Lucky

Wow! Those of us feeling deprived because Bangkok is closed to tourists can take delight in this wonderful report from Totally Oz. Thanks joshhartz123 for resurrecting it! And, of course, thanks to Oz for writing something in 2004 that would be such a satisfying pandemic read!

Would that not be the question? I dunno. You tell me!

Another topic for another thread! As a blogger, you will find the story interesting.

Latbear4blk, don't be too hard on yourself. You made the effort, you engaged the discussion. What I think is different this time is the very thing you brought up early on- white privilege. I think many white people are finally seeing for the first time what a role that privilege plays in keeping things from improving. Just today I got an email challenging me, and others, to determine what practical steps we can take to make sure real change happens now. Partly because of disgust with Trump, people see things in the US as at a critical stage. Act now. Maybe it will be the children like you saw rally today that lead us, but there will be leadership, and, I think, real change.

Absent your acceptance of my truce offer, there is no truce.

Poor RockHard. He couldn't win me over as an ally, and he cannot support his argument that I am unpopular. Let's face it.In over 20 years of posting one is bound to ruffle feathers, and I have. Yet most of those folks continue to either like me or tolerate me. Some don't. There is no continuing animosity among board veterans still posting except for RockHard. He doesn't seem to like anyone whom he cannot dominate. RockHard is a smart guy. He can make some great arguments and I often agree with him. But he loves to insult and loves to tell others what to do. Years ago, he and I were on friendly terms. I visit New York often and offered more than once to get together with him. He hemmed and hawed, and once even said his son didn't think it was a good idea. I suggested maybe I should meet his son to show him how harmless I am. There was no sexual connotation to it. I don't know if he even has a son. I don't even know if he lives in New York. I don't know if he actually has any connection to Hollywood, even on the fringes. He has built a character here without any real proof that he is telling the truth. I do believe that he masturbates a lot on Newtumbl.com, and I believe that he takes vacations to Sardinia or wherever in Italy he says. He has actually posted pix of that. Because I have met almost 100 men who post on the boards, people do know me for better or worse. I started the Palm Springs Weekend and people came. Oliver later helped turn it into an even bigger event. So knowing who I am as Lucky is easy. Like me or not, I am here to entertain myself, not you or RockHard. Finally, in a time of pandemic and systemic oppression of people of color, a time when whites are finally beginning to cope with the idea of white privilege and how it is used to prevent change, it seems odd to have a petty squabble with a poster here. I offer a truce to RockHard, in the spirit of the times and because there are just so many more important things to talk about.

That's why, in reality and where possible, it is best to go to a place where you can meet and interact with the guy first. A sauna or strip club usually did the job.

I went to that website to see this for myself. Wow! It's pretty outrageous to single out the guy leading the argument against your point and tell him to give it a rest. Why? What was "Guy" worried about- that he is losing the argument. Speaking of arguments, there is an old saying in the courtroom. "When the facts are on your side, argue the facts. When the law is on your side, argue the law. When neither is on your side, pound the table." Nowhere is insulting your opponent considered a good argument.

Was there a time when one could call an agency, tell them what kind of guy you liked, and he would appear shortly after at your door? Wow!

Can't imagine why Oz would want the story of his head out the window being relegated to the Sand Box! Think of it- a good fuck and a great view!

You first!

Queen hypocrite would be you BigEgo. You say you don't support discriminating against people because of the color of their skin, but you have no problem being hateful toward a man because of the condition of his skin. Hypocrite! You claim that you have fat friends, but scorn the idea of them as sexual beings. Hypocrite! You pretend to ignore me, but you don't miss a word I write. Hypocrite!

Sexy man with a message! It's great to see athletes across the world supporting BLM. Jadon Sancho

Both Scott and Rick belong in the Escort Hall of Fame. They were both original thinkers and interesting personalities. We did not always agree, but I like them both.

What low level phylum would make an argument that had so many personal attacks? Did it not have enough valid arguments that it had to resort to such name calling> I am ashamed to be on a board with a piece of shit like this. Humongous egos are one thing, but nastiness like this is far worse.

I don't know, Oz, if the guy and I both showered first and then laid on freshly clean sheets, we'd be off to a safe start. Granted, his breathing alone could infect me if he is infected, but what are the odds of that? And think of that warm skin, so smooth, that throbbing dick so in need of attention, and then my lonely asshole...oops, my alarm just went off! These afternoon naps!

Those Republican Senators did more than just make statements. They got involved.

Making false allies would be worse. Roger Goodell has only given us words, not actions. I am sorry to say that I don't agree with your strategic thinking here.

You're so busy allying with Roger Goodell that you just don't have the time. Give it a rest. No one put you in charge.

You wouldn't ally with tassojunior, but now latbear4blk wants to ally with Roger Goodell! Ha!

Minnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler is easily the cutest player in all of baseball. But, he may also be the dumbest! See, he plays for the Minneapolis Twins. Minneapolis is not a very cop friendly city these days, so Max wears a mask supporting the cops. His fans weren't happy. https://www.tmz.com/2020/05/29/max-kepler-mlb-blue-lives-matter-mask-apology-george-floyd-death/

In light of the way that Colin Kaepernick was treated by the NFL- essentially forced out of the league- can one put a shred of confidence in the sincerity of Roger Goodell when he says: “The NFL family is greatly saddened by the tragic events across our country,” Goodell said in the statement. “The protesters’ reactions to these incidents reflect the pain, anger and frustration that so many of us feel. “Our deepest condolences go out to the family of Mr. George Floyd and to those who have lost loved ones, including the families of Ms. Breonna Taylor in Louisville, and Mr. Ahmaud Arbery, the cousin of Tracy Walker of the Detroit Lions. “As current events dramatically underscore, there remains much more to do as a country and as a league. These tragedies inform the NFL’s commitment and our ongoing efforts. There remains an urgent need for action. We recognize the power of our platform in communities and as part of the fabric of American society. We embrace that responsibility and are committed to continuing the important work to address these systemic issues together with our players, clubs and partners.” NYPost.com Reactions so far do not give Goodell any credibility.

So I want to muse about values, but I do need to remind you that there are people who do not have them. Who are they? Well, some are at other sites, posting as normal gay men but they don't believe in wearing masks. Surprised? Don't be. I will keep you informed in my posts here,every time I post, on and on and on. One guy, as a matter of fact, let's call him BandC, he doesn't even open doors for women! I kid you not. Our values include things like that. More tomorrow about BandC and his ilk! (Just kidding, SAS!)

Duh, I think we know that already without you giving voice to them in your posts. Our whole life has been spent dodging them. You are just trying to justify your refusal to move on.
