I went to Meio Mundo this past Monday, I was in the city and debating whether or not I even wanted to go. What convined me was that they were going to have some type of Bingo with a grand prize game of 3000Reais. I thought this would bring out lots of boys and clients. Wrong! I got there at about 4:15. A number of boys(10-15) were already there. Maybe 4 or 5 clients. By about 5:30 It seemed to be to not even be as busy as this past Friday when there wasn't even an event going on. I found someone for a great programa who has been around a bit, has a good rep but had never sampled. Named Romario and if I can figure how to get the picture off of my phone, I'd download it. I got a look at MM"s computer screen and I was the 5th client to take a boy upstairs. Funny that the first three were done in between 8-12 minutes. Quick and talented sex workers and/or fast-spurting clients? We took about 40 minutes. Which is more than the 30 minutes permitted at 117 for a room. I had a nice time and wasn't ready to go home so I thought I'd stick around for the bingo. They started handing out the cards at about 7:30. More clients and ditto boys showed up. But not a huge number of either. Much less than what is normal for a Monday night when 117 is not open. And it was a regular working day in the city which usually is a driver for more clients at this downtown sauna. Had a second session with a cute and young twinkish guy from Goianias who has travelled through Spain, France and Italy, Spoke Portuguese, French, Spanish and English. Andre. Nice, Not phenomenal. We had to wait about 10 minutes for a room, It is so hot here right now that the air-conditioning is a necessity for my health. After the programa, I took another walk around. Video room upstairs was empty, maybe two guys? A few guys hanging out on the stairs attempting to draw some attention. In the bar waiting for the bingo were about the same number of clients and boys (no more than 30 total) No wait for the upstairs basic cabines. Downstairs There was a wait for rooms and the normal traffic jam where the boy's lockers, showers and saunas intersect with the entry hall and the doorway to the TV room and client's lockers. Last Friday the overflow locker area had many more clients than on Monday. Not sure where the problem is in all of this. So I though I'd give 117 a try as I had some shopping to do downtown later in the afternoon. I got there right about 5:20PM. They had a Mr. Bum-Bum contest last night that began about 9PM or so. That should have been a good sign. However, Not so. The place was kind of empty, especially for a Tuesday. Most of the same guys. Nothing really special. 4 or 5 guys(including TomCal's Jefferson and Andre and his friend Goianias) from the previous night at Meio Mundo were there. Just not a ton of either clients or boys. Certainly not a normal Tuesday night. There was an American from Miami who visits here a lot and owns a condo in Copa. We were chatting and he kept on remarking on how ugly and old alot of the guys were or that they were straight trade who couldn't keep a hard-on if their life depended on it. And it was basically true for the majority of the garotos. I had quite the drama first the first time since I first visited in 2003. And I might not have travelled back and forth an incredible number of times. but I do live here and when not with a boyfriend, patronize the 2 saunas. There was a guy I found moderately attractive, Named Thiago. My 4th Thiago in the last month. Snakebit name for me. Including my ex for more or less 18 months. The guy from Miami found him old and ugly, He wasn't the youngest. That's is true. He was night talking to in the bar for maybe 5-10 minutes. So that was something. Then I asked him if he liked to kiss. We French-kissed for maybe a minute. But a problem. His dick wouldn't get hard. He "said" it would. I wasn't to worried.If he kissed and sucked and was nice in the sack, I could forgive a bit or a lot of limpness. So he asked if I wanted to go get a room. I said sure. Then I asked what he charged as it had been a few months since I was last at 117. Before I only paid 100-120Reais for a programma. He said he got 150. My mouth dropped open as he wasn't beautiful, largely hung soft or young. OR EVEN ERECT. When I hesitated and said that I thought that was high, he responded that the current rate at 117 is now 200Reais. Now I speak Portuguese fluently, And I could even tell that he didn't have a carioca accent and had asked which neighborhood he was from in the city. So he was fibbing form the get-go. When I declined the chance to go up with him, he then said that he wanted 50Reais for his time and having to kiss me for 1 minute, at the most. I just ignored him and walked to the outside bar to see if anyone interesting was out there. At this point he followed me outside an told me that he was going to go to the manager and get his 50Reais from me, one way or the other. So I went with him to the front counter where he talked to the manager and then went away. Then I went to the manager for an explanation in Portuguese. He said to me not to monopolize the boy's time. I said I know that. I as only with him a maximum 10 minutes in the bar chatting. I know better than that. And one minute at the most of kissing doesn't approximate a programma. He nodded his assent. This was the first time any boy had tried to scam me in this manner. F.Y.I. After this little bit of drama, I talked to a Brasilian friend who is a professional tour guide taking groups to Europe throughout the year. He happened to be there with a couple of tourists. So I asked him what the the current rate was at 117, He told me that the normal Brasilian pays 100. And only 50 at Meio Mundo. Last Friday a different Brasilian told me that he never pays more than 60 at Meio Mundo. So there is a base pay rate for everybody's edification. I stuck around until about 7:15PM to see if things would pick up for the Mr. Bum-Bum contest. No one really new came in that was interesting. The normal traffic jam on the stairs, the entry foyer or at the base of the stairs on the lower level. Even the shower room and saunas were empty. All a bit strange. My only thoughts are that many clients are doing the same as TomCal and arranging dates though Facebook. Ditto for the American from Miami. I have been with him in the past and he now always gets a least one phone number and a Facebook ID. The New Normal.

