Down to $2.98 in Palm Springs. Is this the longest (time-wise) active thread in M4M history?

I use premium gas in my car, and when I went to my local station in Palm Springs yesterday, the price was $4.02/gal. Time to break out the bike.

I just noticed that I made the very first reply in this thread, in Nov. 2001, when I paid $1.38 for hi-test in Philly. Yesterday I paid $3.75 for hi-test (for the same car!) in Palm Springs. And my income is half what it was in 2001. No wonder I'm not doing much hiring.

I suspect that if we did the "six degrees of separation" game in Hooville, we would discover that almost everyone has some escort in common.

And even though he doesn't show his face in his ad, I think he is one of the most handsome men with whom I have ever had sex (and that is a lot of men!).

I saw this movie last night, despite the stupid title, because the main character is an escort, and the movie was reputed to have an unusual twist. The movie is narrated by X, a 30 year old (advertised age 25, of course) escort, who is supported by a coterie of twelve clients (the Catholic religious references are rife throughout the film). When one client dies, he acquires a new one, a cultured elderly man who wants only conversation until, he says, X truly desires to have sex with him. X claims not to have had sex with anyone except for money since age 12, and is severely emotionally repressed. Naturally, he is deeply in love with his beautiful roommate but will not admit it, despite the roommate's invitations to a relationship. The twist is that he eventually does have passionate sex with the elderly client--the only extended sex scene in the movie, an interesting dramatic choice--and that finally allows him to open up emotionally. Although this sounds rather heavygoing, the film is mostly comedy, and often quite amusing, so you know there will be a happy ending for everyone. The problem for me, as a viewer, was that the plot was quite predictable yet highly improbable, with too many convolutions and flat, unnecessary characters. I also found watching the sex between escort and client unnervingly deflating--it made me feel that it was time for me to stop hiring escorts, because I wouldn't be able to get those images out of my mind. Anyone else have reactions to this film?

Today's coverboy Cory in SF should start the juices of armpit hair lovers. Too bad that the review is by a first timer who doesn't sound totally believable to me.

I do not have a foot fetish, but I have had intimate contact with Ace's feet, and they are very nice indeed.

Ima Hogg was a socialite in either Houston or Dallas. I once had a student whose name was Toya Lett--I think her mother must have been feeling a lot of hostility when she chose the name.

There is a new review of Cuttler (notice the two "t"s)today.

He does have reviews here.

Yawn...I live in Palm Springs, where I can't go to the gym or to a restaurant without seeing a porn star or starlet. The other day my waiter was Dillon Press.

Over the last week it has been going up three or four cents a day here in the desert. Right now regular is about $2.42 at my local Chevron.

Just curious: is this the longest running ongoing thread in the history of the MB?

I paid $2.54 for regular last night in Palm Springs. I have 2 cars, but I am only driving the one that uses regular, because the other uses premium, which is now $2.74 here.

When I lived in PA, I bought gas regularly in NJ, because it was cheaper in Jersey even though I had to pump my own in PA. Now I am pumping my own again in CA, and paying almost twice what I was paying in PA when this thread started.

I have just moved from the East coast to the West, and drove across the country last week. I was paying $1.99 for premium in Philadelphia, saw prices drop as low as $1.78 in the deep South, and encountered $2.50 in my new neighborhood gas station in southern California. Time to break out my trusty bicycle.

I think the only reason to watch basketball is for the free throws. I particularly like pale whiteboys with very dark hairy pits, glistening with sweat.

For myself, an all-nighter in New York with Rex Brant, Reese Rothmeier, Vince Gannon and Gino Mancuso, followed by one week at a spa in Arizona to recuperate, followed by an all-nighter...etc. For the rest of you, nothing but experiences which you can rate "Satisfactory" or "Recommended."

In Philadelphia I am paying $1.38 for hi-test.

A beautiful face will always make up for an uninteresting--even deformed--body; a great body goes well with a plain or even ugly face. I want one or the other, and don't particularly care which. A beautiful face on a great body is almost too intimidating to be hot.
