  1. I never understood the show's appeal. Seinfeld was creative and brought a younger hip demographic to network TV. What did Friends do that was unique? How it became a ratings leader and internationally popular still baffles me.
  2. Recently watched based on comments here from JEC & Rod Hagen. Spoiler alert...ending broke my heart. Came out of nowhere. Well done movie.
  3. Thank you Joe Mendoza for the pics. I unsuccessfully tried posting one with my initial post. Either he looks better today than ever or my perspective has changed as I get older.
  4. Is it me or did Brad Pitt look sexier in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood than in his previous roles?
  5. It is one more site whose time has come and gone. Its cruising listings continue to get updated. Personal ads gave way to Manhunt which was eclipsed by Grindr & Scruff. Squirt's heyday was the Manhunt era.
  6. Did anyone see the clip of Lil Nas X on Saturday Night Live? There has been talk about his apparent wardrobe malfunction but nothing about the content. All male back up dancers and suggestive moves on a mainstream broadcast. I don't think this could have happened only a few years ago. Bob Dylan was right, "The times they are a changin."
  7. I've donated and did so happily. With Go Fund Me there doesn't appear to be way to give your forum name. When sending to Daddy in the past he knew it was me and it of course brought one to the cabana. Just a thought.
  8. BTW, my Rhode Island jab was strictly in jest. My significant other is from RI. Naturally, the rivalry is a source of mutual kidding.
  9. During the years I lived in D.C. I repeatedly heard, "I like New England (or Boston) but the people are not friendly." I was somewhat defensive until I traveled throughout more of the U.S. and realized that folks in other places are indeed friendlier. I do think it's based more on "Yankee reserve" than friendliness. For example, in a Boston restaurant you will never overhear the conversation of nearby party. You will in New Orleans. On the other hand, when you sit down at your table in the French Quarter the adjoining parties will say, "Hello" or, "How are you?" That will never happen in New England even if you make eye contact. I'm not defending the criteria or finding of the survey but have enjoyed the responses the thread generated.
  10. The Snobbiest States – Zippiahttps://www.zippia.com › advice › the-snobbiest-states As a New Englander and as a Bostonian I must take issue with the results of the survey. I don't think Rhode Island is snobby. Nor do they have justification to be so!
  11. I agree. Not amazing but funny & interesting enough to justify watching.
  12. Couldn't wait for a response. Took the plunge. AMAZING!! I think I last had similar experience in my twenties. Maybe
  13. I'm curious too. Please let us know if you do. Will be in Ft. Lauderdale soon. Thanks
  14. Bump. Any updates in the last 2 years?
  15. The fact that so many of us cared about and followed his condition these last few weeks is a testament to the community he built via this site and Daddy's. My condolences to all, especially those of you who were more closely acquainted with him. May I add my name to those who appreciate Cooper's efforts on Guy's behalf and for updating the rest of us on his condition?
  16. Pardon my kvetching...again. I mentioned this before on a thread about newspaper subscriptions. I love the NY Times and pay through the nose for 7 day delivery. The problem is the delivery is unreliable. The papers have contracted out delivery and they pay poorly. My last delivery guy (who we tipped generously and faithfully) told us there were multiple unfilled routes because the pay was so low. It's crazy how much advertising revenue has migrated to Facebook, Google, etc. But if the industry can't get the paper to our homes they won't survive.
  17. I prefer to take my glasses off but I don't have a very strong prescription so I can still see a bit. For parties, bathhouses etc. I wear contact lenses even though I don't care for them. I prefer partners to remove glasses with one exception...Sherman Maus
  18. Despite the concern I expressed and others shared about name and profile changes I went ahead. My confidence grew based on our text exchanges. So happy I took one for the team. No need to nominate me for a humanitarian award because the session was ample reward. He's sexy, smart, good looking and friendly.
  19. A year ago we assumed that the the sudden shutdown was "temporary" and we hoped the warm weather would eradicate the last vestiges of the coronavirus. We earnestly wondered about and discussed foreign travel. Now, as vaccinations roll out, we can justifiably hope that it is a possibility. I'm interested in what folks here think might happen or have heard from at least semi-reliable sources. A friend in the UK tells me that UK and EU citizens with proof of vaccine can travel to Greece this summer. He says it's reasonable to expect that they will soon add US. There is no such mention on the US Embassy website at present. Is it folly to make even preliminary plans? The though of it takes the sting out of New England weather.
  20. Insatiable | Netflix Official Sitehttps://www.netflix.com › title Kinda crazy, wicked bitchy humor, eye candy, soap opera-ish and campy. Just discovered it. I keep looking to see if john Waters is a consultant.

    BrianFord Does anyone have any information or experience? Pushes all the right buttons.
  22. Changed circumstances makes parallel comparisons difficult. My sense from talking to older gay friends (not a lot older, btw!) is that when gays left their hometowns and ended up in certain cities like New York and San Francisco the combination of new venues and shed inhibitions led to wild times. The AIDS epidemic in the 80's & 90's followed by greater acceptance has made it easier for many of us to choose where to live based more on career opportunities than lifestyle acceptance. Then throw social media into the mix.
