Not your father's Hyatt

I've stayed in a Hyatt Regency hotel in suburban Detroit several years ago and it was an excellent hotel in every way. The Hyatt at the Arcade was a big deal because it brought the Hyatt brand name to the city, but it looks nothing like the sleek, modern Hyatts people may be used to. It's located on one end of the old Arcade,which is an interesting historic structure to visit, but is not a high-class shopping mall. People mostly visit the Arcade for the food court (popular with office workers in the neighborhood), but other than a few tiny stores, there's not much to do there but gawk at the Victorian-era decor. It is not the lap of luxury. If you are looking for a traditional first class hotel experience, stay at the Renaissance.

Chasers delite

Old hefty men need love too, and this is the place to find it. No younger guys (by younger I mean under 40). No hot guys. Flab and rolls of fat are the thing here. Not bears but chub- super size style. Back in the day- and I can remember back in the day as in the late 90s, Cleveland's bathhouse scene rocked. The old Flex and Club Cleveland were wall-to-wall men with many hot sexy studs. The 20 somethings today have no idea what it was like then. Flex is not worth your money, your time, or your health. When you scrape what's left of the same-sex population in this city and drop them in Flex, you're not going to have the blue ribbon winning bunch. Save yourself the shame and possibly a visit to the Free Clinic and dont go to Flex.

everyone's a hater (almost)

Some guys think they're so cool. Bars are the same everywhere. Don't diss 'our' bar. Whatever. All you girls who think you're so hot, why don't you get up off your barstool and talk to someone for a change instead of congratulating yourselves on how pretty you are and how boring other guys are. I looked at 'Wolf's' profile and he's a damned good looking guy. Funny thing, these good looking guys make the rounds of the bars but usually go home alone. I wonder why. And the guys who think the bars are always so lonely---but they never strike up a conversation with someone they don't know. No wonder the bars are boring. The bars are dives where bartenders serve drinks. The bar is what you make it to be. That's all there's to it. Yes there will be ugly men, there will be obnoxious drunk ass queens. But most guys aren't like that. You want a change? Cut the attitude. That goes for out of towners and the regulars and the news guys checking out the Hawk or wherever. You want a change, be the change. Not that difficult, unless you're a fake.
