Lucky

Last year I wrote about the police raid on the gay Sunnee plaza bars. Yesterday I saw a report at gaythailand.com that the police raided again this year, right after I left. No violations were found, but rumor is that the bars were forewarned by the locals who get the bribes. The underworld there must be fascinating. Sunnee Plaza has a large Arab influence now, which may make for interesting times as they work to eliminate gays from the neighborhood...if they do, of course. Russians are also big in Pattaya, and I fell in love a couple of times with Russian guys I saw. They do not age well, however, as not a single older Russian man I saw was attractive, not a one.

I don't get why it is a hair video. EXPAT?

"Lucky must believe that he is the Christ and the salvation of MER, which all others must follow only to be a part of because of his blessing of presence." "Lucky believes he is here for because of his obvious belief in his own personal greatness and importance." So, in the first quote, you are unsure. You say I "must" believe this. But, in the second quote all doubt escapes you and I do "believe" that is the reason that I am here. But it could turn out that neither is true. I am not even religious, so the Christ stuff doesn't work. And well, yes, it is clear that I have MER in the palm of my hand and everyone following my every wish. When I want more posting, I click my fingers, and voila, you come along. Now how did I go wrong there? Well, you thought crystal was your salvation but it wasn't. So you know that mistakes are made by all. When you are ready to accept responsibility for your own mistakes and not blame the dealer, you will be able to move on with your life. Until then, you remain an angry and bitter person. Angry and bitter persons lack humor, and you need humor to understand why I posted the pix that I did. Now I must move on to my next project:

Yes, we wouldn't want to mince words here. But I have to say that I can't disagree.

Those are pretty damn gay undies. At least we know what that butt looks like! Or should I split this into two posts?

Arnie Hammer, who played deputy FBI Director Clyde Tolson in the recent biopic on J. Edgar Hoover, was arrested for marijuana possession...on November 30th, when the film was in theaters. Yet the deputy director's clout kept the arrest secret until now. A drug-sniffing dog nabbed his vehicle as it crossed into the US from Mexico, where god knows what the hot film star was up to. Reports that he kept mentioning "yoor seester" as he crossed were apparently untrue. (OK, I made that part up!) http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/armie-hammer-arrested-marijuana-possession-border-patrol-checkpoint-texas-article-1.1011845

I like a nice stiff one as much as anyone, but size isn't as important as face. So a beautiful face contest would really appeal to me. Lacking that, I'll take the big dick contest!

No problem! You are now at 85. You should easily make 300.

SHOPPING I mentioned all of the time I spent shopping, but it was more window shopping than anything else. I bought a lot of t-shirts, a DVD of Breaking Bad, Season 4 for 7 dollars, and a DVD of The Help for $3. Yes, I have looked at them since I got home and they are not blank. Various chocolates, of course. But I do worry about Customs on the pirated purses and watches. They seem not to mind, though, if you keep a limit on what you buy. Of the t-shirts, I bought an Ed Hardy for $7. They are $155 in the store. That's a joke, of course, as I would never pay that much for a t-shirt. When the same shirt can be sold for $7, the people paying $155 should have their head examined. The night markets are full of designer purses and watches, and there is always the Rolex that looks real for about $30. They even have a weight in it to give it heft, and a genuine looking certificate of authenticity. I bought one back in the 90's for $25, and it did last a year. There is also Thai art, sculpture, and jewelery. Once in the Chiang Mai night market I bought two lions made of wood that looked quite old. So when I got to the checkout I was surprised to pay only $6 each. Later, I learned that Thai markets specialize in phony antiques. I was a novice back then. But you have to lug the stuff home, and it doesn't always look so great in your living room as it did in Thailand. So, considering that, and considering the lugging home, and considering customs, I buy very little these days. So many of the Thai Tchotchkes I bought years ago still remain around the house, and I don't regret buying them. I just don't need any more.

it's enough to make me cry! I am so jealous of Ellen!

"Lucky is endearing in a prickly sort of way.' You don't have to live with him!

Yes, which makes your comment in the other thread insulting. People have every right to make their feelings about the contest known. It attracted only ten entrants. Only five of those are following through. One of those five is no longer posting. So, only 4 are following through. Two of those 4, you and lurkerspeaks, seem disappointed in your tallies. So that leaves two contestants trying, one of whom is me. I think that gives me the right to speak my feelings. For a contest that was supposed to get more posting, some are actually posting less. Only EXPAT has increased his posting due to the contest. So why would we not want to point that out? Should we maintain the charade that the contest is a big success?

Oliver arrives next week! My scale says I am down 23 pounds, but that's the new scale, which may be giving me a 4 pound grace. So, it's either 19 or 23, but not 25. If 23, I can drop 2 by February 1st.

Here are the tallies to date for those who entered the MER Contest: EXPAT 634 Lucky 280 Lurkerspeaks 91 FourAces 79 BiBBoy 77 JKane 73 Five contestants are under 50 300 posts are required to get in the raffle.

First of all, Mr. Yankee said that bitching was a sign of life, and that that was good. So, I bitched. A trial lawyer is always taking a witness' words and using them in the most detrimental way. So, I dissented by taking Ty's words and using them in a trial lawyer fashion. He didn't like that, proving my point that "any sign of life is good" was not quite what he meant. Most witnesses don't like it when they speak carelessly and have their words turned against them. Of course, he is not a witness, but it seemed to me to be a pretty direct way of showing that "any" sign of life was not good. Not sure how Mitt Romney figures in this, but he doesn't like having his words from earlier campaigns used against him either. As for the knees, mine are not great either. After an 11 hour flight to Tokyo, I got down on the floor at Narita to get into my carry-on. Getting back up was a bitch as my knees had stiffened up on the flight. I was embarrassed, yet grateful, when a woman in Muslim garb came to me and extended a helping hand. There. I got the gripe, the Mitt, and a bit of travelogue into one post. (And now for Vietnam too!) As for Vietnam, I have been there, and did not see anyone who looked like those movie stars I posted in the picture gallery.

Costa Rica is supposed to be a wonderful place to visit, not that far away, and relatively cheap. Plus I hear that they have rentboys available.

There will be no war. I am a pacifist. BUT, look how many posts the Pub got since this morning. Even Lookin came out to play. I didn't succeed with my post though... (hehehe...Fortunately, a few are interested enough to bitch -- any sign of life is good. )

The stated goal of the website is now "any sign of life is good." That will certainly encourage more posting. I don't quibble with EXPAT's strategy for winning the contest, I quibble with whether the contest has proven good for the website and enhances my reason for being here. It isn't, and it doesn't. Those who have posted less since the contest began are given no reason to reconsider. Other websites already do Hollywood gossip, and do it well. But if that's what you want to encourage, well, you da boss.

Ah, well. When someone sees his post drop to the second page rapidly due to the influx of new posts by one person, that does not encourage that person to keep posting. That's how I see the contest rules as counter productive. Nonetheless, the powers that be have ruled, and the chips will fall as they may. We will no doubt be aware of any nominees to virtually any award show though. If that's what you come here for...

So many streetside eateries in Thailand were unappealing to me. But, they are so popular with the locals, who I think know best.

Thus semen is the essential for this diet. Lots of seeds plus fluids keep you healthy.

Who knew? Oh, probably a few billion people in those far away lands called Asia.
