For the record, I leveled a priest all the way to level 70 on
WINE/Gentoo. Never had a single crash. Ventrilo on WINE works fine for

With six distinct courses etched into the New England countryside, Sterling Golf Management promotes pin-hunting recreation for Boston-area golfers of all abilities. The longest and most difficult of the six, The Shattuck Golf Club's 18-hole course kicks off with a 409-yard par 4 where players hack their way toward a green that is visually wreathed by the rising red rocks of Mount Monadnock, setting the tone for a scenic, 6,764-yard round. Groves of trees ensconce the fairways and barter over carbon dioxide at Norwood Country Club's recently renovated course, a relatively flat layout characterized by smallish greens and flanked by a lighted driving range. The newest member to the Sterling Golf Management team is the Rockland course, where 18 par-3 holes wind between tall oaks for a picturesque par-54 round. Designed in 1921 in the Donald Ross tradition is the Maynard Golf Course, a picturesque par 70, 9-hole course with a full-service clubhouse. The same sylvan makeup returns at Newton Commonwealth's course, where lush tree lines cast shadows over a creek as it snakes across the fairways of seven holes. Rounding out the grassy sextet, Chelmsford's nine-hole course takes golfers careening across 2,467 yards of narrow fairways, placing straight drives or skilled golf ball pilots at a premium.
Though most fairways and greens lie dormant during the winter chill, Rod's Golf Improvement Center's spring to life year-round. Here, golfers can land birdies and pars during rounds at famous courses vividly replicated by three golf simulators. Golfers can also fine-tune their game at driving nets or the practice putting green, which allows them to stop carefully trimming their home's carpets with scissors.
PGA-certified pro Rod Van Guilder oversees the entire operation, and zeroes in on helping golfers sharpen their skills during lessons and club-fitting services. For those looking to upgrade their gear, the center sells golf equipment and repairs broken clubs.
On May 29, 1970, the first drive flew down the fairway of the first hole at Manchester Country Club and came to a stop on the carpet-like fairways that would become its trademark. Today, the finished design first drawn up by architect Geoffrey Cornish still rolls through 165 acres of the Green Mountains, though in a slightly different form. The front nine remains intact, but the back nine has undergone significant improvements over the years. A full renovation that incorporated 34 additional acres was completed in 2003, bringing the course up to its present length of nearly 6,800 yards. In addition to a lengthy golf course, the club boasts a golf shop, four Class-A PGA/LPGA Professional instructors, two clay tennis courts, and full service dining facilities.
Course at a Glance
The ping of sharp line drives and towering drives echo over the grounds at Legends Golf, where athletes of all ages compete in rounds of miniature golf and hone swings in the batting cages or at the driving range.
Golf balls trickle down topsy-turvy tracks at the 18-hole miniature-golf course, which weaves through rock faces and tiny geysers that erupt with glee any time a player misses an easy putt. Eight target greens populate the 300-yard driving range, where new Wilson Staff Range Balls touch down after taking flight from 45 synthetic mats or 35 grass tees.
Under the vaulted roof of the batting cages, nine pitching machines send baseballs and softballs speeding toward hitters as they get the most out of every at bat and discreetly argue balls and strikes with imaginary umpires. To pass the time in between mini-golf rounds or during kids' golf lessons, guests can use Legends' wireless Internet connection free of charge.
Nestled within 164 acres of mature pine trees and hardwood forest, the secluded golf course at Quail Ridge Country Club surrounds visitors in natural splendor. Course architect Mark Mungeam of Cornish, Silva, and Mungeam, Inc., designed the fairways to harmonize with the naturally rolling terrain, where occasional stone walls line the edges of what were once farmers? fields. After teeing off, players choose carefully among their bag?s fairway woods, long irons, and golf-ball-sized blowguns as they confront a first hole whose fairway unfurls over nearly 365 uphill yards. The course doesn?t let up after that?recently redesigned as a 9-hole, par 70 championship layout, it keeps golfers on their toes right up to the end of each round.
Off the course, players gain the skills needed to meet such challenges by frequenting the chipping area or practice putting green. During lessons held in these practice spots, head teaching pro John Carco harnesses more than 15 years of experience to help students eliminate slice and perfect their swing. The country club?s family center hosts a snack bar where golfers can fuel up for a round, stash their belongings in lockers, or build ball-driving muscles at the fitness center.
Just a hop and a skip from the family center, the club?s 3,200-square-foot outdoor pool entices visitors of all stripes with its widely varied facilities. Athletes zip down 75-foot swim lanes, parents and kids splash in a baby pool with zero-grade entry, and sunbathers bask on more than 4,500 square feet of deck. On four adjacent tennis courts, serves rebound off of Har-Tru clay surfaces, and windscreens keep out distracting breezes and lost pool-goers murmuring "Marco?" Additionally, Quail Ridge is currently offering FootGolf, a combination of golf and soccer.
White pines, hemlocks, and white birches flourish on the 140 acres of New England countryside that golf-course architect Ted Manning—a Robert Trent Jones protégé—and US Women's Open champ Mary Mills sculpted into a championship golf course for Townsend Ridge Country Club. Golfers can leave breadcrumb trails to find their way back as they swing through the forested links, hitting over the stream that splits the 3rd hole's ryegrass fairway before heading uphill on a 474-yard, par-5 12th hole. The course's signature par-4 14th hole demands a cautious approach, as balls that land past the pin find themselves rolling down a steep slope. At last, with the clubhouse in sight, golfers finish up at the 18th by launching their balls over a pond to land on a double green shared with hole 9.
Although it's a daily-fee course, Townsend Ridge creates the feel of a private club with a driving range hemmed by 35 hitting stations and a pro shop that hosts two swing simulators. These let players keep in shape during wintery months by tackling digital recreations of the links at Pebble Beach and St. Andrews. For more structured practice sessions, golfers can join lessons and get professional answers as to what's the best grip for hitting out of the sand and what kind of bird lays golf balls.
Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par-70 course * Length of 6,188 yards * Course rating of 70.2 * Slope rating of 125 * Three tee options

