Lucky

Not going to happen, I say with compassion. I lived in New York on 9-11, so I saw the unity and compassion that developed in the aftermath of the WTC destruction. I was there during the great power blackout. People let their compassion out then, too. And then, with time, the passion draws back into the shell. So, it's there, inside most of us. But when life gets busy again, we all withdraw into our more daily selves, and that means we need to cope with the stresses of everyday life. If we could create a constant state of post 9-11, then we could have compassion everyday. But, I commend lookin for being the advocate of revealing our more compassionate selves. He could become pastor to MER if he wants to.

Watching the Yankee game tonight, we have to see the feed from the visiting Kansas City Royals. They just interviewed their new, $7.5 million dollar draft pick, young Bubba Starling. Bubba had to choose between playing college football or signing for this small sum with the Royals, and he chose baseball! Bubba's online pix aren't so hot, unless he smiles:

Should this not be posted in the European section? Cooks in London does not seem to be of general interest!

I saw this article today: "Blogging is not for the thin-skinned." Posting, being similar, is probably not for the thin-skinned either. When you put up a post, you lose all control over how people respond to it. They may not respond at all, which tells you how interesting your post was perceived to be. Or, they may take it a different route than you intended. At least you started something. Rarely does a post win you accolades from all. So you take the response you get or you don't bother posting. If you don't like the responses you get, you can shrug it off, or try to make your next post a little better. Or at least conducive to more favorable responses. But asking intimate questions reminds one that we are essentially strangers here. I am not going to ask you how many times a day you fart, but that doesn't mean you can't ask. Just don't get all bothered when some don't like the question! We don't owe anyone an answer to a question posed here, and you don't answer to me as to what you can post. That's the way it is. If you want to get upset and take your ball and go home, I can't stop you. But consider the lack of answers to your question and maybe rethink what you want to know. As for me being pissed at you,well, it's 112 degrees here and I sweat out all the piss I had, so there is none left to get pissed at anyone! Or is that TMI?

No, it didn't work. It just made it look like you had nothing to do that day. Have you ever considered that these intimate moments are private and that people don't want to go on record about them just because you ask? Do you really think it is okay to just ask any question that pops into your head or do you actually think first?

Well, reject it then! If a party making an argument can make you feel lacking in your own point of view, then he is only using a standard debating tactic. Don't sucker into stuff like that! It's the job of the other point of view to undermine your argument, and one thing he is going to do is try to undermine your faith in your own argument. If he can make you feel guilty for not supporting the kid, then he will. It's you that has to not let him do that.

Popular (at least here) Warbler Telly Leung ("Glee," Pacific Overtures), Uzo Aduba (Coram Boy), Nick Blaemire (Cry-Baby) and Morgan James (The Addams Family) will join the previously announced Hunter Parrish in the upcoming Broadway revival of Godspell. Godspell will play at the Circle in the Square Theatre. Their blurb reads: Prepare ye for Godspell, the beloved classic from Stephen Schwartz (Wicked, Pippin).

Join the celebration as an ensemble of Broadway’s best performs the greatest story ever told. Synopsis: The Gospel according to St. Matthew, 1970's style. As Jesus taught with parables and storytelling, Godspell utilizes clowning, pantomime, charades, acrobatics and vaudeville to tell the story of Christ's passion.

Well, we did have a pretty good discussion on the subject. The pros and cons were well-stated. Ultimately, what we think is of no relevance as we don't get to decide what happens to the case.

No, just a Hoosier!

Oh, no! Are we going to pick on yet another young escort who is only trying to make a...Nigeria, you say? Okay then, carry on.

"One thing I do agree with Lucky about, was the Legislator trying to impress the kid by telling him too much about himself." I always like it when we can agree! Then, of course, to hear the young man say: ""I didn't want anything out of it. When I saw him, he was an older gentleman that was really old and I didn't want anything to do with that," Gibson told Eyewitness News." I didn't realize that Gibson is black until I saw the interview. A tiny bit of added interest in conservative Indiana. The anti-gay lawmaker goes for black teen boys...hmmm?

Why is this young kid in Indiana who advertised on Craigslist being held to the same standards of escorting as a Benjamin Nicholas would be? Did he take a class or get a certificate that told him all of these rules we are now talking about? As far as he knew, he was with a cop- a "lawmaker." Not good from his point of view. But rather than let him back out, the old fart held him against his will and exposed himself to him. He did not out the guy, the guy outed himself the minute he pulled the legislative ID. What a dumb move on his part. A move that has him in the news instead of remembering fondly a blow job in a Marriott hotel!

What a strange board this is becoming wherein the anti-gay right wing legislator gets more support than the young kid who finds himself in a situation he cannot handle because that very same legislator cannot maintain his values and feels it necessary to imprison a kid against his will.

Hitoseems to have no ability to discriminate between good and evil and his constant defense of the those who oppress gays is just nauseating.

Your attitude is rather obnoxious. You seem to think that even the most evil people are to be thought kindly of no matter the harm they do. Perhaps you should focus on the pain they cause their victims and have some sympathy for them. As it is, you seem to be on the side of the devil, trying to minimize the dangers of evil and encourage more of it.

That really cute catcher for the Giants is Buster Posey, out for the season due to an injury. But, in a masterful tribute to how potent his massive cock is, on Sunday his wife gave birth to twins! Here is Buster trying to hold down a boner during a photo shoot:

Well, I can't tell the quality of the jeans by looking. I need to feel the material, see how well it is sewn, and check the zipper to see if it works properly. Then I need to check the back of the jeans, see how closely the rivets are drawn so as to hold the buttocks in proper form. I had an elderly friend once who was so forward with young men, always wanting to feel their jeans and ask what material it is. Then, as he stroked closer to the crotch, he'd ask how comfortable they were. Not one guy ever called him on it!

He did not violate the number one rule of escorting. If in fact he felt trapped and had to call his sister for help, then he openly did what was right to protect himself. If Mr, Legislator got outed as a result of imprisoning the kid, well tough tododoo. If, as I said above, he had just gone through with his agreement and had sex, then we would not be reading about him now. But he had to brag that he was a bigshot so this young kid would be impressed and overlook his physical decline. You may be young and handsome, but hey, I am a somebody and you're not! (Beyond that, Mr. Legislator is a creep. He wants sex for $80, and then suggests it could be extended into an overnight, with no increase in pay!)

"But, in Bangkok it is easy to find good long stay apartments." Unlike Brazil, of course. Could it be that the good Lord is trying to tell you something?

"A few gays I got to know were not a very good people when I was young and their life didn't ended well." You didn't kill them, did you?

Now the lad has his own Sunset boulevard billboard- sans shirt, of course. This marketing of nude children must stop! Until he is 18, no shirtless pix of him should be on billboards. Drivers could have accidents as they become distracted trying to figure out his age.

Well, um, okay. So why aren't you staying there? How does it compare to the one on Sathorn?

Hallelujah!!

With bad news seemingly insurmountable, management at MER has taken a new look at posting, and thus the decision has been made to make MER a happy place. No more negative posts, no look at the downside of things, no bad escort dates, and no massages without happy endings. All pix posted will be of the cutest guys imaginable, and they will have no acne or skidmarks in their underwear. Each poster, upon opening the page to MER will be dazzled by a brief blast of pleasant and soothing light, with the Vienna Boys Chorus singing Hallelujah lightly in the background. Anyone not posting something happy will find themselves sorting envelopes for the MER annual fund drive instead of enjoying the new, lighter MER. As a side bonus, after each ten posts, MER members will find that their face has become slightly smoother as their youthful luster returns in the Happy Land of mirth and MER. Now you know how bored I can actually become!
