It seems it's not only @jimmie50 who's gone MIA but I haven't seen @floridarob and @Olddaddy posting for sometime either. @Olddaddy has been especially subdued since his return from Thailand. I hope you guys are okay.

Thanks for checking in, September is the month I travel with my boyfriend, so I’ve been a little MIA myself.

We started in Mexico City, then went to Denver, where I finally had the chance to meet @jimmie50 in person. From there, we traveled to Vancouver whored around a little there, lot's of hot Asians then boarded the first of two cruises (which we're still on) taking us down the California coast and into Mexico.

We’ll be home at the end of the month, and once I recover from the vacation, I’ll catch up on everything that’s been going on here. 😂

I hope @Olddaddy can't get gold poisoning from his goldcfaucets!

There was some weird cult (I know, redundant) whose leader was ingesting silver or gold. She got crazier and sicker and eventually died (unclear if she wasn’t helped by someone who could profit from her death in end).

Thinking of the gay Asian scene in Canadian cities, has anyone read "The Rice Queen Diaries" by David Gawthrop? Impressions?

"There was some weird cult (I know, redundant) whose leader was ingesting silver or gold"

The Republican party?

Sorry, no

Actually, this woman thought she was the reincarnation of Pele, the Hawaiian goddess of the volcano. Didn’t go over very well on Maui and her cult was run off the island by pissed off native Hawaiians.

Well, at least she didn't think she was the Pope, or JC!

You all are derailing my thread: I'm going to huff, puff, eat more junk food, put you on ignore, throw a tantrum, stomp my foot, privately message other members like a snivelling coward to blackball all of you...😂🤣😅

Take your time; nothing much going on here other than a few chronic whingers...just glad to hear that you're safe and enjoying yourself.

You really need some new material, Keith, but I understand it's hard to get new material when Olddaddy isn't posting! 🤷 By the way, I believe pure gold is one of the safest metals to humans. Otherwise they wouldn't use it in teeth.

Yes re safety, but there are one or two articles suggesting gold can be toxic in certain circumstances.

Its certainly a shame that none of Olddaddy 's personalities have been online. At least Riobard has been quiet!

They also use mercury amalgam...

At this point one almost misses PeterRS. Almost.

Yes, I know what you mean!

Is this some new prison penpals reboot I’m not aware of? Do I send care packages, cigarettes, douche kits? Are y’all spread out or centralized? Does Old Daddy run a commissary?

Another forum member I haven't seen in a while is @jamiebee . I believe he lives in the Middle East and hope he's alright.

good thing you are curious / concerned but as member here for several years I observed that for many contributors it's noticeable pattern : they are being active for a while before, during and after their trip and then they go into dormancy until next trip is coming up. Nothing wrong with that as long as they keep returning

@mauRICE Thanks for the concern I appreciate it. 😋

All is well here in Dubai, I'm just preoccupied with office work and drama plus occasional missiles from Iran (Thankfully it has stopped for quite a while now with last Missile alert was August) 🤣🤣

I lurk most of the time - read, react, and comment once in a while. I'm still not used to the new layout of the website.

That's true. Though it's still 7-8month before my next planned trip to BKK so I just pop in and out of the forums 🤣🤣🤣

Ahhhhh ...both you & me !

It's been a while since I visited this site. The topics are somehow more interesting when I am not in Thailand.

Welcome back iendo

One member who comes to mind is @Min I like his reports, but he's dormant for long periods -- between trips, I suppose.

Perhaps he only can come out at night?

Thank you Vinapu.

I just signed a lease in View Talay 2A, so I might be starting mingling in the gay scene more often and spread some rumors here.
