3) Broken Brake Lights...and Sobriety Tests

I was in a bar earlier tonight and this black guy I have never met before comes over and says, I quote, "For a white boy, you have mad flavor."   I'm not really sure what "mad flavor" is, but I gots it.   So why would this stranger come over and say things I don't really understand? I guess I should start at the beginning. Well, not that far back, I don't think even my loyal reader would stick around to read this Blog Entry if I started at the beginning. So lets start from a beginning.   I

...And they all lived happily ever after.

It's a bit trite but I've always thought that was a lovely way to end a story.     Things have been very, VERY good with Richard. It hasn't quite been four months yet, so I know that's a bit premature to pin that particular ending to our story, but I truly do believe that'll be the last line.   Things have been great in general. All my personal and professional relationships seem to be going exceptionally well for this particular period of my life. I'm quite optimistic about the future,

Right to Die

I looked for topics about the right to die, but the one's I found were locked. I figured started a new one was a bad idea. So I'm going to talk about it here. I was watching an episode of Grey's Anatomy. A woman with cancer wanted to die, and it just so happened that a state where physician assisted suicide is legal, which is Washington. Only two other states allow such measures, Oregon and Montana, though in the latter, all that is allowed is the buying of a prescription that will kill you. Tex

Missing without meeting.

Hey yall,   This is something that has been bugging me recently. I wonder if there is anyone out there that has ever missed anyone that they have enver met, and heres why I ask.     My mothers dad died when she was just six or seven years old so it is pretty obvious that I have never met the man, but since I was I was a little boy I've missed him. As far back into my childhood as I can remember I've wanted to know him, and that was before I even knew anything about him or his life, I knew

My Guardian Angel

it's pretty bad when you can't sleep because your too busy worrying about a fictional character from your own story, and the way you left him in his current situation. When you get so caught up in the story that you can't write anymore because it hits way to close from home, and you don't want to ever relive the pain even if just though a story.   that being said, no I have no forgotten about Last Goodbye, I just honestly haven't had the time. I know yet I have time to write a new story right

Seven Ex-boyfriends that you don't Want

The Drunk     Fun and charming, the drunk loses some of his appeal when you sober up. After he's drank all your booze and pissed on your bed, the puke in your closet is the last straw.   The problem with drunks is that they forget that you threw them out. You have to break up with them dozens of times for it to take. Even then, they show up drunk and horny at 2am or make those wonderful calls in the middle of the night.   The only sure way to get rid of them: tell them about how well yo

Bathhouse Etiquette

So I am told bathhouses are so last decade... I disagree There is a great one in San Jose, Calif called the Water Gardens. For those who are so inclined, you can look it up.   But for some strange reason, there seems to be a severe shortage of manners and etiquette from not just the young men that are here but lacking from the older gentlemen as well.   So I decided to share my experience and advice freely to anyone who will listen and maybe make it a better place for all   10) Wear sho

The Importance of Being Honest

No, I'm not going to post a lecture on honesty, nor any other virtue of a noble gentleman.   I came across a very interesting chart:     And with all due respect to the ideas of socialism and welfare state that we all enjoy as members of the Western civilization, I'd like to point out, that in 1938 Czechoslovakia was at the same economical level as Austria and Finland (and e.g. better than Italy). What followed was the 1938-1945 Nazi rule - and despite that we were the first country from

MacBeth by TNT Theatre Britain

So I'm just back from the play |MACBETH| performed by TNT Theatre Britain in our school theatre.   And I'm so blown away!!   The performance of those mere six actors/actresses are just stunning. Esp, the three witches by Mark Prince, Gail Sixsmith and Rebecca Naylor; Lady MacBeth by Gail Sixsmith; and MacDuff by Roger Clark. And it doesn't hurt that Mark Prince and Roger Clark are cute.   It was my first time in a play, (come to think of it, not). Anyways, the experience was just out of

" - It was Midnight when you left me . - "

