Is it so hard to imagine Thai guys not wanting to be sex masseurs? Legitimate massage has its place.

I really like Le Meridien. Great breakfast buffet too.

You're going to Brazii and you don't speak Spanish? Horrors! But then, Brazilians speak Portuguese.Some can get by in Spanish.

My visa expires days before my next trip to Brazil...which is before October 1st.

On my first visit to Thailand, it was 300 short time, 400 if especially hot.It was 22 baht to the dollar then. I hope the Brasilians don't catch on.

...are men. Thus called masseurs! Not giving you a hard time as this is a common mistake, but women don't work these places.

I sure like to be physically fit.

Where would the Thailand news be without @vinapu and his numerous posts, and then @Olddaddy with his hundreds of threads? Two guys devoted to keeping the forums going. Kudos!

Ka-ching!

Well, once again I say that I regret the remark It was not good thinking on my part. I apologize.

I am surprised that @reader would quote my comment an hour after I withdrew it. It was my intention that it be ignored since I cannot delete it.

You just started posting here, at least under this name. Your remark is out of line. This is a community with a long and glorious history that has allowed you in only to see you trash whole peoples and individual posters.

Thanks for the correcttve. I withdraw the remark.

The cab driver was pimping his son? Wow.

Because it could be their last Pride parade before China invades?

I don't think I suggested forgiving Trump for his crimes in the Alvin Bragg prosecution. There are two ways to go after wrongdoing. Civil allows for damages and fines, but no jail. Obviously criminal allows for jail, but my point is that Trump will not serve a day even if convicted.If I am right, civil is then better. The proof is not beyond a reasonable doubt, but by a preponderance of the evidence. So hit Trump with massive damages and penalties...by a preponderance of the evidence. A criminal case by Bragg will be, and is being, overshadowed by the bigger prosecutions.

Those were great days. I wonder why they changed.

I was in London once and discovered it was Gay Pride Day, so went to see the parade and loved it!

Istanbul is advertising itself as "the new cool."

A stripper in Porto Alegre once was the handsomest/sexiest guy I had seen in Brazil. A real treat to watch him on stage! I tipped him, but he wasn't sticking around.

I fail to see what @Leroy82said that was so wrong. I went through the entire thread.

Today I thought that I had completed the task. My flights were booked and I used my remaining Lifemiles to book hotels. Finished! Then I checked the flights to see if they were offering seat assignments,only to learn that the Panana/Rio flight had been canceled. I went through the hell of the Lifemiles phone system and finally got someone who barely spoke English. He said he couldn't just rebook the canceledd segment, he had to rebook the LAX segment too. What he offered me was horrible with a long stay in Panama. He wouldn't tell me if we were still booked in Business Class, so I excused myself and said I couldn't decide now. What I was hoping for was to call back and get someone who spoke better English. Then I saw on FlyerTalk that one shouldn't bother fixing cancellations until very close to departure as the flights were likely to change again. I regret ever becoming involved with Lifemiles!

Having known the Pattaya of days past, I wonder what the value of a current visit would be. (Not monetarily.) It used to be quite fun. Chaing Mai may be a better side trip these days. But that's just a guess.

I am glad to hear good things about Copa as we are flying their Business Class this summer.

I was at the old Twilight one night and had not picked anyone. The mamasan was not happy. So, sure that he was unavailable, I pointed to a cute kitchen worker and said I like him. Minutes later he was at my side.
