Years ago I gave Ms. Kang a Gwen Stefani CD. Never fantasized her as a Mistress though. Dannyboy

I never purchased toys anywhere else but in Manhattan. Even when I lived in Brooklyn and had many experiences there I had imported everything from the Island Manhattan. The only Babes location I ever patronized was the Soho location. I truly have little interest in the habits of others and great interest in my own habits and that of the Ladies who like to spend naughty time with me. Dannyboy

Thank you for sharing the positive results with us. I used to spend much time at the beach, mostly Brighton Beach in Brooklyn, and work on a tan. Not much information about skin cancer then. So I had my brush with skin cancer and thankful it wasn't the bad kind. We know what to do now. Dannyboy

Lonewolf: Wow. You have another challenge in front of you and you set your goal and rewards at the gates of the Fortress. I salute you. Dannyboy

Adam: Thank you for posting about your circumstances. I seemed to notice your absence with the understanding that all of the regular posters disappear from time to time, myself included. Of course I am curious about the nitty gritty details of your medical condition and have already speculated based on your narrative. Your privacy is paramount so please don't worry about my curiosity. More important is that you are on the road to recovery and very eager to get back to the place where all dreams can come true. Please be careful and listen to your body. Getting back to normal may take more time than you think but having the Fortress as a goal can't be a bad thing. In the meantime please keep us posted on your progress. Dannyboy

manclawz: The key to curing skin cancer is early detection. If the doctor did not think it was melanoma that would be a good omen. The biopsy will tell all. Years ago I had to go through the wait. It came back positive for an easily curable form of skin cancer. I posted a semi-fictional account of my last visit to a dermatologist under the topic "Temperature and It's Impact." Please let us know how it turns out while we all hope for the best. Dannyboy

Dear Ms. Kang: The philosophers will ponder your response for ages. Right now I wish I was Flash Gordon making love to Princess Aura, daughter of Ming the Merciless. Dale Arden was too much of a prude. Thinking specifically of the 1936 series. Princess Aura would be hot even today. The original is still the greatest. You may be a Mule but you are not Dumb. How many remember the Y2K panic? All computers were hardcoded with 19 as the first two digits of the year. No one anticipated that the Earth would survive to the last year of the 20th century, the year 2000. Most people got the millennium (century, decade) change wrong. Stanley Kubrick got it right with 2001: A Space Odyssey. BTB and I did not cause the problem. The servers attempted to calculate a more unfathomable quantity - "How many lies have clients told to spouses, significant others and employers to attend scheduled sessions at The Fortress and how many were ultimately unsuccessful. It's like telling the computer on the Starship Enterprise to calculate the value of PI until final resolution. By the way, no one needs a good reason to come to The Fortress for punishment. Why does one climb a mountain? Because the Fortress is at the peak!!! Dannyboy

What is a short time? Is it anything like a long time? Dannyboy

Happy Birthday. Dannyboy

Dear Ms. Zito: Words of wisdom. We share the same hopes. I tell her more often than before that I have many more yesterdays than I have tomorrows. Time is of the essence. Dannyboy.

Dear Ms. Zito: When I last proclaimed, under a cloud of pessimism, two different objectives, I noted that the opportunity for one of them had come and gone. Since then I have been sidelined with injuries and illness. She has been ill as well although neither of us has influenza. Prospects of having one of her friends participate are not hopeful just now. On the other hand she seems to be mesmerized when I explain in vivid detail how I will cane her without a safe word. She often visualizes my more intimate and kinky thoughts as if the experience is happening. Will she ever consent? I don't know? I did send birthday greetings to the former Mistress who actually experienced suspension. I thought of the goal you mentioned but didn't think to bring it up in our exchange. It seems that you are taking steps towards that goal and you probably have information that is more current and relevant at this point. Dannyboy

