With the 3AM ad she did at least as much for McCain as she did for herself, and now she's set a path for McCain to have a 7-week free pass to attack the Democrats while she basically does the same thing--even though mathematically it is almost impossible for her to achieve the delegate lead. So 7 more weeks of this crap after which she will *still* not have the delegate lead! She'll then continue on with the hope of overturning the popular vote with backroom superdelegate deals and anything else she can grasp at such as counting elections where her opponent followed the rules and didn't compete... All this just to get the nomination to a race that many feel she can't…

Whoa! Mexico – where the tequila is cheap and real men don't eat tuna tacos. Mexico City is a cheap flight into another world –the American dollar is still strong, tourists are welcome and people party all night and day. You'll find yourself surrounded by beautiful dark-skinned boys and have lots of chances to have fun in the sun. It's absolutely gaytastic! You'll find everything is cheaper in Mexico than you would expect. And the city has lots of the charm and vitality of Rio and Buenos Aires, but is much easier to get to than other Latin American countries. That makes Mexico City great for a long weekend or a spur of the moment trip to find some Latin love! …

Well, 4 minutes is about as long as it would take for me to orgasm with Leonardo DiCaprio. But, Madonna just came out with a new video called 4 Minutes with Justin Timerlake. It is excellent. Madonna still looks fucking amazing and only gets better with age. She still has the moves and the combo of the two of them together looks fantastic, Has anyone else seen this video? What did you think?

I recently emailed an escort who lives in two cities to ask if he was going to be in City A while I was going to be there. Here is the response: this is XXXX i maybe there then, ill have my add on rentboy if im usly in City B alot, Beyond my tendency to get out the red pencil (capitalization, punctuation, spelling?), I have trouble with this email because it is barely understandable. I take it that XXXX will have an ad on Rentboy if he's going to be in City B. Dick

The Mac show is in January and they always have a new product. This time around it is supposed to be a new laptop. Some even say an ultra portable. If you are planning on getting a mac laptop, you may want to wait one month to see the new version. Apple stands to do well over the holidays and add to their cash purse. They have over 14 billion in cash and are expected to add another 1 or 2 billion over the holidays. Amazing.

http://www.time.com/time/politics/article/...1725678,00.html Personally, I love the idea. Here is the time article: Unlike Barack Obama, Bill Clinton does not believe in "the fierce urgency of now." The former President has an exquisitely languid sense of how political time unfurls. He understands that those moments the political community, especially the media, considers urgent usually aren't. He has seen his own election and reelection—and completing his second term—pronounced "impossible" and lived to tell the tale. He remembers that in spring 1992 he had pretty much won the Democratic nomination but was considered a dead man walking, running third behin…

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/25/washingt...amp;oref=slogin It appears that troops who have already served too many tours in Iraq can look forward to more of them. Bush's statement of sympathy for the families of the 4000 military dead sounds more fake by the minute. All he and his pigpenful of supporters in and out of the right-wing media scene make clear is their feeling that their hallucinatory objectives in this tragic situation are worth any sacrifice, provided somebody else is making it.

The dollar is now trading at 1.56+ per euro, and is also sinking compared to other currencies, the yen included. This article asks how low it can go. The answer is that no economist knows exactly, but all agree it will get worse before it gets better. With the dollar goes our influence in the world. I understand Bush is coming to NY today to deliver an "upbeat" speech about the nation's economy. I bet that will allay lots of fears. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/14/business...amp;oref=slogin

Today at the Exxon station on the approach to the 96th St. entrance to the West Side Highway I saw regular gas advertised at 3.65 a gallon. In my parochial way, rather than sympathize with the much more gas-dependent rest of the country, I thought first with some self-satisfaction that this is one more addition to the long list of reasons for me to be happy that I got rid of my last car some years ago and removed myself from the multitude of masochists who insist against all reason on bearing the grueling burden of owning a car in Manhattan.

