Chicago Forum Weekend

[+ ursalex]

The Chicago Forum Weekend was a blast! First, thanks to Mr. Dane Scott and Mr. Chris Eisenhower for all of your planning. You brought together a great group of escorts, clients and friends who genuinely got along well and had a great time. The two "official" events -- the Saturday morning boat ride on the Chicago River, and the Saturday evening dinner at Jack's on Halsted, were both great opportunities to meet and greet. And we seemed to get together in other combinations, including other dinners, shopping, even workouts in the hotel gym. The weather cooperated for a beautiful weekend, and I hope a good time was had by all.

 

The escorts present (Dane Scott, Chris Eisenhower, Ace, Raul Castro, Zack Wilson -- I think I got them all) were gentlemen and the ones who were not already my friends quickly became much more than acquaintances. The clients and friends present -- too numerous to mention -- are all people I want to spend more time with. This was my "virgin" experience at a Forum event, but now that I'm broken in, I hope to attend many more.

 

Thanks for a great weekend of fun, food, laughter, and, yes, sex!

The forum shindig in Chicago was an amazing experience. Not everyone attended every event so my numbers may be a bit off, but I think there were at least 20 of us. The working boyzes included Nate Bruno/SF (who had to leave us early ), Chris E, Dane S, Zach W, Raul M, Ace, and Romann...and the clients were just as awesome! I never once felt out of place or unwelcome; I even stayed a day longer than I'd planned to. Folks, if you have the chance to attend a forum event, GO. It's the best way to feel like a member of this "tribe" (or, as another attender put it, the "brotherhood.")

I forgot Nate SF (whom I met for two minutes) and Romann. So sorry guys. I'll have to make it up to you (wink).

Now that we have the Forum back (which I, for one, really, really missed), I want to add my overdue thanks to Chris & Dane for organizng the Chicago weekend. It was a great getting re-aquainted with the working guys, all of whom I have had the privilege of having met before. Also enjoyed sharing experiences with the "hiring" guys and gal; it was a fun time. SInce I missed both the DC and Palm Springs gatherings this year, it was especially fun to reconnect with this community.

Sorry but I must correct one little thing (and believe me, his is NOT little. Lol!) but it is Raul G. Manzo, not Castro. One means beef (!!!) in Italian and the other is the name of a Cuban dictator and his family or a neighborhood in San Francisco! I do not usually try to be the spelling police but I want Raul's name to be correct in case a reader might want to check this hot guy out!

Raul Castro is Fidel Castro's brother and current Cuban President :-)

I'm never gonna post again -- forgot two escorts and got a third's name wrong. Oh well...

Hey ursalex - don't feel too bad - you did get the conversation started again!

Hey ursalex... Ditto... Don't feel bad at all... I actually thought the typo was a bit funny... As Raul G. Manzo is not only one of the really good ones... but also someone who has gotten a double WG seal of approval... from two different guys known as WG...

 

Plus, Raul got some well deserved publicity out of the deal... So not a bad thing at all!!! As I said he is one of the best!!!!

Does "Manzo" mean beef, TruHart? I didn't know that.

 

As for Ursalex, you're more than welcome to post anytime you want. My friend used to say: "Correcting is about CARING!" Now, you're sure to get his name right next time. :-)

Interestingly manzo not only means beef, steer, etc., but colloquially it also references a country bumpkin... Now Raul is indeed a prime piece of beef... a bumpkin he ain't!!!!

Flogger or paddle, mister? And get that grin off your face!

 

I was sorry to have to cut out before things really got started, but really glad to have had the chance to meet up Friday night. Considering things hadn't really been firmly arranged for that night, it came together really well and I think speaks well for our group to be able to improvise. I wouldn't have expected Carmine's to have been able to seat us all, but somehow it all worked.

 

And a girl! I believe Tyro made Forum History here, and I was thrilled we finally got to meet. Likewise, great meeting all the guys behind the screennames - both new acquaintances, as well as those who have become great friends.

 

Many thanks to Chris and Dane for putting this all together, and also Ace who I know was involved behind the scenes too. I think you're on to something with this Chicago shindig!

I did not mean any criticism at all, ursalex. Keep posting and we'll keep the conversation going! I am happy you brought RGM up. He and Dane Scott are two of my absolute favorites in Chicago, well Dane isn't in Chicago anymore but that is where I was lucky enough to first meet him!!! Now not only is Palm Springs hot weather-wise but has one of the hottest men I've ever met!!!

Raul is a very sophisticated man, certainly no country bumpkin in any way!!! But should you require an answer to that age-old advertisement question, "Where's the beef?" look no further than Raul!

That is so true Truhart1!!!!! The sophistication of Raul is quite extraordinary... and to paraphrase a quote from Stendhal... "His sophistication knows no bounds save those of civilization itself". The same goes for his intelligence... Not to mention a few "other" talents!!

[zach_wilson]

Thanks so much to Dane and Chris for setting up this wonderful meet up. I had a great time on the tour as well as at Jacks. I appreciate everyone for engaging in such great conversation and really making it feel as though everyone has known each other for years and not leaving anyone out. I hope to see everyone at the next forum get together, where ever that may be. I plan my whole year around our Washington trip and look forward to that as well as any other forum events I can make. xo

Add to all this that RGM has such an encyclopedic knowledge of his adopted city of Chicago that he can show you more in one visit than I think the majority of native Chicagoans would even know about! If he retires from escorting in say, twenty or thirty years, he certainly has the talent and knowledge to start a Chicago tour business, should he so desire!!! (I didn’t even mention what he is best at! )

The weekend was a blast. Dane and Chris planned everything well, and it was great seeing so many old contacts and making new ones.

Kudos to Dane and Chris for making the Chicago Weekend happen! As always the highlight of events such as this was the opportunity to meet the working boys and other clients. I now have a face to put with names, - Tyro, I never would have guessed!
