Huffington Post has some fascinating pictures of gays who live in the sewers of Jamaica. Well worth a look, imho. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/christo-geoghegan-gully-queen-photos_us_57c09c34e4b085c1ff29586f?section=&

I did have one visit there that was a dud. The simple fact is that if you can go when Tomcal/tomcall is there, it will make a huge difference. He has a magnetism that brings life to the place and makes those guys think foreigners could be fun after all!

I'd say pretty dumb. To behave like that after getting caught once, to bring his kid into it, to humiliate his wife again, to risk damage to the Clinton campaign. Doesn't get much dumber.

Oz can speak for himself, and after all, it is his own website. But my two cents is that we can skip this drama. It contributes nothing to the site. People who have contributed nothing to the site now use it to air their grievances or support someone else's. The people who have contributed to this site get shortchanged if it just becomes an avenue for outsiders to air grievances.

It's too bad that we don't have a large pool of qualified people wanting to be President. We always seem to have to pick the lesser of two evils.

I sure hope that the details of this lawsuit don't spill over into this forum as I simply couldn't care less. If they are going to use the courts to resolve a dispute, we don't need to do it here.

Is Adam Smith becoming forgetful? Last week, he posted a number of twink websites. In the very first one, there were nude pics of JB, showing himself in toto. I don't need more pix of him. He seems to need a career boost, so is going full monty. But what next?

My experience in 3 visits to Porto Alegre is that the sauna guys are hot. Last visit I picked up a fellow who gave me such joy that I paid him double. Besides being gorgeous, muscular, and light-browned, he knew exactly what to do and he did it so well, without watching a clock, that I would really consider him the best sex I have had in Porto Alegre. When we were done, he showered first, came out stroking his dick, letting me know he wasn't tired, and we went at it again. Now tell me that the color of his skin would make a difference? Others have pointed out the nice hotels at cheap rates, which are in a neighborhood of good restaurants. PA also has a hustler bar which tends to be a bit blue collar, but the guys are friendly and fun. There are rooms available in the bar, or you can do take out.

Boy, Oz, you could be their publicist. They came back to Olympic Village laughing and carrying on. They trashed a bathroom at a gas station, pissed on its walls, and tried to avoid culpability. The security guard only withdrew his weapon when they tried to flee.

Another waste of the taxpayer's dollar.

This one is just for Adam Smith: http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/more-sports/french-race-walker-yohann-diniz-pooped-pants-article-1.2758019

There's always poop. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/russia-poop-explosions_us_57b66dcae4b00d9c3a16c481?section=&

Okay, well, gee, if it is vile and disgusting and you would never leave it on the site, why are you going to "reinstate it over the weekend?" Of course, I didn't see the statements, so have no idea what I am talking about. Nothing new there.

These men have shamed tier country by lying about something so sensitive to Brazilians. They should all be jailed.

But, that's changing, which is why I started the thread. Obviously I did a bad job of conveying my point, but scientists are now thinking that adults can get brain damage from the Zika virus. That's a whole new ball game. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/to-your-health/wp/2016/08/18/zika-can-infect-adult-brain-cells-not-just-fetal-cells/?hpid=hp_hp-more-top-stories_zika-1230pm%3Ahomepage%2Fstory

Shocking news on the Zika front: It's more transmissible than previously thought through sex. Condoms can prevent it, so the pressure is on the barebackers. Even with Prep, they could spread this relatively new disease. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/13/nyregion/zika-new-york-sexual-transmission.html?hpw&rref=nyregion&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&module=well-region&region=bottom-well&WT.nav=bottom-well

Firecat, when I first started visiting Thailand, I think I liked the bottoms best, although not necessarily twinks. (Yet all the bar dancers are young.) In Brazil, I learned how glorious those tops guys can be! They also seem a bit older than Thai guys, but age isn't often easy to discern in Thailand. Those lucky guys can be 35 and look 20!

Firecat, we have had the opposite experience. I went to Thailand 14 times, thinking that it just couldn't get better. Then I went to Brazil, and, for me, Brazil guys were the greatest. So now I have been to Brazil 5 times*. That's my experience. We all know that our mileage may vary as it such a personal thing. That said, I do have a trip to Thailand in the works. Brazil right now seems impossibly expensive to get to. * Cannot help but feel how lucky I really am to have been able to have these experiences a multitude of times.

I have been to 7 of the ten listed beach cities. Rio wins for me.

An article in the NY Daily News tells us of a security flaw in some Android phones. Bad guys can infect your phone when you use Google Play. I downloaded the scanner to find out if my phone was vulnerable, and 3 areas were found. Fixing them requires more help from the manufacturer. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/android-phone-vulnerable-quadrooter-security-flaw-article-1.2742980

The Sun looks at Diarr-Rio: https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/1544845/shocking-aerial-picture-shows-putrid-stream-of-raw-sewage-pouring-into-filthy-rio-bay-where-athletes-will-compete-next-week/

Don't worry. He's in a pool, not the bay!

An opposing view:

Critics are savaging Rio for not cleaning up the bay where Olympic events such as sailing will occur. It stinks, they say, and you don't dare open your mouth. Rio dumps its poop into the bay, and has for years. Although promising to clean it up before the Olympics, the money for that no doubt went into politicians' pockets. Yet the Olympics have caused other host cities to clean up their sewage. It's a big problem. Think about all the food on grocery shelves. Where does it end up? Here's the article. It might open your mind, if not your anus! https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2016/aug/07/rio-stench-olympic-call-to-ordure This thread dedicated to all poop lovers, especially A.S.

Great! Were they expensive? In SF, that set would have cost $200.
