Whereas newcomers to the site need to realize that we can't post all of the basic information every time a newcomer asks, they shouldn't have to put up with juvenile snarkiness that will likely drive them from the site.

I am not sure this thread is dwelling on it. You wouldn't have come here if it was, I assume. You can just look at the pictures and ignore the content if you wish!

Another pretty boy killed is Pedro Ruiz III. His death seems the result of a stupid prank that he and his girl friend wanted to stage for youtube. Ruiz, 22, was the father of one and his girl friend is pregnant with the second child.

And yet another pretty guy murdered. This one is a 20-year old who worked as a male model. https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/3905162/murder-probe-launched-after-man-who-was-knifed-in-the-head-following-service-station-row-dies/

No use to lust after the dead, but such a loss. The pic below is from an article in The Daily Mail, which has many more details, and pics. Lots of guys with their arms around each other... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3943168/Body-missing-26-year-old-man-buried-shallow-grave-Jersey-shore-fears-murdered-swanky-Manhattan-party.html

At first his murder seemed unexplained. Handsome 26-year old Joseph Comunale was beaten and strangled to death. We learn that 26-year old James Rackover is the prime suspect. Then we learn that Rackover has a sugar daddy who gave his name to James and tried to help cover up the murder. Rackover allegedly confessed to the murder. His sugar daddy is the "jeweler to the stars" Jeffrey Rackover., who provides James with his own apartment in the same building. James reportedly blamed "roid-rage" as the cause of the murder. There are two other suspects/witnesses, both macho handsome guys. Yet nowhere in this story is the word "gay" used. I wonder, were they all straight sugarboys? The article below is truncated.

Victim Joseph Comunale, 26, was already beaten unconscious and bleeding profusely when Rackover wrapped the denim around his neck on Nov. 13, according to the shocking new documents made public Wednesday. The scenario was laid out for the first time as lawyers for three people allegedly inside the luxury apartment-turned-murder scene sought separate trials in the heinous murder. The chilling story, offered by an attorney for witness Max Gemma, offers gruesome new details in the savage killing of Comunale inside Rackover's E. 59th St. apartment. Jeweler to stars helped surrogate son Rackover conceal body: suit Rackover, 26, the court papers reveal, flew into a maniacal and murderous rage in the midst of a fistfight between Comunale and co-defendant Larry Dilione, 28. Rackover “punched and kicked in (Comunale) the head and face several times, and smashed the back of his head into the hard wood floor several times,” charged a Manhattan Supreme Court filing by Gemma's attorney Mark Bederow. “Rackover's attack left Comunale bleeding profusely and created a bloody mess in the living room floor,” the court filing continued. “Rackover panicked about returning to prison. He ordered Gemma and Dilione to take off their clothes." When the two stripped down, Rackover straddled Comunale while wrapping Dilione’s jeans tightly around his hands “as if he were preparing to choke Communale,” the papers concluded. DA tosses suspect James Rackover's gripe at murder trial Authorities believe the victim’s cause of death was stabbing rather than strangling. In a creepy final twist, Gemma was told to leave the apartment — and received a look that could kill from Rackover as he exited.

I would never step foot in Indonesia, no matter how wonderful Bali is. The arrest of 140 guys in Jakarta last weekend at a sauna led to them being carried to jail naked, where they were interviewed naked. Pics of them were leaked to the media. Then there was the caning in Aceh. Indonesia even jailed the Christian governor of Jakarta for two years for making a light joke that offended Muslims. The country is increasingly moving to Muslim rule and that means nothing good for gays. I can't understand why we are expected to be supportive of taking in Muslim refugees into the US who,once settled here on welfare, will endeavor to undo gay rights. Our very existence threatens them. Their very religion threatens me.

Oz, how will you be able to marry two guys? Taiwan is not so far...:)

Gosh, the pictured guy is so hot. Is that you, Tommy?

Tomcal: "this may be my last trip to Rio until May or June so i am looking to make as memorable as i can. :-) " Tomcal I am so glad to hear you say this, out loud and in a public forum. Many of us have worried about why you insist on holding back when in Brazil and not going for a memorable trip. If having to wait a few months for your next trip makes you go all out on this one, I say :It's about time." You could be having multiple programmas. You could have boys Facebooking you every day...even when you are not in Brazil. I picture the day when you will have multiple boys waiting on you... ...BUT FIRST, learn how to make a trip memorable, one that you would write about here, and even get multiple "likes." All of that, and more, can be yours if you just loosen up a bit, and let the boys come to you. Trust me, they will! And we will all be looking forward to it! It's a slow night.

Good job, OZ.!

A sad Christmas for fans of pop star George Michaels, dead today at the age of 53, From The Guardian: George Michael, the pop superstar, has died peacefully at home, his publicist said. The 53-year-old, who was set to release a documentary in 2017, rose to fame as a member of Wham!, known for their hits Club Tropicana and Last Christmas. Michael - whose real name is Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou - sold more than 100m albums throughout a career spanning almost four decades. In a statement, the star’s publicist said: “It is with great sadness that we can confirm our beloved son, brother and friend George passed away peacefully at home over the Christmas period. “The family would ask that their privacy be respected at this difficult and emotional time. There will be no further comment at this stage.” Thames Valley Police said there were no suspicious circumstances. Thames Valley Police said South Central Ambulance Service attended a property in Goring at 13:42 GMT that day.[3]

Thanks for posting that, Oz. The husband and I both liked it.

bobbalino, you found the research that this site did not provide. Thanks.

There was some talk that a person with HIV who has an undetectable viral load would be less likely to transmit the virus, but who wants to risk their health on talk? Now it looks like it might be proven to be true. So says HIV Plus magazine. But what it is shockingly wrong with their statement is that they provide absolutely no proof of what they say. No study is explained or even mentioned. They make a reference to the Prevention Access Campaign. I guess you are supposed to visit preventionaccess.org/undetectable, so let's do that now... Well, they quote people saying the same thing, but I see no links to any study where one can analyze the data and see if this statement is something you could believe. In the meantime, condoms do this too.

Why watch a Nazi show when you can see the Trump Administration live! And it will last 4 years- no binging! But seriously, Larstrup, I appreciate the heads up and will check it out.

Thank you, LarryOz. Welcome to the forums.

My guess is that if you literally bring a "boy" you will have a problem with the doorman...at the least!

This thread started out so hopefully. But what is the status of it now? Any changes on the horizon? The site does need fresh eyes. I agree with Larstrup's suggestion on the travel guides. Thanks to the guys who are keeping the site going. You know who you are!

You mean that your tongue hanging out doesn't convey all?

Does WeChat do a good job with Thai and Portuguese?

WHAT! MsAnn is also bigvalboy??? Can't be! I liked bigvalboy. He would never be as tacky as Ms Ann!

Most of us!
