Inside a bar or restaurant, they can have their own policies regarding photography. Outside, on the street, there can be and should be no expectation of privacy. You're in public, and these there are CCTV monitoring your every move just about everyplace in any case.

Though I really creamed my pants when I saw him for the first time in Thelma and Louise...

I don't have a 2025 pic, but here's what he looked like in early 2023, when he was 59: Yeah, I guess I'd pay for that, too!

I've never been into bondage, although I'm a huge fan of Logan Lerman's and relished seeing him tied up naked for most of the movie Oh, Hi!

Obviously, he's not in his 20s. But I'd pay for sex with him (based on his looks alone). I can say that for extremely few sexagenarians. Sexy at sixty is rare. Unfortunately, I'm not one of those rarities! 😉

Here he is at 62. I'm impressed.

I was also reminded of the before and after photos as I looked at the photo my husband has of me on his dresser. It's of me in my mid 20s. When he shows it to friends, the photo often gets over-the-top reactions like "Oh, my God!", as if I'd turned into some kind of ogre. 😄 😁Well, there are few who survived into their 60s still looking as hot as in their 20s. Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise are the only two I can think of, off-hand...

In my first post on this string, I wrote: "I hope I'm reading this incorrectly, and that you're not hinting that the parents are in any way responsible for their own deaths...". To which you directly responded: "With much regret I am indeed hinting this...". The fact that you later said that you were not the one who came up with this theory doesn't change what you wrote.You're simply backtracking now.

Gaak! Corey Feldman is a good advertisement against the ravages of substance abuse. At least he lasted longer than his fellow substance abuser and "friend" Corey Haim.

Fabio appears to have aged decently well, IMHO

In your original post, you stated the parents were responsible for the murders due to "...a misunderstanding on the part of the boy’s parents on how to deal with such very substantial on-going substance abuse, and a steady build-up of anger." You later stated stated that the parents "took their son to endless doctors, psychiatrists or whoever they believed qualified and thereafter took their words as gospel," which, to me, implies that you blame them for placing too much value on professionals' advice. It appears as though the parents originally followed the professionals' advice and later maybe didn't. If you want to clarify your beliefs, would you clearly state your position? Was the parents' error in following the professionals' advice too closely, or was it due to their ultimate (apparent?) rejection of such advice?

It's ironic that there are many foreign speakers on this trip (from Spain, Germany, Belgium, Colombia, etc.) whose English is easier for us to understand than the Australian's. And English is the Spaniard's 3rd language (he grew up speaking Catalan in Mallorca, then learned Spanish in school, and later English).

Not really. In the US this can only happen when both houses of Congress, the Presidency, and the Supreme Court are all controlled by the same party. In a parliamentary system, the political leader and the leader of the legislature are one and the same, so it is always the case (especially since the legislatures in such systems are almost always unicameral--the House of Lords doesn't really have any power). There have certainly been times when in the US, all 3 branches were controlled by the same party, but never by led by a sociopathic criminal con-man before. Even Thatcher wasn't that nutty. In a parliamentary system, there really are no checks and balances. In Hungary, Orbán has unfettered power, with resulting consequences. Trump could easily happen in any parliamentary system. It would be.a mistake to think it can't happen. A lot of damage can happen in 2 years, but at least Congress will probably be able to put the brakes on Trump's criminal endeavors in another year or so. Had the Democrats been able to pick their candidate, this horror probably wouldn't have befallen the US. Unfortunately, Biden's dementia and ego prevented him from understanding he was in no condition to run again, much less rule. Disaster ensued.

I'm from the Far West (live in Los Angeles, grew up in Oakland), I don't pronounce merry and marry the same, thought Mary and marry are only slightly different.

Which parts?

One has to pronounce Mandarin Chinese carefully to say "Is Mom cursing the horse?" Māmā mà mǎ ma? 妈妈 骂马吗?

My husband was startled upon seeing the current appearance of the legendary actress Shirley MacLaine