These Memories we made, they play redundantly in my head, and they can't seem to slip out of my mind too easily.   It hurts not being able to Grasp them with my own hands. The pain doesn't get easier each passing day. But I'm still holding on to all those letters you wrote to me, holding them with my heart. ... I whisphered something into the wind, hoping to leave a dent in the air, "I Love You..." But it was already lost in the night that was engulfed by no

ACLU Letter to the Texas Board of Education

In my last blog entry I expressed outrage at the proposed changes to curriculum in Texas. This article has recently been posted on the Texas ACLU website. They, along with the NAACP, have drafted and sent a letter to the Texas Board of Education. While the ACLU did not yet suggest there were going to take litigious action, they did use legal precedents. I think this could be a huge legal battle that redefines what state boards of education can and cannot do, at least that is my hope. It was seve

2010 US Census

I'm at a bit of a loss. For those that don't quite understand why their Chicano and Latino friends are a bit bemused this week, Hispanic is no longer considered a race by the census. It's an ethnicity. I'm not entirely certain of the difference, or why the various Chinese races were lumped together but Japanese, Vietnamese, and Korean were separated out.   As I mentioned in one of my first entries, I am racially mixed.

checking in

for the record, I don't have gay-dar I have asshole-dar and its working like a mother-f**ker.   perhaps I should explain, then again I really dont have the energy.   long story short this guy has been coming into my work (when it wasnt burnt) and ordering a sandwich from the subway and he'd sit and eat and we'd look at each other in off moments and what not. I passed it off as whatever. Sure he was/is good looking but, I dunno life doesn't work like that for me. Anyhow ran into him on a site

- " We Danced till Midnight . " -

- " Just a lonely boy who fell in love. "     At times when I feel so alone, I would dance and dance the pain away.   ... - One Day He saw me dance, and I stopped in fear.   But he ordered me not to stop, and that was when I thought my heart would have stopped.     It felt like magic when the harmony of his words stole my heart, as he took hold of my hand, and we danced to the rhythm of my heartbeat.   I gave into him whithout any hesistation,

I'm pissed

So here's what's going on. Apparently, the f**king morons who come up with curriculum plans for the entire state of Texas basically want to throw away basic facts and replace it all with revisionist history and junk science. Education should not have a political sway, but the damn Republicans in Texas want to ruin education for every single child in Texas for the next ten years and it f**king pisses me off.   http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/13/education/13texas.html

Back to Billy Joel

Thanks to the wonders of YouTube, I can explore some tunes I haven't listened to in decades.   Oh... you don't like Billy Joel. Yeah sure, I doubt you've heard much of it.   Try it. You'll like it.

the week that seemed as a day

its pretty late, I should be asleep.   i've been legit sober for about 2 days now, no weed and I don't drink enough (right now) to even count that. the reason for that is I have zero money and neither do my friends so we can't pinch a sack.   if I had money I would clearly purchase, but---- the feeling is nice to be 'sober'. I say that loosely as there are people in the world whose sober days are way more intense than my pussy crap. my head feels pretty heavy but its nice to know i just hav

- ;; . a Love Note written by a man in his own Foreign Language . ;; -

I was not disguested by the homosexuality of the boy I loved, but I was rather disgusted by how the world treated us in vain; as if we were anything less than human.   It did not matter, because when you start to care deeply enough, you lose sight of the real world.   ...   You know you've fallen in love when you don't want to fall asleep, because finally, reality is better than a dream.   Let our hands intertwine endlessly, do not be ashamed of confessing to the w

What about Love?

They told me not to go down this path, But you told me to listen only to my heart.   Both ways are the answers, but yet both hold such undesirable consequnces. There is only one answer, one opportunity, one chance...   and only one way:   Can you hear me calling for you?

;; It's Hard -

Underneath the Stars, is Where you will always find me. and I know that you will come back one day.   Pride can stand a thousand trials, and the strong will never fall. But watching stars without you, My soul cries. My heaving heart is so full of pain   I never thought I would get hurt like this. Everyday, life still goes on like this. I wish I could find a way to not cry As Time passes by.   You never let me know it, You never let it show. Because you loved me and if yo
