you are all still welcome to call me an overgrown ginger Paddy

It's why I stopped using my GE and NEXUS cards as any form of ID outside of an airport. It's not worth trying to explain the program. Passport card seems to be the one that everyone understands right off the bat.

Well, you can see how well that did for Richard Gere. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/richard-gere-gerbil/

Re: Twitter. You don't need to put out porn to be relevant... You need to have a (figurative) voice that people want to listen to. If you sell yourself as a fuckhole or a piece of meat, that's how someone is going to treat you. If you can piece together relevant, funny, interesting tweets, some great clients can be had from seeing that. Too many guys think that posting low-quality porn vids of themselves is going to land them business. Do you really think that long-term, higher-end clients want to be seen with someone who's got bareback videos all over the web? No. It sounds as if you're at a crossroads. Clearly, you are intelligent and have the drive: You will figure this out. My main piece of advice is to not get on the porn hamster wheel... and wear SPF.

The generalization and platitudes in this response are interesting. Culture will never be snuffed out. It will change. It will ebb & flow. You can rally against change, but know that no matter what you do, you will never truly stop what's happening.

Even though I've seen this show more times than I can count, the starry casting got me to buy tickets. https://www.hollywoodbowl.com/events/performances/583/2019-07-26/into-the-woods

Competition with 'younger clients?' That's a new one for me. I'm an escort. I see men of all kinds. If you're working guy who's discriminating based on age or look, you're an asshole. Just be you. YOU should be good enough for the best of us.

Sorta, but not entirely. For example, American just announced they're stopping the 'Oasis' project on their 737-8s because of extremely poor customer feedback. https://onemileatatime.com/american-suspends-737-refresh-program/ Premium hard and soft product on airlines have never been better (premium economy, business, first). It's simply economy that's taken a backseat, and frankly, can you blame them? People expect far too much from their $300 coast-to-coast ticket. They have no loyalty. They want steak on a bologna budget. The 'golden era' of flying worked for a variety of reasons that don't exist today- most importantly, the cost of a ticket then was much, much more expensive (even for coach). I'm just playing devil's advocate here. I fly a lot. I'm a realist when it comes to my opinions on commercial air travel.

You're turning me on with this kinda talk. ... Name a vintage. Get me rock hard.

I mean, sure, but highly unlikely until the price of jet fuel comes crashing down

Saw this again last night. I wanted to revisit it on an inexpensive TDF ticket. I still dislike it, perhaps even more so: I felt that no one in the show was capable of singing this music in the style it's presented except for the singularly-enjoyable Ali Stroker. The band was talented, but the score was ruined for me due to the wildly changed orchestrations. The set looked like a bingo hall and Home Depot had an illegitimate child. The Dream Ballet was a hot mess. Someone trying too hard to make a statement. The blackouts. The video. The cornbread and chili. All unnecessary. Community/university theatre moves, imo. This whole show was directed for young people who would immediately post on social media that they 'were shook' after seeing it. This should have stayed at St Ann's where it's more suited, as it's really not a Broadway caliber show.

This thread will end well.

Unless it's a trained, papered service dog (blind, deaf, true physical disability), no animal needs to be out of a carrier on a commercial airliner. I can only hope that DL has to cough up a gigantic sum of damages on this, causing them to nut up and pass some actual regulations on these so-called 'emotional support' animals. Agreed. Take a Xanax and have a glass of pinot grigio like the rest of us.

Awww. Pulling context from such a long time ago. What a precious Fox News tactic

This. 100% this. I'd really say it's a human trait, overall. Envy and pride have always been some of the most popular of the Seven Deadly.

Gay men forgive anything if the picture if pretty

... And yet, people will still contact him for meets. Hence: With the right pictures, guys will forgive/forget just about anything.

I believe they have the money... Just not the attention span to see it through. Bottom line, once it's on the web, it's never truly yours again.
