Yes...1998 movie starring Robert De Niro and Jean Reno Good movie...one of my favs too Likely I'll be watching it today RG

Well today was doing not much at all so I watched a few movies instead LOL I watch three Sean Connery movies yesterday, today watched Sean Connery JB movie From Russia With Love....IMO the best Bond movie ever Then on Netflix watched the following (worth a look) Widows Papillon (an ok remake of the Steve McQueen Dustin Hoffman movie)...not quite as good, but not bad Peppermint (it's not about mints LOL) Just a nice shoot 'em up vengeance pic...just entertainment On the list to watch... Argo Ronin A Before Bedtime Rambling RG

Right now I'm watching A Bridge Too Far to be followed by The Longest Day (granted Sean Connery's role in TLD is not major)...then maybe Dr. No and From Russia With Love. Yes over the years I've collected more than my share of DVD's (all of the Sean Connery James Bond) alot starring Sean Connery 🙂 If looking for some shows to watch on Netflix (not Sean Connery) the mini series The Queens Gambit is worth a watch. The Front Runner (about Gary Hart) is worth a watch too if you like political movies Oh and trivia...both Sean Connery and Gert Frobe (aka James Bond and Goldfinger) first were on the beaches of Normandy in the Longest Day A Rambling Over Cup Number Three RG

Taradiddle Fisherman's tale exaggerating the size of the fish he caught. Especially if the fish wasn't kept. No I don't taradiddle about the ones I've caught LOL🙄 A rambling RG

Highlight of the Day today is slipped under my door was a Rent Reduction Variance from the Landlords. Using Greek lingo...aka it was written in accounting speak LOL couldn't decipher whether it was good news or bad news. After asking it's good news...getting money back, to the tune of $162.14 Bad news, didn't send me a cheque, instead my rent gets reduced next month by $162.14 Good news though, I pay my rent the same day as I have my date so the money can be put to better use (patching up my injuries from tripping and falling from continually getting weak in the legs from excitement LOL) An Excited With Anticipation Money And Date Wise Rambling RG

Back a few weeks ago got this text saying dinner reservations (for a date ) cancelled until further notice. This was when the COVID 19 restrictions were reinstated. So date postponed Well thinking about it...both of us, the lady and I, came up with an alternate date for our date. Even if restaurants still closed (a possibility) there are two options for dinner possible. So with that said the highlight of the day is hotel reservations have been made for our date A rambling in anticipation of a date with a beautiful lady. RG

Spaghetti with meat sauce The meat sauce homemade and cooking away in the Crock Pot as we speak. Should be ready about six o'clock The spaghetti alas isn't homemade LOL...it's Catteli's but it'll do Mouth watering now A hungry rambling RG

On Netflix Trump An American Dream Dirty Money (episodes Slumlord Millionaire and The Confidence Man...actually the whole series) Get Me Roger Stone Half Tongue in Cheek and Half Serious...Pretty F*cking Scary Actually A Sorry Not Sorry Rambling RG

My physiotherapy session today...fortunately my insurance covers most of it so I submitted my claim and should have most of the money directly reimbursed into my account in a day or two And after physio I got groceries, I have a hankering for spaghetti so tomorrow I'll be making spaghetti with meat sauce A rambling RG

Not a movie but watching the series "Halt And Catch Fire" a fictionalized account of the start of the PC business. Slow start but now it's got me LOL (I'm now on Season 1 Episode 9) Detroit about the 1967 Detroit riots and the murders of three African American men by police The Final Year A documentary about President Barack Obama's final year in office A Morning Rambling While Watching Halt And Catch Fire Over Cup Number One RG

Picked up one of my prescriptions today On the way home stopped at the grocery store to top up on a couple things...got a treat or two for myself too Now I'm a few cents lighter but pension in on Wednesday RG

A couple yesterday on Netflix May not qualify as new (as in a new release) but it's my first time watching them The Girl In The Spider's Web (sort of a sequel to The Girl With The Dragon's Tattoo)...this movie requires a little more close attention, so I'll have to watch again laptop set aside LOL The Bank Job And a few days ago I did it...fourth time watching but this time no laptop LOL...Lawrence Of Arabia...I think time wise it's the longest movie I've watched at 3hours 47 minutes. A good movie but fair to say a chore to watch too A rambling RG

