  1. Goddamn, I was kidding….you’re a fucking icon! In 2001, the Eagle move to 28th between 10th and 11th. And the world has never been the same.
  2. If I can’t have a funeral pyre…..I’m not going! https://www.nytimes.com/2022/05/18/us/colorado-funeral-pyre.html
  3. I’m not sure you understand the difference between "Afternoon Tea" (a.k.a "Low Tea") and "High Tea". https://www.thespruceeats.com/high-tea-vs-afternoon-tea-765832 I have a feeling that what you’re after is afternoon tea, because that’s what most non-Brits would think of as a "proper British Tea". Traditionally, it’s a formal woman’s affair. Not that it can’t be causal (and male), I’m just not sure there’s much of a market for such a beast. People often assume high tea is the fancy one….it’s not. And it’s not what most people think of when they are talking about having “Tea" in Britain. High tea is more like an early Workman’s dinner. Casual to be sure, but I don’t think it’s what you seek. Sorry, I don’t have any suggestions, but I thought clear terminology might help you find what you’re after.
  4. Weren’t you there when they laid the corner stone at the original Eagle on 21st and 11th Ave? Like sometime in the early 1820’s…….grin
  5. Now THERE’S two men who know how to have SEX!
  6. Another one with bad math skills….. 1 hour $150 2 hour $350? "I’ll take Two 1-hour massages please….back to back"
  7. It’s one of my favorites too. There’s nothing better than taking a break during a Met Museum marathon and eating a "dirty water frank" on the steps outside. God, I love this city!
  8. Just fixing the link to save everyone time….. https://rent.men/NEXXON
  9. Yes, it is becoming extraordinarily common. On a recent trip, 3 different provides had confirmed more than 24 hours in advance. Each waited until 5 minutes before the appointment to tell me that they were "running a little late" and would be over an hour late. All three got axed immediately and lost out on meeting a great client. Unfortunate, but so be it.
  10. Now there’s a man I can “get behind” petitioning to get his job back after he publishes his homemade porn online! grin
  11. Just a reminder that a "masquerade ball" is not a "costume party". There is a very distinct difference. Dressing up as a specific historical character (or even Batman for that matter) would be appropriate at the former, but not the latter. In general, masquerade balls are more formal and upscale events. Elegant, whimsical, restraint is the key.
  12. The mask is everything. Many "look cheap" like they were made with items from the local craft store. Also be careful of "too large". Bigger isn’t always better. I always thought Mia Farrow’s look at Truman Capote’s Black and White Masquerade Ball was simple and perfect. Most importantly it has to be a mask you feel comfortable and confidant wearing. A masquerade ball is performance art and you have to sell the look. You can’t do that in a mask you’re constantly adjusting or feel silly wearing. I think your best bet is something unique and handmade, preferably in leather, from an Etsy designer. I agree a tux is an elegant and relatively easy solution, but if you’re going full Venetian fantasy mask, consider going the whole nine yards with an over-the-top period or steampunk outfit to match. At a benefit where I was asking for a donation though, I’d stick with a tux. After all, if it was good enough for Sinatra, it’s good enough for you.
  13. I thought Newfoundland was next to Australia….. And, why did they name a province after a dog?
  14. Yes and no. I don’t know of one COVID case that was ever linked to an exchange of cash. "Touch-less transactions" are a "cure" in search of a disease.
  15. I would, if I knew any of their real names. Why would I not leave my estate to those who have brought me joy?
  16. Ridiculous. It’s just not a great movie. People need to get over themselves.
  17. God, I hate apple picking. And there’s even more work after you get home….trying to get rid of them all.
  18. Sometimes, you want your boat to be "destroyed"…. Trust me.
  19. I love repeat regulars. Unfortunately, at the moment, no one is in that category. It takes a special man and a special connection for me to want to repeat.
  20. Like I said….I’m not going to Jersey! grin
  21. Even then….only for F
  22. There is. Typically they can even run it off the same swab or urine sample that you send for GC/Chlamydia. It’s statistically more common than GC and less common than Chlamydia. I’m not sure I understand the logic in waiting for test results or a treatment failure of the other two before testing for mycoplasma, but I’m not the CDC.
  23. It’s bad.. I sped it up to 1.5X playback speed and it was still painfully slow. Beyond the shock factor (which over 30 years later isn’t really there) it’s just a ridiculously boring story. Loaner freak lures men to his home, drugs them, strangles them, dismembers them, eats them. Repeat. There’s just not a lot of "plot" to develop there. Did I mention it was s-l-o-w….and b-o-r-I-n-g?
  24. Add 15 lbs. to that pic? Oh no baby….that’s false advertising. Plain and simple.
