Just for some info-and while I haven't stayed in any of them for about 6 years now-I found these hotels perfectly nice and reasonably priced back then. I stayed in two or three of them over a two year period. I esp liked the one in Times Square. https://www.applecorehotels.com/ Gman

I have no idea what that could have been a metaphor for. But if we are talking about an actual stain, then it might. It's going to depend probably on the ink type and how tightly the ink has bonded to the fibers of the shirt. I have a pair of jeans with an ink stain that has been washed and dried repeatedly for over a year. I put some sanitizer on it, and while the spot hasn't come out of it (yet), a lot of ink started dissolving to the point that the spot started spreading. I'd probably let the sanitizer sit on the stain for a while (if you are ok with the possibility that the alcohol might fade the material), rinse with cold water, and keep repeating. Gman

No, No, No!! Not that tip!!! It's a laundry tip. I had some ink on a shirt that I needed to get out. I had a vague memory that when I was younger we sprayed hairspray on the spot. Well, I looked it up on the Web. The site I found said the reason that used to work was due to the fact that most hairsprays had tons of alcohol in them. It was the alcohol and not the hairspray that dissolved the ink. Today most hairsprays have either reduced the amount of alcohol or have removed it entirely. Looking a bit further either on that website or another to find a modern day solution, I came across the suggestion to use hand sanitizer. Most of them are at least 60% alcohol or higher. I've actually used this, and in 3 out of 4 cases so far it's worked. And I have hopes for the 4th shirt. It's removed a lot of the ink. I'm leaving the hand sanitizer on it for a few hours to see if that will remove the last bit. You do have to rub the spot a bit after applying. But this stuff is incredible!! Gman

I'm glad I was done as an infant. I'd prefer not to have that pain ad an adult when I can remember it. As for aesthetics, I prefer the look of a cut tallywacker. Gman

I hate avocados. Gman

The word partner, along with husband and boyfriend, is just white noise for me. Gman

Maybe they are all from Russian Bots? Gman

Ask me no questions, I'll tell you no lies. But I do answer PMs. Gman

I feel for you. It's awful when you have high expectations due to an escort receiving nothing but paeans (hymns of praise) from experienced fellow hobbyists, and then the meeting turns into a dud either due to poor chemistry, the escort having a bad night, the client having a bad night, or some combination of those factors. I can particularly remember two occasions (actually 3 as I met one of the escorts twice) where the escorts in question were darlings of the Forum at the time, but my meetings with them were definitely, well, underwhelming to say the least. I'll relate one of them here. This guy as I mentioned above was a Forum Favorite for years and years. He may may still be escorting although I'm not sure if he is advertising currently. I had been a bit iffy about meeting him as he didn't have any face pictures in his ad, and while he had a nice physique, I usually liked more muscular guys. But the escort had such incredible reviews, and even more impressive were the comments made by our fellows here on the Forum. So the evening got off to an annoying start when he arrived late. We had dinner and a show to get to. I ended up picking out a random restaurant across the street from my hotel just to speed things along. We even had to tell the waiter we were in a hurry, so we could make the show on time. Then after dinner and the play when we were back at the hotel, he said he didn't know I was interested in topping when I had specified that in my first email. I don't think I had reminded him after that. But maybe I had. But don't you think an experienced escort might have taken the time to re-read our correspondence? In any case we were having an overnight, and my hotel room had a shower. I would have thought that maybe he could have figured out a way to prep himself considering we had all night. The one saving grace for the evening was that he was incredibly gifted at oral. And just my luck that while his physique wasn't horrible or anything, he increased his muscularity noticeably about a year or so after I hired him. Gman

Are there actually Forum members who love (I mean live) at the Department of Motor Vehicles? Gman

If it's the guy I'm thinking of, one reviewer said Pierre gave him crabs. Gman

It used to work for me using the method I described above. But I think I am going to try @Keith30309's suggestion. Gman

I'm almost never on my computer anymore. To use Google Image Search with my iPhone (assuming I can't find the URL of the picture) , I have to take screenshot of the picture. And as Chrome doesn't really have Image Search on its mobile app, I have to upload the picture to Dropbox. Obtain the link from Dropbox. Put that link in the Chrome Mobile Browser to get the picture to show up in my browser window. And then use the Search The Web Function in Chrome. This used to work really well. But probably for at least a year, I don't think I've ever had it match a picture of an escort. Gman

My mistake. :(I didn't know there was a new Patrick in NYC. The one I listed was in NYC until two years ago. I deleted my post. However I've been confused for a very long time. My post back in 2016 was also referring to Patrick York who now lives in California. I deleted that one too. @njr47 I think @bigjoey might have been mistaken too and was talking about the former "NYC" Patrick York now "California" Patrick in his post about the 2013 review. As the Patrick this thread is about (unless he stopped and restarted his ad) only started advertising in 2016. Gman

