The Beer Bar

I stumbled on this show knowing nothing about it and recalling only that I had liked the leading man (Jeffrey Donovan) in a show called Touching Evil that was riveting but had a grim premise and lasted only one season. This show is 180° away from the earlier one. The writing is very sharp and funny. The situations are off the wall, and played with lots of humor and irony. Donovan's acting wisely owes a lot to Cary Grant. He is also a lust magnet of the first order. They get his shirt off pretty often, but overall are much too sparing with the beefcake to suit me. I'm waiting for the time he is put in a revealing bathing suit and made to come at us through the su…

The comedy fell short on making me laugh. I found it offensive and old. I hated the gay sterotypes and I hope that is NOT the way middle America sees us. The jokes mostly bombed and the funniest part was at the end when Lance Bass sang a song at a gay wedding. Save this movie for when you get a Free coupon from Blockbusters.

Well, it has been a slow gossip week I guess. But, I got an e-mail from Stef today and he has finally arrived back in the USA and gotten the amazing Iphone. How do I know this? His e-mail says at the end: Sent on My Iphone. Benji has been letting his hair grow out longer. His new pics on the site are cool. Frankly, I love a man with long hair and all my ex's have longer hair. Humm. I have been talking to a boy on Flirt and have grown attached to him. Eastern Europe seems like a nice place doesn't it?

I saw parts of the concert and really enjoyed it. I enjoyed the speech of Mr. Kennedy the most and the music of Madonna. The concert got lots of press and I thought it was great. Did it achieve anything?

Last night at 12:01 AM I was in line with a ton of others to pick up the latest copy of Harry Potter. This is supposed to be the last book in the series. I have close family who are in their early teens who wanted the book at midnight and their parents did not want to take them so I loaded them up for a wait in line at midnight. It was so exciting for them as they have never gotten to do something like this before and they were so excited about the release. Apparently lines were forming all over the country for the release and the excitement was in the air. The location I went too played Harry Potter trivia and if you answered a question right, you got a free movie p…

$8000 shower curtains are all well and good. But Kozlowski had nothing on this guy... Ex-Broadcom exec alleged to have sex, drug lair The co-founder of semiconductor maker Broadcom Corp., under scrutiny in a federal stock options probe, was accused seven years ago of building an underground hideaway at his estate to indulge in drugs and sex with prostitutes, according to court documents. In a draft complaint made against Henry T. Nicholas III, a construction crew claimed the billionaire failed to pay them millions of dollars for work performed between 1998 and 2002, and used “manipulation, lies, intimidation, and even death threats†when anyone threatened to quit. …

Having flown into that airport many times, I take my hat off and pray for the 200 plus victims of this tragic event. I love Brazil and its people and this is truly a horrible tragedy. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/18/world/am...nyt&emc=rss

Poor Clinton got a blowjob and a vote for impeachment. What has that good ol Southern boy Bush done to deserve such a fate? http://telluridegateway.com/articles/2007/...news/news02.txt Plus, I'm sure you have heard this one but I find it amuzing. GEORGE W BUSH IN HELL George Bush has a heart attack and dies. He goes to hell, where the devil is waiting for him. "I don't know what to do here," says the devil. "You are on my list but I have no room for you. You definitely have to stay here, so I'll tell you what I'm going to do. I've got three folks here who weren't quite as bad as you. I'll let one of them go, but you have to take their place. I'll even let YOU decide…

The reason TY doesn't want a Politics forum here...

With the campaign season kicking off and the candidates working hard to raise funds, some candidates have already dropped out of the race as they have not raised enough money to continue. McCain has had to cut his staff in recent days. Both of the 2 front running Democratic candidates have raised over 30 million in the last reporting period. I am surprised that Obama has been able to keep up with the Clinton machine. Very impressive in my opinion. Does all this money give a gadge of who the party is leaning toward? and who will get the nomination in the end? Of course my favorite candidate has raised very little money and is the only one who is truly for peace imme…

Though those of us in the neighborhood who have been waiting for the opening of the new Whole Foods Market in the brand new GLBT Center on Halsted Street in Chicago for months now are really excited about having the store in our 'hood, the more important aspect of this story is how a major retailer has recognized the value of GLBT customers in its business plans and has formed a joint project with the community which will support the center with an A credit quality tenant which will provide revenues to support programs for gay, lesbian, bi and transgendered youth in our community. This is precisely the kind of quasi-community/business partnerships that the gay community …

Spending a great deal of time in Thailand, I grew to know Red Bull very well. It orginates there. Also, all the sauna boys in Brazil want one when you get them a drink. Why? Well, now we know. What's Inside: Red Bull Patrick Di Justo Meat Sugar, Caffeine, and Bile! Glucose Like most popular soft drinks, Red Bull is largely sugar water. But don't count on its glucose to "give you wings," as the ad says. Multiple studies have debunked the so-called sugar high. Taurine Also known as 2-aminoethanesulfonic acid, taurine was originally isolated from bull bile in 1827. Now made synthetically, it is the magical elixir said to bring out the kitesurfing extremophile in …

The worst movie that I have seen in a long time is Delta Farce. I was coaxed into seeing this with a friend last night. I was not excited about it but I never walk out of movies. Well, never say never. The comedy was not funny. It was stupid which I expected. But, when you can see scenes with the microphone in the top of the screen to catch sound, you know you are in for a real treat. Am I just getting too old to understand this humor? Or, did anyone actually sit through this movie and enjoy it. I walked out after about 20 minutes.

