  1. This felt like a Tim Burton film creatively castrated by Disney.
  2. More isn't always better, but I will say to each their own. If this makes them happy and it's not hurting anyone, go for it. I've long since figured out that a lavish wedding day means next to nothing when you're talking long-term commitment. A friend of mine- a former popular male escort- had a massive wedding in Manhattan recently (covered by the press) and is now living hand to mouth just to pay off the event. I guess it was all done on credit cards. It was all for show. A very expensive show. I don't understand that.
  3. If you haven't yet, please do. If you currently do and can give more, please do. The traffic to this website speaks volumes about how many people find it useful and a daily dose of something they need. Daddy has been here, holding down the fort and moving things forward when he can. The least we can do is keep the ship upright. https://www.companyofmen.org/threads/the-data-are-what-the-data-are.126213/
  4. HR is rockin' out with his cock out... Good for him I don't see the need to shit on his Cornflakes, as he's just sharing a bit of fun.
  5. Yes. $40/day. And if you're deciding between the Encore and Wynn spa, go with Encore. It's bigger, has better wet facilities and if you're doing treatments, has much better therapists.
  6. Update on the K-spa in Vegas, Imperial Spa: Under new ownership and they're letting the place go to hell. Rarely has hot water. Dirty steamroom. Having to rely on a lot of Grouponing to stay afloat. On the plus side, it's basically a gay bathhouse on the men's side. Play is out in the open. Staff doesn't seem to stop it or really care.
  7. I lust after very few guys in this world, but he's one of them. The shaved head, the thick neck chain, wearing high tops when he fucks and the sincere intensity he brings in either pounding a guy or getting pounded. It's hot seeing a guy who looks so in the moment in front of the camera. A welcome change from 95% of other guys in porn.
  8. In the immortal brown-nosing words of Ed McMahon... [MEDIA=giphy]x88e1awUi05by[/MEDIA]
  9. In an unregulated, somewhat wild west industry, you've got to take a lot of things into consideration before jumping in head-first. If you have a lot to lose, don't make incredibly stupid decisions. Stop for a second. Think a few steps ahead. Make wise choices.
  10. But isn't it sometimes fun just to watch people chase their tail?
  11. The cash-rape scene is real. While not the usual fetish, there's a market for guys who look/talk the part to profit from gents who get off on it. The enduring caveat remaining: Never forget that just because you're playing the dominant role doesn't mean you can't easily be replaced. Read the room, know when to back off and don't piss off your golden goose.
  12. It wasn't you who confused the topic. It was everyone else who veered the ship off course. Welcome to the MC
  13. I believe this signals the end of the world. 'When brassy chorus girls try to sing soprano-proper, lions begin eating Christians'
  14. This shit is getting as confusing as hanky codes
  15. My advice to visitors is always this: You don't go to KW for beautiful beaches. They're all man-made, the water quality isn't fantastic and there's a lot of seaweed year-round. It's because of the way the island curves into the ocean. Ft Zach is probably the nicest of the bunch, but don't go expecting Miami Beach or a Caribbean look. My advice is to book an afternoon on the BluQ, have Capt Steve and Mo take you out to a beautiful sandbar, get naked, swim, drink, eat, make some new friends. It's a nice way to spend the day. http://www.bluqkeywest.com/
  16. Re: PURE before PrEP. It definitely seems to make sense, but I'd be interested to see more longterm research on it. I use active charcoal capsules in my regular supplement routine and my ID doc told me to space that out from when I take my Truvada (4-6 hours).
  17. Interesting new case of PrEP not working, but there's some fine print to this case. [MEDIA=twitter]1109389622558232576[/MEDIA] It appears this guy was dosing it off label and on-demand, not the one-a-day that is recommended by Gilead.
  18. Having been nearly a local in KW for the last 10 years, here are some suggestions: Old Town is where you probably want to be for walkability as well as look & feel of what you'd imagine Key West to look like. New Town has cheaper lodging, great local eateries and all of the hotels there have been redone top-to-tail, but it's a little less quaint. Expect to pay $350+ a night, in-season, if you want to stay in Old Town. I'd recommend The Marker, H2O Suites, Marquesa, The Saint and The Orchid Key Inn. All GLBT-friendly, but not exclusively gay. If you're wanting that, Island House is the frisky way to stay and Alexander House is probably the classiest and best designed spot. There are a ton of great eats in KW. It's become a huge draw to the island. Marquesa, Christopher's at LaTeDa, Sandy's Cafe, Camilles (who recently sold the business, so that's an AYOR suggestion), Antonias, Trattoria (I prefer the newtown location to Duval St), Santiago's Bodega, Firefly (best fried chicken in KW) and Half Shell Raw Bar all have repeatedly done me well. Everyone tends to get a little 'Keys Disease' the first time they go. It's an incredible little place. Sure, it's gone more mainstream in becoming a cruise ship port, but there's still a ton of wacky character left.
  19. Foster doesn't have the right voice for the role. She'd be equally as annoying to listen to as Jackman, as she can also come off as very one-note. Osnes isn't everyone's cup of tea, but you can't deny she would sing the hell out of the role. My real pick for Marian is Kate Baldwin. She would own those songs. Her voice is magical.

  21. Prednisone is known to have a slew of ugly side effects. As my doc once said to me, if you don't have an extreme need for it, don't take it. I know a lot of people in the theatre world who take it to help power through performances when they don't feel well, but don't want to call out.
  22. No doubt. And I agree with Rudin for this move... Very, very smart. Equally as smart as his decision to put Bette in Dolly. For what it costs to mount a show on Broadway now, I can't fault producers for wanting as close to a sure bet as possible.
  23. I believe you hit the nail on the head for me. His singing has no dynamic. It's just blaring and nasal.
  24. Well said. More so, how uninteresting the world would be if we all agreed on everything.
