My Pet Peeve

My greatest pet peeve in life is when my close friends paged, emailed or IMmed me with a message that reads:

"I have something news for you. I'll tell you about it later like 8 PM."

Nobody has the right to drop a bomb on me and get away with it. Only me! I have the right to drop a bomb on others but not anyone else on me!

I hate these addictive cliffhangers.

It made me sit and wonder all day long until 8 PM, then I find out that she is just that.

Well, today, I got this one and it has been on my mind all day long. I hate that.

WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG! YOU SO WRONG! YOU SO WRONG! :-P

Back To Old Tactics!

I read Shane's comments with interest about the current situation in Washington about the Federal Marriage Amendment where there are two gay activists taking the chances to 'out' the Hill staffers.

Shane is adorable man and all that, but there are some stuff that I do not agree with. Of course, that's why we have our own opinions.

It may sound like childish and vindictive to out the Hill staffers, but how many generations should suffer because one person thought of himself, first and foremost of all? To me, his selfishness in being silent and working with anti-gay Republicans is merely childish as well.

Politics are all about games, that includes destroying people's lives to gain something else, like it or not. One good example is ... Roy Cohn was gay, he destroyed many lives of gay men during the McCarthyism scare. He did it with no remorse. He did it for himself, that is selfish. But the damages that he did to others were irreplaceable. Gay men did nothing to out Roy as he wrecked a lot of gay men's lives. AIDS was the one that finally silenced Roy Cohn.

Well, I can compare Cohn with Tolman. Few words to describe them are: Condescending, arrogant, vanity, selfish and boorish. "I'm doing my job, for myself, for my needs, for me. Me. Me. Me. Me!!!"

For a long time, gay men tends to be very passive when it comes to laws dictating them. NO more. Enough is enough. This time, we must not permit anyone to trample our rights, especially with the vote regarding the Federal Marriage Amendment. If it requires us to disparage and out some Hill staffers who works with anti-gay Republicans, then so be it. Go for it. Out some more. It is always irritating to find some Hill staffers jerking off in Union Station men's bathroom near the food court then go home as if nothing ever happened.

Remember, the political arena has been always a game ever since the Roman days. We kill, ruin and ridicule others to gain what is on the table for us.

You Committ suicide? Sure, go ahead, kill yourself. Here is the shotgun! Do it! We are better off without people who works with anti-gay Republicans. It is certainly better to blow your head off because you cannot face your family that you're a faggot, than to see gay men who struggled to have the right to marry.

Deal with it. Suicide tends to associate with selfishness. When you do that, it just proved us all along in the first place, that you care only about yourself, but not the rest of us. So go ahead, faggot.

Find Your Own Spots In Good Ole USA

According to the website, it identified the Top 24 listings of cities/towns that I probably will be happy.

Here is the listing:

1. Portland, Oregon: Been there before, it is nice town. It has mountains and everything but do I like it? I dont know.

2. Hartford, Connecticut: Over my dead body.

3. Charleston, West Virginia: Someone has to be kidding!

4. Salem, Oregon: Nice town, nearby a deaf school. But what I learned from a friend of mine, it is xenophobic town.

5. Frederick, Maryland: Whoo, whoo. Deaf school, DelaJoy, Eric Hamlow and plenty of rednecks to drool! Harpers Ferry ain't that far, such a beautiful town!! *sigh*

6. Providence, Rhode Island: Never been there, anyone tell me why I should live there?

7. Medford, Oregon: Never been there, but it is close to Crater Lake. I love these stuff. 'nuff said.

8. Corvallis, Oregon: Never been there, can't say much.

9. Sheboygan, Wisconsin: Yeah, right. Like I wanted to live there.

10. Albuquerque, New Mexico: I do not mind living there 'cuz I'd enjoy driving up to Santa Fe, hanging out with Erin and riding some hot air balloons annually.

11. Worcester, Massachusetts: Not bad, though. But the name sounds too ancient for my taste.

12. New Haven, Connecticut: No thanks. Do not think I can enjoy a town that breeds Skulls and the Bush legacy.

13. Eugene, Oregon: Never been there, can't say much.

14. Baltimore, Maryland: I had been there many times with friends and my sister. The town is always eccentric. My sister used to live there. She loves it more than I do. I prefer Washington than Baltimore, though.

15. Shelburne Falls, Massachusetts: Never been there, anyone else?

16. Carson City, Nevada: Not bad but I'd prefer to live in Reno or Sparks instead.

17. Johnson, Vermont: I have a weakness for Vermont, really.

18. Bend, Oregon: Too many Oregonian cities for me! Enough is enough. Bend is somewhere eastward of Mt. Hood. I like Mt. Hood. Perhaps ... Bend sounds fitting, though, for me to tell others to bend down.

