The Beer Bar

As the one year mark approaches for this site it seems only appropriate to reflect and comment. I am not privy to any of the behind the scenes dynamics so my remarks are based on public observations. M.E.R. appears to have begun out of frustration maybe even out of anger. Two men, TY & TO, with complimenting styles joined forces to build a better wheel. I believe they have been successful. Design: The layout is carefully interwoven so that all of the parts work seamlessly together. This is no small undertaking as anyone with even a hint of web design can testify too. Early on there were some expected bumps in the road but management listened , prioritized and ma…

The "other site"is sooooo sloppy and the admins' so lazy that they"let slip by"the disclosure of someones alleged HIV status in a false review by a disgruntlled queen.this was the lame excuse posted today. This is an outrage and proves that "the other site"is not concerned with anyones welfare-either clients or hookers and thus cannot be taken at all seriously.Further proving that they are just in it for the money. >"When one has sex, one should always take in account the possibility that the partner is HIV positive and act accordingly. Anything less is taking unacceptable risks for both parties. Determining the actual status of a partner can only be done over a peri…

I'm sure there are a few fans of the NBC series Heroes that read this forum. As you recall one of the characters was Gay, I say was because it appears that the network or creator has "ungayed" him. Here is a link to a fascinating back peddling article about the topic. http://www.canada.com/topics/entertainment...1bf4522&k=94114

This isn't just some goofy fringe news site. It's WorldNetDaily (which we affectionately refer to as WingNutDaily), a site that all the right-wing pundits use as a source for their daily vitriol. Here's an excerpt: There's a slow poison out there that's severely damaging our children and threatening to tear apart our culture.... The dangerous food I'm speaking of is soy. Soybean products are feminizing, and they're all over the place.... Unfortunately, when you eat or drink a lot of soy stuff, you're also getting substantial quantities of estrogens. Estrogens are female hormones. If you're a woman, you're flooding your system with a substance it can't …

My first review, ever! woohoo! He told me that it was going to take ten days or more to show up on my profile. Why so long? This sucks. ;-) He was very sweet and we had a blast! He sent me a copy of my review...should I post it here? (sorry if this is in the wrong section, just didn't know where else to post it.)

From time to time we see some great eye catching escorts appear on the scene that cause a wave of interest in the community. That is good. With all new faces on the scene there is uncertainty, hence the usefulness of sites like this. However we as a community fly blind in the beginning too. There is no a priori reason to believe that these profiles and the guys behind them are suspect and hopefully they are not. However, they are UNKNOWN quantities. They often involve apparent newbies that may not have the confidence, comfort level and wherewithall to actually get on a plane and fly to meet a stranger in a strange city without credit cards or a bankroll to fall back o…

In quite a few of the escort profiles various activities are listed. I've been around and understand them all quite well except one. That will be "cum diving." What the heck is cum diving?

Just wanted to say Hi. And also wanted to say what a great site this is---I've been looking for awhile. I hope I get a chance to get to know many of you soon. You can find my profile in SoCal Pasadena. :* I've uploaded more pics, should show up soon.

A survey of more than 1,000 men in India has concluded that condoms made according to international sizes are too large for a majority of Indian men. The study found that more than half of the men measured had penises that were shorter than international standards for condoms. It has led to a call for condoms of mixed sizes to be made more widely available in India. The two-year study was carried out by the Indian Council of Medical Research. Over 1,200 volunteers from the length and breadth of the country had their penises measured precisely, down to the last millimetre. The scientists even checked their sample was representative of India as a whole in terms of clas…

I found this article on San Francisco's old and new attitude to be quite interesting. SAN FRANCISCO - An effort to clean up some of the city's seedier neighborhoods and rid the streets of junkies, hookers and runaways has run headlong into San Francisco's free-to-be-who-you-are ethos. The entire story can be found here: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20061209/ap_on_...efending_blight

By Doug Struck Washington Post Friday, December 8, 2006 TORONTO, Dec. 7 -- Canada's House of Commons rejected a move Thursday by Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper to reopen debate on a national law permitting same-sex marriages. The House, by a vote of 175 to 123, defeated the motion brought by Harper to fulfill a campaign promise to opponents of same-sex marriage. Thirteen members of his Conservative Party voted against the motion, reflecting a desire by Parliament not to reopen the issue. "Times have changed. We've moved on. The House has moved on," Bill Graham, a Liberal Party member, said Wednesday in debate on the proposal. After a su…

