8/23-8/30 or maybe to the 1st or 2nd if we like where we going.

You good folks will get a break from me and be able to take in the afternoon.

NFB 8/23--8/30 was a month ago or am I in a time warp kind of thing ?

I think he is going away from August 2023 through August 2030. Seven years. That works.

ROFLMAO!!!!!

stupid keyboard. 9/23-9/30 or maybe even the 1st and 2nd, that's September 23rd.

Good on you M8 enjoy the holiday !!

Have a good vacation. Doing anything interesting ?

Going to Miami. One of my college bud is getting married. I rented a condo unit on South Beach on the 11th floor. The tower has olympic size pool that has access to the beach, jacuzzi, sauna, steam room, workout room, game room.

My friend says South Beach has plenty of fun loving bikini babes that just want to party as long as you have the alcohol. Lincoln Road Pedestrian Mall is a great place to pick up babes or even Walgreeen and Publix supermarket, where the girls are shopping while wearing thong bikinis.

My friend also says every beach in Miami is topless. There is also a nude beach there but I am not that daring.

I hope Teddy and Wilfred and their friends don't ruin things https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/

Doesn’t sound like you are going to be Covid safe.

Covid is prolly one of the least harmful things you can catch in South Beach.

Yeah, it sounds like there's a nut loose on it.

I have the same problem from time to time.

Have a good one NFB and stay safe

We are not long back from a break in Friesland, was great to get away and do something different like teach my wife how to steer a boat

Darn bridges were kinda low 1.1m between the water and the bridge

I looked. That's like only 3.5 feet!

thank you everyone. I will be safe: got a 50 face mask pack and a 24 count box of Skyn.

the water was as deep 1.1m to 1.5m and if two of us were in the stern and pushed the throttle open then the rudder would hit the bottom, 6km/h speed limit

1.5 is 5 feet like a shallow swimming pool you are not allowed to dive in. 6 km is 3.7 miles. That's slow. I seen boating signs here in USA 5 mph speed limit.

Lol. Cover this, wrap that, feminism, #MeToo, gender fluidity, threatening hurricanes...

...hitting on bikinis at the beach in this modern day seems awfully complicated to me! Have fun and stay safe.

I was already attached at 16 (pre-driver's license and job requiring W-2) so I never had any 'wild oats' opportunities. Bah, too old-fashioned romantic anyway, I would never have scored.

Easy: big smile and pretend you are listening and agree to everything she says.

Don't forget to tell her how smart she is...

Fake it til you make it.

Aaahh, Miami. The second 'Silicon Valley' in the US

Have fun!

Did a little research and the issues on Miami's beaches are not all the same as those on a liberal college campus. On the beaches you need to be concerned with STD infected gold diggers. So, besides your best beach body (apparently the ladies' physical standards today are sky high) and game, bring plenty of cash.

Vaderini's comment above had me thinking...

Looked as some recent pics and this ain't the 80's (won't elaborate, I just live in the past). Which goes back to modern-day problems...that slight bikini bulge might not be an unusually dense unkempt 70's jungle.

Dang! Really? I don't look like Arnold Schwarzenegger. So I ain't got a chance to score?

Also be careful with your credit cards...

ALERT - while picking up girls around south beach (collins Av)

Wow! That's not nice! Thank you Mark.

Well, who knows how much of the internet is common reality, right?

It seems to me that as long as you're comfortable with copious amounts of douchery (competition by tatted-up gym rats is fierce), gangsta rap and rejection, you might do fine in the promiscuous areas of Miami Beaches. The upscale areas simply require an exotic car and bank account. This was interesting reading, but I have no idea if it's true (I prefer the family-oriented beaches of Gulf Shores and Pensacola, but it's always been with the Mrs.).

I am back! I miss everyone here!

Strange for bed to be that hi. 1st night I got up 3 am to go to bathroom and forgot it was that hi and I almost flat on my face.



I ask for couple extra towels for the beach.



Luxury shower. Showerhead so high I could barely reach it.



No idea. I didn't put my key card or my finger in it.

Bed looks like a normal height for me. A few feet off the ground is pretty typical of nicer beds.

My bed is 7 inches bottom of mattress to floor.

Well... Nice beaches?

Very nice beaches, very clean and not overcrowded with plenty of women.

It's all the dead hookers bro, did you add any to the pile?

I think Crane has been watching too much "Scarface" and "Miami Vice" recently.

I wish someone would adapt Miami Vice to 16:9 format and release a remastered version. Such a great show. Such great times...

Dead hookers? Don't understand!

I'd like to see a partial recrafting, where they reuse as much original footage as possible, but also add new scenes and effects to do away with the many limitations imposed by being an '80s T.V. show.

It would also be cool to see it become even more New Wave, Neon Noir and synthwave driven.

So now what, we have to guess???

Ok, I'll go first (the opposite of dead hookers)...

NFB gets to Miami, is introduced to the wedding party, and falls in love-at-first-sight with one of the bridesmaids who happens to be a Good Girl(TM). They hit it off immediately, have a nice romantic dinner (first evening), take a hand-in-hand stroll on the beach at sunset (second evening), then back to his room for drinks (her limit is 2 over much conversation) and some innocent making out to the modern equivalent of Journey.

