Liam Oh...oh...oh..oh! He's Ray in the show, my favorite character.

Definitely hot. I'd like to meet him.

Did they let you try it out in the store?

I guess that I am the odd man out here. I am not at all attracted to him.

As the person who founded this event some 20 years ago, I would like to express an opinion. We recently lauded @Oliver for reaching the age of 90, and it was an opportunity for us to show our respect and affection for him. It is with that respect and affection that I suggest he turn the next Weekend over to someone else. Oliver can attend without any responsibilities and simply enjoy himself. @purplekow has expressed an interest in handling the next event and did a good job of ascertaining how much interest there is in the next one. A lot, it seems. If my suggestion doesn't go over well with Oliver, then perhaps he can make it a joint project with purplekow, who is based in Palm Springs. Many people will invest time and money in making it to Palm Springs, and we all want the event to go without any problems. Having two people working together ensures continuity. There, that's my opinion.

I went to Time Square Mens Spa last Friday. I called first and got a recording saying that they were very busy and to call back in 15 minutes. By then I was at the spa, which was totally dark and a sign blocked entry saying that they were closed.

FOr me, threads like this one keep me away from the site. Too many trite threads rather than mature adult discussions.

But then, you don’t hire, do you?

I walked by one today in Chinatown. It was advertising 2 hour specials for $89. Didn’t get the name, but not far from Mott St.

I am looking in Manhattan.

There is or was a Palm Springs Men’s Spa. I enjoyed my one experience there, but it was a while ago. Do a search here and it should come up.

I need a skilled masseur more than I need a sexy masseur. Any ideas for Manhattan ?

Great article on a topic too long ignored. I hope it helps.

I rooted for the Yankees and then the Mariners, and the Blue Jays beat them both. So naturally I won't be rooting for them in the World Series. GO DODGERS!

The Guardian today takes a look at the seeming fact that male actors go commando, even when showing up for a fitting! From guardian.com: Jenny Beavan is a living legend in the world of film. A three-time Oscar-winning costume designer, she gave Merchant Ivory films their distinctive look but was equally responsible for the visual onslaught of Mad Max: Fury Road. In 2016, her decision to attend various awards shows wearing unconventional fashion captured the zeitgeist twice; first when Stephen Fry called her a “bag lady” and was forced off Twitter, and second when a clip of Alejandro González Iñárritu glowering as she passed him went viral. In other words, Jenny Beavan can do whatever the hell she likes. And she has. In an interview with the Telegraph, Beavan has decided to offer us a peek into her working world, by revealing that actors don’t wear pants very often. “It’s astonishing the number of male actors who don’t wear underwear,” she said. “I’ve had to go out and buy them pants – not Calvin Klein or anything like that; I usually get them from Marks – otherwise they try to hide themselves behind a chair looking marginally awkward. I think, ‘For God’s sake, if I was going to a fitting and trying on second-hand clothes I’d wear some pants’”. She has a point. Being fitted for costumes is an integral part of an actor’s job. Indeed, it is only during this process that many of them begin to understand the role that they have agreed to play. So with that in mind – if you knew that a vital aspect of your professional life will involve taking off your trousers in front of a respected head of department – wouldn’t you try to remember to put on some underpants before you left the house? Especially in this day and age. The #MeToo movement has done wonders in the last eight years, illuminating the sorts of abuses of power that the industry used to tolerate. And while dropping your trousers to reveal that you’re not wearing anything underneath may rank fairly low on the spectrum of showbiz impropriety, the culprits are still putting costume designers in a position of potential embarrassment. You’d think that in today’s culture, in which an exposed penis can end a career in a heartbeat, they’d all frankly be too scared to go pantless. And, moral outrage aside, why? Why forgo underwear in any circumstance? Underwear is really useful. It offers support and protection in equal measure. Have none of these actors ever had to break into an unexpected sprint? Testicular torsion is a real thing, and can in extreme cases lead to injuries so severe that removal is the only option. Are these actors so cavalier in their attitudes to free-swinging genitalia that they’re willing to risk testicular amputation in the pursuit of their favoured lifestyle? It’s not worth speculating … Daniel Day Lewis in A Room With a View (1986). Photograph: Goldcrest/Kobal/REX/Shutterstock Have none of them ever had to rush away from the toilet before they’ve been able to satisfactorily conclude their post-urination shake? Has a DPD driver never knocked on their front door while they were mid-stream? Has a smoke alarm never gone off? Have they never heard their toddler squeal “Look daddy, a knife!” from another room? You’d have to assume not, because if any of these things had happened, they would understand that a major benefit of underwear is to act as a drip blotter. Underwear is often the only reason men don’t walk around with little wet patches on their trousers. And actors are willing to relinquish this? Crazy. Obviously, the worst thing to do would be to systematically parse every project on which Jenny Beavan has worked and try to figure out which actors she is referring to. This is a woman who has been in gainful employment for close to half a century, and the list of actors she has worked with is practically endless. She worked with Daniel Day-Lewis on A Room With a View, with Anthony Hopkins on The Remains of the Day, with Robert Downey Jr on Sherlock Holmes, with Frankie Howerd on HMS Pinafore. She could have been referring to any one of them – or none of them at all – but the identities don’t really matter. We are clearly in the midst of a pantless actor epidemic. May god have mercy on their laundry.

Do you work hard to start threads that will mean nothing to you? You are not going to LA, so why bother?

Good luck with your inquiry. I haven't been to Louisville in decades, but when I did go I liked it.

Surely one of the weirdest threads yet.

" I took a box out of my freezer than had about $100000 dollars in 100 dollar bills in it" Yes, I will go to lunch with you!!!

I switched from Ozempic to Mounjaro and think that Mounjaro is the better choice. Yes, I lost weight on Ozempic, but didn't lost any of my cravings, specifically Häagen-Dazs® chocolate ice cream With Mounjaro I have no interest in HD chocolate ice cream, but keep my attraction to chocolate milk. Fairlife chocolate milk has 12g sugar v. most chocolate milks 1t 28gm. So it's an improvement, but I would also like to reduce that craving. My appetite is hardy, especially in the mornings. Nonetheless, I am down about 60 pounds on the two drugs.

How long are the nonstop flights? I flew CRU?LAX and it took 12 1/2 hours.

I really don't get why this thread is of any relevance here.

I couldn't finish it as I was totally bored.

Since I switched to Mounjaro my craving for Haagen Daz chocolate ice cream has disappeared. I still want the chocolate milk though.

Aleve is an NSAID, is it not? NSAIDs are a whole different category with side effects of their own. Especially if you have kidney disease- very dngerous.
