Few Things To Point Out ...

Today, I went to OutFest, a gay event that celebrated the National Coming Out Day on October 11, 2005. At some point, the railroad elevated right above many buildings, provided the means to view the skyline of Philadelphia from distance. It also gave you the means to observe the rooftops that people would put on. At an abandoned building, you can see the refrigerator, stove and grocery cart sitting on the rooftop. I wonder what was the purpose of this after all?

I did not really enjoy the OutFest mainly because of few reasons but things like this is normal by any standard, I guess. HOw do I describe the OutFest? Let's imagine "gay pride block party" not during the summertime, but in fall season. No sexy underwears or naked torsos anywhere else. Everyone pretty much wore the casual jeans with sweaters. I saw one trannie with boobs, it was unbelievable huge. In fact, "she" literally bent down her back because her boobs are so enormous. She had the cane to help her move around. Eww.

I twisted my left ankle once again. C'est la vie. Too many people to converge in one setting is not my thing. I think I have claustrophobia when it comes to too many people. Speaking of people, I think New York is still the best in terms of diversity.

Whale Fatterson Is Still Retard: Whale Fatterson on a certain forum claimed that he was the instrument in making me taking "terrorist" off from the line on the top of my blogsite "The world's one and only blog reserved for the legendary Deaf Gay Militant [Terrorist]". If he wants to take the credit for something that is not true at all, then so be it.

Actually, I had a conversation with a hearing friend of mine in New York. He is a blogger as well. He and I had a frank discussion about the prospects of this blog going big-time with huge readership from the Deaf Community in general. He thought it was amusing that I put GDMT on the line, but there was a concern about the new readers coming in, especially with hearing people that might feel threatened by the word. I gave it a consideration and agreed with my friend and took it out.

And Whale Fatterson wanted to take the credit for this? Please. That fat guy claimed that he made a call to the Department of Homeland Security about the so-called "terrorist" comments. Guess what? Obviously, they did not take the fat guy seriously since they never got in touch or check with me at all.

Let's face this, McWeenie and Whale Fatterson, I averaged 320 readers per day, your blogs cannot even hit 50 per day. I provide the best source for others to rely on and laugh. It is entertainment! It is flattering that they came back to read more, poke fun and whine about different issues. But to post on the forum to whine about me is silly. To get the ideas about who I am is silly. To question about the mental status is silly.

Nancy, you do not know who I am. Sherry, to claim that you have gay friends but yet is against gay rights is not compatible at all. It is a fad among the anti-gay fellows to make these ridiculous statements. McWeenie, you think you're competing against me. In fact, I'm 8 times better than you and still growing. Mizhko, you get a life of your own, cease and desist your whiny comments about my blogsite.

To address the "respect" comments that some readers were appalled that I made fun of my parents occasionally on my blog. First of all, they do not respect me as gay man, instead -- they refuse to respect my wishes, they insist to test my beliefs, they push my boundary lines. In turn, why should I even pay an iota of respect for them? I reserve the right to make fun of 'em if I want to. Don't throw hypocrisy in my face.

Ahh, yes, thanks for visiting my blogsite.

I Was Right! Remember what I said about Xians' Doom Crapola? Here is the latest link. Guys, look busy when He comes.

Only 3 Arrested? This is travesty. Beating up on 64 years old drunkard?! C'mon. Only 3? Look at the cop riding on the horse, he was trying to protect his officers by obstructing the view of camcorder. They should arrest and charge everyone else that was involved with this fiasco. This just proved that they are pigs. Never trust a cop at all.

Related to a pig, here is another article where Deaf man was roughed up by cops in Canada.

Hurricane Vince Heading Where? To Portugal and Spain, believe it or not. This is very odd one. Normally, the hurricanes followed the current from east to west like the clockwise, but this one is heading into Portugal. Portugal is battling its worst forest fire in years due to its worst drought ever. With trees dead, having a tropical storm coming in is not going to give Portugal a break, in fact, it will create massive mudslides. Stay tuned, though.

Wow, Gallaudet Is Now 5-0! Gallaudet, under the tutelage of hot coach in Ed Hottle, Gallaudet beats Wesley JV 29-19 to improve the season at 5-0 with 3 games left to go. Not bad for a first-year coach! With the win, the football team is assured of its first winning season in many years.

It is safe to say that at Gallaudet Homecoming Day, people will WATCH the game instead of chatting with friends right next to the Hotchkiss Field. I'm pretty impressed with Ed Hottle. I mean, he got the players to believe that they can win. The scores, I think, proved itself.

