Baron Cohen, according to my Netflix notices I find hard to keep up with, now stars in a highly related espionage drama. I assume it is a serious role in which search skill requirements exceed those of Bing and Google. I am not fully up on his history, but it may be a complete departure from his previous comedy typecast role choices. Guv'ner inn't?

You cannot seriously be making ridiculous statements about me and the legitimacy of my Lagoa-related online finds, "treasures" perhaps to some but questionable in their importance and relevance, Lagoa-related based on your initiation of the Rodolfo-Edgard(e) theme, without some additional outside influence. I doubt that your mind can go there of its own accord. That idea reminded me of Mercer's show in which he made some of our neighbours look naïve and to possess distorted views about content that he hand-picked and manipulated for that purpose. The now ended TV show Big Bang Theory also comes to mind. -------- You should only engage as long as you are having fun over it. Personally, I think that we can at times be too close and too caught up in defending our perceptions to be able to see what is in front of us. That can apply to anybody. I would say that I too learned something, but it is already an all too familiar heuristic.

Rick and I went to the same Toronto gym. I wonder if he is in São Paulo and up to his old shenanigans, hoodwinking you about me. Basically in the merciless the Sascha Baron Cohen style, editing and cherry-picking for shits and giggles.

Ah, OK, a relief ... then you should be able to find the content I discovered related to him and Rodolfo, though in that content regarding Edgard's estate the final 'e' is omitted.

It's a one-sided tug-of-war ... I am not the one rope-burning my palms, though you may be doing so, mirthfully as you suggest. In your world, my not reporting and stating the two conventional double surnames = not knowing them. Whatevs, boss. BTW, Edgard does not have the added 'e'.

Being gay and versa may provide an altered frame of reference for one's take on a guy. DM if more questions.

Saint Moritz Baths and Gigolo Erotic House complex ... and a few added details. Three days of use in and comparing notes with an American couple visiting there that spoke Spanish and graciously helped me with some pointers and language/playbook details. Mind you, we are similarly using high standard comparison reference points ... Rio 117, etc; strip clubs NYC, MIA, MTL; northern/western bathhouse experiences without trade. This three-component venue does not work well in either domain, as a regular bathouse cum massage parlour, or strip/lapdance club. However, while the trade inventory is relatively small, there are some pretty attractive candidates and they are not represented in the provider photos now integrated into the complex' websites. IMHO, the best approach is to make your provider contacts there and hook up off-site. ------- I also had a positive experience with one of the few Mileroticos providers that turned out to be a genuine not fake ad. No time to pursue a few more legit ads with whom I had interacted during trip prep. Grindr blew up moderately with offers from guys with papi/grampie bents. One a very goodlooking entertainer almost begging me, but whose closet-angst turned me off. Met and dated an adorable smoking-hot straight eye-candy bartender/floorserver/host in a gay club who was down to earn some cash for worship+. He is the main reason I may return. The club infrastucture there is fairly conducive to shameless propositional flirting with low-earner house staff. I did not host at my accommodations. There is a cluster of nicely appointed, shockingly inexpensive, secure MSM affirmative, love motels near (3 blocks south) the StM/GEH venue, C62/blockK14-15, of which Motel Las Palmas impressed the shit out of me [long story]. I did not need to sample its five neighbours. I do not recommend Gay Hotel San Sebastian [long story]. Overall, I did much better left to my own deVICES than in Santo Do-Blueballs, though I may need to give LRD a more extended fair shake. I do really like Bogotá. It is reminiscent of São Paulo and CDMX. The altitude is palpable (hills/stairs) but manageable. The major downside is carbon emissions settling into its basin-like geo-structure. Meal options quite good, better than Rio. Tentatively, I would consider it as a base for play, along with short-haul jaunts throughout mainland Colombia and possibly SanAndrés/Providenciales.

There is an odd and confusing transparency in terms of less flattering images scattered throughout the soc.med. There is or was a secondary IG account bearing his name. Brings to mind photoshop viz several photos. Some gorgeous shots associated with claims of being Mr São Paulo (not shown). Indisputably gorgeous eyes. I would put money on him wearing a piece.

I found brief online judicial documents related to the "espolio" (spoils, estate) of E in which R is named. I do not know what their significance is. I could care less. I accessed thru Google search. I have no CIA and not much online skill. I do not know your legal search engine and have no desire to register or pay. They R-E files seem to commence Aug21/2018. I had formerly suggested a longer time period but docs previous to that date seem to be related to R and other issues. I had only quickly scanned them. They seem to refer to a company name unrelated to Lagoa. I can verify what I found by releasing the search clues, but I said I was reluctant to do so. I do not feel uncomfortably entrenched or troubled by accusations of mendacity. Go ahead and do what you want to pursue further. I think you have the motivation and time. But if there is a financial fee, I would have to question your level of investment in the outcome of Lagoa when it seems its future will be revealed within a few months.