19. Danbury, Connecticut: I disliked the state of Connecticut because of UConn Huskies. 'nuff said. Bomb it, secede it away, please!

20. Champaign-Urbana, Illinois: Somebody has to be kidding. This town is in midst of nowhere except for cornfields. Not interested.

21. Middlebury, Vermont: I like Vermont, I like Vermont. 'nuff said.

22. Brattleboro, Vermont: I like -- see? I rest my case. It is easy to identify the deaf school by the highway in Brattleboro, though. Nice town, but tad toooooo small for me.

23. Milwaukee, Wisconsin: Ahh, fuck, no. This is the same town where Jeffrey Dahmer fucked, killed and ate men. Not interested.

24. Eau Claire, Wisconsin: Not far from Minneapolis, not bad. Not bad.

What do you guys think?

Last Night

Last night, I cooked ground beef then poured baked beans in it. Squirted ketchup as much as can be. Stirred it around and voila! You got the creamy beef with baked beans. Cynthia went, "Ugh, so greasy!"

I had to do that. I am a southerner. We eat garbage. Once in a while, I have the urge to eat foods that my parents made for me as a kid.

It is delicious but not healthy, I know. Once in a while will simply do for me. At least, I do not smoke cigarettes everyday. The only problem that might occur today at work is that I might fart a lot. This happens when I eat baked beans.

Then I watched "The Red Dragon". Ralph Fiennes is irresistible. It is hard to believe that he prefers older women. Saw his dick dangling when he ran around in the film, forced me to smile a little. He is cute. His old geezer is lucky to have it up her chopped liver. The whole flick is rather sad. I could not blame Ralph's character to act like that. "The Red Dragon" is the prequel to The Silence of the Lambs and Hannibal.

In the last few days, I had been drawing bit too much. It calms me down, I think. I drew of different things then colored them. I think it is because I have these colored pencils that I found in some box, and decided to make the use of it. It is cool. I'm currently working on the skyline of Richmond, copied from a postcard. Let me see if there is a picture on the 'net ... yeah, here it is! That is similar to what I am drawing as of now.

There Are Things In Life That Makes You Say "Awww!"

This is simply cute. If Rick Bousfield is cute like he is charming and sensitive, I want a guy like him.

I added Kiki and HushStorm on the bloglist because I knew them. Kiki and I had some moments of wild time at Gallaudet. HushStorm is just cute fella at RIT that I flirted from time to time. He still resisted my advances. Don't know what to do next. Still contemplating the next move.

Omit Pride out of Gay Pride Parade?

I'm now on Anger chapter of Dan Savage's Skipping Towards Gomorrah.

IN "Pride" chapter, where it talked about how sexual the Gay Pride Parades tend to be. Kevin, Jake and Tim kept on saying that the parades are for "gay youth" but Dan looks around. No (probably not many) young 'uns.

It talks about how we need to promote that being "gay is good". Actually, Dan is right. The whole rhetoric of "gay is good" is all b.s.

We have good and bad people in Gay Communities. Look at me, some people thinks I'm evil. There are gay men who are passing HIV to other unsuspecting gay men like free candies or condoms. Not only that, it is no secret that when a very good-looking guy comes out of the closet, they are constantly hit on by older gay men.

Dan said he learned the hard way when he was young. I agreed with him. I learned the hard way, too. Being Gay is not fun, especially in dealing with gay men who are incredibly judgmental. It took me a while to stand up and say, "Fuck off, let me be me."

All in all, I think the parade should remove "pride" out of this parade & festival. Call it Gay Day Parade. Or Gay Parade.

Look at Kevin, Jake and Tim -- they said: "We came here to laugh at the freaks." It says it all. They worked so hard to buff themselves, to look hot so that they will not be branded as freaks. So they feel they had the right to laugh at others who are not like them. So much for pride.

Wall Street Sauna

It is a joke. The NYC Health Department sued the Wall Street Sauna in downtown NYC for unsafe sex and finally got them to close the doors.

The owners of Wall Street Sauna denied that there were sexual activities in the private club. The manager, Ancil Brown said, "These crazy sex acts that the city is claiming happen here do not, and I am really shocked and appalled that they are trying to shut us down."

But the problem, Ancil Brown, is that Wall Street Sauna was mentioned in HX and Next magazines, the city's gay entertainment booklets.

It is sex club, no question about it. Stop denying, Ancil Brown. Deal with it, you're finished.