For my master bath I was planning on a marble basketweave floor, subway tiles, and a carrara marble paneled tub. This photo is my inspiration, though I'm putting a modern spin on things with faucetry, lighting, sink and accessories. The issue is the plumber/tub installer is saying there isn't enough room (thickness) for a marble panel to meet the lip of the tub and be flush. It would probably protrude by a 1/4" or so. Will that look terrible, and should I be considering other panel options (like tile) or should I just do the marble panel? It's a Duravit D-Code tub. |

When a company has built up a substantial amount of cash reserves, especially at the small-cap level, it communicates a message of confidence. It takes fiscal oversight and discipline to cultivate those funds, and it also shows that a company may be preparing to make an acquisition. If you prefer smaller sized companies for their growth opportunities, then you may be interested in our screen today. We chose small-cap stocks with a high level of liquidity that also have projected EPS growth rates above 25% over the next five years. Use the data and graphs below to begin your own analysis to see if these companies have bigger things on the horizon.
EPS growth (earnings per share growth) illustrates the growth of earnings per share over time. The 5-Year Expected EPS Growth Rate is a long-term annual growth estimate, where the growth projections are made by analysts, the company or other credible sources.
The Current ratio is a liquidity ratio used to determine a company's financial health. The metric illustrates how easily a firm can pay back its short obligations all at once through current assets. A company that has a current ratio of one or less is generally a liquidity red flag. Now this doesn't mean the company will go bankrupt tomorrow, but it also doesn't bode well for the company, and may indicate that it could have an issue paying back upcoming obligations.
The Quick ratio measures a company's ability to use its cash or assets to extinguish its current liabilities immediately. Quick assets include assets that presumably can be converted to cash at close to their book values. A company with a Quick Ratio of less than 1 cannot currently pay back its current liabilities. The quick ratio is more conservative than the Current Ratio because it excludes inventory from current assets, since some companies have difficulty turning their inventory into cash. If short-term obligations need to be paid off immediately, sometimes the current ratio would overestimate a company's short-term financial strength. In general, the higher the ratio, the greater the company's liquidity (i.e., the better able to meet current obligations using liquid assets).
We first looked for small-cap stocks. We next screened for businesses that have expected earnings per share growth of more than 25 percent for the next five years(5-year projected EPS Growth Rate>25%). Next, we then screened for businesses that have strong liquidity (Current Ratio>2) (Quick Ratio>2). We did not screen out any sectors.

