Love me some Toshiro Mifune! Wonder how many people know who he is. Kevin Slater

They definitely were a few years back. Somewhat less so now. Kevin Slater

WSC ain't great, but it's what NYC has to offer. I'm told its sister site, the East Side Club is the more depressing of the two. They have coupons online that get you in for $10 after midnight on weekdays (not including Memorial Day, I'm sure) or, if you're under 30, $15 on Wednesday evenings. That's in addition to the $15 one month membership or $40 annual membership. Kevin Slater

He's an absolute zero. (Never met the guy and have no opinion, just a bit of nerd humor.) Kevin Slater

I'm posting without having read any of this thread, so forgive if my account is duplicative. I dropped by this afternoon (a Tuesday) and spend maybe two hours there. There were quite a few extremely good looking and friendly money boys, perhaps outnumbering clients three to one. Most spoke english decently well and were friendly and quite seductive, happy to show their wares. I didn't engage beyond responding to small talk and quickly telling them not to waste their time on me as I wasn't looking to hire. My one complaint is that that didn't suffice. These guys are persistent. Polite, but persistent. A few pointed out that it was an escort venue and implied that if I wasn't looking to hire there was no point being there (I proved them wrong, but that's a different subject ). I would say that if you indeed aren't looking to hire, the barrage of solicitations can be annoying. The place was clean and large. It didn't allow smoking (a major plus in my book, especially when compared to Sauna Casanova down the block which didn't seem to have money boys but a lot of smokers). I didn't ask about rates, but if it was ~€50 as I think I've read, you'd be a fool to hire in any other city. At four times that rate these sexy boys would be a bargain, so long as you're ok with a sauna hook up (which I imagine has its pros and cons). The front desk boy was extremely cute and, shall we say, dedicated to customer satisfaction. He was not a money boy. As an aside, Grindr also seems to have a large number of hustlers in Barcelona. I did ask rates there, it got responses ranging from €50 to 120. To their credit, they did not seem to engage in outbound hustling but simply made it clear when you approach them. I did not sample any professional wares in Barcelona but suspect I will be called upon to do so in Madrid later this week, client in tow. Kevin Slater

The cheapest plan on (yech) M4RN is $30. Rentmen may be ~$80, but that may depend upon city-- I don't know. But a better question is which gives more bang for the buck. Kevin Slater

OK, can we speculate as to what's gonna happen? All of this in conjecture, as I'm only on book three (and unlikely to continue reading), and haven't read any of the fan pages. But here goes... (Conjecture spoiler alert): Obviously Jon Snow is not dead. Or rather he is, but conveniently the red witch, who has a habit of resurrecting the dead, is nearby. Notice what his death accomplishes though. Think about his vow to the Night's Watch: "Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death." So if he dies and comes back, oath taken care of. Why the fixation on Jon Snow (who has had a really boring story line, IMO)? He's the crux of the story. He ain't Ned Stark's bastard son. He's Ned's nephew by the dead sister and the Targareyan she had a fling with. (Don't really remember this but I think it's in there.) Targareyans have a habit of marrying siblings. Daenerys Targaryen is widowed. Wedding bells. Oh, and she has three dragons she's slowly losing control of. Brandon's a worg (controls animals with his mind). Last we saw of him he was told he'd never walk but would fly. Done. Or one third done. Maybe the Imp rides another. He has that special saddle. The Imp is aligned with Daenerys. I say the four of them come together, probably with others, to rule the seven kingdoms, or maybe we unite both sides of the ocean as well. Arrya is roaming around aimlessly, as is now Sansa. Sansa's wolf died in the place of Arrya's (King Robert needed a wolf to kill and took Sansa's when Arrya's bit Joeffry). I think that portends that Sansa is somehow going to die to save Arrya. Don't know how that figures in yet. But he haven't had a good Stark killing in a few seasons now. Just some of where I see all this going. Kevin Slater

I just wanted to point out that this thread, started by Jackhammer in August 2010, has now reached 100 pages. I can think of worse tributes. Kevin Slater

Sure, but in that case I would prefer the movie to be titled something other than Stonewall (and Titanic for that matter). That tittle implies to me that the movie is going to attempt to more or less tell the story of the Stonewall riots, not simply a melodrama set against the riots as a backdrop. Kevin Slater