And a friend of mine mentioned that Ed Hottle was aware that I wrote several entries about how hot he is. And his response was charming but unexpected. He chortled to his buddy, "Now I got a wife and gay guy that thinks I'm hot, you got any?"

Priceless. Perhaps, for the first time in a long time, Gallaudet has found the gem in Ed Hottle. For a long time, Gallaudet Athletics has been a place where women are champions, but men are pigs. But the trend may have a positive change in the long run for Gallaudet Athletics. Well done, Gallaudet Griddlers!

Update About Our Brave Soldiers! Remember this entry that I wrote few weeks ago. Here is the update of the person who owned the forum that traded nude pictures to the soldiers for dead Iraqis pictures. Sempfer Fi! Not.

Boy George Busted: In New York, Boy George called the cops because his place was burglarized. Then the cops found several grams of coke. Boy George claimed that he hosted lots of friends that come and go, one of them dropped it off or something else. He could be right. Knowing Little Italy, Lower East Side and East Village, getting coke is akin to buy a bottle of Milk, really. I saw him several times in New York bars, he cannot hang out on his own. He must have friends with him all the time. Maybe insecure? Maybe not. Not my type, he happened to be good friends with some friends that I occasionally met for drinks. He made me cringe at times, though.

Stupid Mother Of the Year: In Austin, Darren Gay and Donald Bockman are going to the prison for 6 years. Why? They beat up on a slender gay guy then sexually assaulted him as well. Why did this happen? Darren Gay was furious that this victim made a sexual advance on his younger brother, Glen Gay. The irony part is that Darren and Don used the Bible to pass the judgement, then sexually assaulted him!

And Dawna Gay, the mother of Glen and Darren, said: "This is my beloved son, and know I'm very proud of you."

Dawna Gay wins the Stupid Mother of the Year Award. But that is to be expected from fellas in Texas.

Cheers,

Be Proud of Yourself!

Laurent Clerc died on July 18, 1869. That is roughly 136 years ago. It is no question that in 15 years, his death will be 150th Anniversary. Of course, I'll be there to honor this magnificent man of our history in the making.

Laurent Clerc, the First Deaf Teacher FOR the Deaf
Don't let it be ... a period of mourning! Let it be the period of celebration. If not for Laurent Clerc, where will we be? Let's face this .. we won't be here without this man, Laurent Clerc.

It is too bad that not many people in this world outside of "Deaf World" gets to appreciate a person like Laurent Clerc.

Look at this website, Washington & Lee University. Let's be serious -- George Washington *never* met Robert Lee and yet, they got named to the same university! And yet, our own fucking university preferred a fucking hearing guy over a deaf guy -- let's be fucking realistic -- do you truly think Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet would be successful without Laurent Clerc?

Two words: Fat chance.

How do we change this? Let's use this as an example ...

This Is The Place To Celebrate!

Why did I choose this picture? This was taken from a Broadway play called "RENT" -- which hits my chord at some point, but the idea remains the same, we are to celebrate who we are! Fuck the world and step outside and holler that you're fucking Deaf as can be!

Cheers!

Pictorial Galore!

Don't lie. Who shopped at JcPenney? I do not shop them -- actually, I probably bought some stuff twice or thrice in ten years from that store.

But I have a pop quiz for you. I'm going to post a picture of the first, original store of JcPenney in North America -- your duty is to find where it is located at. No cheating via the websites. I know the answer because I was there! In fact, I stood outside of my car and watched the area. I snapped the picture and grinned at the idea that this original building of JcPenney is right next to "Triangle Club" in midst of NOWHERESVILLE!

Can you identify the town? Each time I looked at the photo -- I always stared at that bar on the right? The population of the town is ... 2,567.

And yet, JcPenney conquered the fucking world!

Enough With JcPenney Shit: Next with this picture, willja?

Well, this picture is very interesting. Erik and I accomodated with Erik's aunt to Coral Gables, just south of Miami -- and she ordered us to step backwards into the grounds that is very ... wet. In fact, when I smiled, I can feel my feet sinking. And Erik was putting on his best smile because we were sinking so fast. Lucky for his aunt, she flashed this great picture before we ran off from that site.

Cool, is it?

Oh, by the way, the picture is ... about 9 years ago. How sad, is it? I miss Erik very much. Even if we had arguments, I love him. He has to be the most funniest person I ever hung out with. Sigh.

The Origins of Mordru

When I was 8, Amethyst was "officially" killed by DC Comics because she was too "much" for them to handle -- after all, she is powerful than Superman or Green Lantern and she is only female! That does not sit well with the majority of readers who are ... male.

