Endless thanks for indulging my sillinesses.

Re Rockhard’s immediately-above discussion of the luxury hotel business. My businessman friend’s wife, very involved in the marketing/sales side of his tech businesses, also full-time ran/managed a luxury hotel/spa property on Gulf Port Shores. And remotely managed a most excellent vineyard they owned in Sonoma, to boot.

The recently deceased wife of this brilliant man, his business collaborator throughout life, still very much alive himself. https://huntsvillebusinessjournal.com/tag/intergraph/

Several friends own & manage high-end hotel/resort/spa properties. Down on Gulf Port Shores, Jupiter Island, etc. It is an intense day-in day-out hands-on business.

You will please, please forgive me for making this crack that makes us out both as dinosaurs here: ‘You did not acquire the Hotel Cala de Volpe?!’

Why do both those locutions sound more than a little dirty?

I think we are all interesting, and interested in a lot of different experiences, and in the very different & differentiated individuals we encounter, and that this notion of sexual ‘orientation’ as an absolute categorization is pretty primitive and not at all descriptive of how we actually live and explore and experience.

Certainly in prosperous & job-rich America it is self-chosen.

Solely to disrupt this train of thought...

Think you’ve generously told most of them here (or its predecessor site) already.

If you like what you do, for whom it you do,it, because it has inherently impeachable value to him/her too, then you have found the spot.

Here is a simpliccisimus/ read all of Freud & Adler & Jung & etc etc. & zis thread vould not jab to exist.

DON'T. Life is short.

May one, extremely reluctantly and disappointedly, observe that extended tit-for-tat like that above is behaviour brought over from the other site?

‘Were there no cucumbers?’ ’None. Not even for ready money.’

A very real and well documented transgression. Shameless. And not the only one of such. He also published scurrilous rubbish about the ‘former escort couple’ then (2005) working out of LA.

What is, honestly, the connection between he & daddy? Tell us.