http://travel.nytimes.com/2008/03/16/trave...html?ref=travel All this talk of going south for good but affordable times floods my memory with thoughts of the brilliant Carmen Miranda, who saved dull Alice Faye movies from oblivion. One of her best songs from those younger and more innocent days has lyrics that are, by today's standards, prescient: Ai, ai, ai, ai Have you ever kissed in the moonlight In the grand and glorious Gay notorious South American way* *In its day pronounced Souse American in affectionate imitation of her accent. Lyrics that are camp by today's standard were widespread then. The lines that follow the ones in the topic title go: You'll be…

I heard a news item on NPR today about the new gussied-up new bill. In the course of delivering the item, the guy actually used the word "fin". It activated my nostalgia and made me regret the passing of that term from common usage, along with: sawbuck, double sawbuck and century note, not to say simoleon.

While the media and pundits work themselves into a lather over Eliot Spitzer's problems, admittedly grave, little attention is being paid to this story about what happens to anybody in any government position who tries to talk sense to Bush. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/12/washingt...amp;oref=slogin

Because of a commitment I can get out of only at the cost of disgracing myself, I'll be in Europe next month. The dollar is plunging determinedly toward the status of scrap paper. Euro prices on the most basic necessities are skyrocketing. I'll be spending like a prince to live like a pauper. So much for the glamor of travel. On the up side, a spot of starvation could do a lot to restore my imperially slim silhouette of yore, or so I can hope. I assume that other travel destinations will reap the benefit of Europe's disadvantage. More power to them.

The Wire had its last episode last night. I'll miss it. I was addicted despite its unrelievedly joyless outlook. It also made Baltimore look like one of the bleakest places in the known universe. Does the city deserve that kind of treatment?

Hey Guys, In the spirit of getting some more debates and topics going on here, it has occured to me that, at this time of year with the days getting longer and spring approaching, I tend to see more guys. I have been busy trawling through the 500+ ads in the Gaydar commercial section and checking out other sites aswell for some new hot boys. So how about everyone else? Do you see guys regularly or are there times in the year when you are more active than others?

http://www.ubs.com/1/e/about/sponsor/cultu...y/wedgwood.html A museum-grade exhibition, instructive, beautifully mounted, entirely lit by natural light, and boasting an expensively produced brochure. On the down side: - its subject matter isn't one to bring the crowds out; - it's in a space carved out of a busy lobby in a location far below the sniffy radar of the usual gallery mob; - there is no visible advertising to museumgoers; - it keeps strange hours and is dark on weekends. The net result is one of the city's best-kept secrets. Two of us went one mid-morning and had the place to ourselves. A great luxury for us, but the show deserves more attention.

It has been 3 years now since Hooboy died. On the anniversary of his death, I think back on him often. He has such a wonderful vision and a great attitude on life. He helped more escorts than anyone can imagine and he changed the way the world hires escorts. Today, I had a bottle of wine in his memory at the place I last saw him in Thailand. I am sure he is looking down on us and smiling, laughing and cracking a joke or two.

Hey guys just what exactly does it take to get a thread going around here??? The review process on this site is, in my opinion, far superior to that on the other site BUT the forum participation around here SUCKS. I posted the exact same thread entitled "CURRENT HIRING PRACTICES" on both sites. On the the other side the thread has twelve responses not including my three additional ones. On this site the responses has totaled exactly 0. Frankly I would like to post my reviews and participate on the forums RIGHT HERE but thus far that hasn't been possible. Let's get going guys, wake up and start making provocative and interesting posts in which we can all become invol…

It never ceases to amaze me that at Daddy's and Muscle Forum how many people ask for Info on a guy with no link to see who they are talking about. You would think that when the poster wants info he would attempt to make it convenient and encouraging for someone to answer his question. Also amazes me when they get no response and bump and or express question as to why no one has responded. Many like Steven Draker, Tom Isern and Eric generally step up to the plate to furnish the link. We seem much better over here in that regard. In particular a poster with over 5000 posts who chimes in on every thread numerous times with his expert opinion who NEVER posts a link becau…
