I like looking at infrastructure to tell when scenes are filmed at locations other than what is portrayed. It is common for scenes of Las Vegas to show painted lane markings on the road, when Las Vegas uses primarily "buttons" known as raised pavement markers, not paint. Or scenes take place in New York City but the traffic signals have a black background plate instead of yellow, because New York uses yellow but Los Angeles uses black. Or the most basic giveaway of Los Angeles infrastructure.... Fire hydrants that are allegedly not connected to tanks/reservoir that supply water pressure to the homes in the community, as some have amusingly insisted upthread had no impacts on the availability of water in hydrants! Only in LaLa land do the fire hydrants magically have their own water source not reliant on the water tanks and reservoirs supplying pressure for the rest of the community!!! 😆 For those interested in knowing how things operate in the real world: Las Vegas requires new developments to be connected to the municipal water pipes in two locations, with the pipes in a loop. This way when a pipe breaks, the water can still flow the other direction in the loop to feed the development. New developments' water pipes and reservoirs must be sized so that if a fire breaks out anywhere, there must be adequate pressure to operate 2 adjacent fire hydrants simultaneously with 1 assumed break in the pipe network between the 2 fire hydrants and assumed to be happening during peak water using periods when the surrounding community is also drawing down the water supply. Would that have been enough to combat a wildfire that needed dozens or hundreds of fire hydrants running simultaneously? Probably not. Perhaps additional criteria should be used when development is rebuilt in these burned areas, such as a water infrastructure design robust enough to handle multiple pipe breaks and dozens of fire hydrants operating simultaneously. It'll cost hundreds of millions of dollars more, but pay now or pay later.

I had a great massage from Ron in Wilton Manors. Lots of top attention payed to my backside and inner pressure points. https://www.masseurfinder.com/massage-therapists/35671/

I just saw Ron for the first time... And what an amazing Top Massuer. Deep all the way. I will see him every trip to Ft Lauderdale

I just saw Ron, and I can't describe him better than @FLJock did

I had a great session with Ron recently. Super nice guy, great sensual massage.

I would never do business with family. However, I did "experiment" with my cousins when I was young

Good point. When I used to work in Kern County, California, at the turn of the century, owners had to clear away brush and dead leaves for at least 200 feet surrounding structures. Then, codes changed and clearing brush and dead leaves became prohibited to preserve the quality of the watershed.

The former

Yes! And it feels good after a long time up and down mountains. When I used to go camping and hiking once a month, my routine when I returned always included a soak in a warm bath🛁 followed by a massage with a massuer who worked the buttocks.

I didn't know we invented a vaccine for insects. Thank you for sharing!

There's a discussion on that here:

Agree 💯! And those 18th and 19th century buildings were constructed before building codes! The capitalist who fronts the money for construction just needs to be willing to pay for robust construction methods upfront, despite the potential to receive less financial payback in his lifetime. Good quality constructed housing is expensive for a reason, and most often out of reach of the middle class just like those townhomes on DuPont Cir. It will be interesting to see if these devastated Los Angeles neighborhoods will opt to rebuild with more expensive robust quality instead of a desire to rebuild as quickly and as cheaply as possible in order to address immediate housing needs

Or, accept that low rise buildings aren't intended to last for centuries. If not by fire or food, then termites or rust will take down the building

I don't mention it when I'm booking. But I might mention it at the end of the first successful meeting.

I would hire him. I have hired men I previously knew outside this profession. I have hired men I previously slept with outside this profession.

Incorrect. If what you suggest were true, rather than simply an unsupportable rightwing philosophy, we wouldn’t have things like building codes. We do. Sadly, it doesn't look like those building codes did any good to prevent these thousands of homes from wildfire. 😢

Enjoy your trip!! Please report back on the whole experience. And, please report back on the HOLE experience 😉 😈

I feel the same way about the word "queer", originating from "strange" or "not right" and clearly offensive. Obviously this provider has taken ownership of the word and is proud of his heritage, similar to how some queers have taken ownership of the word and now proudly use it despite it still being highly offensive to many. Exclamation point!

Yes, which is in tight supply because of the fires tragedy and subject to price gouging restrictions that aren't working 😢

On the contrary. That Ireland man is taking up housing that could be used by the victims of the tragic fires. The Irish, in this case, are part of the problem driving up rents. "... WE DON'T WANT THE IRISH!!!" 🍀

It's "The Aggie Song" from "The Best Little Whitehouse in Texas"! When I was in the 8th grade, I wore my VHS copy of this film out by rewatching this scene frame by frame over and over. There were 4 frames of penis, albeit in a soft state. Those 4 frames occur just after what @marylander1940 shared with us. The guys in the back turn around again and walk to the front and high five their teammates, with their teammates' bodies blocking the view of the full frontal nudity. But in 4 frames, the blocking is insufficient 😁

In any given year, at least 30% of Los Angeles' water comes from the Northern Sierra Mountains, which is located in Northern California. Los Angeles does not keep that water separate, using it only for indoors while relying on other sources for fire hydrants. See graph below: the "Los Angeles Aquaduct" water comes from Owens Avenue in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. The Metropolitan Water District gets a majority of its water from the Colorado River. Sorry I couldn't find a more recent chart. It was the first graph that appeared on my Internet search, and I didn't want to take any more time supporting this point.

Thank you for your concern. Las Vegas is the model for water efficiency in the desert. Las Vegas recycles 100% of its water used indoors, and has banned all existing non-functional turf and septic systems effective 2028 as well as mandated new evaporative cooling technology to eliminate water lost to evaporation in the air conditioning process. Las Vegas uses a fraction of the water per person that Los Angeles uses. The Southern Nevada Water Authority has reached out extensively to California to encourage them to be as efficient with water as Las Vegas has been. If Los Angeles used as little water per person as Las Vegas uses, water availability wouldn't be an issue in Los Angeles at the moment.

Or Goodness forbid... You wouldn't meet a man not attracted to an entire sex! (Not attracted to women, not attracted to men, etc.). I didn't need to see gays portrayed in the media to know I was attracted to men and not attracted to women. There are several body types AND attitudes of men I don't find attractive.... And I didn't need media to tell me who IS an asshole, or who HAS an attractive one. 😜 I determined that on my own. I will concede that certain cultures, regions, and professions have different practices or skill sets in the bedroom, and that may influence who I find attractive in the future. For example, I've not met a flight attendant yet who has failed to be outstanding in bed. It must be their service culture.