GM Jack Zduriencik backs off comments that Ichiro will return | Mariners notebook
The Mariners' general manager indicated to Fox Sports that the outfielder will return next year.
Seattle Times staff reporter
Mariners general manager Jack Zduriencik on Sunday evening backed off comments he made to Fox Sports indicating that he expects Ichiro to return next season.
Fox reporter Jon Paul Morosi wrote that Zduriencik said that he expects Ichiro to be back with the Mariners in 2013. Ichiro, who turns 39 in October, is eligible for free agency after this season.
"He's a big part of this team," Zduriencik told Morosi. "He's a franchise player here, and we have phenomenal respect for him."
But reached by the Seattle Times on Sunday evening, Zduriencik said that he has no comment on Ichiro's future beyond this year.
"I would just say what we've said from day one. We've been very consistent in saying we're not going public with anything like that," he said. "It's been our policy that whether we're discussing things or not is an internal matter."
Asked if he expects Ichiro to return next year, Zduriencik said, "What we're trying to do is play the season and see what happens."
Zduriencik did reiterate that he has no plans to deal Felix Hernandez at the trade deadline.
"I've been very consistent with this," he said "Felix is signed for two more years. He enjoys being here, and we have no interest in trading Felix."
Ryan joins leadoff carousel
The Mariners on Sunday unveiled their sixth different leadoff hitter this season, and this one carried a .182 batting average into the game.
For Brendan Ryan, it marked the 41st time in his career he's started in the one hole, but the first since he joined the Mariners last season.
"I love it," Ryan said. "It's a fun challenge. It's something I got to do a lot of in the minors, and a decent amount in St. Louis, especially against lefties. It's fun. I want to be the guy that gets things going and sparks things.
"It didn't really happen today, but if it comes up again, I'll be ready. It's definitely a fun challenge, and I'm pumped that Skipper gave me the opportunity."
Ryan had one hit in four at-bats, a two-out double in the fifth. He lined out with two runners aboard in the second inning, and hit into a double play with two on to end the seventh.
Others who have led off this year for the Mariners are Chone Figgins, Ichiro, Michael Saunders, John Jaso and, most recently, Dustin Ackley, back atop the order for his second stint.
But manager Eric Wedge decided to keep Ackley on the bench against tough Rangers lefty Matt Harrison, who was holding lefties to a .178 average this year.
"I feel like Ackley's swing is definitely heading in the right direction," Wedge said. "That's a tough matchup today against this kid, and I didn't want to disturb anything with that."
He chose Ryan, he said, because he wanted a right-hander, and Figgins hadn't played much recently.
Montero to catch soon
Wedge said that Jesus Montero, who was at DH on Sunday, is almost ready to go behind the plate following his minor concussion. He expects Montero to catch during the four-game series in Kansas City. Franklin Gutierrez, still recovering from a more serious concussion, is progressing well and will accompany the team on the road trip (as will Erasmo Ramirez, who threw a bullpen on Sunday that went well).
"He's doing good," Wedge said of Gutierrez. "He had a good look in his eyes last night (Saturday) during the game and responded well. It's a series of steps coming back from that. I really hope to ramp up his baseball activity in KC, and hopefully we can get him out soon after that, so he can go play a little bit."
Smoak staying the course
Wedge said that he continues to see progress with Justin Smoak, and was emphatic when asked if it's a consideration for Smoak to give up switch-hitting.
"Not with him at all. I don't think so," Wedge said. "There's no question in my mind he's a switch-hitter. When he gets it, he's going to do it from both sides, and do it with some strength and damage."


text: Ok I looked around the room at my boy's sports dinner last night and there were skinny teens everywhere in cute little dresses - don't we remember those days when one could pig out and not gain an ounce? Then as for the adults - there was only ONE that had a skinny figure. And did she flaunt it! I used to be like that, made it to about 30 and I remember being like her, wearing some skinny suit and flaunting (which might not be nice). By the end of the night I was so sick of her self absorbtion and started thinking the "prettier" women were more "normal" or even heavier then the skinny mini. In my head I think I"m supposed to be still skinny, I beat up on myself, but the truth is the "normal" American woman according to articles is size 12 to 14 to 16 and I think 5'4-5'6. I want to be skinny again, wear those skinny suits but healthy is better... How many really skinny adults are there when you look around? How unrealistic are we being to want to be size 7 again in our 30s, 40s etc? What is it worth?

