  1. Maybe if he'd won it a few times, but one win does not greatness make. I'm fairly certain there must be some other significant sport moments in the UK (football, tennis, golf, yachting, swimming, gymnastics or even cricket) that must be rank above this. If not, I feel sorry for you British sport fans. lol

    Chapter 1

    Thanks, I'm glad you found it informative, as well as interesting. I know it's not all inclusive, but hopefully it will give those wondering a brief background on famous gay and bisexual personalities, as well as some societies where it waas deemed acceptable.
  3. You mean grass isn't supposed to be brown? You certainly won't find much corn as high as an elephant's eye this year, but the food prices might get there. With the grains in short supply, the animals aren't getting the same amount of feed, so they aren't growing and will be sold off early. Then there will be a shortage of meat, and don't forget the milk. Cows need to drink lots of water to produce large quantities of milk. I wonder how long this is going to last?

    Yes, I had to pick and choose a little when we came to some of the categories. I thought about Ellen and Rosie, but seeing they are mostly known as talk show hosts any more, I didn't know where exactly to include them. The gays in concentration camps wore pink triangles, where the Jews wore yellow stars of David. I'm sure there were other insignias to indicate the other groups as well. I'm glad you enjoyed this and found it somewhat informative, if not totally inclusive.

    Golf

    I like Mickelson, but there are some young guns out there that may end up showing up their elders. Sure, I mention Phil Mickelso and he's way, way, WAY back in the pack. I'm not even sure he can see the leaders with binoculars. lol
  6. I just hope this security snafu, with the company not hiring enough security personnel, doesn't create problems and end up spoiling an otherwise great experience.

    Chapter 1

    “Mr. Hammond, you’re gay? Right?” one of my students asked. I’m a history teacher and don’t generally advertise this fact, for obvious reasons, but I won’t deny the truth either. “Yes, I am,” I admitted. “Why do you ask?” “My father says that gays, or guys who do stuff like that, have never done anything important or ever become really famous,” the boy responded. “Is that true?” “I would definitely say it is not,” I replied, “but claims of that nature are sometimes hard to prove or di

    No Way!

    Prompted by a question from one of his students, Mr. Hammond proceeds to fill the class in about the background a multitude of famous gays, lesbians and bisexuals. He also gives them a brief lesson on the history of homosexuality.
  9. The more things change, the more they stay the same. Let's hope that will change in the very near future.
  10. Yes, it is expensive, but it means new things are on the horizon. It may take a while, but when the price comes down or it eventually becomes a generic drug, it could have wide use.
  11. Happy Birthday Em. I hope it's a great one.
  12. Just thought some of you might find this intesting. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/07/16/truvada-fda-hiv-prevent_n_1677020.html
  13. Happy Birthday, Sara! Have a great day.
  14. I've been with good-looking partners that were ugly on the inside, so I'll go with what's inside is more important.
  15. Probably just one of Putin's relatives.
  16. Here's a list of the most frequently challenged books, due to their gay content. How many are you familiar with? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/07/12/books-challenged-for-gay-content_n_1668306.html#slide=1222176
  17. This may or may not be what you're looking for, but one thing I do is make an outline before I start writing. I write down how I want the story to begin and then I write down how I expect it to end. Then I try to fill in the area in between by listing all of the ideas I have about what I want to happen in the story. I often make additions to this outline as I write and other ideas come to me, and sometimes I change the ending I originally forewsaw, but it usually helps me get from point A (the beginning) to point B (the end). I hope that helps.
  18. Thank you for your kind words and I'm glad you were touched and appreciate the characters. I can't wait to hear your reaction to the other books in this series.
  19. Happy Birthday Renee. May all your wishes come true. Sorry, I'm still here. lol
  20. James, I'm glad you're continuing to enjoy this story and that you liked the ghost story. I used to tell them to my kids and their friends whenever we went camping and they were always a big hit.
  21. James, thank you for your kind words and I hope you continue to enjoy this series. There's certainly enough between the 10 books to occupy you for a good portion of the summer, if that's what you wanted. lol
  22. Yes, Panda. You must be tired. Do you know what a cock ring is? Well, when you don't have much, you make do with what's available. If that is cotton string, then he may be using it to tie off strategic areas, to delay orgasm and prolong the pleasure. Since he refers to himself as the Upper House, I assume he's the pitcher, so that explains Vaseline. I think you can figure the rest out from there. lol
  23. New information has come to light. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/07/12/india-government-buys-gandhi-letters-to-stop-auction_n_1668466.html?utm_hp_ref=gay-voices&icid=maing-grid7%7Cmain5%7Cdl37%7Csec1_lnk3%26pLid%3D178495
  24. This decision may not come as a surprise, but the Episcopal Church the first denomination to acknowledge same-sex relationships, compared to the Presbyterian Church's recent failure do something similar. .
  25. I just thought I'd pass this article along to those who are interested. Is this the first of a series of changes? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/07/10/episcopal-church-gay-couples-same-sex-blessings_n_1663291.html?ref=topbar
