Lucky

Not me. I went last year and was totally out of place. Not high and not young, nor rich enough to buy entrance to their games. Besides that, it took 45 minutes to get through security even though the drugs were everywhere. And, finally, as a circuit event, it wasn't very well done.

So weird that if you have sex with Joey* in one place it is legal, but in another you are a pervert and have to register as a sex offender.** *Joey is a made up name for the purpose of this post. He is 16, except that he is not real. **Thankfully, I like them well into their 20's

Oz, if I can come over to take advantage of the temporary decline of the baht, will you introduce me to all of your Thai friends? That won't esculate the violence, will it?

I will be viewing the penis in question from Row E, but, alas, not until November. I will not exaggerate its size, or minimize its potential.

AH! I wouldn't know that as I don't frequent those bars!

You LIKED that dreary pic?

Nice to see yo back, BiBottomboy. I was worried that you had forsaken us. Indeed the HIV rates are soaring, and I think we can blame barebacking for that as well as poor education in lower economic areas. What do you think?

Are we not gorged to revulsion on these already? It's hard to give an objective answer to that question. Ortony, Clore and Collins discuss in their research "The Cognitive Structure of Emotions" (see p. 162) one example to demonstrate their point: For example, if a child has an unpleasant feeling of revulsion when he sees broccoli on his plate, he is likely to attribute it to his distaste for broccoli. However, if this feeling of revulsion at the site of broccoli arises just after he has gorged himself on a snack of cookies and pickles he may still attribute it to his distaste of broccoli, even though, unknown to him, it is in fact due to the ill effects resulting from his snack." So, my revulsion could be based upon an actual revulsion or the fact that I had earlier read a revulsive item, or for heavens sake, ate a pickle with my cookie. I just don't know. To think this is the sum of pub discussion for the day!

..oh, okay. Gilligan's Island. Such a hot topic these days. Isn't that where Sarah Palin is from?

I am at a loss as to the connection between this picture and this site.

The owner of the Manchester Hyatt in San Diego donated $125,000 to the anti-gay marriage folks to help pass Prop 8. Now the gay community is boycotting the hotel, which is independently owned. Hyatt is in a bind since they can't do anything about it. That would be my guess why you see them trying to appeal to gays a little more. I have stayed at the Manchester Hyatt and it is a lovely hotel. Too bad the owner has wasted his money on a losing proposition.

Is this list pre-Palin?

"I was hard at least and love this show." Oz, aren't you in Thailand? Don't you have better things to do? Why not take some classes or something if you are getting bored?

I think most Republicans are hoping that McCain dies quickly after winning as they really want Palin running the show. He should carry extra protection whenever around her.

What is your Skype name?

I agree with the previous poster.

Given that there already exists a promoter on this site for LA events, I am stunned that he has not mentioned the Sunset Strips event to be held next Sunday, the 14th. It's an AIDS benefit that looks like an LA version of Broadway Bares. "...nearly 100 super-talented, super-sexy, professional dancers who will strut, tease, and bare it (mostly) all." Okay, so I don't recognize many of the names mentioned, but it is written by Bruce Vilanch (with help from his trusty aides, no doubt) and, like Broadway Bares, is standing room only. For $160 you get to stand! But, don't worry OZ, there are a number of VIP packages available. And you can stand in the back of the house for only $40. It's being held on Boulevard 3 in Hollywood, not that I have any idea where that is. I am sure Townsend can find out for us.

Thaksin and his rich cronies got the votes from the poor because they bought them. Democracy comes cheap in Thailand. They then proceeded to plunder the treasury and got kicked out. So they did it again with this other guy as a substitute for Thaksin, who is on the run.

Townsend, sorry to hear that the event couldn't be everything you wanted it to be. You sure did your job promoting it. I too met Lukas at a place in New York five or so years ago. He is a gorgeous man. I also, of course, slept with him and Johann Paulik back in 2000, but that's a different story. I can vouch that they both looked pretty god when they woke up, all things considered.

Well, speak with some authority on this: http://www.nytimes.com/reuters/us/internat...tics-palin.html

BIBboy, you like to state a lot of thing as fact. Please tell me where these media companies have called this "bullshit" or any other word similarly conveying the idea that there is no truth to them. Today's update from the daily kos leaves little doubt for me: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/8/31/14.../319/386/581332

Palin hasn't been pregnant for years. After all, she's 44 now. The Downs Baby she pretended to carry was her daughter's. W thought they were postponing the convention to keep Bush and Cheney away, but now it looks like they are just buying time to figure out what to with her. Can they hide the facts for two more months?

What evidence is there that he is a rentboy?

Geez, I feel as if I am in the presence of Aristotle...the old teaching the young!

One of my favorites in New York came too soon once. I thought the session was going to end early, but he just smiled and said he could easily come again. And he did. Then he went back to the Gaiety and got hard on stage.