Then finally he takes her home/hotel via cab, wishing that he'd bought the less expensive 3-pack which remains unopened. He’s already looking at rings.

So unlike you in my scenrio, did I nail it?

Mark posses EPS N

LOL

Like ESPN...EssentaillySomePoliticalNetwork?

I literally have not watched anything on ESPN for over 5 years. It has become an outdated and irrelevant network due to the advent of online/streaming sports services.

Looks like a veiled reference to Brian EPS N perhaps

So tell us about fun loving bikini babes NoFlyBoy.

Yeah, the ones who weren't totally engrossed in their phones...

And who don't have more silicone than a major commercial industrial site.

They all had fake boobs and yes most of them were on the phone and you say hi and they look at you like you are alien from another planet.

But in all fairness, do you look like an alien from another planet ?

He's probably better off not partaking with them anyways, as most "modern" girls are nasty with marked up skin.

Smooth, clean, unblemished pre-90s look was the best.

I don't look like Predator or those things from Aliens.

I agree with that Blastman,,Most of the young ladies I see around here look like the Sunday morning funny papers,,And they think they look beautiful..

I don't like ton of ink. Couple of tasteful tiny stars and hearts are alright. Piercing on nose, lips, eyelids, ears, navel: don't like that. This gross me out! https://business.time.com/2012/01/1...addish-earlobe-holes-can-cost-thousands/

That is not a good look on anyone. Why someone would permanently disfigure themselves, I'll never understand.

Nothing is acceptable for me. Not a single mark, nowhere. Nothing.

Clean or get out.

I seen girls and guys in public with those ear things. They think it's rave!

I think tattoos on girls can be done tastefully. But most of the time they are not haha.

Agreed. But since I don't post anonymously, I have to keep my negative opinions in check (within reason).

Another thing that happened in the 90's... "skinny" went from 80's conservative fitness to sickly ‘heroin chick’, with digital photo altering taking it to stupid levels of fakery. Just awful.

++++++++++

Back to boobies!

At least NFB was seeing reality vs. the usual Photoshop we see on the internet. Fake boobs on a beach are still better than fake *everything* in a cartoony artist conception of the female form.

While I'm fine size-wise with eraser tips on peaches, I'm not totally against boob jobs. I can understand a woman wanting to correct a deformation, or even if she feels her breasts are proportionately too small for her frame (or is completely flat chested) and wants to look/feel more womanly. I get that, but it's almost always to the extreme! Of course that's not fair to the rare naturally giant busted women to make this judgment, so I try not to, especially on a beach where even modest women let their hair down so to speak.

But then I'm a 70's/80's guy, where Farrah Fawcett was the bustiest Angel (my crush was Jaclyn Smith) and Linda Carter had a sizable rack (in her padded WW costume, obvious difference in her non-costumed scenes). But then the current WW (Gal Gadot) would likely have never been hired as a waitress at Hooters. I just don't see the famous nippley Farrah poster (who else misses Spencer's Gifts?) being a hot item post-Pamela Anderson's big cans rise to fame.

But don't get me wrong, I can still appreciate the women in David Lee Roth's "California Girls" video (1985) as much as the less curvaceous women in Van Halen's "Hot For Teacher" video (1984). It's just that my speed is more the chick at the end of Rick Springfield's "What Kind Of Fool Am I?" video (1982), which I think might be his wife (married since 1984). The 70’s/80’s had something for everyone, there was always that one or two chicks in a group who caught my eye!

Of course there's just one chick who needs to be sexy to me (and vise versa), but I enjoy comparing past vs. current. I could see where a 50's man might not have cared so much for the 80's big hair fitness look (think 20 Minute Workout w/Bess Motta and friends) or the Rock video chicks I've mentioned, although they were still pre-tatts, pre-piercings and likely had at least *some* bush. Same as my not being attracted to today's modern women (in general), not that it matters. I don’t see this changing, only getting worse (in *my* perspective).

I don't mind them if they're well done and in keeping with her culture or subculture, but otherwise they're a hard "no".

Pamela and her Baywatch girls like Yasmine Bleeth help me with puberty.

Are you sure? After all, your dream vacation was to go check out some plastic Ho's in a very plastic place.

Pay more attention to kinda cute "Judy" who works full time and goes to school also.

I went to a wedding. I am not the person who chose the city it held at. They could had the wedding in LA and ton of plastic there too.

Is this a thing, like a "Karen" who always wants to speak to the manager?

++++++++++

I'm bored. Date night canceled, that time of the month when wife is unavailable for ~4 days.

Corporate accountants call it "closing" for month-end closing, starts on last day of each month, finishes on third day of the next month when allocations are run at HQ Atlanta. But at least she now works late closings at home. Tax accountants don't have this problem I don't think, they just get crazy busy at annual tax time.

What is a Judy?

Your worst cougar nightmare!

Jody's sister.

a Yokosuka D4Y ... (this is SimHQ afterall)

Hotel elevator. What if your family is 10 people? 20 people? 50 people?

NFB turns HipsterHQ (Mijami Beetch) into an elevator placard symbolism study!

Sadly, social media yawns, as they are too busy with. OMG, WTF, I didn't know it was your sister, CNN says "reliable sources" say Kanye West is really the president.