Ray: Actually I don't remember that particular case and I have no instant opinions. Remember Jack Ruby killing Lee Harvey Oswald. One wonders if that was the final part of a conspiracy and not merely a case of vigilante justice. Anyway I do understand the human capacity to avenge harm and brutality to a loved one. I just don't encourage it. Dannyboy

manclawz: I heard of the incident and saw it on TV. I understand this on many levels, including the position of the Judge and the decorum of the courtroom. Nasser will die in prison. He will probably be held in protective custody because he will be beaten, raped or killed in any general prison population. I do not approve the actions of the father. I think he scared the hell out of his children who were present in the Courtroom. The better route was to stand there with a resolute dignity and a strong silent contempt for the convict and not re-traumatize them. How would it serve the daughters to see their father arrested, injured or even killed? I think the father understands that now. He will not be sanctioned by the Court. Dannyboy

Dear Ms. Shankar: At the root of so many abusive situations is the economic or political power of the abuser. Often to side with the victims would involve serious damage to existing institutions such as family, religion, sports teams, political structures and businesses. Many enablers fear the greater consequences to themselves if they rock the boat. The more powerful the abuser the more viciously the accusers and witnesses will be attacked and discredited. I am old and cynical. Maybe change is coming but I know there is a very dark side to human nature. Dannyboy

Dear Ms. Li: In my younger years the curvy, busty blonde was the standard for universally accepted beauty. Thinking of Marilyn Monroe and Jayne Mansfield for instance. Dannyboy

Dear Ms. Jin: I would like to recall to everyone's attention Jeffrey Dahmer. He was killed in prison. I am suggesting that the killing was done with the collusion or active participation of the prison staff. One the one hand I would say good riddance to a monster who had no mercy for his victims. On the other hand I believe in the rule of law and our Constitutional system. It was a murder although I shed no tears for the victim. It is also a fact that, in some Native American tribes, captured enemies who deserved "special" treatment were turned over to the women because of their propensity for imaginative cruelty. Dannyboy

He got what he deserved. Having said that, there are others who can re-victimize their victims because of position, power and wealth. Maybe attitudes will change; maybe they won't. Dannyboy

In Koreatown right now and every fourth young lady looks like one of the mannequins. Brings to mind a Twilight Zone episode: The After Hours. Dannyboy

Ray: No she did not. I guess what we've got here is a failure to communicate. Dannyboy

Dear Ms. Jin: I never could accept the hypocrisy of one set of official morals and another realm of private behaviors. I could understand it better if those at the top actually practice what they preach but so often they are revealed to be exactly what they officially oppose. Anyway the Fortress is available for people to live their fantasies and satisfy their impulses regardless of their attitudes in the vanilla world. Dannyboy

Ray: Gunga Din is in my personal collection. Cool Hand Luke in my opinion is the best of the rest. Dannyboy

The topic brings to mind a history course from many years ago. The professor was German. He spoke of the Victorian era as one with a prevailing attitude of official sexual repression and prudishness. He added that during that time "there were more houses of ill-repute than at any other time in British history." Dannyboy

Dear Ms. Jin: For me to say that I learned the language(s) would be a gross misrepresentation. It would be more accurate to say that I was able to communicate with others who did not speak English as a primary language while I did not speak the primary language of the other individual. Often the other had some facility with English and I acquired some facility with his language through listening, hand gestures and facial expressions. French and Japanese were my strongest languages. Hebrew and Spanish were next. Then on occasion in various phases of my life I had some minor involvement in Italian, Portuguese, German, Yiddish, Russian, Norwegian, Cantonese, Bengali and Vietnamese. I worked alongside professional interpreters during one of my careers including one who was a very special friend. This friend was certified to translate Spanish and French and could also speak German and Italian. When still a teenager one friend was born in Israel and one friend's mother was born in Italy. I was surprised to hear that the Israeli mother conversed fluently with the Italian mother in Italian. In my experience the greatest barrier to learning a foreign language is fear and the next greatest barrier is inflexibility. Anyway I have lost over 95% of what I ever knew due to atrophy. Danny boy

Thayer... I read the part that included stepping the ladder and other parts. I love the use of language and the detailed descriptions of the activities. Reminded me of Fanny Hill and at least one other book. Reading of a young lady experiencing an orgasm and saying "Oh God, I die, aaahhhhh" is powerfully erotic. The tales of corporal punishment reflect a brutality that seems exaggerated. Reads well in fiction but in reality would seem to require first aid or serious medical attention. Dannyboy
