Title: Romance vs.  clean water...
Post by: Bama on October 17, 2006, 02:09:39 pm
Ok, most of you are going to get a laugh at of this, but I am serious.....
Let's just say that someone I know...uh, a friend, that's right, a friend just got a big new 650 gallon LA Spa and "my friend"  and her husband celebrated the arrival of their spa by having LOTS of....  uh,  romance, ok?  Woo Hoo!  ;)   ;)
Now, "my friend" wants to know if the water has to be dumped?
If so, should the water  be dumped everytime there is, uh....romance?  
I know "my friend" doesn't want to be flooding the neighborhood with regular tub draining.  So, does anyone know what I can tell "my friend" concerning keeping the water clean?

Also, why can't you go from Bromine to Chlorine?  
Which one is best for ...romance active tub? :-* :-* :-*

Spa info:  LA Spa Paradise H-2,  650 gal, 3 pumps, 3-washable filters,  textured shell.
(I think the "H" in Paradise H-2 stands for Hormonal)  LOL ;D

Thanks,
Bama

PS:  My friend's name is Trixie   ::)   ::)

I will probably get this thread locked or moved because I'm not afraid to answer it.   :)

Romance happens often in our tub... however there is a no 'swimmer rule' in effect, so at which time 'swimming' may occur the romance is finished in a different method in which to not yuckify the tub.  I also add a little extra chlorine than I normally would.

You Rock Oh Bama!

Let's talk organic material here for a moment.  If I suspected a virus, I would not engage in any activity that would release it into my spa.  Assuming no virus, you have to use a sanitizer/oxidizer to break down the organic material and kill any "bad stuff".   This is basic spa sanitation 101.  As long as you are watching and testing your water carefully, I don't think you should be dumping it after every soak.

This oughta be good reading for the rest of the afternoon! ::) ;D

Other than abstaining, I'm clueless as to an answer. But than again, I'm envious of a stiff wind. ;D

Please have Trixi call me. I need to talk with her one on one.  ;)

Actually, and to be a complete adult here, unless there were signigicant amout of bodily fluids introduced into the water, then sanitizing the tub should be fine.  After all we are talking about organic matter. The only concern I'd personaly would have is to ensure the Trixi's partner is  usm... dosen't um....let's just say have it would be best if   he was "discrete"   A small amout should be a problem  but it's 's just gross. But Chlorine and good filter  should take care of the casual indescretion.

Now, if trixi is using exotic lubes, then that can cause other water problems....

Pick out the swimmies, hit with chlorine and no shower caps for protection - cholrine could eat the showercap up!

If the swimimes make it to the filter, clean the filters off with a hose (make that garden hose unless your refering to romance in the garden as well  ;), then it's the hose that goes onto the spigot) like you would if there clarifier was used.

I'm glad you're friend is ENJOYING their your new tub!!! 8-)

We found a 100% effective solution for the "luv in the tub" problem.  It works as follows:

- Take (1) 16 year old teenage boy
- Add drivers license
- Boy leaves house (with permission) for a number of hours

This would normally lead to a "luv in the tub" opportunity.  However:

- Boy randomly comes home unannounced
- No way to hear Boy driving up the driveway
- Boy appears in back yard

This scenario causes the entire problem to be a non-issue.   ::)

WARNING - This is bound to offend someone so please receive this post with th humor intended and not some political bent.....

I have a "gently used" model from 1966 that doesn't seem to share Trixie's exhuberance for "Romance".  She is only around 120lbs and has been well maintained.  Any ideas of how I could get her interested in Trixie's idea's?  Does Trixie offer personal consulation services (ah, er, to the 1966 model of identical gender, not me, the 1962 model of alternate gender) I know I can get a trade in but the depreciation cost on these things is KILLER (especially since before the two assets, she used to enjoy "romance").  LOL! :o

How long have you had the tub?  The tub has increased our romance inside and outside of the tub substantially.  We've had it almost a year and we are still reaping the benfits.   ;)  I'm not sure how it 'happened'  the first time but... it happens a couple times a week consistently.

Just to keep everyone current

Hot-tub sex not a guilty pleasure, judge says
(http://www.dailysouthtown.com/news/77475,1ND3-29.article)

September 29, 2006

By Lauren FitzPatrick Staff writer

The verdict came out as swiftly as a jacuzzi jet: Sexual freedom lives on in the leafy back yards of Lockport.

