Lucky

I just can't win with Lars. I think he is upset that I didn't compliment Adam too. He's rather protective that way. But don't get me wrong, I could find some compliment for Adam if he wants.

When it comes to reverence, I can't hold a handle to you. Other than your name calling!

What? I didn't apologize to you in a pm! You are getting delusional now. Did my compliments go to your head? I simply said I had to go and would check back tomorrow. Then I found an opportunity to come back only to find this insult. Well, I did invite you to have at me, but this is beyond the pale! Surrender your hate, dude!

I couldn't agree more. You know, I saw that Adam and Lars were having a bro fest here and I was hesitant to interrupt. But I could not pass without complimenting Lars on his observations. Would that I could think of such stuff. So I stepped in. My regret is that I could not say some nice things about Adam, and that's not because he didn't post some good stuff, it's just that I was so focused on Lars. Would that more people were commenting. Anyway, I leave the thread back to you two. Carry on!

But you did, hon.

Larsstrup, honey, you are a hoot! I love it when you do the self-righteous stick. Why not use my whole premise, which was-"in my mind" the guy's apparent need for speed indicated he needed more than his good looks. It wasn't meant to be a profound statement like the kind you make..."I never understood other people's grief until that plane crashed"...(I was near tears when I read that!) I simply wondered at the irony of a guy who might otherwise be successful taking a speed ride in Times Square, hitting a cop, and probably going to prison. We all make choices in life. Good looking guys make mistakes. Would that it was otherwise. For all we prize good looks, they don't carry one so far as we might wish. (I know, not profound, but hey. We can't all be)

Good advice, Larstrup!

The hits keep coming! Since I can't come up with stuff like that, I will find a quote from someone who can!

Profound! Way too good for this website. I could never be so original. So I borrow....

This movie was a thrill to watch. As a former newspaper carrier, I loved getting those bundles of papers which made my hands so inky yet smelled so good. Watching them come off the presses here after the brilliant battle at the Post over printing the Pentagon Papers was a joy. The acting is fantastic. You Better Call Saul! Bob Odenkirk has a big role and he delivers! So do the others, especially Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks. I wondered who the cute actor was playing Katherine Graham's son, and found out later it is Stark Sands, of Kinky Boots fame. (I've seen his bare butt, live!)* The movie is especially good at a time when the press is not honored, when the Supreme Court would not likely support the printing of leaked government documents. I was proud to remember the role of the press back then. I do recommend this movie! *Sorry, Larstrup,for making a reference to a cute actor's nudity here on the Boytoy website! I should only focus on his acting skills, but somehow cute guys can be a distraction.

Larstrup, I always appreciate your observations. God forbid that anyone would come to a website named Boytoy and express an interest in the life of a good-looking guy.

Jimmy Kimmel showed the Donald Trump porn video, and it is hilarious:

In my mind, 20-year old Arthy Santos should be happy with his life. He's young, cute, and sexy. But no, he has a need for speed or so it would seem when he tried to replicate The Fast and the Furious in Times Square. Unfortunately, the Mercedes Benz he was allegedly driving hit a police officer- on camera! He also has drug charges from a previous incident. So, sexy Arthy might need some skills in prison instead of satisfying his girl/boy friend or making money satisfying older gentlemen. Arthy is on the left: There are better pix of Arthy in this article in the Daily News: http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/nyc-crime/driver-reenacted-fast-furious-scene-dragged-article-1.3765669

Is it the case that non-Brasilians must be 65, but Brasilians only 60 to get the free Metro rides? Here are the rules from the Metro's English language site. One obtains a Free Pass Card, but I have never gotten the card, I just show the ID, and it always works. How to register To get the free pass card, all applicants must attend the Free Pass Counter at the Central Station, during business days, from Monday to Friday 8 am to 6 pm. Senior citizens (65 years of age or older) They must submit: Original ID card Recent proof of residence (from one of the last three months)

Would those cities* have so many gay saunas that a recommendation is needed? If there is more than one, why not try the other (s) in order to decide for yourselves? *Brasilia, Manaus, and Fortaleza. My quick Google search showed that Manaus has two gay saunas, and the other cities have three each. However, one sauna in each of the latter two cities is not rated highly.

Thanks for the reports. With all of the criticism directed at other reports, I am glad that you resisted that threat to give us the good, bad, and the ugly!

Gotti: : The NYT article doesn't report any rape and the touching, according with the paper, stopped when the models objected. " Did the models not object because of the power dynamic? They could envision their careers going down if they didn't go down. Best to suck it up rather than return to McDonald's.

Crystal meth addicts would go crazy with this as they are mostly bottoms. Their parties find that hard cocks fail the more drug they ingest. So I hear!

Picture it naked. A Forbes magazine wouldn't make much of an impact!

My guess is that driving through Vancouver would create that impression. It has a Hong Kong feel to it. But the wealthy in Hong Kong were the ones who could afford to leave, not the middle class or the poor. With Beijing pushing to make Mandarin commonplace, those who left would find their Cantonese less usable. (Yes, of course many speak both Mandarin and Cantonese, but not as many as you might think!)

Could they have really done anything else?

LOL! Of course they had to return Hong Kong to China. It was a lease! But I made the remark "which the British cowardly ceded to Beijing in 1997." because I think Hong Kong was much better before they did. Joshua Wong and friends excepted. The Brits made a bad deal though with the phony two countries deal. No one expected China to abide by that for 50 years, and they haven't.

No, not our poster PopeFrancis! The real pope! He's down in Chile crying with the victims of predator priests. (Don't get excited bibttmboy.) Then, before he leaves, he undoes all the good he has done by saying that people criticising a bishop for shielding one of the worst predators are being libelous! "Show me proof," he said. People were aghast! The bishop's role had been widely accepted, and now the Pope was undoing it all. In the process, Chileans who looked to him with hope were saying that the pope is a dope! http://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/pope-shocks-chile-accusing-sex-abuse-victims-slander-article-1.3765039

Previews begin on January 23d for Jerry Springer: The Opera, one of the best hows I have ever seen. I saw it in London at the National Theater, where it was produced with a full orchestra and choir. It's a comical look at the Springer TV show that ends with Jesus and Satan going at it on the show. Irreverent and very funny, conservative Christians, and only a small segment at that, were able to keep it from Broadway stages. Today's NY Times has an article about the show coming to the Signature Theater, which means a smaller production, but it should still have all of the comedic content: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/17/theater/jerry-springer-the-opera-new-group-john-rando-terrence-mann.html?hpw&rref=theater&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&module=well-region&region=bottom-well&WT.nav=bottom-well

Good for you! I didn't realize that Portland compared so favorably to San Diego on housing costs. I hope that they have an active theater scene.
