Lucky

I tried both the "view photo image" where I cut and pasted the properties to enter into the photo icon here, and I also cut and pasted the picture. Those didn't work, so I downloaded it to my computer and then tried to upload it, but no dice. You are skilled!

And may TY be so kind as to once again correct one of headline typos!

Vietnam may become the first Asian country to legalize same-sex marriage, or so the rumors go. Here is an interview with a woman who has photographed gay life in Vietnam, and many of her pictures are featured. One example: http://www.vice.com/...lan-photography

I hate them. Glorious Immortal of Stupendous Superhuman have no relevance. I once was able to choose my own title, and I chose "Lucky Member." But I lost that in the big change. Sorry to say, but I don't want any of the new titles.

I thought the topic might have more appeal than it did, but I am still left with the question, for EXPAT, on how he can post the very same pic that the site refused to let me post. Perhaps Expat can do a tutorial for us?

Everyone is talking about how offensive this cover is, all the while making sure to show it yet again, in case you hadn't seen it. Not picking on EXPAT, the LA Times and other media did the same.

It appears to be, as I am having no problems, but here is there report: AVG PROTECTION PROVIDED ON THIS PC SINCE INSTALLATION Spyware found and removed 0 Files scanned 1512350653 Infected files found and healed 0 So, out of these quadzillions of files scanned, not one thing was found? Are they patting themselves on the back for blocking all threats, or saying they don't work so hard that they can find anything?

Well, I did look, and even laughed. But some are poignant, some are sad, and some are inspiring. 19. A Syrian refugee vs. Mickey Mouse

You could buy this deluxe hand massager at $129.99, plus S&H. Or, you could simply place one hand on top of the other and rub gently. A mitten would do the job as well.

Gee whiz! Loy Kratong is the excuse that all of those lurkers have been using too. They just can't delurk until Loy Kratong is over. I guess the flood of new posters begins...now!

I'm with hito. Why start my day with disturbing images? I'd rather look at Cam4.

Okay, I will tell you right from the start that this interview is from 2010, but it was new to me. If you have seen it already, my apology. http://www.towleroad.com/2010/07/an-interview-with-bel-amis-george-duroy.html George Duroy (Bel Ami) makes the point that while most of his performers are straight-identified, one can always hope: On the other hand, I can't imagine that a really STRAIGHT man would be able to perform the way our models perform, no matter what they think they are. I, for one, certainly wouldn't be able to be "straight for pay". We live in a world where traditional labels don't apply anymore, partly as a result of gay emancipation. Being gay is not taboo anymore, and I'd say at least thirty percent of city boys in the Central European region happily experiment with their sexuality. Many enjoy it, but they wouldn't think of themselves as being gay. They simply mingle freely, going with their girlfriends to gay bars and fondling other boys in front of girls. And now tell me—what is their orientation? Sometimes I joke, saying that very few gay men are so enthusiastic during sex with other boys as these "straight" boys. I suspect that gay men lost their monopoly on gay sex as a part of their social acceptance. Or that experimenting with all-male sex is simply "in". So, if you are imagining a Bel Ami model stuffing your stocking this Christmas, it isn't outside the realm of the completely possible. But for me, the interview is an interesting look into a world I only see from the outside.

You haven't seen the windows after I wash them!

The website boyculture.com has selected history's 50 hottest actors. I can't put them all here, so go their site, enjoy, and come back here to tell us which one you like the best. I did try to post one of them, a JPEG image, but this site says it doesn't allow those. I never can figure out which pix I can post and which I cannot. But, I would have posted the Tony Danza shot. (This came from another website.) http://www.boycultur...ors-a-list.html

The service industry is not. I tried to call the NY Times customer service. I was told that my wait period would be 3 minutes. After 13 minutes they disconnected me. Then I called Express Scripts to update my credit card. The machine got all of the information, but could not get the expiration date right. So, I followed the instructions on the bill and went to their website. First I had to register. I did all of that, and the response came back that I could not register. I had to go through United Health's website. So, I logged in there and was met with the response that an error code prevented me from transferring to the prescription site. Then I called AMEX to cancel a credit card. The card offered a companion certificate, but flights are never available, or require you to fly for hours to cities you don't want to visit. I went through their totally annoying phone menu, finally was able to ask for a representative. There I was told that my wait period would be 4 minutes, but they disconnected me after 2. I kid you not. All of this happened today. At this point, I am just exhausted!

Well, they are done. It took them 100 minutes, times two guys, equal 200 minutes. Roughly sixty dollars an hour. Not bad for manual labor. And yes, I felt the need to tip. 15% seemed adequate give the high cost of the labor. If they were illegal aliens, I have no idea and did not care. My gardener is Mexican as are the annual house cleaners. (The rest of the year we do it ourselves.) The house cleaners are cheaper as they charge roughly $20 per hour each. I will ask them if they do windows!

My window cleaners arrived. Last time I had them done , it was two gay guys. They quoted me $90 which I raised to $100 since I thought that they under-priced. I added a $20 tip at the end. This time I chose a professional window cleaning company. The two gay guys are out of the business. I got a quote of $180, obviously higher, but the neighbors windows sparkle. She had a nice plump happy girl do hers. So I get two young guys, and they are friendly enough, but give the impression that this may be a career opportunity for them. My intuition tells me that a tip will be expected despite the higher cost. I guess this is just life today. The other day the phone guy at Costco spent some time fixing my new phone up even though it was a replacement phone. I broke the one he sold me. I had no trouble giving him a $20 bill for his help, so why does it annoy me to have to tip the window cleaners? (I know, I know- I don't have to.) I always thought that when it was a fixed price, that that was it. But life works that way. These guys probably see only a portion of that $180, so in essence they are working as cheaply as the two gay guys did. No, neither is cute, so I don't have that excuse. But first, let's see if the windows sparkle...

The only thing that interests me about this is the thought of William shooting the baby-making sperm. The royal sperm, as it were.

I enjoyed the talents of the lead boy in the opening number, but I just don't enjoy drag shows, so the rest of it was a bit of fast-forwarding for me. But obviously everyone worked hard to get ready for the show.

My carrier is Verizon.

Actually, my plan is $7 a month and $99 charge on a claim. It is also with Asurion.

So who is preparing the lawsuit- you or a lawyer?

I didn't know that you were out of the USA. Where are you these days?

hito now speaks in the royal "we." Some lawyers!

Well, I won't thank you then. On Wednesday I dropped my Android onto a stone floor and the screen shattered. Because I had bought the insurance, I filed a claim on Thursday. On Friday a new phone arrived at my house. I was pretty impressed with the service! (lookin, thank you for reading this post.)