But the storyline was not done. So Keith Giffen, thank God that he has the sense of finalizing things on his end, tied her with a comic book series called Legion of Super-Heroes to ensure that Amethyst will never be forgotten. How? In LSH series, there are many planets that became the charter members of United Planets, among them are The Sorcerers' World. Keith went on to explain that 1,000 years in the past, The Sorcerers' World was ... Gemworld.

However, Mordru was a thorn on LSH's list for years but he never managed to cross into the current era to wreck the universe as destined. Until Keith did the trick -- he introduced the origins of Mordru in ... Gemworld. How?

Amethyst's ex flame, Lord Topax had a son named Prince Wrynn. That boy wanted to taste the brunt of darkling powers. The omnipotent beings known as the Lords of Chaos granted his wish -- by doing that, Prince Wrynn's soul was destroyed in the process. The new entity replaced the body -- who else? Mordru!

By tying Mordru with Gemworld, Amethyst's existence will not be forgotten -- or my tattoo, at least!

Mordru failed to conquer Amethyst. By failing to do so, Amethyst savagely punished him by burying him alive for a thousand years. Mordru is an omnipotent being, he does not like to be restrained ... in fact, being restrained to a body is pretty much tasteless for him. In other words, he is claustrophobic -- the only way to stop him is to bury him alive, that would shut his mind down immediately.

He prefers to conquer everything and to remake it in his image. Let's face this -- Mordru is not even a human -- he was never born therefore he will never die. He is not a human at all. He is pure chronal energy infused with magic.

I like Mordru because he is pretty arrogant, funny, hilarious and tough guy to deal with. One guy complained, "Do you love to hear yourself talk that much, Mordru?"

Mordru shot back, "But talk is merely the bedfellow of my actions!" Then he blasted the complainant down just like that. That is my style. Just like me.

As an avid fan of comic books, I was bit annoyed that the Joker, Lex Luthor and few others that does not possess any powers beyond their intelligence and yet, they got more attention from the mainstream press ... Mordru's status was nonexistant. Honest to God, if Mordru faced Joker, he'd wipe him off the map before anyone could even blink an eye!

Thanks to a certain writer who loved Amethyst, he brought Mordru into the current storyline by infusing him into a comic book called JSA, ever since, he is doing great!

My dear friend confirmed that he bought JSA #78 and will deliver it to me by tomorrow when I meet him at a certain coffeehouse in Philadelphia, you don't know how excited I am to see Mordru to emerge from the fucking prison called the Rock of Eternity!

Mordru fucking rules!

Oh, yeah, Stephen Sadowski drew Mordru very well. I should find him and buy him a dinner or two in New York sooner or later!

Cheers,

Move Over, Brady Bunch!

Not a long time ago, I mentioned about Mom & Dad ... and that The Brady Bunch has nothing to compete with my family. I thought it was time for me to post the picture of my family in general. The pictures were taken in '96. That is nearly 10 years ago. Go figure. Most of us aged a little but you get the picture!

Enjoy.



I should mention that the top two on both sides are CODAs, the rest are Deaf. For hearing people that does not know what CODA stands for, it means Children of Deaf Adults.

This is one of several entries that I will post the pictures in few hours. Hopefully, you guys will enjoy this ... after all, you have the privilege to make fun of me in the process.

Yeah, Mom's birthday occurs today on 9th of October. Happy birthday, you douchebag.

Cheers,

Interlude Along With Tidbits

Last night, Mundey hosted a nice Halloween party. I had a good time. One thing that made me wince is that a certain fellow that I never liked was there. I was being cordial and all that, but he remained defiant. I told him to tell his sister that I said congratulations for her promotion as the Acting Principal at MSSD. He chortled something to an effect to acknowledge that he still regarded me as his enemy.

Whatever he wants to make himself feel better -- someone needs to prescribe him stronger doses of Ritalin.

Too bad, PJ left earlier and he won something from the raffle contest. But he has to be present in order to pick up. If PJ was there, he would be the only white person to pick up something from more than 15 prizes. Yes, nearly all of them were won by Latinos or African Americans! I blew about $10 on it and won nothing! :-(

And the bizarre part about the last prize, the DVD player, Kevin had an idea -- to dwindle down to 3 lucky tickets. Then someone has to pick two out of 3. Then in the last round, if someone pulled this particular ticket of two, that particular ticket is not the winner but the loser!

So you can see the sudden confusion when Jorge found his name to be the one that pulled out first -- he cheered while everyone said, "NO NO YOU LOST!"