Will County Circuit Judge Marilee Viola had barely finished hearing closing arguments when she ruled that a 38-year-old lieutenant for the Cook County sheriff's police and her 22-year-old lover did not violate a public indecency statute when they canoodled in the buff in her pink backyard hot tub.

Backyard hot tubs aren't public places, even if teenage neighbors are able to see them, Viola said in acquitting the once-openly amorous couple.

"Common sense tells you those (sexual acts) occurred. But I'm not sure the evidence established this is a public place," the judge continued. "This is a backyard residence; this is a private residence."

Kelly Mrozek, the hot tub's owner, and Mark Sumner, of Orland Park, had faced up to a year in jail on a single count of misdemeanor public indecency, and stood trial for two days for engaging in sexual behavior in what prosecutors called a public place.

Mrozek testified on her own behalf that she and Sumner lay nude in the tub around 4 p.m. on Nov. 3, 2005, but didn't have sex. She also insisted she wasn't drunk on two "Bacardi and diet" cocktails, as a Lockport officer testified.

Before she left the house in nothing but a towel, "I looked around, and there was nobody out at all," she said.

"As long as you attempt in every way to be private in your own yard and make sure no one sees your actions, you should be able to do whatever you want in your own home," her attorney Marty Dolan said, arguing that the case was an overblown dispute among neighbors.

The fight began, he said, after Mrozek had cars belonging to Nash visitors ticketed for blocking her driveway and mailbox.

He accused Cheryl Nash, who lives next to Mrozek in the 1100 block of Treeline Drive, of complaining to police until February -- when the couple were charged -- about the myriad naked acts she, her then-14-year-old son and another neighbor witnessed that November day from their home computer room and their back deck.

"Instead of giving the defendant her day in court, we have to give the Nashes their day in court," Dolan said. "The only, only, only reason we're here is because (Mrozek's) a Cook County sheriff."

Mrozek, an 11-year-veteran of the Cook County sheriff's police who has worked under cover on the vice squads, has been moved to desk duty pending an internal investigation, according to a sheriff's spokesman. Her future with the department should come out in a few weeks; meanwhile, she took unrelated medical leave, he said.

Will County prosecutors had accused Mrozek and Sumner of having sex outside in broad daylight.

"Hey, let's get naked and into a hot tub -- it's 4 o'clock, why not?" Assistant State's Attorney Daniel Walsh told the judge, mocking Mrozek's cavalier attitude toward her actions.

The problem was, Walsh argued, the tub also could be seen from the front sidewalk, even the street, where it sits in the corner of the yard, surrounded by a low slatted fence.

But neighbors along the street of sided duplexes and weathered wood fences didn't seem to care, either.

A young man smoking outside a house a few doors up the street said, "On her property, (Mrozek) should be able to do whatever she wants."

A 28-year-old mother of two tiny children at the other end of the street didn't want her boys exposed to nudie neighbors.

"I personally don't care, but I don't live next door to them," Laura Hidalgo said.

But otherwise, she said, "It's their business, their back yard."

And a woman across the curved subdivision street called the whole affair "silly."

"I think there are more important things for people to worry about," Jeanne Dominguez said.

The Nash parents left the courthouse quietly. Afterward, Cheryl Nash said police had warned her against confronting her neighbor directly.

"She's my neighbor, but this is my family," Nash said of her decision to dial 911. "I didn't need to see that.

"I never ever go out in my yard naked and do that to my neighbors because that is just disgusting."

Son Bobby Nash, who was 14 and just home from Lockport High School when he witnessed hot-tub love in the afternoon, also is upset he had to testify Wednesday in front of everyone against the woman whose driveway he used to shovel.

"It was so traumatic for my son, but they needed him to testify," Nash said. "He went through all this aggravation and stress for nothing."

She and her neighbor who shares a border with Mrozek on the other side, said the problems began years ago, with fights over loud music and fences.

Robbin Garrett, who leaned way back on the stand Wednesday to demonstrate the position she saw Sumner assume from Nash's deck, said she couldn't believe the verdict.

"It was shocking," Garrett said. "I don't think anybody could believe the judge could say she wasn't guilty. That was just overwhelming."

Then Garrett joked about her own plans for the evening, looking at a possible plus from the verdict -- a leisurely sunset skinny dip in her own above-ground pool.

We've got birds in our yard, but they're mockingbirds.  They don't do that kind of stuff as far as I can tell.  They're the State Bird of Texas and seem to be above all that.

I am shocked that no one asked Brooke what different methods are used?  As a new tub owner any valuable tips and insights I can pass on to the wife would be much appreciated!!!! ;)
