Charlie

OMG! He looks like Carlos Alcaraz!

In the text he says "Palm Springs is home." But the ad and the "map me" function shows him in Atlanta.

Not his year. The weather for the tournament so far has been extremely variable--sun, heat, rain, wind, cold, often all on the same day. I used to always go to the "free" days at the beginning of the tournament, but now they are charging admission even for the qualifying rounds. I will watch comfortably from home on the Tennis Channel.

Friends, sunshine, chocolate, tennis, something interesting to read.

So, the Dutch players have managed to take out both Zverev and Djokovic. I wonder if Tallon and Botic could meet in the final?

When I lived in London during Wimbledon, 50 years ago, Chris Evert and Jimmy Connors were an item, and the British media paid more attention to that than to their tennis scores.

Griekspoor is in Potapova's box today! I just saw him.

FWIW, his "map me" location on RM is just the default site for ads in PS, not where he is actually located there.

I never thought he was sexy when he was young, but I saw him in some footage of Djokovic the other day, and he has aged well. Yesterday's match between Zverev and Griekspoor will be hard to beat for excitement. As I feared, Tristan Boyer didn't stand much chance against Tommy Paul. BTW, did I hear correctly that Griekspoor is dating Potapova, and that she was in his box during the match? I wonder if he will be in her box for her match with Keys this morning.

There are so many possibilities for the men, even newcomers (like Tristan Boyer, though he has to play Tommy Paul next), and so many former winners are there again. I just hope it's not the Djoker (I really don't think it will be, and BTW, Andy Murray is looking sexier than he was when he was younger). It was shock to watch Osaka lose to Osorio in the opening round yesterday, in spite of making a few great shots. I hope that Keys can continue to play the way she did in Melbourne.

But what grades did he get in BDSM, WS and Teamview? (I don't even know what CNC, MMF, and "gaped with a cock sleeve" mean!)

Yes, but I don't even want them to know what kinds of credit cards I possess.

Is it plausible that a straight 23 year old actually has experience with all the things he says he is into?!

Requests for donations to charitable or political causes these days almost always include a credit card option. I never use it. If I can't send a check or give cash, I won't donate. When I open my wallet or checkbook, I can see exactly what I can afford to give, but with a credit card I feel pressured to be too generous. I also don't want the person requesting the donation to know what credit accounts I have.

Looks more like "boy-handled."

My favorite poster has always been Lucky. (Do I dare not to say that😬?)

"Away in a manger, no crib for his bed..."

Isn't that Al Parker?

I think it may be how Gen Z men define "bi-sexual." If they ever let a guy suck their cock, they may consider that being "bi-sexual," or just fooling around with another guy when there were no women available. For my generation, bi-sexual meant actually desiring to have sex with other men, including getting fucked and sucking. There is also less fear among the young about being identified as bi-sexual than there was years ago when one was more likely to be punished in some way for admitting to being anything other than straight. The rise in identifying as bi may be nothing more than an increase in honesty in surveys about personal behavior.

I have already made it a threesome.Anyone for a foursome?

Welcome to Palm Springs!

Forty pounds is a pretty noticeable loss. It's also possible that people who were used to you when you were heavier are now thinking, "He has gotten so thin, he must be ill..." I had a friend whose husband kept telling her she had gotten too fat, so she went on a severe diet for so long that people who knew her started whispering, "She looks so thin--I wonder if she has cancer?"

Yes, I got the mailing address from my bank statement.

I'll leave that up to you.

A seeming cascade of deaths in recent months of people I was close to--including my spouse and one of my old college roommates--caused me to reflect on the past, and I realized that every human being with whom I have ever lived under the same roof during my life--family members, partners, friends, college roommates--is now gone. It gets harder and harder to move forward as I feel dragged back to the past. I must be growing old at last. (Hmmm, perhaps I should consider finding an attractive young man as a live-in companion🤔.)
