14. A gentleman pays. How should it be determined who pays?

What your mother taught you is better than what I had; it combines both.

The gardens were used in the series "Versailles".

I like this place https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaux-le-Vicomte

I think the Barberini Faun is the original that many copy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barberini_Faun

I fondly remember Kip Noll from years ago in porn. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kip_Noll

Who walks closest to the curb? Btw that's a pet peeve of mine when I see an opposite sex couple where the man doesn't walk on the outside. Years back I knew this couple and he usually didn't but I kept reminding / scolding them. So one day when I was driving I saw them out walking and when they saw me he switched positions. ;-))) Regarding saying please I had always thought if the request was put in the conditional then please was not necessary. "Please hand me the pencil?" but "Would you hand me the pencil?" it wasn't needed.

But many do not apply to male male encounters.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middlesex_(novel) <<Narrator and protagonist Cal Stephanides (initially called "Callie") is an intersex man of Greek descent with 5-alpha-reductase deficiency, which causes him to have certain feminine traits. The first half of the novel is about Cal's family and depicts his grandparents' migration from Bursa, a city in Asia Minor, to the United States in 1922. It follows their assimilation into U.S. society in Detroit, Michigan, then a booming industrial city. The latter half of the novel, set in the late 20th century, focuses on Cal's experiences in his hometown of Detroit and his escape to San Francisco, where he comes to terms with his modified gender identity.>> Anyone read this book?

Pass! ;-))))

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cetaphil I read that this is used for fake cum. I wonder what it tastes like?

That must have been nice. Jack really is among the best!

Thanks all!

This is a movie I greatly enjoy. Good to watch on New Year's Eve https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Horn_Blows_at_Midnight

Maybe Jack said that because he knew how Lucy felt about his wife?

Tonight's "MacGyver" involved Chernobyl. Can someone explain why Chernobyl is dangerous while Hiroshima and Nagasaki are safe?

I have great neighbors in the building (fourplex). My landlord is understanding and a great help. I order groceries online but the store does not deliver so he brings them to me. Also the UPS store is in the same shopping center so he picks up my mail.

There is a group mail box at the curb. For many years there was a note inside saying not to put any mail in my compartment. But several years ago I had that pulled because I needed proof of my actual residence. I used to check it once in awhile but because of my knee problem I have not checked it in several months. The mail in it was mostly advertisements. When something had no apartment number on the mailman would put it in my box regardless of the name on it. I have had the rent box at the UPS store for 20+ years. I have lived in this apartment for 26 years.

I have had my car tires slashed, the air let out, the radio atenna taken, my car passenger side window broken, my car licence plate stolen to get the tag, & more ... . My upstairs neighbor had his car stolen from the apartment parking lot.
