I was once immensely attracted to a trainer at a Queens gym. He was Asian and a hunk. We hit it off and he started training me...for free! But I never tried to violate the implied limit. He never once made a suggestion that there was more on the table.

$185 is the cheapest orchestra seat I can find. The show sounds great, but as you mention, seats have become quite expensive.

Why are so many gay men going nuts over Jesse's cock? Haven't we all seen enough big ones that we can contain ourselves when yet another one comes out of the pants? I know I have. I enjoyed the early versions of Take Me Out and enjoyed the nudity. But I've been there, done that.

I wouldn't know how to do that!

Biden should have protected your boat. And if he didn't, why didn't he give you a new one?

It is a wireless printer.

I can't print anything from my computer to the printer. I always have been able to, but now it says that my printer is offline. When I got that message in the past, I would restart the printer and it would work No more! Any advice?

When he (quickly) responded on What's App, it was with a NYC number. Bottom line, in November he will be back in Europe.

Can anyone tell me his rates? DM is okay!

Focus on the positive. You are choosing someone, not rejecting the others. They just weren't chosen this time.

Any updates? I thought he was located in New York, but his profile says he is visiting New York from Oct. 21-28. Also, how do you contact him on What'sApp?

The "freedom" not to mask in the face of a public health emergency is contradictory. If masking saves lives, the "freedom" does not exist. Notice I said "if."

Interesting article in the NY Times: Nearly all Americans hospitalized for monkeypox infection had weakened immune systems, most often because of H.I.V. infection, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported on Wednesday. Of 57 hospitalized patients described in the report, 82 percent had H.I.V. More than two-thirds of the patients were Black and nearly one-quarter were homeless, reflecting racial and economic inequities seen in the outbreak overall. The finding suggests that although most cases of monkeypox are mild, doctors should test patients with suspected cases for H.I.V. as well, and be prepared to offer prompt treatment for both infections. “Monkeypox and H.I.V. have collided with tragic effects,” Dr. Jonathan Mermin, the C.D.C.’s lead scientist on monkeypox, said in a statement. Most of the patients in the study were given tecovirimat, or Tpoxx, but treatment for some patients was delayed by as long as four weeks after they first sought care. As of Tuesday, more than 28,000 cases of monkeypox had been reported in the United States, and nearly 76,000 cases worldwide. A vast majority are still among men who have sex with men, according to the C.D.C. The number of new monkeypox infections has declined steadily since September. But the number of high-risk people opting for vaccination has also dropped. Only 7 percent of the vaccine doses administered so far have gone to recipients who are Black. People living with H.I.V. or with other conditions that weaken the immune system fared poorly in previous outbreaks of monkeypox in African countries. In the new report, C.D.C. scientists analyzed case reports from 57 patients older than 18 who were hospitalized for monkeypox between Aug. 10 and Oct. 10. Roughly 95 percent of the patients were male. All of them had skin rashes, and most also had severe lesions in the mouth, urethra, rectum or vagina. About one in five experienced symptoms in their lungs and eyes, and in four patients the brain and spinal cord were affected. Four of the 47 patients with H.I.V. were taking drugs to suppress the virus before they were diagnosed with monkeypox. About one in three had a CD4 count — a proxy for the immune system’s strength — of less than 50, indicating severe immunosuppression. Two of the patients, one of whom had H.I.V., were being treated for cancer; three were solid organ transplant recipients; and three were pregnant. All of these conditions are linked to a weakened immune system. One third of the patients were admitted to intensive care units. Of the 12 recorded deaths, five were a result of complications from monkeypox infection, six are under investigation and one was determined to be unrelated. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/10/26/health/monkeypox-hiv.html

Sad news indeed. My condolences to all concerned, but especially to @Oliver

@Unicorn You're welcome.

And then there are the old farts like us who don't even go to the Pride events despite living here in November. I think Pride works best for young folks who have newly accepted their identity and want to celebrate it.

At this point, what difference would it make?

I told you guys that Jeremy Pena is hot, and he only got hotter!

The code is "knock, knock." The other party says "who's there." The correct line to follow is glory. The other party responds "Glory who?" You say "It's not glory who, it's glory hole!"

The news reports that prolific gay actor and star of Will & Grace was found dead today. He was killed in a car crash. https://nypost.com/2022/10/24/leslie-jordan-dead-at-67-beloved-actor-dies-in-car-crash/

Thanks for the report. I am glad you liked it. As for me, Jim Parsons just turns me off. I don't think I would watch this show.

Is this really new? Guys have been doing this in the Politics Forum for a long time!
