Thrill seeking behavior?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

Someone with seven billion dollars doesn't have to go to a massage parlor for sexual relief, especially when he can be identified by another patron. Sounds like thrill seeking behavior, similar to when Hugh Grant picked up a prostitute on Santa Monica Blvd.

Hugh weathered the storm. Kraft is now a laughingstock. Imagine his rich pals.

I remember reading a story about the two Palm Beaches in the early nineties. On the coastal side is America's priciest real estate. On the peninsular are some of the seediest areas of south Florida. The wealthy denizens of Palm Beach would make the short trip across the Intercoastal to avail themselves of twenty dollar oral sex in their automobiles.

1. It's simple.

A lot of men think with their dicks. Perhaps especially men in some kind of power.

2. He's a laughingstock now, albeit a rich one.

The late night comedians will have a lot of fun with this one.

3. Yep. Southern Boulevard is a two way street.

Many years ago I used to drive across it to Palm Beach. There was a cool little newsstand there that had the NY Times.

4. I lived in Cen FL from 70-012 except for college and one year of high school.

I traveled to south Florida a lot. There are some parts of U S 1 that parallel AIA that are rough. Is it Military Trail?

5. I think so. My in-laws lived 2 houses west of the intracoastal. A block or two west of that was

another world. That was late 70's - early 90's.

6. The South Florida metro area is, like all metro areas, a patchwork.

You'll have good areas and bad areas all over the place, although typically everything along the ocean and intercoastal will be good areas.

8. Yes, Military Trail..whew! n/t

7. Realistically It isn't stupid at all.

If all he wanted was relief of tension he would be stupid to act romantically or to start a relationship which would either cause problems at home or cost much more. He was wrong but a simple hundred dollar bill with an anonymous in and out makes a ton of sense. He was in the wrong but not stupid.
