  1. I have been contemplating a trip to New york, so looked up hotels on the bedbug registry. Even the good ones have them, and not all hotels are very nice when you complain of them: http://www.bedbugregistry.com/search/hotel/l:New-York,-NY/
  2. The NY Times takes a look at fashion with the opinion that older men are now more in favor with advertisers" http://www.nytimes.com/2010/10/17/fashion/17MANLY.html?src=dayp A sample: On catwalks and in advertising campaigns the prevalent male image has long been that of skinny skate-rat, a juvenile with pipe-cleaner proportions. Designers as unalike as Raf Simons and Miuccia Prada developed so pronounced an appetite for the jailbait type that at some model castings in Milan and Paris the new faces often showed up chaperoned by Mom...You lose the T-shirt and the skateboard. You buy an interview suit and a package of Gillette Mach 3 blades. You grow up, in other words. Suddenly evidence of a new phase in the cycle of evolving masculine imagery was all over the catwalks in the runway season that recently ended. Just as suddenly it can be seen splashed across the covers of magazines, where the boys of recent memory have been transformed overnight into men
  3. "On the other hand, once a guy gets publicized with glowing reviews, the rich daddies swoop in, encourage him to raise his rates, shower him with money for overnights, weekends, week-long trips overseas, and we office-class schlubs can kiss that guy goodbye - unavailable for the foreseeable future until the gentry get tired of his aging ass." Well, that is a true comment. It's been argued for a long time that tourists should pay the local rates and not inflate the prices for those who live, say, in Rio, and cannot match some of the Americans in the money they shower upon these guys. But, it's true in the US too. Guys with lots of dough showing their love with money and gifts. BUT, if I were rich and enamored of a guy, I probably would do the same thing. Maybe not so much in a foreign country, but here in the US. Is it fair? Well, no one argues anymore that life is fair.
  4. Please, Aces. The image of you cooking naked? Well, I worry that you might burn yourself, so cover up!
  5. We prefer extra virgin olive oil, but were stunned to learn from Consumer Reports in their testing that many, if not most, products claiming this are in fact mixed with cheaper oils. Costco's Kirkland product was not one of them, so be sure to buy it there. I have found their products to be of good quality, especially their meats. But you might need a large freezer since if you are buying for one they don't accommodate that well. One thing not to overlook in the diet is fish oil. It truly does reduce lipid levels dramatically, and nothing can be easier than popping some fish oil pills. The cheaper the pill though, the more likely it will burp on you, so spend some dough and get quality pills. Sadly, Costco's fish often have warning labels not to eat too much, due to mercury poisoning of the environment under Reagan and Bush.
  6. I don't think a politician has to respond to every crazy thing said about him. But to answer the question of the thread, Bush did a better job of fooling the people than Obama is doing. I am going to be a fierce advocate of Obama's re-election. That's to thank him for living up to his promise to be a fierce advocate of gay rights.
  7. That one was all in the timing. it would have not been vetoed but for the disclosure of the mess with paperwork. The outcry over that would have been strong. Jon Stewart last week had a piece on the National Mortgage Association. They bought a $79 million building, with only 4 million down. About the same time that their president was on national TV talking about people's moral obligation not to walk away from their mortgage when underwater, they did just that, stiffing their lenders for $74 million . The hypocrisy is awesome.
  8. The posting community here at male escort review is rather small. We know each other pretty well by now, so when someone new comes along, it's a welcome thing. New blood so to speak if you are into that vampire stuff. But, we also have many "guests" who view the forums, but stay silent. Well, this is an invitation. Please sign up, and start participating. Just as you might like to see what people are saying, we like to know what you are thinking. And, if you add your thoughts, you just might encourage another lurker to sign up too. Isn't that a win for all?
  9. The headline here refers to the plural of clients, yet the meat of the post is against one individual. Why not have a heart to heart with him about your gripe? I have never experienced what you are talking about at all. But if someone proves to be an untrustworthy source of information, go elsewhere. It's as simple as that.

    Last night's Yankee comeback, or Texas meltdown, depending on your point of view, was exciting. It's what keeps me watching these games all these years. I am as aware of the Yankee's weaknesses as anyone, having watched the majority of their games this year. They will beat Texas in this playoff. Since I am more of a San Francisco loyalist than a Philadelphia one, I also root for the Giants to make the World Series. I very much would like to comfort Buster Posey after the Giants lose!
  11. Surely another thread about a book would sink quickly, so I will use this one twice. Phillip Roth has a new novel, NEMESIS, about a polio epidemic in 1944. The war is going on when suddenly young people throughout Newark are hit by polio, and the Jewish neighborhood is hit hardest. It reads nothing like you would expect having lived through the AIDS epidemic. It educates, infuriates, and occasionally entertains, but polio was not AIDS and the things that happen, and the fact that they mostly happen to young children, make for a different story. Roth's main character is very likable, at least until he isn't, but by then you will find yourself pretty infuriated with the real Nemesis of the book, God. Like Freedom, this book contains some scathing observations on life, love, and religion, all of which I heartily enjoyed.
  12. I don't think so. Porn is available at Gaymart, and Q Trading, which also has toys. I think the Cathedral City location has the benefit of near confidentiality as your neighbors are unlikely to be in that area.
  13. Only if you are lucky. Of course, everyone by now has learned the name of the song. When I heard it live watching the show, it didn't register with me at all. I was probably concentrated on the blond guy.
  14. Geez, I am exhausted! All that saving money is hard work! Oz, have a great time in Brazil, BUT, more importantly, tell us all about it!!!!
  15. Her name does not come up even once in the book! I'd be glad to know if you liked the book as much as I did.
  16. Yes, sorry about that!
  17. Well, she was supposed to use his first book 9 years ago and then dumped it, so it was something when she picked this one. I wouldn't have picked it because of her either. It got such good reviews, so I decided to read it, and have now finished it. It's a masterpiece, just a brilliant look at society today and the perils facing the human race, all told in a story about one extended family over the years.
  18. Jonathan Franzen didn't even get nominated for his novel Freedom by the National Book Award Committee. He won the award 9 years ago or his novel The Corrections, and the latest is getting great reviews and was picked by Oprah Winfrey for her viewers to all read. I only noticed this because I am at the moment just about finishing up Freedom and like it a lot. It has scathing commentary on today's society and politics, so if you like fiction, then this book might be for you, despite the stupid award committee! http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/10/13/jonathan-franzen-snubbed-national-book-award_n_761159.html

    I did enjoy the show that thankfully the bf DVR'd. The Denzel Washington guy was also great.
  20. And we can't have that here! Him, yes.
  21. Okay, so last night on Glee they sang duets. Guess the name of the song that the cute blond guy sang without checking the link or Googling it to win a prize! Can't guess? Okay, then you can read this: http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1649862/20101013/mraz_jason.jhtml
  22. Oh, come on. This is an adult site!
  23. Good point. I hadn't thought about that.

  25. Yes, it is off topic. But, since it came up, if you have seen the pix, you'd still prefer to blow the hockey player even if you had yet to see his dick!
