Another Reason not to go to WalMart


Hey Gays,

I just read this on the web about a temp worker being trampled to death this morning by crazy shoppers pushing into WALMART for black Friday.

This is another case for what I've said before "The world has gone mad". It is absolutely unbelievable to me that people would break the hinges off the doors to get into walmart for Holiday shopping.

The marketing machine of retail really have made it seem that if you don't shop on black Friday the world will end. Guess what it won't but in this case some one's life did??????? What the fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I also read about a woman who dragged her son on Wednesday to Best buy and pitched a tent so they'd be the first in line for today's sales. That poor kid....How sad are these stories.

Santa must really be scratching his head and wondering where it all went wrong.

How did I miss Chris Evans


Hey gays,

I went to see that movie Street Kings earlier in the year and remembering that i thought one of the cops was really cute, he got shot, I even was thinking he was sexier than my boy keanu...wink, wink.

I kind of forgot about him until I saw a preview from a movie he is going to be in next year. I'm thinking he is the next big thing, the next Brad Pitt or something. He has a boy next door look about him and now i see from this pic a very nice body...yikes.

How did I miss Chris Evans...I'm a bad gay

Coming Around Again

hey gays,

so after all my tests the docs have found nothing specific. The positive is that
I don't have crohns disease or colitis but they can't figure out what it is.

He did prescribe me an anti spasm medication which is suppose to help my spastic bath rooming. Oh how fun I get to talk about my messy gastro system. It sometimes seems to take over my life, I hate that.

I'm glad the holidays are coming, something to take my mind off my health.....

I'm also going to start writing my next show though I haven't got the head for it at the moment. I need something to spark me...I will start though and i must have it done by December 15, that's my goal...I can do it!! write a one hour show in less than a month...mmmmmi don't know...LOL

Ok gays i'll be back with some fat things...LOL

A Hot Tri-Athlete


Hey Gays,

I found this photo on Flickr taken during a Triathalon in England.

A perfect example that bigger people can be athletic and not look bad in a speedo...

Go Connecticut Go!!!!


Hey Gays,

When one door closes another opens!

Chalk one up for my home state of Connecticut.
I've never been a huge fan of Connecticut even though I grew up there. It's more of
a feeling i had growing up that i didn't fit in there or in my community. Personally i think there are a lot of bad vibes in Connecticut...something about Indian burial grounds and history.....very spooky place

Well anyway I'm happy to report that gay marriage has started in Connecticut

Go gays!! and Go Connecticut!!

Message to Obama


Hey gays,

The Guardian UK did a photo campaign on Flickr which was called "Messages to Obama" so my hubby took a wonderful photo of us and our message and it was chosen as a favorite by the guardian.

Jeff is an excellent photographer and he has taken some really gorgeous shots over the years including ones of my character, etc.

I'm so pleased he got some recognition for this photo, i love it! We've been together for 15 years and we were able to marry, we hope everyone will get to have their turn and for it to be a right for everyone

Interesting article on Prop 8

Hey Gays,

I got married in Provincetown over 3 years ago and I'm really sad that this measure
Prop 8 was passed by the state of California.

I guess after reading this article I understand what this couple is saying. As a community we seem to sell everything in a Glamorous fashion by using celebrity, etc.

I think it would be important to show loving couples sharing their stories in commercials and ads because sometimes if people see real stories that can connect them the fear may turn to understanding.

Listen, I know the opposition was selling fear and posing it as what your children may learn, etc. which is ridiculous but we have to put ourselves out there rather than throwing a celebrity endorsement thinking people will change their minds...it doesn't work in my opinion.

Personally after so many years of not sharing everything about my life with my family got me no where. Once I opened up and shared my gay life with them, most have come around and treat Jeff and I like any other couple. My republican sister even has introduced jeff as my husband at times....

Also Obama does not support gay Marriage so people voting for him may have voted for the measure. I'm sure that added to uphill fight.

As I said in my last article we will overcome as many others have before us but unfortunately it doesn't happen overnight.

These fights have to be grass roots though, maybe its time we change the strategy and share the stories of long term GLBT couples and let people see how we live and share the stories. I'll be the first in line that's for sure!!

Say it's So Joe

hey gays,

Well what an exciting evening! I feel as if a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. The fact is that I'm so relieved we get to say goodbye to George W. Bush and his clan of misfits including John McCain.

I think it is a good time to be a little different for the first time in a while and finally the country woke up and elected someone who See's the world differently. I look at Barack Obama as a person with such a varied background that he understands inherently the plight of many people. He seems to understand that the world is not only about the United States but about the struggles of all people and he understands that there is a need for everyone to come together.

Though it is not a given that this will happen I feel at least there is hope now to try and start. I couldn't help but to get chills and cry as i looked at the faces of the African American people and how much hope they must have in their hearts now. It's actually a little hard to grasp the achievement and understand how much will change. Though I was a Hilary Clinton supporter and also longed for the first woman president this outcome is just as exciting and the endless possibilities it holds for so many people is staggering.

The Obama family seem as genuine as they come and the love they have for each other is so evident and comforting. I've even been won over by Joe Biden, he really seems like a nice person with good intentions and hope for our future.

After Obama's speech all I could think of was Sarah Palin asking Mr. Biden if she could call him Joe at the beginning of their debate and of course he said yes. The interesting point about this to me is that she asked in order to be able to bring him down by saying things like, "There you go again, Joe" or "Say it ain't so Joe". This showed right off the bat that this person was not your average hockey mom or even humbled. It showed me that she was willing to take advantage of someones kindness in order to further herself....

So today when I woke up I just laughed to myself thinking "Say it's so Joe" and it is!!

Lets make sure that this country is a better place for everyone starting today and even though as our GLBT community Struggle's will continue I think I have a little more comfort knowing that minorities do actually have a say and that everyones time will come if you stick with whatever your cause may be and believe in yourself.
