Oh, I like "twinkling"! Gets me thinking about other possibilities, e.g. twinklet.

I didn't know, or didn't remember, that AL was involved with creating this site's predecessor. If you -- or anyone else -- knows more, I (for one), would love to hear about it. [My intention was not to create a long excursus in the original topic -- if one of our tech experts can create a new topic on this subject, preserving these few posts, please feel free to do so with my thanks.]

<going off topic> oh, that name brings back memories...way way back I discovered his web site. And then, one day, he asked his readers to vote for him (as escort of the year?) on hooboy's site...and now, as a result, I'm here. Maybe Aaron Lawrence deserves his own thread.

It's always hard to say what's "normal" based on a few visits each year. But I can say for sure that it's much more normal now than it was in the past. Back then, dancers were very wary about going back to the hotel with customers they didn't know well (and many just didn't do hotel privates, period). Typically it would take multiple evenings of lap dances before the question would get a "yes". (This is making me nostalgic about my first such experience...after asking and getting turned down on night 1, suddenly on night 3 the dancer, without any prompting from me, told me he'd be willing to go back to my hotel. When I asked what had changed, he said "now I know you.") Nowadays, I am often offered hotel visits by dancers I'm chatting with at the bar, even before we've done a private lap dance.

Dorothy Parker, I believe.

I thought the paid tour was well worth the price (I did it a long time ago, around 2007). I had previously done the free gardens, but apart from the house itself, the tour includes many other landscaped parts of the estate. The pictures in @foxy's post give you an idea. Back then, it was imperative to reserve well in advance, at least in high tourist season...IIRC, we went online the moment the dates we were interested in went on sale.

Late to this thread. I first met Keven at Campus in Montreal on his first day as a dancer. He was very young then (certainly in his teens), didn't know the ropes, and startled me with how far he was willing to go in a private dance (use your imagination) -- his initiative, not mine. Over the years, I would run into him from time to time at various strip clubs, sometimes as a dancer, sometimes as a customer, though he didn't appear to be a regular dancer at any of them. We would chat occasionally; he was always pleasant and interesting. Never got around to hiring him outside of the clubs, even when he started advertising. If the reports here are correct, I do wonder why he would choose to attend a private US university.

I'm not a particular fan of WWII history, but Torch and Overlord are familiar to me. Market Garden and Jupiter are a bridge too far.

Thanks to @mike carey and @Luv2play for their responses. I did google it myself later in the day and found the explanation. But both @mike carey and wikipedia seemed to think that "Operation Market Garden" was something I would know about. Am I really so out of things? Is this something well-known to the most people?

I always wondered about the origin of that expression (yes, I know about google).

Eclipsophile has complete information about all aspects of this eclipse, specifically including weather information for locations along the path of totality. I can tell you from experience that weather is the most important variable in choosing a viewing site. Here is another site with nice animations (although I couldn't find weather information there).

My understanding (from a friend who recently bought one) is that an annual Golden Age Passport costs $20; a lifetime pass is $80. BUT...if you buy 4 annual passes (in 4 successive years? --not sure), you get, or can get, an annual pass free of charge.

Is it really your mailman's fault? In my neighborhood, the mail carriers have a full day's work and someone has to be last. My own mailman varies the order in which he does his route...he can arrive at my house any time in the afternoon between 1 and 6 pm.

This is called an origin story I think....

When I "wondered" above, I had forgotten the most obvious way this happens...someone asking if you're married or have a girlfriend, which is not uncommon in social situations. I still find that an intrusive question, but less objectionable than "are you gay?".

One has to wonder why someone would ask such a question (in general; obviously there are specific circumstances or conversations where it might be appropriate).

The dancers who were not invited to his table compensated by being extra attentive to the other customers, especially in the back rooms....

He would spend his afternoons/early evenings at Campus (that's when there was something actually happening at Campus in the afternoon) and then move on to Stock. He had a stable of retired dancers who would come out of the woodwork to sit at his table and enjoy his generosity. I once struck up a conversation with a couple of other out-of-town visitors at Campus and mentioned the DL and how he behaved...the guys laughed and said "that's our friend (name)". We compared enough details to convince me they knew him. They had lots of stories about him, most of which I've long since forgotten. Although I initially found his presence annoying, I came to enjoy watching him interact with the dancers...and miss him and those Campus afternoons.

Thanks for the comprehensive report! Sounds like not much has changed at Stock from 6 months ago -- I, too, found Santiago (and no other dancer) worth the visit. Is it still the case that Campus is essentially dead until 9 pm?

So I've got to ask...how long does it take to get over the embarrassment of having your junk pretty obvious to the public? It happens quite often, judging from the pictures (not the obviously doctored ones) that are posted here and in the college wrestling thread. Another question: In the moment are wrestlers so focused on the sport that they don't feel horny?

What an ad for your services!

Rufus Kampa, who plays the young Prince William in Episode 1, is surely enough reason to watch!

if you don't know taz, you clearly don't know much about montreal

Would you be willing to indicate which are willing to get sensual? Private message if you'd prefer. Thanks.
