I just really don't get the idea of stopping support for a CEO who gave 1k to anti-gay marriage measure. He it been another number, my feelings may be different. He has said he would uphold the direction for Mozilla being inclusive. If this is OK to do, then we really should not support any person's company who gave money to any republican campaign for the last 10 years as they have vehemently came out against us. But, to be fair and honest, I did stop going to one resort when I found out the owner was funding Republican candidates with money from the company. I guess it is where each person feels comfortable. I never spend money on Mozilla and I guess I don't think I have a say in their company. I don't spend money in Wal-Mart either and don't think I have a say. But, if Amazon starts to pull shit like this, I might have to rethink my position as I get a few hundred packages a year from them. I remember years ago there was a guy who owns a big gay website for men hunting for other men. And, he gave to very conservative republicans. He kept moving on and his company is just as popular today was it was then.

Does barebacking interfere with your marriage?

Do you shop at Wal Mart?

His firing was absurd. He gave 1k to a cause. I doubt that was a huge activist stance on his part. I hope that I am not held to account for the 1k I spent in Rio's 117 years after I have been there. I learned that Meio Mundo was better but I was late to the game. Luckily for me, the boys did not boycott me. They may have boycocked me but that is what I was looking for. As for browsers. I love Firefox and Safari. I do use Chrome but it gives odd renderings on some sites.

Is this the same as bukkake? I hear that is something on the face.

I thought it was cropped perfectly. What is the issue again?

I am not a sports guy, so sports is hard for me to enjoy. But, I have been watching this stud from U. Connecticut. IMHO, he is perfection.

Read my last report in Rio as Ihpguy took me to a park where hustlers frequent the benches. There are several places in the area but without some Portuguese, you may have a hard time.

I have stayed in Sao Paulo at least 10 days every year for many years. I love the city. You can search some of the archives here to find the trip reports. The Renaissance never had any issue with guests. The Intercontinental Hotel never had issues with guests. The Hilton never had issues with guest. On my last stay, I was at the Holiday Inn Express which is not near the saunas but a bit more residential area. The price is great and they did not mind guests. I think you will find that most hotels in the area are OK with guests who look like guests. If the look like street hookers, you may have a problem everywhere.

I don't believe this in the least. The more in the group that is spending money the more they want to go with people in the group to have a quick in with another customer. IMHO I have always found the opposite. But, I am not the type that hoards boys. I like them to make money so I always introduce them to friends I am traveling with.

TY, thank you for everything! You are incredible and amazing and have been wonderful to work with. Your wisdom and advice and easy going manner have been invaluable. You are truly an amazing person and will be truly missed! Beyond that, you are a good friend and I still remember those trips to Montreal and one fun gay weekend at Pride in NYC with you, my boyfriend and a few friends from Campus. Plus, I still have a few photos from a Blue and Blue event from years gone by that give me many smiles! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

I knew I'd find an English lad who would translate for me. Thank you so much. Now, try this one: Arse over elbow

Luckily I am not easily offended. I am apparently more grown up than you as you are asking me to my head out of my ass (I think that is what you said). I don't result to that kind of childish talk so there is only one of us that needs to grow up and it ain't me. Owning the Ambiance and having a vested interest in it are two totally different things. Don't play semantics and think everyone buys into it. I don't know who you are and I don't care who you are or if you are a part of the hotel or another hotel or a bar in the area or even if you the owner of another website. I don't know who the original poster is and I don't care who he is either. I have never been able to keep up with all the personalities of the message boards and I never will. It is nothing personal at all. But, I don't remember you as a poster on this site in other threads and when I see you start to attack me for disagreeing with you, I have to wonder why. As for the issue, I honestly did not see an issue with the first post or any other in this thread. You do. We disagree. Does that mean I have my head up my ass? One of the reasons I post so little on the gay Thailand related websites is because of people like you are can't have a rational debate and get offended when someone disagrees with you. Part of life is learning how to have a rational debate without name calling and throwing a tantrum.

me. me. me. If I say gay men are drama queens, will that be libelous? jk

You sound like someone who has a vested interest in this place. Do tell us please, what that interest is? Or, isn't? As far is your statement above, this rumor has been on the site before and your comment most likely won't be deleted or removed. Why? Well, people in Pattaya like to gossip. I know this must be news to you but asking who bought a business with no date or statement of when it was could have been 10 years back. I didn't find it a bad question and thus why I answered and actually said the place was great. I guess good comments about a business (yours or not yours) should be deleted? No, I think often threads take on a life of their own and good things can become of even the ones that start off bad. I am sure the owners of the Ambiance would be happy to know so many on the board like their place and go there for beds and food. Right? Or, I am still missing the point?

I really wanted to come. But, I have flown so much in the past month I just could not do it again. I had 2 trips to NYC and one to Portland, Oregon and the one from Oregon to NYC took me 21 hours because of delays. OUCH However, have a fantastic time!

She is some sick bitch who is going to cause lots of problems. In the end, I think her head will be chopped off by the kid!

Thanks again. Much appreciated.

I thought the original poster was talking about when Jim sold it. I didn't think it was anything recent. And, there is nothing libelous in this thread that I have read. Like others, I don't care who owns a hotel as long as it is good and done right. I have not stayed at any of the gay hotels in this area for 12 years. The only reason is when I tried, the Internet sucked and I could not get any good reception. This most likely has changed over the years and I'm willing to give them another chance but I don't care who owns the place. As for restaurants, I much prefer the one at the Ambiance to the others in the area. I really liked the manager there and the food is excellent. The Cafe Royale has great food as well so both of the food places I like. Perhaps on my next trip I'll give the Internet a try again as I am sure things have changed in 12 years.

Is the Ambiance the one above Copa? Or the one next to BoyzBoyzBoyz?

Thanks guys. You are giving me great info. It is VERY much appreciated. Please keep the comments coming!

I have a good friend from Utah who has been offered a job working with Burapha University. She has been to Thailand and loves the people and the country. She wants to know what this area is like. The neighborhood where she would be is called Sean Suk where the famous bangsean beach is located. Are apartments in the area nice? How long to get to Pattaya? I have been to the university once many years back but I don't remember too much about it, the area or the beaches. Any information is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Just curious is that 75 percent of the same Portuguese BF and 25 percent from the Spanish BF?

For those of you that think parents are not parenting, do you feel this is changed or that they never really had good parents in other generations?
