out of the wood work I come..... hey there from S NJ!!!! I miss you guys!

Thanks, tony! Niece is 4 going on 34. LOL Cheeze is fine, she doesn't know it is CHEESE, and will have a blast in any situation. We have plans for the Guggenheim, as the "grown ups" (chronologically!) want to see the Kandinsky's there. But we will keep the options open, thanks! What I really need is a restaurant that will be fun for the adults, but not with a "no-kids" atmosphere. Any ideas there? The niece is really, really well behaved, but I would like the whole experience to be amazing for her. Any suggestions on where to eat?? Thanks again!

Yellow fin, and salmon roll, so far. Tried Sea Urchin and Giant Clam- to me, both tasted/felt like, well, I will spare you the description but, BLECH!

Hi all! I may have a great opportunity to bring my niece into the city for the tree, FAO Schwartz, and a museum this weekend. The best thing about my niece is she has more manners than I have seen on most adults. So, does anyone have any good suggestions as to where a kid and about 5 adults can ALL have a good time for lunch and/or dinner while doing the whole trite "xmas in NYC" thing? We will be in midtown, I guess, but don't mind easy subway travel. Thanks so much!!!!

Night train was pretty bad, too. And for beer, I remember getting a 6 of "something good" like Bud or Coors, and getting a case of HAMMS. Everybody drinks one "good" one, and then the Hamms didn't taste so bad. That and a gallon jug of carlo rossi and you got yourself a par-tay!

dont forget Madonna rubber gasket bracelets when Kylie Minogue did the Locomotion and Whitney wanted to "dance with somebody" Mork Suspenders Legwarmers Sweatshirts with the neck cut out, like FlashDance Roller Sandals with pop out wheels Kick 'N' Go Chess King Friday Night Videos Mr. Bill Alisha Shannon Salt 'n' Pepa Boy George (and the people who INSISTED he was straight) And for the DJ's, I don't know if they still have anything like this but remember Record Pools??? OMG Panache!!!!! Remember Baby O's???? And the music, I remember weird mixes of everything from "I wanna be sedated" to Rapper's Delight all in the same teen-night! That was a tough time right after the death of disco!

hey there! I don't have a 40, but I picked up a case of Black Label, want one now, you studly old geezer????

The Miss America Parade in Atlantic City was fabulous!!!! 51 beautiful women, several thousand barely-talented high school students, some businesses and civic organizations made the promenade down the Atlantic City boardwalk tonight. Amongst Mohegan Sun floats and the Willamstown Band and Drill Team representatives from 51 parts of the country raised their legs to shouts of "Show Us Your Shoes!!!!!" Miss Florida sported orange heels with sequined oranges atop, and Miss Arizona had a player piano on her piggies. Some of them had really great footwear, ones you'd actually wear, like Miss Alaska's beaded moccasin boots, and others, like Miss Indiana had a trellis-like contraption, looking more like a cast than a shoe. I was told that the "Show Us Your Shoes!!!" tradition started somehow due to the gay fans on New York Ave. having a great affinity for the shoes the women wore. I also heard that it replaced "Show us Your Tits" after some guys got arrested for harassment. I don't know how it came to be. so if anyone can clarify that, please do, but the request is now a major part of the parade. I would have to say that Most Beautiful that I saw, from about 25 ft away (yeah, its a REAL BIG boardwalk LOL), would have to be Miss Alaska, Miss Hawaii, and Miss DC. They really all are pretty, well, there was this one whose smile was...unnatural...but I digress... If I were to pick just from the parade, DC or Hawaii would have it. All in all, it was a great time. SHOW US YOUR SHOES!!!!

Issey Miake is my current favorite, with Hugo Deep Red running a close second. Realm for men is nice and is supposed to contain pheromones for that extra edge

Beauty, IMHO you are asking the wrong questions. In light of the fact that we are *all* going to die someday, perhaps the question you should ask is: "What if, when I do die, I look back and see that I was frozen with fear, and didn't take risks, and didn't live life to its fullest?" Some things will never be OK. That's just the way life is. Don't look for someone to "make it all better" because some things just don' t get better. And some things... well, some things will be ok, some will be great and some will be amazing! It is the balance and range of life that "makes it ok". Highs, lows, and everywhere in between, I hope you learn to enjoy it all. <wannabe fades back into the woodwork where she belongs>

I hadn't been out in years before 9/11 happened. So I guess I started going out again at the CP America meetup. 9/11 cemented in my mind that life is too short not to enjoy every minute of it, and not to deny myself what I have wanted to do. Thanks and luv to Kitty, Tasty, Spragga, Gabo, JonStephen, Hacker, Chula, ReginaP, and everyone else I met that was so kind and made me feel so welcome, at America and at Float. Especially as I was venturing all the way "up to the City" ALONE. You guys are great, and I had more fun with you than I have had in the entire year (almost) since!!! Just wanted y'all to know I still think about you, and am glad I got to meet you. Maybe I'll make it up to the "big City" again sometime. Til then, I will enjoy my wannabe status and live vicariously through your posts! And if anyone anticipates coming down to America's Playground, feel free to give me a shout. Blessings to all- those who have lost, those who were lost, and those who are remembering. Wannabe

nah, gabo, if it can't be you, I want no other man!!!!

Ah, so *that's* what this is all about!!! LOL

I am surprised that this hasn't come up more often her eon the sex board. I have Tried it and I like it! It does take incredible maturity to be able to participate in that lifestyle, you're right. It isn't for you if, among other things: you still equate sex with love, you feel you should be the only person who receives pleasure from you partner, you feel you should be the sole provider of your partner's pleasure. NASCA.org (I believe that is the site) has a few papers on the subject for more info

I'll be there