The re-launch of Fashion Police premiered last night with a recap of the Golden Globes fashion hits and misses. The show was dedicated to Joan Rivers, but had a new look and a partially new cast. Kathy Griffin replaces Joan, and Brad Gorestky replaces Georgie.Boy... Kathy seemed a bit stiff and shell shocked.... She did Kathy but seemed to be holding back, or perhaps just testing the waters. I am sure she will grow into the position, and once she loosens up, I am sure things will be just fine.... The good is that starting next Monday, it is returning to its WEEKLY format. The original buzz was that it was only going to do Specials, following televised awards shows, but it seems that plan luckily fell by the wayside. I NEED my weekly dose of Fashion Police....... R.I.P. Joan !

And can we talk about the set, chairs from Rent-A-Center and diminished florals?

Great report. Thank you. I wish I was there!

Junior would never go and say that he wants to fuck. He is very shy, and doesn' want to talk to much about sex. He get's steany after the closed doors. We went to a speedboat trip throgh the beautiful beaches of ilha grande. Ilha grande is ecological resort with green clean warm waters. I will post some pictures below and i hope they will not all be turned wrong again. I would appreciate some iphone users help on that issue. There were 6 speedboats with 15 people each traveling together. We have spotted some well developed brazilian couples in late twenties or early thirties. I am sure we would have a nice group sex today if junior would be more practical. But tomorrow is another day.

I'm doing as much reading on the net as possible as well as in good guide books. My best website has been http://www.cubaabsolutely.com. It's a monthly mag on the next and is all about Cuba; there's even some salient information related to the GLBT communities as well. ...plan to take in what's presented. Also, for private gay-friendly rooms and apartments, I recommend http://www.cubafriendly.webcindario.com. ...got this contact from a guy at the other site, wrote to his contact and plan to meet him when I'm in Habana during next month and the following.

So the fart flatulence came out of her mouth or her ass? Now let's play that one more time, just for shits and giggles.

Driver, Romario was even better than his reputation, I just happen to get into guys who are a little taller, a little lighter, a little younger and a little hairier. But he was really talented. He was phenomenal. Just a little bit long in the tooth. Really, really handsome when seen in daylight on the street. Definitely not twinkish. But one hot body that is not too muscular, which I think is more the norm for someone his age.

This discussion has taken 2 pages to go from Jimboivyo/BN to turds, ie nowhere!

That is NOT a healthy turd. According to Dr Oz, healthy turds are boomerang shaped. Your turd is NOT My turd !

My biggest problem was the lack of jokes that Joan told in the past. I missed that alot. Post-Joan, Kelly, Giuliana and Brad really stepped it up with more biting opinions, but there weren't the three or four bitchy jokes that Joan used to spout. I'd love to know how much the writing budget was reduced.

God bless her, that's a hard act to follow.

High proportions of fat breed floaters likewise. This turd is your turd, This turd is my turd...

I may lack AdamSmith's expertise on the subject, but I'm tolerably sure that turds float for reasons that have nothing what-so-ever to do with being hollow. Probably it has to do with methane &/or ingested air mixed homogeneously with the solid matter (but that's purely speculation on my part).

Just like a hollow turd, you flush it and it floats back up to the top. I find it so Fucking funny that these guys put so much effort into staying on a site that doesnt want want them !

I am curious, if anyone knows, there are a lot of gay Brazil bareback porn movies. In just about all of them, the guys pull out and jack off on their guy. In many other bareback gay films, they shoot outside and then shove their dick back in for effect. I never seen this in the Brazil movies. Can someone tell why? I am only curious as I wondered if they think the risk of HIV is lower this way or if there was another reason behind this.

Posse, your pic won't download. Can you re-post? inquiring minds want to know, well, MsAnn wants to know.

I think if I were RA I would be better able to follow my own chain of thought. Or so I think. I'm pretty sure you were very near the bottom of that bottle of scotch when you told me that.
