This was my go to newspaper for topics on Gay news & entertainment . Used to always cut out the discount coupon for the Gaiety. Before the internet & sites like Grindr the Classifieds were the way to meet people.
 
Sad to read that their on-line news will also be closing.
 
RIP Village Voice.

One ad I read in 1967, I can still quote to this day:
 
"Multiple amputee seeks same for fun and games."
 
Funny how something like that can stick in your brain.

Classified ads were a big revenue source for the paper and helped keep it going

Although I haven't read it in years, I am sorry to see this. It used to be an excellent source for finding rental apartments in the Village when I was a young man.

The House Of Flowers is a new Netflix series. It’s quite good. It’s about a very likeable & good looking Mexican family that owns a very successful flower shop. It’s a crazy family that will do whatever it takes to support each other.
 
Lots of gay, straight, & bi sex. Each of the 13 Episodes is 30 min. It was just renewed for a 2nd series. The 1st episode won me over.
 
The House of Flowers (Spanish: La Casa de las Flores) is a Mexicancomedy-drama web television series created by Manolo Caro. It depicts a dysfunctional high-class Mexican family that owns a prestigious flower shop. The first 13-episode season was released on August 10, 2018.

Mine too. I felt so young when I would buy it instead of the staid NYT or other establishment papers. It also had a lot of entertainment news you could not get anywhere else. The times are changing but will morph into something else.

Very sad. I was an avid reader years ago while in NYC.

This is one of the tragic downsides of online technology. Our country's newspapers are treading the same path so many of our country's magazines have trod.

I started watching it last night and am halfway through it. Love it. Great gay story line. Nice ass shots of Julian (the character wearing the blue suit i the trailer). I was able to watch it in it's original version of spanish/mexican for some reason.

Yippee! Tonight I finally made it through all 12 questions.

Do you play, @Cooper ? I'm unreasonably good at trivia, a skill which has not really benefited me in the past.

From Fairytail's Insta:

Hey @rvwnsd happy birthday, hope you have a great day! I always enjoy the things you have to say in here. (Yes, I'm early in posting for those of you in the US. It's already Sunday here.)

FYI: The no posting reviews rule also applies to Grindr or any social media hookups as they, too, are a HR1865 Violation. Recently, the administrators removed a thread that contained a detailed account of a hookup & the cost involved. Please, for all our sakes, follow the Terms & Rules and keep the site safe. Thanks.