The customer is Royalty at this fast food eatery. The Staff could not be nicer and their willingness to help is outstanding. You just feel great when you walk in or drive thru since no one could be more pleasant. Kudos to you all!
What's not to love about Chick-fil-A? They have some of the best fast food around. This one is near Gwinnett Place Mall and Sugarloaf Mills. Shop all day, then take a break and enjoy a good chicken sandwich or cold lemonade. Great service here, as is in all stores.
Typical, good Chick-Fil-A. Service is always great and the food is good, just like CFA. The location is a little awkward, as it's hard to locate.
I just love a Chick-fil-a no matter where it is. Traveling on a business trip and made a quick stop for a bite on the way. The restaurant was extremely clean and staff was very friendly and helpful. I was so surprised with such a young staff. The food of course was up to the Chick-fil-a standard. I can't leave... More
To be fair I haven't been to a bad chick fil a. We have them back home and love it always nice employees and great food. Food was up to the par we are used to for chick fil a. Service was fast and employees were nice. Above all they didn't forget my chick fil a sauce I requested! :)
Just had the privilege of waiting in line for 25 minutes of the drive thru line. Guess what, this restaurant ran out of chicken. Employees could care less when we ever got either. We've been going here for 13 years but won't be going back.
Pay no attention to how long the line is. This location takes orders and payments via iPad during peak times and the kitchen churns out food like you wouldn't believe! They have never gotten my order wrong :)
The staff made me feel like I was welcomed. Food was hot, fresh and brought to my table. Milkshake was wonderful. Great value from a tremendous company. Enjoy the Christian music they play.
Oh well I really liked the food during the summer I lived in Duluth, and people often laugh at me when I tell them I went in dressed as a cow to avail of one of their deals, but then, people generally laugh at me anyway, so the delicious chicken helps cushion the blow of my pitiful, pitiful existence...

Ferrania Solaris Chrome 100 - A Toxic Link to the Future
There always has to be a reason or motivation to write a film review. Sometimes it's the sheer excitement about a great series of pictures or a rare find. In the case of the Ferrania Solaris Chrome, it is an epic turnover in the current photo film industry. With their recent statement to be releasing a new slide film, Ferrania made most of analogue film aficionados rub their eyes in happiness. So it's time to go back to the future with the Ferrania Solaris Chrome 100. -
Imation Chrome 100 - Closing a Ferrania Trilogy
Ferrania came out with new print and slide films and I am jumping up and down with joy. For this reason I just made a review about the old Ferrania Solaris Chrome. It's said, that this new slide film has an emulsion which was derived from the 3M Scotch Chrome 100. For this film, I made a review already a few months back. But I think there is one last film, which falls into the same range and same emulsion. So to make the film trilogy complete I will introduce the Imation Slide 100. -

The Big Ferrania Solaris 200 Review: Cross it, Redscale it, Do Whatever You Want!
I ordered myself a big bunch of Ferrania Solaris 200 films. The films I got have only 12 pictures per roll (must be the reason why they were so cheap), and since then, I always use them for testing. I did nearly everything to this films (overexposing, underexposing, pushing, pulling, redscale, cross-processing in E6), and I now want to present you the results. -

Footaction really hit the right nerve in the sneaker community when they opened Flight 23 in New York City earlier this year. And with plans to expand that model to Chicago and other destinations in the near future, Jordan-specific brick and mortars are certainly a visible business model. However, though, one thing Flight 23 doesn't do is play to the purist of Jordan heritage.
Cheap Jordans For Womens
Artwork, memorabilia, original sneakers, all things that true Jordan aficionados not only want to see, but want to explore further. You may remember Calvan Fowler from when he was filming a Jordan documentary in years past called "Jordan Heads,"

More reviews by christiewhitmer
Started using the new Dream Products eye cream - Eye Dream Lift and am so hooked. I love that it is a natural product, made by a small woman-owned company and the product really works. I have seen a very nice improvement in lines, darkness and puffiness in about 1 week. I highly recommend this and a little went a long way.
More reviews by pretty_wannabe
This one is called "eye dream 3-in-1 with A,B,C,D,E,aloe,Q10,tea,borage oil, pet, jelly base. I tried all the Dream products and this one is my favorite eye cream to use. the only down side is, its in a jar (I always prefer in tube form if its possible) Other than that it is a very nice texture. This did not erase existing wrinkles, but it helped prevent new ones from coming.
Very watery - didn't do much to hydrate my undereye skin. I don't think it did much at all, actually.

I bought this product with high hopes. While it was very good dealing with Denise and the products are affordable, the eye cream did nothing for me at all.

