I used to always stay at the Rose back in the early 2000s, and it was old even then! But it could still be an option for some, as it's close to the action and the pool is great. I wonder if those 3 women are still working there? I believe they were sisters. They were very accomodating regarding my visitors. On the odd occasion the guy did not have ID, they would interrogate him before deciding if I should take him to the room. If I returned to the hotel alone, they would ask : 'you don't have friend tonight?' Lol

I've been a fan since seeing him on that Chinese show back in 2018. His first version of S.O.S. was disastrous, as his french pronunciation was awful. He has now perfected his pronunciation. When he first appeared he was incredibly cute. He then put on a bit of weight, especially around the face, and he became very unattractive. He's now back to being handsome. He does a fantastic interpretation of 'ALL By Myself'.

What about all those countries which do not have a 2nd amendment, yet are living in peace? What about tyrannical Trump who is trying his best to control free speech by using the justice system and trying to have media licences revoked? What about those tourists being stopped at the border, having their social media accounts checked and then denied entry into America if any anti-Trump comments are discovered? There goes my planned trip to Hawaii, Any semblance of free speech died when Trump came to power. He's following in the steps of the dictators he admires so much. You can forget the 2nd amendment! And to say that the death of innocent people, including school children, is the price to pay for the amendment is strange indeed, coming from a so-called Christian. I would have thought 'Thou shalt not kill' would take precedence.

It was not up to Kirk to decide whether or not gun deaths were 'worth it'. That's surely a judgement to be made by the victims and their families.

All the best, Tmax!

No, it's definitely BO - stale sweat. Curry and spices don't bother me. A while back I was in an electronics store in Perth. An Indian shop assistant approached me and I immediately felt like gagging. I quickly told her I was only looking and she went away, but her smell lingered. Not long after I was approached by a rather handsome young indian guy, who smelt even worse! Sadly, I had to also bid him a fond farewell. At one point I wondered if it was me who was stinking up the shop. Thsmkfully, it wasn't. My question is : why didn't the manager tell them to go home, take a shower, put on some deoderant and some clean clothes? Surely smelling clean and fresh is a no-brainer if you are working with customers. I won't be going back.

Why hasn't the media looked into the Putin- Trump relationship to find out what Putin has over him. Is it a compromising honey pot video? Is it some kind of commercial deal, like a Trump tower in Moscow? His stance,such as blaming Zelenski for starting the war, is illogical, even for Trump.

Why don't you rub the balcony with oil or grease to prevent them from getting a grip? Just a thought.

I once took a guy off the street in Silom. I was on my way back to the hotel alone when he came up to me and started chatting. He told me he was clean and that he had a big cock. To prove it, he took me across the road and into a carpark, where he unzipped his fly and pulled out a monster! At that time I was a top only, and unfortunately, so was he. But it didn't matter, as we spent about am hour just 69ing, with me doing my best to get his cock into my mouth. It finished with a mutual wank and he treated me to a massive cumshot where he soaked my pillow and splashed on the headboard. I also had a guy from a bar who I offed on a regular basis. But he returned home and I didn't see him again - until I ran into him in the street near the old Golden Cock. He was no longer working in a bar, as my friend from GC told me he drank too much and caused problems with the management. He was just looking for beer money, and I was more than happy to help him out, especially when he took my hand and put it on his cock, which was already rock hard. I never saw either again.

I can easily tolerate the smell of spicy food and coconut oil - it's the BO I can't stand. If I'm in a confined space like a convenience store, I sometimes want to puke. In prisons in the Philippines and South American countries they hand out deoderants to the prisoners. Even then, according to reporters, the prisoners still stink, as they are unable to shower every day. But at least it's tolerable.

I've seen lots of cute, hot indian guys in Thailand over the years. Id love to hop into bed with them but from my experience, there is a problem - they tend to stink. I don't know what it is with them but I'm guessing they don't often shower or wash their clothes. They certainly don't bother with deoderant, either. They don't seem to have a problem with the smell, something I just can't understand. I was planning a short trip to India in September, as friends who have been there rave about it. But they all complained about the foul-smelling streets and the stinky BO.

Dou itashimashite!

Both systems are still used. The imperial system, called gengou, is used in all official documents. Magazine articles also tend to use it. Sometimes, both are used; e.g. the date at the top of the newspaper. I grew up in the shouwa era of Emperor Hirohito, and we never used the Gregorian system. I remember when Hirohito died. Everyone knew he was on his death bed and calendar makers were desperate for him to die before they printed their new ones, as that would mean they would all have to be recalled and reprinted with the new era name. Unfortunately for him, he died on January 7, 1989. The scene outside the palace was quite ghoulish, as the media were camped out, waiting for him to die. Upon his death, all TV programs were replaced by shows dedicated to his life. Entertainment venues were forced to close. This went on for a couple of weeks, and people were quietly upset. Bars were finally allowed to open, but could not play music or serve alcohol.

PeterRS wrote: "This was the day when the Japanese Emperor spoke to his nation for the first time." Old people in Japan often told me that they hardly understood anything in the emperor's speech, as he spoke in a special language used only in the imperial court. I went through the Japanese education system. In history classes Japan was always represented as a victim, not a perpetrator. The emphasis was on the suffering caused by the nuclear bombing. The first time I knew about the Rape of Nanking was when I saw an exhibition snout it in the Hiroshima Peace Museum years ago. There is a small military museum located within the Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo. It features a steam locomotive which was used in Thailand , but there is no mention of the infamous railway,

This has been my experience for years. Lots of straight guys wanted to keep their gay activities a secret from their friends - although those friends probably knew. It's all about maintaining face.
