There must be something about Cabaret on Broadway that gets people going. Back in 2014, Shia LeBeouf grabbed Alan Cumming's ass during a performance of Cabaret as well.

The latest inflation report is not a huge deal. Look…inflation is way down from where it was. The final push to get it to target levels will be a slog. As long as oil stays high, it will be slow-going.

Wasn't Berlin a very large club? Not sure that's well-suited to become a male strip club if so.

Now that’s interesting. I guess we’ll have to wait and see. I don’t think we’ll have to wait long…it seems Matt is already moving to Chicago.

Things seem to be moving fast regarding the Chicago location. Matt's FB page indicates they are already looking to hire dancers/bar staff/etc. That suggests to me that an opening might be just a few weeks away. I have no inside info, but I'm going with the rumor that they are taking over the Horseshoe. Matt was in Chicago recently and he did visit the Lucky Horseshoe during his visit.

It's reported that traffic was stopped in both directions before the bridge collapse. However, there were some workers on the bridge at the time filling potholes and it seems they ended up in the water. Several but not all were rescued. It's also reported that multiple cars went in the water as well. If traffic had been stopped, they may have been the worker's cars that had been parked on the bridge.

Eureka Springs seems pretty remote. I'm sure it's lovely for a 2-3 day visit but I would start to get fidgety after that. The closest decent sized city is Tulsa which is more than a two hour drive from what I can tell...and Tulsa doesn't even qualify as a big city IMO. So big city life is pretty far away if you're yearning for culture/sports/etc.

Well I wonder what all this means? I guess we'll have to wait and see. So what happens on the other nights? More drag is my prediction.

There is an announcement on the Stock Website indicating: We Listened May 2024 CONTROL/ALT/REFRESH Anyone know what is changing? Also, it seems that Monday is now drag night.

One lousy inflation report does not make a crisis. Let’s see how the trend goes in the coming months. Recoveries from inflation are almost never completely linear. There will be bumps in the road which are normal and expected.

I saw that too. Matt’s Facebook page shows he was just in Chicago visiting numerous bars…including the Lucky Horseshoe. Based on Matt’s postings, a future Atlanta location seems further down the path…but I guess we’ll see. I’ll be thankful to have a non-Florida location to see hot guys shake their stuff and spend my gay $ at.

Barcelona sits ENE of Madrid...but it is indeed warmer than Madrid (especially in the winter) due to its location on the Med.

It was not the Happy Tap...it was JR's and I went there numerous times in the 1980's. Totally different location and on the riverfront. It preceded the Happy Tap and was a much better and busier club with Toronto and Montreal talent rotating through regularly. Oh....the good old days.

Ah yes...our former poster from California who claimed he was a retired medical doctor. I never really believed he was a medical professional. He dished out such dodgy medical advice on Mpox and COVID...it was scandalous. Anyway, I got the Mpox vaccine early on when it first appeared and I highly recommend it. I had no side-affects.

Further to this, I see on the Stock website they have a video of him dancing at the club on Febuary 16th. So he does still dance there.

I took Brightline from Miami to Ft. Lauderdale last week. My Premium ticket cost $32. A Premium Class ticket entitles you to an Uber ride to your departing station and from your arriving station (I think there is a five mile limit for each segment). I made use of Uber on both ends with the costs being fully covered by Brightline. According to their calculations, the Uber costs were just over $30. If this is accurate, that means my resulting train fare in Premium Class was $2. BTW, the Premium ticket entitled me to an alcoholic beverage and a small snack (potato chips and a candy bar). I declined both but I could have had them if I wanted. How is Brightline making any money? I'd be interested in seeing their financials. Who is funding this project? FWIW, the train seemed only about 10% full on this segment. After Lauderdale, my train was stopping in Palm Beach and then Orlando. This was my 4th time on Brightline and none of the trips have been very full. I hope they can make a go of this...but I really wonder.