More reviews by flawdperfecti0n
I purchased a generous sample size of this (0.5 oz for $3.50), with added caffeine, and have been using it every night for a month. While it hasn't really done anything for the puffiness under my eyes, it has gotten rid of the dark circles, which I'm really grateful for. (I don't get much sleep, so that could account for the former.) It's very hydrating, and although the product is unscented, I still think it smells really nice (fresh botanicals?). The packaging is simple, and as everyone else has stated before, the customer service is wonderful.
after the good reviews I have seen about the dream products I though I'd give the face dream w/spf 15 and eye dream night a try.
eye dream night, I am using it during the day as well as my skin is dry and I have devolped fine lines around my eyes. this product temporarily plumps the eye area and moisturizes but by mid day my lines seem deeper than before. it is not changing the look of the eye skin at all. the clinique face lotion seems to hydrate better than this eye cream.
the positive is that it didn't irritate my skin or smell bad but it doesn't really work either
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I so wanted to like this because Denise was a real doll. But I can't lie to myself about a product despite great customer service - it was just an ordinary eye cream. It hydrated my eye area, that's it. No difference in lines or dark circles after 4 months of usage. In fact, because of it's emollient nature, it made my eye bags more visible than ever. Sigh... still seeking the HG.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is a very basic eye cream. I like the simple ingredients and the natural, pleasant scent. Denise was very nice and even shipped to Taiwan for me. The cream absorbs very easily and is very gentle for the eye area. I sometimes use it to remove makeup smudges with a q-tip. The packaging is, well, very basic but practical. I never expect an eye cream to erase fine lines and dark circles because it is just not possible. This cream moisturizes well and does well under makeup and that's good enough for me. Will repurchase when I have a good list of things I want from Denise.
Although the customer service at Dream Products is admirable, I was not terribly impressed by any of the products, particularly the eye cream. It didn't seem to rub in properly, and after a week of use I noticed significant puffiness. Perhaps I just happened to be allergic or overly sensitive, so this product might be worth a try considering its low price and kind purveyor.

I have several Opuntia diademanta (they have 2-3 inch long spines that are soft and flexible as thick paper - not at all painful, but look fearsome). I also have some Rhipsalis pilocarpa,Agave americana glauca (blue) pups, as well as a number of Lithops (aucamiae & salicola) & Haorthias (cymbiformis & pumila).
I am looking for Sedum (aka Rhodiola) rosea & Agaves: amer. 'variegata' with gold margins, A. parryi, A. stricta; Orthophytum 'Copper Penny' & any sempervivums, but especially S. 'Borisii'. Check out my trade lists - they're extensive. Tempt me! |

4 or 6" BDS suspension for 08 Tacoma
I have an 2008 Tacoma 4dr, and looking to put a 4" or 6" bds lift on it. I currently have a 2" leveling kit with 33x 11.5 MT ATZ tires, on 17x 9 XD hoss wheels. Does anyone have any suggestions on which size to go with? Can you run 17" wheels on bds systems?
Hey man, did you ever find out if you could fit 17's after? When I ordered my lift the only kit notes that come up are that you need 4.5" of backspacing so I went and ordered my my rims and tires in 17" but I'm getting the impression that they won't fit. It would be brutal if I had to send those back and wait on 18's now.
As far as I've been told 18s in the minimum size wheel you can go with. Bds told me it conflicts with the tie rod and the top of the ball joints. Most lifts that I've researched require an 18". Did you go with a 4 or 6" lift? What size tires?
I went with the 4" because I thought I might still get the full articulation where is was drop bracket but I didn't want to go as big as a 6" and have it be too tippy. My truck is my daily driver but I still want to do some off roading. I had 17's that were almost here and then I had to get them sent back and now I'm waiting for them to get back before they will send out my 18's so I'm just waiting all over again now. My new wheels are 18x9.5 pro comp 5001 and my tires are pro comp xtreme a/t 325/60/18
Any updates bro? Photos?:popcorn: |
Very soon, I finally got my wheels in and so I'm hoping I can have it all put on next weekend. The wife and I are planning on building a house so its just a matter of whether the funds are there or not. Any idea how to come up with 600$ really quick? Lol
Jk.... All kidding aside that sounds awesome! I completely understand that lol. I just got married earlier this year. I'm in apartmentville right now and hate it, but I'm not sure where my job is taking me, so no need to buy until we get word of that. Good luck with your house purchase! Make sure you take advantage of the first time home buyer tax credit! |

