@WmClarke, Mike is wonderful!

From one Mike to two others, the happiest of birthdays for @MikeCruiseNYC and @Mikegaite. Hope each of you has a great day. Pamper yourselves a little!

Exercise I can relate to!

I would be delighted if he had that smile while using that endowment on me! Gosh, did I say that?

Widely reported on here and widely praised. I have seen nothing negative about Andrew. Nor do I think I ever will.

Whereas, if it's a cute boy ... Actually, probably the same answer, but you can always dream!

A naive question on my part, and I have done a perfunctory search online. Is HSV1 infectious all the time or only when there are lesions? If the latter, then the obligation for disclosure is rather more specific.

Oh, my!

It is indeed. And Nate's presence only enhances its value.

Andy, notwithstanding your experience (which I don't doubt for a moment), I suspect there are clients here who have been blown away by the sort of men you question. I've hired a couple of muscle guys who were sublime. Of course, my experience doesn't negate yours.

@BigRic, your characterisation of your interventions here is the same one as I had drawn from what you say. I struggle to see some of the adverse implications that have been drawn.

The British use of 'fag' for a cigarette is unrelated to its American use for a homosexual man. (In fact, the British usage is older than the American one.) So calling a cigarette a fag doesn't carry any allusion to homosexuality, it is in no way homophobic. On the broader question of the use of the word faggot, I see nothing wrong with the gay community appropriating it. I can understand some gay men being uncomfortable with its use because of its history as a term of abuse, but I'm not one of them.

Hi Logan, welcome to the forum. I hope you find it useful, many do. If you have an ad, you may find it useful to include a link in your signature here. Don't take things here too seriously!

Lol, Oliver, I doubt it too. Is there a 'He's just too big, I would die' size that might make someone play down their size?

Turns out that the gentleman concerned opposes Qantas' strong public support for marriage equality, and wanted to demonstrate to its CEO (Alan Joyce) that there are 'consequences' from the 'mainstream community' for this support. Now that the motive has become clear, Joyce will be pressing charges.

In the great Franco-Belgian tradition of entartement the CEO of Qantas had a lemon meringue pie shoved in his face at a business breakfast in Perth a couple of days ago. In this case the reason for it remains unclear, but this may be an appropriate response to some of his US counterparts, for example United Airlines CEO 'dragging a screaming customer off a flight is a good idea' Muñoz. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-05-09/qantas-chief-alan-joyce-cops-cream-pie-in-face-in-perth/8510156

That to me is a 'could happen to anyone' moment. Careless on the part of United, shouldn't have happened, but it did, and to my mind once the mistake had been realised the airline did the right thing. As to not notifying her, illustration if ever it were needed that you should check the departure board at the airport, especially if you checked in on line hours earlier. Announcements? In my recent recollection, foreign airlines in Australia and the US make announcements in English and their own language (Cathay in Cantonese not Mandarin - screw you Beijing) but local ones do so only in English. Most likely untrue, but funny, I recall a story of an Air New Zealand flight to Los Angeles being announced as having 'continued service to Auckland'. One passenger allegedly heard this as 'to Oakland' and stayed on board. Then, two hours into the flight ....

Also sounds like it is an automated response and if so, ill-advised but not desperate.

This used to be a nice area, before they let the trumpets in. https://twitter.com/virtuallydead/status/850853459171704833

I very much doubt it, such a straight laced hetero town!