Correct! And many of them insist they don’t pay enough in taxes.

I am posting this in the Male Strip Club section because Phillipe has been a Montreal stripper for quite a few years. This story is in the public domain so I assume it is OK to post it. Stock aficionados will recall Phillipe who danced at Stock some years prior to COVID. He started as a cute energetic rather skinny but toned guy who, at the time, was a good friend of Yannick (also a Stock Dancer then). Phillipe eventually got into serious bodybuilding and transitioned from Stock to Campus and also took long stretches off from dancing. I last saw Phillipe at Campus in November of 2023. Actually we spent the evening at the bar with a few other dancers reminiscing about old times. Personally, I did not really care for his roided-up muscles and huge neck but it was fun to reconnect with someone I had spent time with years before. Fast-forward to this week and my trip to Lauderdale. I was talking to a few of the Canadian dancers and they said that Phillipe was in prison for beating up a girlfriend. I texted a Montreal dancer that I know well and he confirmed it was true. I quickly was able to find some news stories about the topic. It seems he is likely to do some serious time for this as he is a repeat offender. Again, I don't think I'm breaking any rules as all of this is in the public domain.

Well I'm back from my three days in Ft. Lauderdale. I did go to Johnson's all three nights (Tue/Wed/Thurs). I stay clear of bars on weekends as they get too busy and packed for my taste. Anyway, all three nights at Johnson's were quite busy so I guess the high season for Florida has arrived. Great fun all three nights. As usual, lot's of latino dancers with a few Italians and Americans mixed in. Only one fairly big muscle guy there. He was from South Africa. Tall with big muscles but strangely fem in the way he moved and danced. Anyway, I spent time with Tobias (from Buenos Aires with a huge cock), Dorian (from Italy), Gregorio (from Cordoba Arg with a perfect big ass), Fire (from Madrid...super nice), Lionel (from Rosario Arg), and Mateus (from Medellin). All good fun. I always enjoy using my Spanish when I'm in the South Florida clubs. There were multiple Canadians at Johnsons. I did not recognize any of them but they said they were from Campus in Montreal. Mostly on the smaller/skinny side so not really my type. The club was buzzing on the weeknights that I was there so I can only imagine what the weekend will be like. Only a few women there...all of whom had a male escort. Very handsome bartenders. There are five lapdance cubicles to use. They were all quite busy all three nights.

I wish Jamie Dimon would end his interviews saying "Since I'm consistently wrong with my economic predictions...who really knows?"

Ryan was looking good still for the film The Proposal (2007 I believe). I don't think he has aged well since then. I was two rows behind him on a red-eye flight from LAX to JFK. He got up and down several times and I got a good view of him...nothing special. Also, he seemed quite fem acting when interacting with the flight attendants. I would definitely spend my thousand on someone else.

Fair comment.

I believe Tesla has the highest recall rate of all car brands. So I would be careful with that. I tend to stick with American-based car brands for patriotic reasons. My last three vehicles have been the Chrysler 300. It’s large, very comfortable, and none of them have given me an ounce of trouble. Chrysler stopped making the 300 late last year but you can still find some models on dealer lots. I bought mom’s Honda Accord from her two years ago as she doesn’t drive anymore. I use it as my second vehicle to knock around town and run errands. It too as been very reliable but I really hate the car. It sits far too low to the ground for me and it’s a tight fit when inside. Also a loud and rough ride. I personally would never get another one. Having said that, lots of people love the Accord and it sells well. with so many people driving pick-ups and SUVs (that sit higher up) you don’t want to be in a vehicle that sits too low. Happy car shopping!!

My issue with Mr. Dimon has nothing to do with politics. I don't even know what his political leanings are. It has everything to do with him predicting the US is imminently going to fall into a recession since November of 2020. So he's been wrong for over three years with his prediction. To me, he has zero credibility anymore. How he manages to hold the top job at JP Morgan/Chase is beyond me.
