My guess is that it will be a battle of the Davids.

I think we're probably going to see an All David Finale. David Cook's Billie Jean and Little Sparrow from a few weeks ago absolutely rocked. David Archuleta has that little cherub look going on. And the boy can really sing too. They both sound good on CD when in the car. I'll buy both their CDs when they come out.

I've found that I have to laugh at my misfortune. I absolutely despise hair on myself. Arms, legs, and even belly wouldn't bother me much. It's the hair on the buns and back that drives me up a wall. And the other thing is that the vast majority of people, as seen from the sampling above, are not overly fond of it either... getting rid of the hair is next on my agenda after getting rid of these last few pounds of baggage.

Well... I can't stand body hair. And when I turned 18, I found out God was a woman and hated me... because I turned into a friggin Yeti. It is something I have learned to put up with. I have hair everywhere except my palms (ironically) and the souls of my feet. I even have hobbit style hair tufts on the top of my feet. I trim back the forest on my back and my chest. Laser hair removal IS in my future. Shaving my face is another issue. I have 5 o'clock shadow by noon. I have stubble by 5 o'clock. I have what some of you wannabe facial hair people would call a full beard in about 3 days. and I can't stand the hair. I figure it's my punishment in life... When I was on vacation in Florida last October, my friends talked me into removing my shirt by the pool. Some little snot of a kid asked his mother if I was Big Foot. Said mother suddenly realized they had somewhere else to be. She appologized on her way by. *sigh*

bah, hum bug! hum bug I say! :mace:

Yikes! It has been awhile, hasn't it? For those of you that don't know this by now, I get up about an hour early every morning to take care of emails and other Site related stuff. I generally eat breakfast while doing this. Then it is all day at work. When I get home, I boot back up the computer and spend an hour or two taking care of email and posts on the site. This is every weekday. Weekends are much the same, except I don't have to go to work. Lately, I have been writing. I'm working on 3 different stories at the moment. A new Psionic Corp future state (spaceship future) that I haven't titled yet; a Valdemar (by Mercedes Lackey) FanFiction that is set between Brightly Burning and Exile's Valor in that time frame where there is nothing cannon; and the Harry Potter and the Parliament of Dreams Chapter 3 rewrite. I am also working on eliminating problems on the Gay Authors site and designing a new look that is easy and straightforward to navigate and find things. In the meantime, I have put some search functions in to make it easier for people to find things. In addition to all that, I'm keeping my eye on the future. There is some new software that I'm testing for the site. There are a raft of software updates for the site that I will be installing this weekend. I will be taking a break to get more achievements on my Xbox 360 though. Hopefully, none of you begrudge me that.

Have they gone stale? No. As some of you may know, I am a Harry Potter Fanfiction Nut. If I'm bored and have a few minutes, I usually pull one of them up. There are over 350,000 of them on just FanFiction these days. Granted tons of them suck, but there are some real gems in there. and that's just one little subset of one type of genre. As other people may know, I'm a huge Mercedes Lackey fan. (Last Herald-Mage Trilogy rocks) She writes primarily in the Fantasy genre. Main stream NYT best selling author that happens to have an affinity for writing stories about teen boys. And gay teen boys too. I read a new fanfiction based in her Valdemar world that really really rocks. The author tells me he'll be posting in eFiction here soon. Quite talented. My personal preferences for stories are: Fantasy and Hard Science Fiction. Especially with a gay protagnist or short of that, a teen guy. Fantasy and Science fiction can never get old because you can always come up with something new. It is just a matter of who is posting here and elsewhere on the net at any given time. Most of us can read far faster than writer's can write. Myr

I am guilty on my site of having half the statuses listed. It is on my list of things to do as I redo the site. It is also on my list of things to do as I redo GA. The Story Archive also has a status listed. (I can't promise that it is up to date though)

I'm allergic to cigarette smoke. It gives me a nasty migraine fairly quickly. This, in turn, gives me some homicidal urges. (You don't want to be around when I have those) Needless to say, I spend very little time around people that smoke. Even the smoke-smell that clings to clothes will trigger it on me. (just slower than actually being around the smoking) Congratulations on quitting! My grandfather died at age 51 largely because of his smoking.

One of the pet peeves of most online writers is the lack of feedback. Tons more people read than ever say anything back. That is why, as an author, I try to make sure that sure that I at least drop a little note back to someone on the latest chapter I read. I'm much less diligent with ongoing fanfiction stories though. Mostly because that is on FanFiction.net and keeping logged in on that site is too much of a hassle. Any way, I bumped into some really high quality stories on Nifty. Unfortunately, there is no way to find all the author's work. It is spread through a couple of different categories. As it was particularly good, I sent the writer a note. I didn't hear anything back. I didn't think much about it. I figured it probably got caught in the spam filter or some such. I kind of forgot about the author, but I tripped over a new story he had written. It was, again, very good. So I sent out another message. I haven't heard back, again. Now, I must say, as an author, I always reply back when someone emails me. I check through my junk mail folder every day. I'm sure I've missed one or two over the years, but I make a strong effort to get back to anyone that takes the time to write to me. When someone doesn't, it is rather annoying. This author, whom I'm not going to mention, by the way, would be offered a Hosted Author spot here at Gay Authors. Though, I'm not sure I'd do that now, given the sloth that the author is showing.

Yup. I loved the making of the Ford Commercial video. Did you notice David up on that ladder? quite the nice little bubblebutt going on.

Are you an exhibitionist? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml.../13/wgay113.xml

I could probably tell you. But I think I should speak to the head of the Indoctrination Center and ensure that this oversight is corrected.

Happy Birthday!

It was a really good night. Luke went first and sucked hard. I'm hoping he gets the axe. I suspect the other to get the axe is either Danny or Cheezy (here's hoping!)

He did sing well tonight. Simon could be heard off camera as the song cut away saying something about "male stripper" to Paula. MMM lol

Well everyone, we answered the question on David Hernadez... he's with us. http://votefortheworst.com/20080229/closer http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D8...;show_article=1 http://www.breitbart.tv/html/57094.html Male stripper for mostly male club... Danny Noriega being naughty: http://www.breitbart.tv/html/56964.html Then there is that powerhouse singer David Archuleta: http://newsroom.mtv.com/2008/02/29/america...r=rssFeedBurner http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1582685/2...r=rssFeedBurner

I was hoping someone would post something here... lol I think he's moved up in my liking HOT: http://votefortheworst.com/20080229/closer

IF you haven't seen this yet... it is funny as hell. Watch the bottom video First! http://news.aol.com/entertainment/televisi...225070109990001 Myr

I can't believe how well David Archuleta can sing. Danny wants a big piece of David. He's all but drooling on him. lol

For the record, we use php mostly to insert menus and common things. For example, on a story, there are links to all the chapters and the main index of that story for many of our authors. with php, we update those links once, and it appears on all chapters. The end result to the user (you) is an html file that already has all the stuff because the server puts that information in when you go to view it. We will not be offering that option in the near term. We may consider it as part of a premium service for Gay Authors. (it costs us a non-inconsiderable amount of money each month to keep Gay Authors open for everyone)

Damn! They eliminated Colton. Danny looked like he was going to cry. He was also shocked over Garrett's leaving. (That's two young guys that Danny probably wanted. lol) Chiekeze should have been zapped. he sucked. Girls I wasn't paying much attention to...