Suffice to say, Jorge was pretty down on this afterwards.

Food? Lots of food were provided -- I had a good time partyin' with new faces and old faces.

Oh, yeah, Chris Cowden was there as usual. I mean, let's face this -- if Kevin Mundey dies, Chris Cowden will find a way to accomodate him somewhere in the afterlife, really. Of course, I'm joking but people knew that if Kevin is there, Chris has to be there. Case closed.

For two days in a row, the area has been drenched with the Remnants of Tammy. It is nice climate to mellow and catch up on lots of things around the apartment.

And yeah, the computer is back to normal. I managed to correct everything -- yes, I can access gmail or even porn websites. Whew. In fact, I called the Hewlett&Packard to talk about the computer issues via the videophone relay service -- guess who popped up as my VP interpreter? Chris Owens of Glimpse! At first, I recognized him and he grinned and after taking care of the issues, I get to chat with him about Beth. Nothing serious. But Chris is looking good -- too bad, on my end, I was not in mood to look "nice" for the VP, though. But it was good to see your face, Chris!

Few tidbits to check out:
GW Bush Is Demented: It was reported that several leaders from the Middle East said that GW Bush personally told them that God told him to invade Afghanistan and Iraq. Blah, blah. Sounds like a classic delusional Xian, is it? Since I'm on this subject, read this article by Bill Gallagher. It is interesting stuff. Hell, I'll throw in some more as well.

Wake Up, Xian Freaks! Know what annoys me the most? Xians tried to use the current events to argue that the EndTimes are coming. Actually, it is absurd. Earthquakes, tsunamis and volcanoes are very normal. These happened all over the place but for thousands of years, we do not know about 'em because we lacked the means to communicate. Today, we can report of a murder in Perth, Australia just like that. So this planet is not dead. It is very active. It has been moving its tectonic plate all over the world. Sometimes it is that strong, sometimes it is not that strong.

So when Pakistan got a 7.6 richter scale jolt today that resulted in thousands of deaths, don't be surprised to hear from Xians who will say, "See? It is very soon. Something will happen."

How do I respond to these ignorants? Of course, I smile and left them alone to their own imaginations. Better that way, I guess.

I'm out.

Cheers,

AIM, Mundey & Bradley

Rainy, Rainy Day! What a perfect setting for my mood today. After doing the daily sit-ups, I screamed with gibberish sounds at Roxy for trying to eat out of trash can. Then I tried to be "Mama" by shouting unverified sounds at Roxy -- you could see her closing her eyes as to say, "Okay, tone down the barbaric voice!"

Then I realized that my lower torso is very stiff, not from screaming obscenities at Roxy, but from doing the sit-ups every morning and night. I guess that is good sign. Can you imagine RT with 6 abs on his chest? Perhaps ...

I am glancing at the weather outside. It is gloomy, rainy -- exact what Philadelphia needed. Philadelphia has been very dry in the last 30 days.

AIM Is Back, but Very Spotty! My AIM is back. But it is very spotty. I'm good at doing things but with technical? Then I really needed Shannon or Christian to do the tricks. I'm not good with technical problems. If I suddenly signed off from AIM in the midst of conversation, it is technical problem, nothing personal.

What's Up With This, Scott? 4 years ago at Gallaudet, I was off from my duty as Resident Advisor and stood outside of Benson Hall Circle with Mark and Keith, chatting away about almost everything. Suddenly, a car pulled up. About 6 people came out -- I tried to greet Scott Bradley but he was furious. I noticed that other guys were in state of daze or shock. I noticed some scratches on their arms. I asked them what happened? One muttered that they just abandoned a jeep that crashed into some property not far from Gallaudet.

Of course, I was curious -- we zoomed and checked it out -- it was not bad, but the jeep got stuck when the huge fence literally wrapped itself on it.

Next day, Scott seemed to be back to normal and acted if it's no big deal. Impressive attitude. I like Scott. He is fun guy to hang out sometimes, really.

I got two sources from Gallaudet that indicated Scott was up to something once again -- The information mentioned that Scott Bradley jumped out of third floor building to avoid getting caught by the campus security. Scott, first of all, you aren't Superman! Second of all, many wanted to know why you did that?!

Getting Ready for Mundey's Party: The Halloween Party hosted by Kevin Mundey should be very interesting. I heard that Carl Way will be there. Guaranteed to have a drama to flare at the party. PJ said that few years ago, the same party had an incident related to the gunfire. But the party has been relocated to another place, though.

Either way, the party should be very interesting for me to observe but never to interfere ...

Cheers,