What is the correct thing to do when you encounter an escort who you have previously hired in a public place? Ignore him? Say hi and move on? Initiate a conversation?

MOTHER LEARNS LATE IN LIFE TO ACCEPT GAY SON AS HE IS DEAR ABBY: My husband and I raised our two sons and two daughters. One son and both daughters married well. Our other son, "Neil," is gay. He and his partner, "Ron," have been together 15 years, but Neil's father and I never wanted to know Ron because we disapproved of their lifestyle. When I was 74, my husband died, leaving me in ill health and nearly penniless. No longer able to live alone, I asked my married son and two daughters if I could "visit" each of them for four months a year. (I didn't want to burden any one family, and thought living out of a suitcase would be best for everyone.) All three turned…

Repeating my query originally posted in a different section here: How does one access one's Inbox with the new forum software? I see one way to send a private message to a member, namely by clicking on the Member menu item above, then clicking on the name of the member to get a drop-down menu that includes the option to send a message. But I don't see how to get to my own Inbox. Details: http://www.maleescortreview.com/forum/inde...?showtopic=1565

Well I am going to take a chance and head for Southern Decadence this year. This will be my first trip back to New Orleans since before Katrina.i am pretty antsy about this as I know I will cry-but hopefully I will find some distractions from my recherche du temps perdu...

On July 10th the Kathy Griffith show-My Life on the D List-will feature her performance at this years GatVN awards in SanFrancisco. She is hilarious and there is a lot of interaction with the crowd. A don't miss for MERmen!

Show your pride guys! Gay Pride is the hallmark of the modern gay right's movement. It means that we won't take shit from homophobes, straight boys or closet cases anymore! In other words, "We're here! We're queer! Get used to it!" The essential premise of gay pride is that you can't choose your sexual orientation and that sexual diversity is a gift to society. In parades, posters and rallies, gay pride is symbolized by the rainbow flag and the Greek lambda symbol. Some gay rights organizations also use black or pink triangles as symbols, although that is going out of style – if for no other reason than it's so hard to choose an outfit when nothing really goes with p…

The new movie was much darker than the others. It was enjoyable to watch but I just didn't like it as much as the other movies. Harry and the other actors are growing up fast and did an OK job with the movie. I did enjoy all the cool efffects that they did throughout the movie. The first 200 pages of the book were covered in the first 10 min of the movie and a lot was left out but the producers did an OK job with the story. It is wonderful to see the progression of JK's novels change. I am also excited to see the last book in 9 days.

Having gone to law school many years ago, I have always kept an interest in Court decisions. I try to read them as often as I can. This term has produced some really bitting comments from the justices. CNN had a nice article to sum things up. WASHINGTON (CNN) -- One Supreme Court justice says his fellow conservatives are "too dismissive" of government efforts to ensure racial diversity in schools. Another more liberal member says those on the right did "serious violence" to a high school student's free speech rights. And one conservative slams another for "faux judicial restraint." These were some of the heated written exchanges contained in the final decisions hand…

Watching all the past shows, I must admit this show is addicting for me. I loved the last season and have been anxious to see the cast members for this season. There are some real hotties in there and of course, there are 2 gay guys. I didn't like the first episode, when asked for pet peeves, the gay hairdresser said "straight people." Perhaps he meant it as a joke. There are some great muscle boys on the show this year as well.

OK. I admit it. I still check Ben's blog every week hoping that he will write some more. Today, he had a new entry and some very hot eye candy. Some sex boys there! Oz http://www.benjaminnicholas.com/blogger.html

Briefly, I logged in yesterday in order to post. I did my thing and logged off. This morning I'm back to the forums, and find that my log off didn't take. I am now able to post on the strength of yesterday's log in, without starting again from scratch and without the top of the page telling me Welcome, though my screen name shows on the bottom of the page as a user. I don't consider this a problem, but I do wonder if I am logged in for life and will never have to go through the exercise again. Is anybody else experiencing the same thing?

Well, having played with mine for a while now, I can honestly say that the gadget is incredible. I have really enjoyed it. First, you don't get your phone number or activate the phone at the ATT store. You only get a box and you hook the phone up to your ITunes and follow the directions to activate the phone, get your number, and choose a plan. I have always done this inside the store but now, with the Iphone it is all on line. The battery has lasted a long time and no issues there. So far I have not ran out of the battery power. I have used it many times and played on the internet with it and it never got low on me. I was in Best Buy with a friend and my phone rang …