He started advertising towards the end of my hiring period. I considered flying him to me for a weekend. My recollection from his previous ad is that he has a pretty thick tallywacker. I love watching a guy cum although I'm not one of those guys who like to get it all over me. While I still think he is attractive, if I were still hiring, I'd have a difficult time justifying hiring him with his current limits. But I'm really glad you had a good time with him. Gman

My recollection.from when he was in NYC was that he had several good reviews. Gman

It's funny you mention weakness. By being of a member of an MG group on Facebook, people have talked about feeling weak on steroid weans if they wean too quickly, or in some cases if they wean to too low a dose. This isn't specific to MG. Once your body becomes steroid dependent, it can have trouble responding to physiologic stress. Other people have talked about muscle pains on weaning steroid. The past two days I've had some sinking spells-but I don't know whether it's just generally not being in shape, the myasthenia gravis, the steroid wean, or maybe it's just being a bit under the weather. Also my tongue is acting up a very little bit today. Probably no one else could tell by hearing me speak. But my tongue feels a bit thick. However because I've been feeling so well lately, the last few days I've taken less of my Mestinon (that's the medicine I take that combats symptoms only-it does nothing to control the underlying pathology causing the disease). It's totally fine if I can get by with less Mestinon. As it is only a medicine for symptoms, if I'm not symptomatic I can reduce my dose. In fact previously I was taking more than my neurologist really liked. If you take too much, it can overstimulate your muscles. One of the muscles it can overstimulate is the diaphragm. An overstimulated diaphragm can become paralyzed and prevent you from breathing. So I basically titrate the amount of Mestinon I take depending on my symptoms. Years ago when if you were seriously ill, you basically died, POAs might not have been as necessary. These days with all of our life extending technologies POAs for singles seem more of a necessity. That's a good idea. But I really only have relatives to depend upon. So the second person would be my older sister. My Mom is still alive and 'with it,' but I don't think I should put the responsibility on her at the age of 83. Gman

Any lawyers on here-would in most states a spouse be entitled to make the decisions without the need for a power of attorney, or would spouses need to be named on POA too? Gman

[uSER=11372]@thenewguy656[/uSER] -please don't answer if this is out of line, and if it is, I apologize. But did you meet them on a hook-up basis, or was it an escort/client meeting because I know I've been propositioned before on Grindr by guys who want to know if I'm generous? Gman

Since I'm single-no kids, without a significant other (most likely never to have one), no close friends, and have *myasthenia gravis-a disease that can have potentially serious (but if I'm lucky, hopefully not) consequences, I'm about to set up a medical power of attorney. Considering my social circumstances, I probably would need to do it even if I didn't have myasthenia. But the MG makes it more of a certainty. I'm going to name my older brother as the 'attorney'. Does anyone else have one? Gman * In case anyone is interested, I'm doing really well with my myasthenia. I was on 60 mg of prednisone daily for about 2 months. Since then I've been weaning the dose every 4 weeks. I'm currently at 25 mg. After starting the steroids, I became really weak for a while. I had trouble holding my head up. Also I could barely hold a pen to write. And I was having a lot of trouble eating due to trouble swallowing and difficulty chewing due to weak jaw muscles. Sometimes my speech was affected due to a weak tongue although often I was the only one who could notice. Some of this could have been a side effect of the steroids. A significant percentage of patients get weaker when 1st starting steroids before their symptoms get better from them. But it's not like I wasn't having problems before the steroids too. One hypothesis is that steroids have two mechanisms of action. The first is muscle toxicity. That's what causes the weakness and occurs first. The second mechanism is to down regulate whatever part of the immune system is producing the antibodies attacking the muscles. And this is what reduces the symptoms and actually gets the disease under control. Prior to the steroids, I had been down about 20 pounds due to the trouble eating and some depression. I have gained about 30 pounds since starting the prednisone. And my main symptoms now are some mild trouble swallowing, and some back/neck muscle pain/weakness. But that's the main side effect I've seen. It's never really affected my mood. G

In days of yore there was some kind of group of straight guys escorting. They had one phone number. And the pictures on the ad would change from time to time. And I think that if you called the number or emailed, you were speaking to a handler for the guys and not the actual escort. Maybe that's what is going on here. Gman

Luckily in this case the changing of Dorothys from Gale of Kansas to Zbornak (née Petrillo) of Miami (and formerly of NYC) doesn't change the meaning of the phrase at all. Gman