His onlyfans is his actual name and $25. Weird. For $30 you can have his social media audited. LOL.

I know him by his name but he took his vastly followed Instagram private. From Curitiba. He has also claimed 5-year lawyer status on LinkedIn, where he has the bathing-beauty with flag photo on the profile! So weird. I'd put him at about age 30. North American tour. I will pass in Montreal Oct, but a slim chance he'll show at a strip club. He uses the shotgun shot method of advertising. Likely some bullshitty distortions but probably lives with the client change-of-heart consequences. His true physique is questionable. He seems to be bottom-heavy and candid photos suggest not particularly buff guns. However, he seems also to have been featured on posters and gogo'd at at least one US city Pride this season.

Well known Rio go-go. I think well into 30s. I have spent time with him watching him dance. Buddies with the GdeP that went to BCN with his lady for a few months for "working vaycay". They intersected, then the first guy returned to Rio recently. There are a few others that seem to have got in on this cross-Atlantic circuit. This guy has been intermittently in Greek islands area. I suspect he may have finagled some go-go stints thru connections. Or got a sponsor. Or just enjoying change of scenery.

Roma ... only as Cuarón’s film setting, that it is east/southeast from Tom’s Leather Bar (which I have walked to from Zona Rosa when maybe I shouldn’t have because I got stink-eye from a dodgy looking guy just south of the Insurgentes underground loop), and that you can connect to and from Juárez via a few short underground Metro connections.

No link, just common-sense search terms world-wide web. Example follows:

Well, it was no feat to find it, it took but a few minutes, but I feel I should hold back even though it is not inside info that was shared with me in confidence, and in Brazil such proceedings seem to be open-book in terms of what gets plunked onto the internet. So I have essentially no obligation to him. But if the brothel move occurs soon and seamlessly after all, there seems to be no value in my revealing more, other than gossip-mongering (which I admit I need to own as far as opening a can of worms and arousing curiosity). The association did not occur to me. Let's just wait to see the transfer outcome rather than jumping to conclusions about possible residual estate matters and the heretofore ambiguity and mystery of the prospective relocation of Lagoa. The legalese/PTG combo in the summary reports prevents me from making the same suppositions you understandably raised. If it turns out a post mortem is in order, we can go back to the drawing board in terms of whether coyness is the best course, or if I risk eviction from the league of gentlemen, or worse, accusations of fake news. This should keep a few of you busy. LOL

Well I was thinking Martin cuz of the Norwegian sign (briefcase) but of course Sellers priceless. One of my fave Martin scenes, though:

So it was not a warning “slippery when wet” directed specifically to Inspector Jacques Clouseau?

The southern area to explore spans roughly from Plaza Bolivar and its cathedral to the west, to a few blocks east of it. The Botero Museum is situated within a plus-sized expansive zone of museums contiguous with, or near, it. Within the Botero/Moneda courtyard is another excellent and popular eatery "Marcha". The Botero collection is vast and gorgeous and there is a sprinkling of Impressionist masters' paintings as well. Not to be missed. The other museums in the area may be eclipsed by the iconic Botero style, but they are all good in their own right. The Über pickup corner I chose was in front of the large yellow church I circled at C11K4 ... the vehicle approached coming along west on C11 but it might also approach coming along south on K4.

Note: following local abbreviation custom, I may continue to use C for Calle (east-west) and K for Carrera (north-south). For example, the OXXO store is the intersection of Calle 16 and Carrera 5 (C16K5). Previous posts have described the unique delineation of specific addresses using the C or K, depending on the particular exact location, and adding the cross street and building number. I wanted to fully render the OXXO store address to illustrate but an error in Google Maps prevents it. Welcome to South America. The same problem occurs for the Gold Museum. It is on K6 and C16 but listed as C15, ostensibly because it is on the south side of C16 but north of an imaginary extension of C15 not that far away but south of it. Sorry!

Coming up: Botero Museum area

Gold Museum. I visited 3 times so far; it is free for seniors and on Sundays. I hear Sundays at most sights are packed and with loads of darling but squalling children being dragged along far earlier than their developmental capacity for art appreciation. The complex is three levels and moderately large with 57,000 artefacts. The English 1-hour tour barely skimmed the surface but was fantastic. They are at 11:00 and 16:00 most days. The 5-minute immersion room, replicating traditional indigenous "offerings", is fun. The restaurant is excellent and packed with well-heeled locals. The best place to order an Über to return to Chapinero is at the OXXO convenience store at C16K5. Über is illegal. Be discreet with your phone app, watch for police, and sit in the front. Probably better to use a secure legal taxi app, but at this point I have not had the chance to determine how much Spanish proficiency would be required.

La Candelaria overview. It would be foolhardy to try to pack in all the sights in this district in one day. I suggest at least a day for the boundary box I entered for the gold museum and another day for the larger area south. 3-4 days ideally to really relax and soak it in.

I second that emotion, as a Canuck I’d have been up for the hassle of renewal this year.
