If anyone learns of the whereabouts or how to contact Ryan (formerly of Top Men's Spa) or Leo (formerly of 27 Men Spa), please share!

Are you sure it's permanent? I got a call from Shawn/Sean who works upfront because I had an appointment for Friday. He indicated they were closing "indefinitely" but that they hoped to be open again before long. Given that I had just made the appointment with him the day before he called to cancel it, I inferred it was an unexpected problem.

I agree with this take. I use mine in a limited way. It's a really easy way to make pulled pork or chicken (50-60 minutes) and cook veggies (about 10 minutes for most types).

The Physical Therapy Department at Columbia is sure turning out the escorts. ?

The escort's only review is from a "client" who gratuitously proposes a three-way? My Spidey senses are tingling.

Is this because there are additional risks from this vaccine as we age, or is the age limit really an insurance-based restriction based on an assumption about prior exposure to HPV strains by that age? Or something else?

RIP Father of Reggae.

I don't think it's quite that intriguing. I think he's pulled his clip-on suspenders off his shoulders.

I laughed out loud at least three times in this thread, beginning with the verbose rating on the OP by -- you guessed it -- @Kevin Slater. I'm with @Charlie. I had a one-liner tagged as verbose recently.

It's also curious how some long lost souls resurfaced in the forum once the spas reopened.

Not my first concert, but what I would consider my first "bigtime" concert: U2 in 1987. It was so good I've since seen them 34 more times in five countries.

Gents, what's the latest on getting a good pedicure in Manhattan? There was a little bit of chatter on this topic in this threat in Feb/March 2019; Living Fresh had one recommendation and I think that was it. Any more recent recommendations (recognizing no one may have been to these places in months, some places may not have survived, etc.)?

I haven't been there since late February and therefore don't know the full lineup, but I do know Adam is still there and working most days.

Or at least the Re-Erection.

It does not. There is a regular shower stall in the last room on the right (behind the reception desk), but no table shower.

As I understand the situation from news reports, the problem with certain Mexican-made sanitizers was that their active ingredient was methanol, which is toxic when absorbed. The usual active ingredient for safe hand sanitizers is isopropyl alcohol or ethyl alcohol. This next bit I learned from the CDC website: if the active ingredient is isopropyl alcohol, then it should be at least 70% of the product by volume; if it is ethyl alcohol, it should be at least 60%. So, in theory, the ingredient list should tell the tale of what is safe and effective and what is not. Germ-X is another reputable brand that has been around for a while and, at least in my neck of the woods, has been easier to find in stores than Purell.

My general practitioner told me not to waste any money or time on an antibody test given (a) the unreliability of the test (apparently false positives are a problem, one that might be mitigated by repeated tests), and (b) the current medical uncertainty over how long the antibodies provide protection. This is consistent with what I've read in reputable sources about the antibody tests. Assuming the masseur's representation is accurate, I would still give it little to no weight. But maybe one of the docs around these parts can weigh in with a more informed opinion than mine.

That's been my experience with Delta as well. If you're thinking of switching because you haven't flown VA before, I've had a uniformly good experience with the VA flights to and from London (which, like yours, were Delta code-share flights). If you have flown VA before, well, then, nevermind.

What's not to understand? Not every client is a bottom.

I see your schwartz is as big as mine, due to the pandemic.

Counting my blessings.

Mine tends to be a little overinclusive. Wishful thinking, I suspect.

Maybe he used to be a cort. Or maybe he used to have his cort certificate but doesn't anymore.

He took down his ad in March - I don't think he's comfortable getting back in the game yet and won't be for some time. That's surmise on my part, but I talk to him regularly.

This one looks to be on 56th at 8th.
