Skipping Towards Gomorrah

I like the last chapter. It is fast-paced, everything wrapped up in a bang. Dan is genius, pretty much.

I enjoyed the book very much. Thanks to Char for loaning it to me!

Studmuffin Jeff

Studmuffin Jeff has been added to the list as well. We first met in Los Angeles when we worked for that bitch whom I do not want to identify on my blog. If I mention her name, I lose the dignity!

Jeff is 100% straight but that does not stop him from cracking a joke about gays with me. But he is so funny. We click together and crack a joke after a joke after a joke ... mostly about anything else. There are few straight men out there who are male chauvinist pigs with some interesting subjects to discuss. Jeff is one of them.

Now you can read his blog and laugh as well. That is so him.

Just When You Thought They'd Die ...

CSD (Communication Service for the Deaf) has been growing and did not cease to amaze me with the fact that it is non-profit organization but it has money. Money to spend. Money to crush NAD if they wanted to. In fact, it probably has money to run the university.

And they just announced that they will set up a basketball clinic for 5th-12th graders and call it Ronda Jo Miller Basketball Clinic. Do I hear the collective groans out there?

Don't get me wrong about this phenomenon woman, I love Ronda Jo Miller's performances on hardwood floor. She is a savvy monster. She can make you forget that there are 4 other teammates playing along with her. She can dribble, shoot, rebound, block and do more.

But CSD's position in spawning itself all over the nation is something that makes me nervous at times. I think they're OK, but I heard about the salaries, the elitism et al. Frankly, something is wrong with the picture. I heard that it drove the fabled YLC out of its campgrounds after the NAD refused to let the CSD buy/steal/own YLC.

Only time will tell.

Where is that damned The Silent News when you need it the most?

Thanks a lot, Jon Kovacs.

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.
