Retro revisited..ugh.

Just read in a gay magazine that the seventy’s look is back. Oh the heady times back then. Everyone looking so casual and laid back with their requisite long drooping mustaches. It just hit me; can this mean polyester is close behind? 

Ah those halcyon days when, if you put the clothes’ dryer’s heat on too high a setting, one’s best shirts would melt! Long after I’ve left this veil of tears I take comfort in knowing that those items of apparel I packed away will still be around for at least one hundred years before they decompose.

Thoughts on 'Coming Out' Day!

Our own major pharmaceutical festival day. Yes that special daylong celebration that makes your family druggist’s eyes water as they contemplate the major sales of tranquilizers this day will usher in. Yep it is gay “coming out day”! Coming Out Day or as my friend once called it “the day my mom’s dreams of grandchildren died and my father well, he just died.” 

Don’t misunderstand me now on this sensitive issue. I totally support coming out to your entire family. Not too keen on my entire family being in the know about me but yours…hey I’m totally cool. My advice here: when you tell dad your gay just swear to him you’d never bottom. This way his final thoughts as he suffers that coronary will not be filled with visions of his buff manly boy’s heels over his head! 

Then go visit the pharmacy. Honey you’ll need it! 

Side note: Liquor distributors look to the next day for their sales to rise or so I’m told.

Confessions about a closet Str8 guy.

Brad called to get together with “the group”. I always find it 

amusing that Brad, who is totally straight, can hardly wait to 

meet up with his gay friends for drinks and fun. No, the boy is 

not a closet case but considering how hot he looks I confess 

that is one closet I’d play in! The simple fact is Brad recently 

discovered a little known fact about “hanging with the gays” i.e. 

hot women hang with us too! Even better a good majority of hot 

women hang with gay guys under the misapprehension that we 

might possibly be converted! Yes, Brad plays that “maybe I’m 

unsure of my sexuality” card with gusto. I mean the boy has 

“shyly” agreed to undertake the attempt to be “converted” more 

times than anyone I know. It’s getting to be a regular aspect of 

our nights out with him. At some point he hesitantly agrees to 

“try it” with some woman who is now overly eager to try her hand 

at turning him. Then he leaves with said giggling female saying 

his goodbyes to us with the remark he’s about to be “baptized” 

into heterosexuality. By now, he has been “baptized” so much we 

should all chip in to buy him a christening gown for God’s sake! 

Will these women never learn? 

Memo to the females who hit on a gay guy hoping for a 

conversion: sweetie next time you play on the gay you might stop 

to possibly consider that you just got played yourself!

Some varied musings in my gay daze *>)

A married man argued that legalizing gay marriage would mean legalizing polygamy and even bestiality. I told him since no one can multi-marry the polygamy worry was groundless. As for bestiality, I did say it might be to his wife’s advantage if it was legalized since she clearly married an ass.


Dear Tea Party crowd. I notice almost all of you are in your late fifties and above. I smile thinking that in ten years many of you will be tossed aside by your kids and stuck in a nursing home that sucks because you helped cut off public health care funding.


‎"Among the things they did was to demonize the unions and pass laws to cripple them." A reflection on rise of fascism.


As tax time approaches, one must keep in mind that giving a "happy ending" to a cleric does not entitle one to claim it as a charitable deduction.


To all who worry about possible fundamentalist Islamist entering Egypt's govt. The Egyptian people only want the same right we have: the right to vote religious bigots into offices.

Great guys and awesome actors!

Check them out and follow them *>)!

Not so gleeful on GLEE'S Prejudices

Glee. Okay I will admit I watch it and enjoy the music. But lately a friend ( kudos Joe) pointed a few things out and now, looking at the show, I do see his point.

First off the “never been kissed episode” had some major problems:

1. Kurt’s teacher clearly is aware the student is being harassed. Does he say,” how can I help stop this?” NO, he says, “ gee Kurt you usually cope better with this!” Hey gay kid, see teacher won’t help.

2. The show strongly implies that, “pvt. schools are places gay students are safer than public schools (see that conversation with the warbler and Kurt). I’m sorry but that is a lie. If the writers think that, then clearly they missed what goes on in pvt. schools.

Side note: Kurt gets this crap @ school and NO ONE from his glee group steps in or is there for him? Good lesson there huh, Glee writers.

Another issue is the gay stereotyping that seems to always appear in Glee in some way.

1. Kurt stalks Finn. Kurt stalks the new blonde jock. Yeah all gays do that one huh? Feed those false prejudices fellas.

2. The bully is a closet case. Some are but don’t imply this is the situation so straights can think, “oh its gay on gay see not our bigotry.” At least SAY SOMETHING about it not always the case in a majority of situations.

3. Kurt and his warbler friend’s ENTIRE dinner talk revolve around inane movie/book/fashion subjects. Come on stereotypes again. This feeds the prejudice of straights who think gays only talk about things like that twenty-four seven. Come on please. I’ve had & have  non-entertainment conversations with gay friends and I'm sure you do too!

You think I’m being too harsh. Sorry but this show claims it tries to teach (see their interviews). It does a lot of good but it does quite a bit of harm. Don’t believe me. Next time listen to kids talking about it. They pick the above up. Oh and spare me the gay “spokesperson” who will appear on the show and criticize my critique of the writers. The later are wrong. They need to hear it.It is a good show. Make it a better one!

On the new airport intensive searches

A friend described the recent "invasive airline search" he just underwent when he declined the "porn ray exam". I swear sounded like a typical night in the back room of the Eagle without the obligatory "after grope" drink the guy always buys you.

Memo to my air traveling friend: 1. You cannot go "back in the line" just because that guard was cute; 2. It is not a good idea to slip him your number after he is finished; 3. If this was the high point of your trip, I'd book better trips buddy*>)!