@ EJMichaels: That birthday cake is hysterical. Thanks for posting it.
@ EJMichaels: That birthday cake is hysterical. Thanks for posting it.
Hi Guys
I've not been on these forums for a good while but so glad I returned. This thread is really interesting (and great pics). I do have a foot fetish - oddly enough I hated feet until puberty and then it totally flipped the other way. Maybe because I started seeing guys who were barefoot as exposing a part of their body that should be hidden, I started to find that quite intimate (as if they were showing something that they shouldn't). I know that makes no sense but I can't explain it.
As for what it is about feet for me - I'd say it was the look, the shape of them (as I can get aroused by pics not just the real thing). However on here guys either seem to like clean or dirty feet. I differ here as I like clean and well kept feet (unkept feet are a turn off) but I do like their natural odour as well. So clean but with a fresh scent is my thing - post workout etc.
People seem to think of feet as gross and can react negatively when you tell them of your fetish (online mainly as I haven't outed this side of me to many in real life). However my argument is that people into cocks aren't into dirty or un-cared for cocks and people who are into chests aren't into man breasts so why think people into feet like corns and blisters etc.? Like the OP says - feet get a bad press.
Anyways - great post (i'll stop gabbling now). Feel free to PM me if you wanna chat more.

WISDOM is the Knowledge you've gained ... After you could have used it! _Me
Awesome pics as usual Kyanimal! Absolutely love this thread.
My partner has recently started letting me worship his feet during sex, after finding out I like them. Doesn't do anything either way for him, but really gets me going to kiss his soles, take his toes into my mouth and slide my tongue between them. The aroma of his feet after a day at the office is sublime too, not rank or unpleasant but musky and arousing.
So nice to be able to put fantasy into reality!
Hey, salvia!
WELCUM to JUB!
Nice Post!
I find it difficult to understand that your paying attention to his feet doesn't do at least a little something for him!
Just reading the way you described it, and imagining doing it, or what it would feel like to having it done, certainly did something for Me!
Too many of us take our feet for granted, and don't fully realize what an awesome source of Pleasure they can be.
Even just seeing them can be intriguing.
Keep smilin'!!
WISDOM is the Knowledge you've gained ... After you could have used it! _Me
The images that you have all posted are so hot. I would like to post some images myself, but I do not know how to. I have read the tutorial on how to attach images to posts, but for some unknown reason, every time I attempt to, it won't allow me. I keep getting an Error 500 notice, whatever that means. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I could really do with some help.
^there are several ways to attach pics.
are you doing it with pics from your computer?
Maybe ask a moderator in the mods forums.
Happy belated bday Chaz.
Yes, I am trying to attach pictures from my computer, but I have also tried attaching pictures directly from the internet using URLs, and I have had no luck with that either. I will try asking the same question in the mods forums, and see whether they can help me. Thank you for the advice.
That's exactly how I feel about foot fetishism, too. I've always thought that seeing bare feet, in a way, is kind of synonomous to seeing nudity, and most people find nudity sexyually arousing (at least in some way lol).
As for other people not getting it, I find it a little odd nowadays. It's surely one of the most - if not THE most - common fetishes? I mean, a lot of the 'vanilla' porn studios (don't mean that in a bad way, just non fetish specific studios) feature foot worship fairly frequently. Corbin Fisher, mostly. Plus, I find it comical that a lot of people who maybe think feet are gross or whatever would have no qualms with something like rimming. If you get all technical and specific about sex or sexual acts, virtually any of it could be found gross in some way lol.
Those sound like the same type of people that claim feet do nothing for them, and yet they'll spend hours, and mucho bucks, on shoes!
And, ET, thanks for the belated b-day wishes!
I do prefer my guys barefoot ...
Seems to increase they're "vulnerability" a notch, too.
Keep smilin'!!
WISDOM is the Knowledge you've gained ... After you could have used it! _Me
I agree - it seems more and more "mainstream" - even in advertising and photo shoots etc - lots of guys are seen barefoot when the context doesn't always necessitate it. Despite this, there is still very little opportunity to discuss and share my love of guys' feet. This is a great thread and I'm glad I have returned to these forums. I may even take a pic of mine to share...
Yusuke's got new feet pictures from a magazine and they are to die for.
His toes are so long and thin. His sexy feet so veiny. Like just oh my god, I just want gag on them. Like him just plowing me in the ass with his foot covering my mouth.
^they are sexy
I never had the 'ew!' reaction from anyone, but I've had a couple of guys seem really confused before. Fetishes are confusing for those who don't have them, but it seems like feet are near the bottom of some unwritten 'fetish hierarchy'. I mean, they're both body parts, yet you might get a very different reaction from a guy if you said "I love your feet" rather than "I love your biceps".
That said, I think that having this fetish does have it's upsides, even if we tend to forget them:
1-We get to see feet more than non-fetishists get to see dick
2-Celebs are more likely to do barefoot scenes/photoshoots/candids, than nude scenes/shoots
3-You get to see feet, and thus get a lusty thrill, just about anywhere- on the street, at the mall, at friends houses, on the bus, etc
4-It's a low-risk form of sexual activity
5-If you're into socks too, then 'borrowing' a cute friend's socks provides amazing solo sessions. You can't do that with his abs (not without risking arrest, anyway)
My husband and I are both feet lovers, and one of my favorite experiences was at a get together on a friend's patio. One guy (who i already thought was cute) was barefoot and sat opposite me, with his feet stretched out toward me under the table. I had the most amazing view for something like 3 hours. It was exquisite torture. He had no idea what he was doing to me and i loved it. My husband was jealous, not because i was lusting for this other guy, but because i got to see and he didn't.
^ Excellent post, Marc!
And, yes, I agree with everything you've said.
For example, Hands are just as powerful, sensual, and intriguing, as Feet are, however we don't get to see Feet ALL the time. Whereas bare Feet are not on any "Verboten" list, we don't get to see them all that often. Therefore, when we do, that rarer sight can be all that more tantalizing.
ALL Feet are certainly not a sight we might find enjoyable, though. It all depends on our own preferences as to who's Feet we might find interesting. However, when they are viewable, there are some Feet we just can't help but enjoy staring at, perhaps salivating over, and we'd like nothing more than to get the opportunity to Play with them.
Here are some more Feet that I Love seeing. (The fact that the Guys also happen to be Naked is just an added Plus!)
Keep smilin'!!

