They sure did. We soon had a "posse" of guys joining us at The G, and then we had group dinners at various Times Square restaurants. Our enthusiasm caught on here too. It was so much fun to go to The Gaiety and end up at Stella's, watching the pros work.

So I found a thread I contributed to from 18 years ago. Think about that. 18 years. I've grown old here. And, of course, I am not the only one. Our days of going to The Gaiety in New York, Stella's, etc. etc. et cetera seem so far gone, but it sure is nice to have a record of the fun we had. Present times, pandemic aside, seem so tame. My younger self was so much more active and in such better shape than I am now. I can only look with envy. And for all of the guys who are aging with me on the forums, thank you. I couldn't have stuck with it but for the encouragement and support from you. I won't name names, but management gets credit too. Thank You! Who else has been here for a long time? You can define that as you wish! ?

Hooboy recognized @Cooper's talent right away and made him the moderator of this forum.

This looks to be the first Gaiety review by NY Observer. Early on, he wrote the reviews, but when he quit, @Cooper stepped up to the plate. Sounds familiar, huh?

I haven't seen that, but I like the idea.

Too much ink!

They have been closed since March, 2020, and they stand by watching other businesses open. Indoor dining is okay, but indoor nudity is not? https://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/ny-strip-clubs-covid-shutdown-suit-20210318-rppjfhtvzrhfxhongelumu6e3q-story.html And wouldn't a strip club named Gallagher's be a beefcake place?

Highly overrated: Copenhagen's Little Mermaid statue. Underrated: Pinball Hall of Fame, Las Vegas

I wouldn't.

If you look for love from a sex worker, then yes, beware. Otherwise I think saying that seeking an Asian implies you will find a gold digger is not acceptable. But you have your experience and I have mine. In 20 trips to Thailand I have never heard of farangs being called "walking ATMs.)

And, if you have a birthday that weekend, you should reserve now. A friend chose the Restaurant 849 for his birthday. When he said he made a reservation for 849, I thought that must be the time he was born! I hadn't heard of 849 the restaurant. To think, indoor dining already!

Provincetown for the ocean!

Will there be a second cumming?

Today I received an email from Helix Studios, offering me a 40% discount if I use the passcode GETLUCKY. How did they know?

Today is going to be a perfect day in the desert- sunny and a high around 80 degrees. Our spring season is at hand. You will find no better time to be in the desert!

It's good news that someone has been appointed to represent Daddy, but bad news that he still needs it.

A new book shows that men's sperm counts are declining. By 2045, there may be no sperm! Penises are shrinking too! (Had you noticed?) :... hormone-disrupting chemicals ...are decimating fertility at an alarming rate around the globe." Among the "staggering" findings, author Shanna Swan says: “The current state of reproductive affairs can’t continue much longer without threatening human survival,” ... adding: “It’s a global existential crisis.” That’s not hyperbole. That’s just science. (Guardian) As if this wasn’t terrifying enough, Swan’s research finds that these chemicals aren’t just dramatically reducing semen quality, they are also shrinking penis size and volume of the testes. This is nothing short of a full-scale emergency for humanity. (Guardian) The Guardian review is here: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2021/mar/18/toxic-chemicals-health-humanity-erin-brokovich The book is Countdown.

Yes, sad. A guy's mistakes and errors define him over his contributions in his field.

This novel about a young, queer playwright who takes a big tumble in life was quite interesting. The theater aspect is top notch, but there are other themes involving a gay couple, a movie in the making, and the protagonist's relationship with a variety of people that kept me reading. Overall, one accomplishment of the novel was to understand better why the use of the word "queer" is an apt description of sexual otherness. Young people not wanting labels as gay or lesbian are more comfortable being described as queer. This appropriation of the word goes a long way to mitigate its use as an insult. I never thought I would come to accept that!

A likable fact about George W. Bush:

@Unicorn is a great contributor to this site in multiple ways. I apologize to him for making him feel criticized.

The Guardian today features scenes from movies that they consider great gay moments: https://www.theguardian.com/film/2021/mar/17/greatest-gay-moments-cinema-gus-van-sant-terence-davies-pratibha-parmar-john-cameron-mitchell

That is certainly something worth pursuing.

Luscious! A real prize!
