  1. Mind you, floridarob's versa version is: on the BTTM getting shtooped, or on TOP sitting on it balls deep. ;>D
  2. I preferred the original Brit version ... Charlie Hunnam (Nathan, not Justin in that one) so hot, and his career certainly took off better.
  3. Two different guides ... Armstrong favela-focused and Vidal gay-focused.
  4. Yes, an older GAY white man, a chilling sicko to be sure, though not financially motivated. Even in polite Canada. And an acquaintance Harley was murdered in Toronto in 2006 through an online hookup, a down-on-his luck stockbroker who got desperate when trying to extort money and realized was headed for charges for unlawful restraint, etc.
  5. The one headline I feel is enough, within news cycles, with which to 'play chicken' is "'Gay Male Sex Tourist's Throat Slit Ear-to-Ear By Boytoy Hooker". The favela comes to me, and in me, or otherwise necklaced on me with throat intact ... I have no need to go to it.
  6. I cheat-read skimmed it last year at my local bookstore, according to my buy-one-read-one-free senior consumer playbook. I found it to be a rather fun though fluffy confection, similar genre as Under the Tuscan Sun, Eat Pray Love, Nanny Diaries, etc, but the prize committee must have thought it was meritorious. Shows how much I know about fiction. I do not think I was the only surprised one. Up there with Faulkner, Updike, Wharton, Cather, Wilder, Buck, Steinbeck, Michener, Hemingway, Agee, Harper Lee, Bellow, Roth, Walker, Shields, Eugenides, and gay Michael Cunningham? Really?! I will have to give his previous novels a look, as surely there must be some consistency of excellence to warrant this prestigious prize.

    For those who like gay-themed literature associated with their travel destinations, I have read all of Sri Lankan Canadian Shyam Selvadurai's award-winning fiction set in his native country. Excellent works. Not gay-themed but Michael Ondaatje's 'fictional memoir' (a unique genre) Running in the Family is a gem. He can do no wrong. It just occurred to me that, outside of USA, Canada, and UK sourced writers the most fiction I have read by authors born abroad is that of emigrated Sri Lankans (or the more exotic sounding Ceylonese).
  9. Defeats the purpose, as I would want to EAT him long before I could BE him.
  10. Many of us retirees prefer the 'ho'-key pokey ... that's what it's all about.

    Exercise caution. There is some anti-discrimination protection for those who identify as gay but homosexual acts remain illegal. Some headway is being made due to United Nations pressure, but decriminalization remains a work in progress.
  12. I watch all English-language TV with language closed caption. My hearing is good but sometimes sound recording is bad or it is like actors have a mouth full of marbles. It would be easy to miss the Gruff reference as it was just visual when younger Berryman scrolling a few seconds.
  13. But when will poppy seeds be restored to their rightful status in lemon loaf ... what was all the floss about?
  14. And later in the following decade ...
  15. Robbie is transformed to play Elizabeth I, substituting for kneecap shattering that era's answer to status threat, in Mary Stuart, with Saoirse Ronan in the lead.
  16. For brief and organized visitors, the Tomorrow Museum, Art Museum across from it, Benedictine monastery/church already mentioned and walkable to the first two, and the aquarium 2 short VLT stops further n/w can all be done in one sweep the same day.
  17. And for us older fogies in Brasil I recently discovered and successfully tested the privilege of having no disabling impairment but getting advance plane boarding irrespective of ticket class.
  18. Wasn't that the time you swerved trying to dbl-self-penetrate the BT and shift sticks?
  19. Delicious buff midsection/crotch shots and nicely manicured buffed not-nervously-chewed-down-to-the-quick nails ... mm ... but distraction fail The giveaway about this hot garoto is the signature superfeature à la Avengers or Darkest Minds: an optimally optionally retractable forefingerfucker! I love me some skilled digital penetration. A secondary superhuman trait is he milks in all the right ways, sparing you greedy added expense upon added expense.
  20. I just binged and enjoyed it. Nice to see Downton's Edith, Marchioness of Hexham, and Room With a View's George Emerson getting cameo roles. Redgrave heartbreaking, reminds me of Atonement's epilogue. I started crushing on the actor playing 6'3" Berryman when he was Harker in the Brit Dracula series. However, one howler breaking the serious tone was the extremely poor rendering of his face in the final portrait reveal of March's painting. Another howler is the Grindr/Scruff hybrid app "Gruff".
  21. Rio Times online, 3 views per day without subscription, for fairly comprehensive NightLife and Entertainment listings, has steered me towards some great low-cost or free classical music concerts. Theatro Municipal is back in full swing, check programacão, though I usually go to the box office for purchases as it is convenient and I do not yet have CPF for online.
  22. If is raining the weather tends to cripple road traffic so it may be more feasible in those conditions to take the Metro but give more time for the shuttle portion. A shuttle in rain to a nearby airport hotel from my arrival terminal mid-evening took over an hour door-to-door.
  23. Good for the meetup of 3 ... Even the leatherbarkeep knows 4 is a crowd.
  24. Sorry, I realize here that "off" may have suggested some kind of discount in my favour. What I mean, of course, is 3-5% deviation from the true bank exchange, therefore paying 3-5% more. So recently, compared to true exchange, losing 4 reais per 100. To be honest, I only looked it up this time but I generally do not bother to calculate what buying money costs me. Sex in Brasil, a major activity, is generally discounted by 60-80%.