hot feet ar hella sexy. I know I like having my BIG size 12's kissed, licked, and worshipped!
^ Just like everything else, SIZE, though Impressive, is not always the main deciding factor in what might be considered HOT!
However, I'm quite Thrilled that You fully Enjoy the Sensual Aspects of Your FEET!
Got any pics of those "Puppies"?
I like the idea that You would Enjoy having them Played with! And, I'm thinkin' I'd certainly Like to MANipulate them, if given a chance!

John Lennon famously said, "Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans." That's beautiful, but to me, life is more like what happens between thinking about what I will be eating next. And so, on that note, whether you're killing time dreaming of what you'll be eating on your lunch break or where you'll be stopping for dinner on your way home, here is a list of items that look like scrumptious food to fuel your imaginations and whet your appetites. Eat your hearts out!

I Don't Like Taking Dumps at Other People's Houses
There, I said it.
But even though I don't like doing it, I realize that I can't always predict when nature will call. And when it strikes at an inopportune time, like say, when I'm at your house, I've got to decide whether to use your facilities or, quite literally, suck it up. My decision hinges on a "perceived level of comfort" that I determine through a process that involves something I like to call "calculated risk assessment".
Allow me to explain:
If I get that uncomfortable crapping-soon feeling at your house, the first thing I'll usually do is ask where the bathroom is, "because I have to wash my hands." I may in fact be washing my hands, but I'm also scoping out the goods in the bathroom to see whether or not I want to risk letting it all hang out at your house.
When I'm in your bathroom, here's what I'm checking out:
Toilet I usually take a pee in the toilet and flush. During this time I observe a number of things. Is this a low-flow toilet? What kind of flushing power does it have? Note: if it can't take down my yellow, it ain't taking down my brown. I also take stock of any objects, like knickknacks or tissue boxes, that might be perched on the back of the toilet. In the event that I need quick and immediate access to the internal flushing mechanism, I like to think out in advance what kind of an effort this will require. |
Sink I look to see if the sink is in close proximity to the toilet. Ideally, I should be able to reach the faucet and turn the water on while still seated on the can. This is so I can sporadically turn on the water to mask any splashing noises that might occur while I'm doing my business. |
Ceiling Fan This is key to making me feel comfortable enough to crap in your bathroom. The Ceiling Fan provides two essential functions necessary for a stress-free poo. First off, it is a fan that sucks foul odors from the bathroom. Secondly, it makes noise - which can prevent you from hearing the grunting, groaning, farting, and splashing noises that I'm making. Note: If you don't have a fan, you better have a window. If you don't have either, I'm sorry, but I'm just not gonna be able to use your bathroom to make a deposit. |
Heat Lamp It is very important that I don't mistake a Heat Lamp for a Ceiling Fan. They both make noise, which is good, but as we've learned, a Ceiling Fan also sucks away foul odors. A Heat Lamp simply bakes the odor, thus exacerbating the problem. Note: Using a Heat Lamp solely for its noise making ability while using a window, or other device (to be discussed), to eliminate baked butt-smell, is acceptable, but not ideal. |
Matches I'm always pleased when I see a book of matches on the back of the toilet. I don't know how lighting a match nullifies poop-stench, but I don't question it too much for fear it will one day stop working. Note: Always flush matches. Do not put them in the trash can or the fact that you're dumping in someone else's house may suddenly be the least of your problems. I learned this hard way and please believe me when I tell you that you really don't want to be frantically trying to extinguish flames and frantically trying to pull your pants up at the same time. |
Air Freshener Air Freshener is completely worthless. If I see this in your bathroom, it tells me one thing, and one thing only: You like the smell of shit-covered flowers. If this is the case, I'll be happy to oblige, but personally I'd rather smell the foulest poo-stink than some of the so-called air "fresheners" out there. |
