Good comments. I also realize I may be trying to turn back the clock. The CK jeans and blow dryers aren't coming back anytime soon.

Sadly, disappearing. Elysium near Sebastian Beach became a straight hotel and then the Windamar. When I walk by and see all those branches pruned away I can't help but think of what they concealed, day and night.

Previous forums have discussed Italian Americans, even invoking the Guido label. It is a look I fancy. They don't have to be Jersey Shore muscular. In the 1980's and 90's guys like the young John Travolta and Tony Danza looked great in tight jeans. Remember the NYC cop who posed in Playgirl? Manhattanites may have derided them as BBQ's (Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens) but the look wasn't limited to NYC. Are there any present escorts who have that look and vibe? Age no issue if they've aged well.

Thank you Epigonos for your report. Living on the east coast I have only been to Palm Springs a few times. However, I realize that the visits have been spread over many years. I first stayed at InnExile around 1990. I've since heard that it went straight and then gay again. Does anyone know its present status? I also stayed at and enjoyed InnDulge under previous ownership. Last few visits have been to CCBC. Yes it's out of the way but I had a lot of fun. Lastly, the Palm Springs gathering may be just the push I need to visit again. Gay bars are vanishing everywhere as have my favorite gay resorts in Fort Lauderdale. I think it best to enjoy them before they're extinct.

I think my experience was more similar to HerenDC than Lurker123..

Thanks. I didn't find anything under that name either. Do you recall or know anything about him?

The original post refers to it as Sex in the City recycled. It might have been escaped that trap if the setting had moved away from New York's high end lifestyle. Instead of the Million Dollar Listing setting it could have focused on another profession. Maybe even something about coping with NY's high costs, even for professionals. I'll stick with it and hope for some enhanced creativity ness season.

And many do not have links in their signatures.

I spent a few days with someone who was well regarded on this site but has apparently retired. It was soon after I began Prep. One morning as I was about to get out of bed he grabbed me and said, "Are you going to clean out and brush your teeth?" I was indeed, as I had done so the previous mornings which led to much fun! He started to kiss me. Then he grabbed the lube. He could tell I wanted to check, "down there" but told me to relax. It did take me bit to relax because I'm so anal, pardon the pun. Once he came he said he was staying inside until he came again. And he did. I remain amazed at what a barrier breaking session that was. Needless to say, while I think good hygiene is also good manners, Im not going to let worry ruin the moment.

Thank you. After a hiatus from the site I was looking at the member profile and, as Jamie21 notes, not at the signature.

I seem to recall, perhaps before the site's overhaul, that the profile of forum members who are providers included their provider name and possibly a link to their ad. Am I missing it? Has it been deleted as a feature?

The massage was excellent and he is beautiful. I wish it were on a table but the pros outweigh the cons.

I like the idea. DC/MAL is always at risk of flight cancelations if we get a storm. Florida reduces that risk. I might suggest Fort Lauderdale over Palm Beach as it offers more venues: bars; baths; clothing optional resorts and gay restaurants that can accommodate large parties.

No. Nor is their nose hair trimmer. A case of creative marketing over product quality. Anything by the traditional brands (Norelco, Braun, Panasonic) is better.

He has no phone # listed. I emailed and he said we'd have to have a video chat first but no details as to when, how, etc. Too many fish in the sea to go through all that.

Yes. Not expecting perfection but enjoyed Episode 1. Look forward to the rest.

Queer as Folk, Season 2: Emmett Hunneycut meets George Schickle.

Yes. And it was beyond positive. Highly recommend.

I think that's terrific and the suggested time makes more sense with Covid lurking. I'm happy to suggest some ideas/venues as the date draws closer. We're presently getting walloped by snow in Boston. Just thinking about Florida feels good.

Having to cancel is admittedly a bummer but also prudent. Let's disregard Xxxx's comments for the moment. I am hardly alone in appreciating the efforts of ArVaGuy and others to arrange the brunch and Nate fora night out on the town. With all due to respect to Epinogos and his Denver suggestion might I suggest another option? What about Fort Lauderdale in April or May? There is a planned Palm Springs event in April so we should choose a different weekend. But getting to Palm Springs isn't easy from the East Coast. (Sorry Nate!) Midwest and East Coast members can get lots of affordable flights to Fort Lauderdale. There are also lots of venues to visit. If this idea has any appeal we could start a fresh thread.

Anyone with recent experience?

Used to go by another name but I can't recall. The pictures are the same. They are appealing. He's in Boston now.

I sense that there are more drag performances around since RuPaul's Drag Race hit the airwaves. Maybe we need a show about torch song singers to revitalize the genre.

A recent post about Things I Miss got me off on a tangent about piano bars. Are there any left? I remember when Boston's Napoleon Club was a 1st floor piano bar on weeknights. The upstairs dance bar only opened Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. It was a comfortable environment for a young guy figuring out his sexual identity and a a gay version of Cheers for the regulars. Martunies in San Francisco is straight but gay friendly. The Front Porch in Ogunquit Maine has morphed into a primarily straight bar but features gay performers who work plenty of gay references into their acts.
