I don't make any interpretations other than whether I'm interested at all, and then whether availability matches my schedule. I've seen lists of travel destinations, where its clear someone is making a trek. I'm not going to judge a guy negatively for 3 days in LA 1 day in Santa Barbara 1 day in Monterey 2 days in San Jose 3 days in San Francisco. That said... listing a home base and travel plans seems largely replaced by simply updating home base upon arrival in city. The intent may be to attract guys who won't hire visitors; the flipside is that it eliminates planners as clients. There's probably some justification as I'd suspect the "ready-now, see you today/tonight" clients probably cancel less frequently than "ok for 2 weeks from now" planners.

I don't know anyone by secret or former names But https://rentmen.eu/JesseJaymes clearly shows the guy who told me hes only doing videos now in LA ... going to Boston then onto London in Oct Maybe it's a different jessejaymes If there's a rentmen.eu/MyRealNameIsRory... I haven't seen his ad.

Its whoever has the name jessejaymes on rentmen.eu Now in LA... although schedule says Seattle

Well, then for some reason he lied to me. Maybe trying to be polite... although, with text, not sure what basis he would have had to decide.... I hadnt yet asked any questions, etc. Because he definitely texted me yesterday... RM profile said Las Vegas, where Im visiting... that hes only doing videos I have no reason to "dis" him... maybe it was a mixup... I'd still be interested if he was in my city.

....from las vegas... "On those windy vegas nights.... ...you can cuddle up to your slot machines.. ...... they're a little lumpy, but they ring...." About sums up my LV experience this visit. so long dearie...

Wow... anger managementneeds is right! And... I should take responsibility for not recognizing him from an interaction 6 mos ago. Different pic. Getting the name Damo on Scruff app... I checked here... then declined. He unleashed a string of hostile comments, threats, name calling. I blocked him. 10 minutes later... I get a string of four Grindr messages from a guy using the name "traveling " Go suck a dick old fuck. Stop Wasting people time online get a life. Asshole Now I’m Gonna report your ass I have your pics. And your phone number For harassing people WOW! That is a Nutjob with anger issues. Made an effort to compare my Scruff profile and find me on Grindr just to continue venting his spleen. And.. before some tells me not to worry... he doesn't have my phone number... and how could someone soliciting report anyone? Bullet dodged.

I can report that JesseJaymes messaged me hes now selling videos, and not meeting clients

I can report, from the Las Vegas strip, that Wolecok Silicone Collapsible Coffee Filter, Camping Coffee Dripper Cone, Pour over Coffee Brewer Coffee https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01E5G1L66/ref=cm_sw_r_em_taa_Y.5FDb146918F , and Norpro 559 Electric Immersion Heater Warmer 300W For Water Tea Coffee Soup https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M0TB9PI/ref=cm_sw_r_em_taa_db6FDbA208YD6 Have done the trick. Now... as for tricks.....

Know Delro from online-not in person. Could write volumes on Dr. Mike experiences. Dr. Mike had the knack of tuning into what would float his client's boat. I found someone 18 months ago, using phony photos, who was hotter than his pics. Super polite, responsive, and a body that turned heads wherever we went. Alas, he's disappeared from the scene. I share, because... they're out there. Not easy to find... but they can be found.

Tell them to stick around... I'll be there in a few days

A 100% full ship gay cruise is not for me. But I am seeking either small gay cruises, or gay groups on a cruise, or even gay-friendly singles groups that travel. Particularly interested in some of the river cruises in in Europe. I did a gay group on a mainstream cruise 20 years ago. Single, solo-travel in a group of about 50, 25% single/solo. It was a mixed experience. Being gay on the cruise ship never felt awkward or uncomfortable.... very welcomed and friendly treatment by staff, crew, and other passengers. Being solo was not an issue onboard. There was an organized cocktail hour every evening, and 20 years ago, dinners were still primarily main dining room events. Every night was fun; while people scattered in small groups after dinner, somehow everyone appeared at the dance club every night at midnight. Overall, I had a fantastic time onboard. However, there were daytime excursions where I found myself feeling alone and threw myself some brief pity-parties. I'm ready to try again, and looking at options.

