  1. growing up in Chicago, my mother always bought Fannie May Easter eggs for us; they were wonderful; and Frango mints from Marshall Field's; up until a couple of years ago, I found them at Macy's here, but not lately

    In its day, Marshall Field’s was a great store. Those wonderful Frango mints were made in the State Street store so they were always fresh. My grandfather’s office was in the Marshall Field Annex Building and a trip to his office always included a stop to buy a box of mints.

     

    Tastes of Chicago website has Frango Mints.....same recipe as yesteryear....hi ho silver.

  2. I thought the photos were nice but not what one would expect

     

    yes, exactly what I meant.....not exactly a collection of photos one might choose for an escort advert.....but again, as I said - nothing “wrong” with his choices.....just a bit unusual....(borderline too conservative / modest ?)

  3. They were either ungrateful. Unprofessional by all means.

     

    For an overnight or a trip (as posted already by others on here) deposits are very common.

     

    Reminds me of “once upon a time” -

    I was taking a stud that I had enjoyed a long-lasting hiring arrangement with along on a 10 day vaca to Cabo....

    he had given me a heads-up that he might need an advance on his fee so that he could pay some bills before leaving town....

    I told him no problem / lemme know.....

    he never made the advance request....

    in our limo on the way to the airport, I asked why he had not asked for any money....

    his reply.....when other “clients” found out he was going out of town, everybody had arranged a play date with him before he left town.....he had made much more in those few days before our vaca than he usually did.....he had no need of advance funds at that time.

  4. A lot of the long-running shows (Chicago, Wicked, Phantom) aren't scheduling re-opening until Sept.

     

     

    The Society of London Theatre announced yesterday an extension of the closing of all West End district theatres until June 1st as well....some of the West End district theatres pack patrons in their seats tighter than proverbial sardines in a can.....not sure how fast the crowds are going to be clamoring for tickets in close quarters again.

  5. Shane Harlem maybe?

     

    Shane Amari is his current brand, and he's all over with it across RM, Twitter, Insta....

    He's ripped, hung, wild, fun and has the best ass out there. Woof!

     

     

    “Shane” used to call himself “Border Black”.....there was a lot of buzz about him on this forum when his “Border Black” rentmen advert was “live”

  6. AARP updated the article after this was posted. IRS can't verify eligibility based on info contained in the 1099 so they really want non-tax filers to submit a simple tax form. There were discussion today about basing the payment on the 1099, which is what the Ways & Means committee wants, but what about social security recipients who have dependents? How will they get the extra $500 per dependent. That is still an unanswered question.

     

     

    late update from evening April 01 - mnuchin has clarified / decided how Social Security folks will be handled ——

     

    “Social Security recipients who are not typically required to file a tax return need to take no action, and will receive their payment directly to their bank account,” said Treasury Secretary Steven T. Mnuchin.

  7. The wording in Ivy League’s adverts used to include saying that he wanted to show his clients ”how college guys do it”....those words always had some sexual appeal....I think perhaps his academic graduation made him decide to “update” the wording in his ads.

  8. He was in Manila last week guys. Wouldn’t it have been easier for him to get from there to Australia?

    Oh, and before that, he was all over South America.

     

    I stand by my opinion of him.

     

     

    Not sure why you are bringing Manila into the convo now.....his advert indicates that he is in Chicago now until Thursday.....then LA until this Sunday & then from LA he intends to travel to Sydney.....arriving in time to BBQ on Bondi on this Monday.

  9. Hate to burst your bubble, but if you filed your taxes and paid with a physical check you will get your stimulus payment later. The IRS is expecting to release a web portal by April 17th (wheresmystimuluscheck.gov) that you can input bank account information, which will give you your payment faster. While we will be issuing checks, it could take us up to 3 months to issue them all (depending on volume). Banks do not want Treasury to issue very many checks because so many branch locations have closed and most do not accept mobile deposit of Treasury checks due to fraud concerns.

     

    As an additional piece of information, IRS does not have access to Social Security payment information. The law gives us the ability to redirect stimulus payments to bank accounts if we have that for Social Security or Veterans benefit payments, but the details still have to be worked out. It's in the hands of the lawyers.

     

     

    If you are receiving Social Security benefits but didn’t file taxes in 2018 or 2019, you will be eligible to receive a stimulus check without a tax return based on data available to the IRS from your annual Social Security benefits statement. The government will send you a direct deposit or check using the information from your Form SSA-1099 Social Security Benefit Statement or your Form RRB-1099 Social Security Equivalent Benefit Statement. You will not have to file a 2019 tax return to get a stimulus check.

  10. “New” escort ???.......

    weird - his ad / membership began today....but -

    he ends his advert saying that “I don’t check RM often so please text / call”

    (but also, some of his pics look familiar like perhaps from some other advert)

  11. I actually filed and paid our 2019 taxes by check on March 13 (silly me!), so I assume we will be getting a direct deposit into the account on which the check was drawn. Right?

     

     

    I think expecting the IRS to lift your bank info from a physical check sent in with a tax return is an erroneous expectation....In your case, if you already receive Social Security via direct deposit, then the IRS will have access to the needed info....

    There is some chatter that coming soon - the IRS will have a website (& / or) an app up & running where one can transmit bank info to them if your bank info for direct deposit is not with any of the various governmental agencies yet.

  12. This guy is the definition of irresponsibility. He’s been traveling all around the world with the whole Coronavirus thing going on and is still going to travel to Australia in the coming weeks. Please take note if you plan to consider his services.

     

     

    Going by his screen name, he might be an Australian resident or national.....if so, he might find a flight & get himself onboard easier than some others.....even so, if / when he lands in Australia, he’s mandated to a 14 day quarantine.....his dream of flitting around the country from town to town would be forcibly delayed

  13. I believe I remember him-blondish hair. In some of his ads didn't he have a leather harness on? If I'm thinking of the right guy, are you sure he wasn't versatile? I thought I had considered hiring him. But I don't hire strict tops. On the other hand I used to do a lot of window shopping, so maybe he was a top I thought was attractive enough to keep looking at although I would have never hired him.

     

    Gman

     

    I’m all bottom.....for me, Christopher was a hot top.....

    if he was versatile with / for others, great !!!

    but a convo about his own bottoming skills never happened between us.....
