  1. If you are interested in the Hue system I'd start out with the white light bulb starter kit and use it to replace any light timers you might have around the house. If you start out with a few bulbs you will get to know how the system works in general before you try playing with colors and switches and whatnot. It is a great system, but there are some quirks in the way it creates programs that require getting used to.

    Huge pecs

    Well, you did say you were looking for someone into pec fucking. Given the discussions I've seen in the seventeen years of browsing and ten-plus years of posting in the forum I haven't seen many (or any) posts about that topic, which leads me to believe it isn't a particularly popular activity that would garner many recommendations. My advice is to ask escorts who have huge pecs if they would be into that and then come back and ask for opinions on the provider/providers you select.
  3. To answer your question @Lance_Navarro I believe I have some homophobia in my being. Not a lot, but some.
  4. True, to a point. The customer purchases the cashier's check and is immediately charged for it via a charge to the account. There's no "usually" about it. I would not call it the most secure, as it can get lost and the purchaser has no way to know whether it has been negotiated unless they contact the bank and the bank researches the item. It does guarantee immediate or near-immediate availability up to a dollar threshold that varies by institution in which it is deposited. They are also widely counterfeited. There are two ways these work. 1) The bank puts a hold on the account in the amount of the certified check and 2) the bank debits the amount from the customer's account, posts them to a special account controlled by the bank, and places a MICR-encoded sticker with the bank's account number on top of the customer's account number. These are no longer widely used, as banks prefer to issue cashier's checks. In the US, it refers to an instrument that is drawn on the bank's account held at a different bank. These are typically not used in conjunction with retail accounts. A bank's trust department might use them, however. In other countries, "Bank Draft" refers to a cashier's check. They are actually similar to cashier's checks, the distinction being the payee is typically filled in by the purchaser. Banks are phasing out money orders, but grocery and convenience stores still sell them in droves. They are also widely counterfeited. I'll preface this by saying I don't think @samhexum made this up, but I don't believe the story is 100% accurate. If the bank were to re-issue the check, the original would have a stop-payment issued against it. Were it to be negotiated, the check would be returned. Requiring an affidavit in conjunction with a stop payment is not uncommon. My guess is the affidavit specifies that the payee becomes liable for the money if they negotiate the check and/or indemnifies the bank if the purchaser is placing a stop payment in bad faith. What I think happened is the bank suggested a wire transfer and the sister balked at the fee, so they offered a cashier's check as an alternative. I agree with you. In the US, a sum this large would be sent via FedWire, i.e. a wire transfer. It reaches the destination bank almost immediately upon being sent, unless there is an intermediary bank involved in which case a few hours might be tacked on. The funds are also immediately available. ACH is typically not used because 1) the fastest they can be sent is next-day, 2) they can be returned by the issuing bank, and 3) the account has to be set up to send ACH's, which typically does not occur with estate accounts. Most countries (Canada included) have the equivalent of FedWire, so there is no reason a wire could not have been sent. They need to sign the affidavit, pick up the check, and immediately deposit it into their own account or have a wire sent.

    Well there you have it. Bullet dodged.
  6. I'm sorry to hear this news.
  7. Hearing guys' coming out experience stories over seven years of facilitating a coming out group were heartwarming and life-affirming. Sure, there were a handful of less-than-great experiences, but by and large the family members and/or friends the guys confided in were very, very supportive and loving. I hope your brother-in-law is as well. Please do report back.

    Dental Issue

    My favorite optometrist of all time is located at a Costco in San Diego. She does no upselling.

    Dental Issue

    My last dentist in San Diego did something like this. They would determine what the insurance would pay for and then insist that I have the work done. And we wonder why we have runaway healthcare costs.
  10. Mom and I would watch and then I'd go out to the bars
  11. My guess is you have been meeting guys who exhibit stereotypical "macho" characteristics.
  12. He should hire an assistant. Oh, wait, we don't like that either. Never mind.
  13. My guess is @caliguy meant what he said. In addition to multiple body types and some pics having large hairy forearms and others having thinner hairless forearms, his nipples are pink in all but one of the photos in which they are brown.
  14. Customer name and last four of the card number are considered customer data. Even if he obfuscated it, at virtually every company releasing an internal record, such as a receipt, outside of the company is grounds for dismissal. If this guy is comfortable with taking a photo of a receipt and posting it online I wonder whether he would stop there or would he be equally comfortable taking a photo of the front and back of a credit card belonging to a difficult patron.
  15. Understand why one would not hire an escort for a repeat when said escort appears to be using someone else's pictures. Also understand, despite feeling differently, that one might not want an escort to contact them about a future meeting. However, I am uncertain as to how an escort following up about a future hire is a warning sign of potential danger, which is what a red flag is.
  16. In my experience with both of them, neither was dominating, domineering, controlling attitude, which are typically the characteristics ascribed to an "alpha male."
  17. I wonder how many pairs of shoes they have between them and how many they brought to China.
