What a way to ruin a sandwich. Good thing he didn't want it grilled first.

Back in my early teens we were all concerned about the possibility of 'nucular' war, just as scientists began to warn about the 'climactic' changes linked to greenhouse gases... and in biology we studied amoebas and other microscopic 'orgasms'.

Thanks for this

Thanks! That looks great - really appreciate it ?

'Sending positive energy your way'... what are we, hydroelectric dams?

Firstly, secondly, thirdly... and so on.

That has happened to me too on RMasseur, but not with this masseur. Every so often I get a message on RMen that someone has shared their private gallery with me, even though I never requested it... oh well.

So I guess that set the bar pretty high. Or maybe, long? ?

I'm thankful you did not follow through.

My favourite is pure Kona coffee, but I've never seen it in pods... has anyone else?

That sandwich looks really good. I'd massage it between my teeth any day.

I think there's a couple of distinctions that can be made here. Just because the masseur didn't begin advertising on that site until the pandemic started doesn't mean he wasn't advertising elsewhere earlier. He could also have been using a different name. Even if that is not the case, we all know there are many people still providing and receiving massage at this time, and seeking feedback is not the same as enouraging people to get massages. I still do not see any hypocrisy in posing the question that was asked.

I know very little about economics myself - was just looking at the issue from a different perspective. I imagine his clientele pool would be smaller than most others.

There are people out there who can afford to donate $1000 per hour for someone's time. Ultimately, if that business model does not result in the desired result, the provider may need to make adjustment. But if it works, then why should the provider not capitalize on the demand? It's done by business operators all the time in any free enterprise economic system.

I think you have the gist of it correct - I don't know the exact figures, but until herd immunity is reached it is wise and responsible to take precautions even after vaccination. For the safety of others.

And sometimes we all need to hear something we may not want to hear.

Agreed! And at least one of us has never gotten a massage, but still participates on this forum. ?

And many more people got the flu shot this year too.

I guess now we know why they had to Make Room for Daddy.

No, sorry. But Im hoping to visit SD and LA when its safe to travel from Canada.

Thanks

Who is it that you normally meet, if you don't mind me asking?

Like @Rudynate, I have always felt old. Or maybe I should say that I have always had an old soul and interests that did not match those of my contemporaries. I am told I look 10-15 years younger than my age, but my worldview and sensibilities are those of someone 10-15 years older. Yet I often still think I'm in my 20s, until I see someone who was born when I was already an adult walking around with kids of their own. That brings me back to reality pretty quick!