I have some old shirts that no longer fit.Some of them are very nice and have had little wear-many real designer( purple lable RL,missoni,sulka that sort of thing)that were very expensive when I bought them. I want to clear out my closet a little and thus need to be rid of these-but I don't want them to go to the charity clothes closets.I would rather give them to a charity that will recognize that these are quality goods and should not be handed out to a bum,but rather a person trying to make it back on his feet and needs an appropriate wordrobe. Any suggestions? BTW-I am not being snobbish(well maybe a little:o )but having worked with the homeless in the past know th…

Over at "the other site"Dejj continues his "let's bash our customers anytime one of them has the GALL to critisize the way we do buisness"style of caring customer service. The poster purplekow posted"BN as the coverboy, I know its for the first time in a bit. Don't know him, but I do enjoy his blog and his comments here. But you have several new escorts reviewed and BN gets the cover spot with the new picture. I enjoy reading all the reviews and I guess it is okay to give an extra push to people who really contribute to this site. It seems there has been some call for new blood and here was a chance to bring new blood to the site by highlighting one of the three first ti…

GOOD ADVICE CIRCLING THE INTERNET < Some of this may be a little paranoid, but by and large it’s certainly worth reviewing – especially the quick action to take if you lose your wallet. (I’d like to attribute this to its source, in case any of you know whom to credit.) A corporate attorney sent the following out to the employees in his company. 1. The next time you order checks have only your initials (instead of first name) and last name put on them. If someone takes your checkbook, they will not know if you sign your checks with just your initials or your first name, but your bank will know how you sign your checks. 2. Do not sign the back of your credit ca…

I have been talking to the delightful Brandon Baker about the upcoming Rentboy cruise.It sounds very interesting and interest has exceeded demand as all of the spaces that Rentboy reserved have been booked. I also know that two high profile 'scorts who are booked on this cruise have been having"difficuties"lately and that a fave to face meeting very well might result in some drama. Just wondering if any one on this board will be sailing on this cruise and would be willing to give us a ringside comentary on the deep freeze in Ensenada murder mystery cruise.

I have to admit that I am fascinated and a little perplexed by the fact that, more and more, escorts who are willing to suck my cock, fuck my ass, or even have me fuck theirs are NOT WILLING TO KISS ME. Now I understand that some of these guys have partners and that kissing is not permitted in that relationship but really!!!!! If an escort’s profile states that he doesn’t kiss I move on immediately and no matter how hot the guy is and what else he will do he is off my list of potential future hires. How do some of you other clients feel about this issue?

Todays posts were late because our server went down very early this morning for an extended period. Our host suffered a power failure. Our apologies. TY

OK you got me. What are you referring to or talking about? I don't see anyone saying he is a sissy.... so what, where did I miss? Signed dumbfounded in KY

In the what will they think of next department, German engineers are showing real ingenuity to help make safe sex easier: German sex educators plan spray-on condom From Reuters 10:44 AM PST, November 30, 2006 BERLIN -- German sex educators plan to launch a spray-on condom tailor-made for all sizes. Jan Vinzenz Krause from the Institute for Condom Consultancy, a Singen-based practice that offers advice on condom use, told Reuters today the product aimed to help people enjoy better and safer sex lives. "We're trying to develop the perfect condom for men that's suited to every size of penis," he said. "We're very serious." Krause's team (spraykondom.de) is developing…

Over at daddys place BN posted the following "I think there's a side to all escorts that remains hypercompetitive: We're in a business of choice and that selection is wide, causing us to (either publically or privately) make judgement calls, good, bad or indifferent, about our fellow rentboys. Is this wrong? Hell yes. If done with mal-intent. I admit to sharing my fair share of opinions on situations in the past, but have really tried to clean up my act and realize that in the longrun it's truly meaningless. In concentrating less on outside drama and more on myself, i've found greater maturity and ultimate solace. I'm nowhere near perfect, but as always, do try to walk…
