g_b File - Personal Advertisements

2008-12-01 Thread gay_bombay

Hi All
 
2 personal advertisements seeking mates a month are allowed on the list. It’s 
unfair to others if you post your advertisement every few days. In the past, 
many have complained that they see too many personal advertisements on the 
list. So a restriction of 2 personal advertisements per month has been imposed. 
You may, if you wish, place your advertisement in the classified section at 
www.gaybombay.info as well.

In case you want to reply to a member’s personal advertisement, kindly click on 
the person’s email address. This will ensure that your reply goes to the 
concerned person and not to entire list which is what happens when you hit the 
reply button. So please reply directly to the advertiser and not to the whole 
group in case your reply is personal.

2008-12-01 Thread gay_bombay

Hi.


I am sure you are enjoying reading the thought provoking, at times 
funny, at times informative mails and also seeing the JPGs/pictures 
that members post on this list

However, at times you may get a lot of mail and it may flood your 
email box.

If you feel flustered and feel that there are too many emails, I'd 
like to remind you that you don't have to leave just to stop us from 
clogging your inbox. 

You have the option of

1) getting your mails in digest form (however you will not be able 
to see the pictures in this format)
Daily digest ... once or twice a day, you will receive an
email -- text only -- listing all new postings ... just click on the
messages link at the top of the digest to go to the web archive to 
see any
attachments.)



2) or you can view mails directly on the web... and choose the 
option ...
you can see what's new on the website and still keep a clear
mailbox. You will never receive mail from us if you do that. YOU 
choose
when to visit us ... and you can check out what you like and can 
skip over
what doesn't interest you.


3)no email option

I hope this helps. The commands for choosing the various modes are 
listed below.

Warm Regards

g_b File - Tired of too many mails?

2008-12-01 Thread gay_bombay

Tired of too many emails from this group?  

Hi All

I know that this group has been generating too many emails. Many 
subscribers are flustered at the number of mails. Some of you might 
be thinking of leaving the group because you do not like your mail 
box to be clogged with mails.

But just in case you do not know, you have the option of receiving 
all your emails in a digest mode or you can opt for no email mode. 


That way, you can see what's new on the website and still keep a 
clear mailbox. You will never receive mail from us if you do that. 
YOU choose when to visit us ... and you can check out what you like 
and can skip over what doesn't interest you.

(Or choose Daily digest ... once or twice a day, you will receive 
an email -- text only -- listing all new postings ... just click on 
the messages link at the top of the digest to go to the web 
archive to see any attachments.)

How ?

Depending on what you opt for, you can send mail to:

Digest Mode:- [EMAIL PROTECTED]

No Mail Mode:- [EMAIL PROTECTED]

g_b File - E mail problems?

2008-12-01 Thread gay_bombay

Hi

Have you stopped getting emails from this group suddenly? It is highly unlikely 
that your name has been deleted from the list. We do not delete anybody’s 
membership until and unless the person repeatedly spams or sends 
pornographic/crude emails

 you might not be getting your mails is because  your email is on the bouncing 
list. Some members have trouble with bouncing e-mails: Messages that are sent 
out by the group cannot be delivered to their mailboxes and are sent back to 
Yahoo. This can happen for various reasons, for example, when their mailboxes 
are full, or their e-mail addresses have become obsolete, etc. Yahoo doesn't 
tolerate bouncing mails and will deactivate these persons' memberships. It 
will, however, send you a reactivation request. All you have to do is reply 
to that (once you've fixed the problem with your mailbox), and Yahoo will 
resume sending you the messages. We will also send out these requests daily.

Bounced Messages
If you subscribe to a Yahoo Groups discussion group under one of the e-mail 
options (normal or digest), Yahoo Groups will suspend sending mail to you 
after repeated attempts bounce back. To see your recent bounced messages, 
view your Yahoo Groups preferences at http://groups.yahoo.com/myprefs and 
click Bounce history for your e-mail address. For more information on 
bounced-message handling by Yahoo Groups, search Yahoo Groups help for the word 
bounce.

Why does it say my account is bouncing?
If group messages sent to your email address are returned to Yahoo! Groups as 
undeliverable (bouncing), your Yahoo! Groups account may be temporarily 
disabled. 
Messages can be returned for several reasons: 
•   Your mailbox may be full -- try deleting messages from your Inbox. 
•   Your ISP may have a backlog of email to process -- contact your ISP. 
•   Your ISP may be blocking email from Yahoo! Groups -- contact your ISP. 
In many cases, Yahoo! Groups can automatically reactivate your account once the 
delivery problem is solved. However, in some cases you will need to manually 
reactivate your account: 
1.  Visit your My Groups page. 
2.  Look for a bounce alert near the top of the page. 
3.  Click the Alert link to reactivate your account.

g_b REMINDER: Bombay Dost Sunday High: 14 Dec '08: Film Screenings

2008-12-01 Thread Vikram Phukan

Hello Everyone,

The next Sunday High will feature two contemporary classics about the  
world of male hookers as seen through the prism of literature of some  
vintage. 'My Own Private Idaho' features one of gay cinema's most  
enduring icons - River Phoenix, in a performance that essentially  
defined his career (which was cut short by tragedy).


Twist (2003)
97 min English - no subtitles
directed by Jacob Tierney with Nick Stahl, Joshua Close, Gary Farmer
A gay re-telling of Charles Dickens' classic Oliver Twist. Updated to  
current times, moved out of the poor house and onto the streets, the  
tale is told from the point of Dickens' character, Artful Dodger, now  
Dodge. The prosaically beautiful Oliver falls into the hands of down- 
and-out young men. Dodge takes the young man under his wing and  
instructs him in the unforgiving arts of drug abuse and prostitution.  
As Oliver's innocence dissolves, both young men confront inner and  
outer demons and, strangely, it is Dodge who finds he cannot escape  
his past. ✒ IMDB


My Own Private Idaho (1991)
102 min English - no subtitles
directed by Gus Van Sant with River Phoenix, Keanu Reeves, James Russo
The story follows two friends, Mike (River Phoenix) and Scott (Keanu  
Reeves), as they embark on a journey of personal discovery that takes  
them to Mike's hometown in Idaho and then to Italy in search of  
Mike's mother. Scott is based on Prince Hal, the son of the king in  
the Shakespearean play Henry IV. He is the son of the wealthy mayor  
of Portland, Oregon and claims his street behavior, which includes  
prostitution to male clients, is largely rebellion. Mike, however, is  
gay, narcoleptic and has no other means of support. The two develop a  
strong friendship that is tested by Scott's ambivalence to street  
life and his forthcoming inheritance, as well as Mike's romantic  
affection for his companion ✒ Wikipedia


Until the next time,

g_b Foot in mouth disease with india politicians..

2008-12-01 Thread summer breeze
Hi All,

No intention of starting a long and winding debate, but just making an 
observation.

Our politicians seem to have learnt quite a bit from George W Bush about how to 
say ot do terribly wrong things at a totally wrong time. There seems to be a 
competition among them to make themselves known (in a way) all over India. 
After the now famous remarks by Mr R R Patil, that such small events happen in 
big cities and the so termed disaster tourism by our CM, it was the turn of 
Kerala CM Mr Achuthanandan. He wanted to visit Late Major Unnikrishnan's house 
and his father, who turned down the CM for obvious reasons. Having lost his 
chance to score a few electoral points, he remarked 'If it had not been 
Sandeep's house, not even a dog would have glanced that way.'... 

Well well 

Shailesh
