Recently I ordered new water filters for my refrigerator. The manufacturer's price is a rip off, so I went to another site with generics made to fit the brand. They work just fine. But what startled me on checking out was the tip box. I was being asked to leave a tip for the employees of the company! That's a first for me. I noted that those workers are all in China, but I didn't give a tip. What's next in the world of tipping?

New York City has it all! It's beautiful and has enormous amounts of attractions. Plus there are some gay people there!

I feel so bad that the Literature Forum is closed. What happened?

The doctor may or may not have been cruising in the park, but the killer was later seen driving the doctor's car. He was arrested and hopefully not released on bail. He has a thing for knives. https://nypost.com/2022/12/26/nyc-man-charged-in-slashing-spree-including-doctor-found-in-harlem-park/

Anyone named Cooper must be good! 🙂

An escort freaks out due to cum on his chest? Maybe he should only service mannequins!

We chose Yang Chow and it was a good choice. The streets were closed for the parade, which made parking a problem, but once we were at the table all was well and the food was good...as was the service. Thanks for the suggestions.

The city of Palm Springs has now legalized sex clubs! Do you think one could open in time for the Weekend? From desertsun.com: The new rules legalize one kind of business that was previously banned: "adult sex venues," establishments where people are allowed to engage in sex in either public spaces or in private spaces that are rented for less than 24 hours. But their legalization came with a caveat: that operators of such businesses will need to proactively work with public health departments to manage potential issues with sexually-transmitted diseases and drug use at their facilities. https://www.desertsun.com/story/news/local/palm-springs/2023/01/27/palm-springs-sex-clubs-city-council-nudity-law-adult-oriented-zoning/69846245007/

Thanks, @dctraveler. I did a search, but evidently not the right one.

I finally received my Ozempic today. All of the nondiabetics getting it screwed up the supply.

Are there more neighbors' sons than there are neighbors?

Possibly helpful hints for those visiting Palm Springs: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/mistakes-tourists-palm-springs_l_63656290e4b020eb3d6caad4

I was recently prescribed Ozempic, but have been waiting ever since as the non-diabetics all want it. Glipizide has worked wonders with me. I get regular heart checks and have seen no changes since I started it.

The Chinatown New Year's Parade is Saturday and I am wondering if there are any good Chinese restaurants there. Perhaps they are all in Monterey Park.

Knock on wood...I have been to Brazil 6 times without incident. But poverty is worse after the pandemic so maybe more crime.

Those details are not allowed on this site. A quote from Daddy: "Reminder, it is against the rules to post reviews in the message-forum. Discussion of "Extras" is not appropriate."

If this is your massage, I'll have to get to London! I will leave the dog at home!

Somewhere in another thread, @KrisParr recommended using a lady's shaver. I can't recall exactly, but the risk of cutting was lower.

Sunday the 22d is Chinese New Year, this year the Year of the Rabbit. You may have seen the hordes of Chinese people taking trains to the provinces to meet up with family. Family is a big part of a good new year. I have celebrated Chinese New Year for decades as the hubby is Chinese. We try to do a family dinner, but always have a big spread on the day before as it is New Year's Eve. This year the LA Chinatown will be holding a parade and we hope to be there on October 28th in the afternoon. New York parade is January 29th as is Chicago's. Seattle and Vancouver will also have parades.

Cash is king.

The area is already deluged by snowbirds! Heavy traffic, long lines at stores- if you can find a parking spot. Plus, many tourists are bad drivers.

I have never understood the desire to have your cock sucked by someone you can't see.

Earlier this year, the city of Vancouver made a final submission seeking federal exemption to decriminalize simple drug possession. The submission proposed initial possession thresholds of as much as two grams of opioids including heroin and fentanyl, three grams of cocaine, one gram of crack cocaine and 1.5 grams of amphetamines – the drugs most commonly involved in fatal overdoses. The reasoning behind these thresholds is that these amounts are, on average, an amount that can satiate a user for three or more days, which would prevent users from needing to acquire drugs on a daily basis. This means that, if enacted into law, possession of these amounts of drugs would no longer carry criminal charges. The federal government has given Vancouver an exemption from national laws for three years. All of this follows the thought that drug use is a health issue, not a criminal one. The cartels must be thrilled! Or are they?

"In addition to Sands, authorities are searching separately for Hawthorne resident Bob Gregory, a hiker who was reported missing by family on Monday afternoon, according to KABC-TV The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s San Dimas station told the station that the search for Gregory is being conducted in the Crystal Lake area of the San Gabriel Mountains." latimes.com