There used to be Chumleys and other bear cruises. Have you tried a web search for gay bear cruise?

I think the potential for Grindr fraud must have been a relatively recent discovery on the dark web, or whatever online underworld network exists for scamners. While its not new phenomenom, in the past 3-4 months, its really blown up. Now, 90% of contacts I get on grindr are scams. They use photos that are either average, or fitness models. Two most prevalent: 1) they're preparing for or deployed in active military service. 2) they start messaging, send 1-2 messages that seem to indicate confusion or crossed signals. Then say their app is screwed up... and provide a phone # to call. I turn Grindr on perhaps one or two weekends per month. And, its been an effective source when traveling to Vegas; some rentguys there seem to rely on it heavily. I'll be in LV soon... wonder if I'll see a change. Here at home... its becoming a total waste of time due to scammers.

Ive often wondered about this topic. Not out of self interest, but from a marketing perspective. Herbs, creams, pills, devices... to increase dick size... or boob-size... strike me as the perfect example of caveat emptor. Someone must buy them... otherwise the manufacturers and advertisers wouldn't keep making them . Although I haven't seen the ads recently, not long ago there were several tv ads, with b-list celebs or retired athletes touting the effects of wonder drugs. Network TV, where there is, presumably, a little more vetting for truth-in-advertising. The spokespeople never quite said it, but hinted alot and used language so the viewer inferred an increase in penis size. I wondered what those pills really did. Never suspected they worked. Never wanted to purchase. But was very curious as to the effects of the pills; there must have been some nugget of truth in the promotional language to avoid lawsuits. Who is buying these things? Are there communities where people believe every piece of junk mail proclaiming they've already won a prize, believe phone calls that the IRS is suing them, emails from exiled royalty ready to share riches, and ads for a fantastic breakthrough supplement that will have you waking up tomorrow looking 20 years younger? And how can I find these people and link them to my ebay store?

Ill be in town too... hoping to see lots of http://www.nickelontheyo.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Yo-Eleven-Dice.png

When the vacuum cleaner bag bursts?

Tsk.... I'm trying to eat healthier and thought this thread was about something else

I'll be in LV in Sept. Based on schedule, Sun night my only option. Only thing I can tell from website is that Sundays appear to be Karaoke night. Wish I could tell if that means just Karaoke, or if gogos every night.... or what goes on there......

Any updates on Iconic? Their website seems rather sparsely developed... still many placeholders

Yesterday. First time... following a link from here

Exactly! I've woofed. Grrrr'd. Chosen my denim, even wore flannel plaid. Had the black workboots and tan Timberlands. Never put my wallet on a chain or donned a black leather vest... but did the rest of the bear-drag.

Evidence that adult men will assign the silliest of labels in pursuit of "belonging"

Blech! I can't relate to any flavored coffee drinks. I am my most curmudgeonly in line at coffee shops... actually muttering like some old codger either facing senility or on the spectrum. "I just want a fuckin'cup of coffee. Is there a line for adults? No mocha frappy-whappies! No chai half-caf with moo! JUST COFFEE! " Someday, I'll be on some youngster's social media feed "get a load of this old nutjob, mumbling to himself in the coffee line!"

So, he has an outstanding reputation. One of this Board's favorites. Super polite and accomodating in planning. Except, he's repeatedly canceled, or changed plans, throughout all attempts to schedule. He may not be aware of the repetitive cancels. They've been months apart, across several years. So, its not like some guy jerking me around. And I genuinely believe his reasons. He's undoubtedly busy. This time, I actually expected the cancellation. And I was correct. It was polite, and included a request to reschedule, one hour before appointed time. I'm not going to trash the guy. He's been on my list for years. I will be disappointed to abandon the experience. But I'm beginning to think the fates have ordained it will not happen. And so, without hostility, but perhaps fatalistic protection of my expectations, I'm thinking I should just reply "ya know what? I dont think it's meant to be. Best of luck."

Yes, he was on RM. I haven't looked recently. I can confirm hes a nice, friendly guy... but cant say anything about services. He contacted me... long story involving craigslist, his web search, and a mixup between SF Bay and Tampa Bay. I always wanted to meet after that, but opportunity never arose.