Toilet Paper I check to see that there is, in fact, toilet paper currently on the roll. Whether the paper comes off the roll "over" or "under" is irrelevant as long as there is ample supply. I might check under the sink, etc. for extra rolls just to make sure I'm on the safe side. I don't want to find out mid-crap that you're out of toilet paper. I also don't want to shuffle across the floor with my pants around my ankles and crack the door so you can hand me an extra roll because I've gone through the current supply. I don't think you want this either. |
Plunger My single greatest fear in life is clogging a toilet in somebody else's house and finding myself plunger-less. This fear is most likely the direct result of the time when I clogged a toilet in somebody else's house and found myself plungerless. (This was on a first date with a hot chick and I ended up having to get very creative with a two-liter bottle of coke... nevermind, it's too painful to think about.) I think it goes without saying that the only thing more embarrassing than taking a crap at someone else's house, is sheepishly emerging from the bathroom to ask the host if they own a plunger. A plunger is a must, people. Put it next to the toilet or under the sink or anywhere in the bathroom for that matter. I'll find it if I need it. Believe me. |
Reading Material At home, I often times get comfortable on the throne with a good novel. I sometimes read many chapters and stay in the bathroom for ridiculously long periods of time. One time, I swear to God, I spent three full hours in the bathroom reading Ayn Rand's, "The Fountainhead". You do not want me in your bathroom for that long, trust me. But please, some magazines and such would be nice. Something that's easy to read and not too long - Readers Digest is perfect. Anything pornographic is a bad idea. One time, I was dumping at someone's house and they had a "Kid's Guide to Anatomy" complete with large, full-color illustrations. I read all about the excretory system while I was excreting... and it blew my fucking mind. |
I'll tell you why.
When I am not able to release my bowels, I get tense, nervous, standoff-ish, irritable, sweaty, etc. In other words, I am no longer the life of the party. When I become an introvert, it can have a real detrimental effect on the social scene in your house.
Case in point: One time I was at an apartment shared by three girls. They fed me Thai food which--surprise!--made me have to shit. Badly. Unfortunately for these three girls (and other house guests), when I went into their bathroom to "wash my hands" I came to the conclusion, through "calculated risk assessment", that the "perceived level of comfort" in their bathroom was FAR below my acceptable standards.
The net effect was that, not only was I unable to shit, but in the eyes of most of the people in the house, I became "no fun."
Well I got news for you - it's awfully hard to be "fun" when every poke, tickle, and hug has the potential to unleash a gaseous, party-stopping fury.
Look, I think we can all agree on the fact that there's nothing like your own toilet, an empty house, and all the free time in the world... which is why it should be common courtesy to provide guests in your home with a "foreigner friendly" environment in which to take care of business.

REGINA - A whole lot of burly stage hands at Regina's Mosaic Stadium are on a strict diet this week, thanks to Paul McCartney.
The former Beatle and rock legend is playing an outdoor show at the stadium Wednesday night.
McCartney has long been known as a staunch vegan and a vehement supporter of animal rights.
He even travelled with his then-wife Heather Mills to northern Canada to protest seal hunting practices in 2006.
As part of the deal to bring McCartney to Regina, everyone working on the staging for the show is getting a taste of how he lives.
Evraz Place vice-president Neil Donnelly says that means the workers are being served vegetarian meals.
"I think the bigger you get the more you want things done your way," Donnelly says. "So if it means travelling with your own folks to take care of that, they can do that."
Donnelly says so far the workers have enjoyed the meals.
"Obviously there's a few jokes flying around about people ordering pizza," he laughs.
McCartney played Winnipeg on Monday night and his Regina show is his last until November.