Great interview Allie. Thank You for sharing with us RG

Just finished watching "The Trial Of The Chicago Seven" on Netflix A 2020 movie, originally intended for movie theatres but because of coronavirus it is streaming on Netflix instead A good movie, I recommend it A rambling RG

I'm going to stay in the positive lane because after ten years only twice (two times too many no matter how many years) was I fleeced...and only seven (including those two times) did I have a bad date. Meaning for me overall this lifestyle has been a positive experience. But there was one bad date experience..... Well a picture is worth a thousand words..... A Friday morning laugh everyone LOL A Lighthearted Rambling RG

Guess What???...Yup Time For Cup Number Two Nice Way To Be Reminded Though Thanks A Morning Rambling RG ☕

It sure sounds strange, and no it's not a funny practical joke, it's something that hurts someone's livelihood...yes this lifestyle is for companions their livelihood, their source of income to pay bills, rent, mortgage etc etc etc. You'd have to be pretty sick to do that. How'd you like it if the boss calls you in to your job for OT and once you get there, there isn't any work to do? Closest analogy I can come up with And if it's other companions why would you do something to hurt another lady? And yes, you'd think companions most of all would know stunts like this hurt each other. It's malicious and short sighted to say the least Clients when booking, besides providing screening info can also pay the lady a deposit (or in full) in advance. That way the lady (especially in the case of a new client) knows he's a genuine client, and not going to be a NCNS. Bonus is the business part of the date is looked after before the date even begins (I've already paid three ladies in full for dates that have yet to be scheduled because of the current covid climate...but you'll read about those dates later in the reco forums 😉) Clients (and possibly some companions too) need to stop playing games like this. This lifestyle is, well can and should be a mutually beneficial lifestyle. NCNS "games" benefit no one, not companions nor client A rambling over cup number one RG

Got a phone call from my doctor this morning. The results of my MRI (done on Friday) are in. The news...torn meniscus. Torn meniscus you say, how is that a highlight of the day. Now I'm getting referred to a specialist to see what can be done, after over a year of a knee in pain (normally on a scale of 1-10 the pain is somewhere around 7-9, couple times 10 a good day 5-6...Shouldn't pain level be 0 ???) finally doctors really believe I have a knee injury. Hopefully the knee gets fixed, whether scoped or replaced I still don't know but it'll be better than having to use a cane to walk This is the best Thanksgiving (day late) ever LOL A rambling RG

Yesterday it was a roast chicken (instead of Thanksgiving Day turkey) with baked potato. Today cooking all day in the slow cooker homemade chicken soup...about to put the noodles in a pot of water on the stove My mouth is watering as I write this A rambling RG

Thanks Waterat for also agreeing to be interviewed. These interviews I must agree show that we all aren't the stereotypical men that society think of in this lifestyle but instead we're looking for companionship. Good interview Waterat, and Lydia

A few on Netflix some good and some fair Christine Inheritance Silence Of The Lambs Beirut Free State Of Jones Murder On The Orient Express The Coldest Game Valkyrie Pine Gap (series) A Rambling While Watching Christine RG

On the way to the hospital (don't worry, it was for my MRI long overdue) I deked by the cheese factory and picked up salsa cheese, jalapeno & red chili cheese (not for kids), and mozzarella with onion, oh and a bag of fresh curd for dinner RG

He was nominated earlier but not picked so I'd like to nominate Phaedrus for October Member Of The Month. He's one of the CERB members I remember from my early days here, for his thoughtful wise posts. He had something wise to say back then, and he still is posting wise things now. Definitely a positive member of this site and deserve Member Of The Month A Rambling RG

Seeing as I know nothing about business (guess that's why I didn't make any money on my paper route as a kid LOL) but I recall a thread (on CERB of all places) I thought I'd post the link here https://www.lyla.ch/topic/10838-slow-times-in-this-business-ever-wonder-what-causes-them/ I remember this thread when I was just a wee newbie both to CERB and this lifestyle. Thread was informative then and now A Rehashed Rambling RG
