Zombie and James this is the lounge, not the soapbox. Don't kill our buzz with politics and social issues Drinking through your rectum is news to me, sounds like it might be to others. Now as Brian griffin would ask : "who's leg do you need to hump to get a dry Martini around here?"

I just remembered an old line some one once said that "Your ass is a natural exit and not a natural entrance", when invoked against gay guys. Well, the University of Tennessee has just dis-proven that myth, it can be an entrance for other things too, huh! Where's Mike, I want to Toast his native state for this groundbreaking news? I know Conner, I should not be laughing at someone's misery, but the jokes can go on forever.

Read this article, if you dare: http://www.cnn.com/2012/09/25/us/tennessee-fraternity-suspended/index.html?hpt=hp_t3 (CNN) -- Twelve students at the University of Tennessee have been cited for underage drinking, one for disorderly conduct and a fraternity chapter suspended after a weekend incident involving alcohol enemas in which one student was hospitalized, a university spokeswoman said. "Upon extensive questioning, it is believed that members of the fraternity were using rubber tubing inserted into their rectums as a conduit for alcohol as the abundance of capillaries and blood vessels present greatly heightens the level and speed of the alcohol entering the bloodstream as it bypasses the filtering by the liver," Knoxville Police Dept spokesman Darrell DeBusk said Monday in a statement. The student, who was taken to the UT Medical Center in critical condition with a blood alcohol level of 0.40 -- five times the legal cutoff for driving -- has been released, the hospital said. Spokeswoman Karen Simsen said that hazing does not appear to have been involved. "It's just an incident involving alcohol," she said. The Pi Kappa Alpha International Fraternity said it had administratively suspended the school's Zeta Chapter and was investigating the incident, which occurred early Saturday. "The recent allegations against these individuals have come as a complete shock to The Pi Kappa Alpha International Fraternity, its 15,000 undergraduate members and over 200,000 living alumni, family and friends," the statement said. "Pi Kappa Alpha's mission is to develop men of integrity, intellect and high moral character and to foster a truly lifelong fraternal experience. These alleged activities are clearly not consistent with that mission, nor are they representative of what the fraternity would expect from any of its members." The suspension will last for 30 days or until a decision is made regarding the long-term status of the chapter, the fraternity office said. According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, 1,825 college students between the ages of 18 and 24 die each year from alcohol-related unintentional injuries. ___________________ So, I was doing it the wrong way throughout college, alcohol belongs at the other end of your body I wonder how did the frat guys know about the rectum trick, I mean I've never heard of it before today. Thought this was funny for everyone to get a good laugh and share in the lounge, hope it is not too age inappropriate.

Yeah, but the call was so obvious even I noticed it and I am blind in one eye Seriously, the only real people that could scare the owners and NFL are the sponsors. Get Proctor and Gamble, Coca Cola, and some other guys to play hardball for our game and things will settle down. However, I do have to admit I am loving this controversy over these games as it brings some outside drama for my post-game.

Happy Birthday Yettie ! Enjoy the fun and games, plus zombie's New York fireman

2nd seasons better, They've already ordered a third season. As for camera angles, it's shot for gritty texture. I'd like to call it the bastard child of "V" and Jericho, which ended too early. Join the revolution James I thought you'd like seeing gun toting roughnecks and a scifi series that doesn't so far disappoint with its ideas on freedom or humanity. Maybe you're just upset they didn't do it for southerners instead of New England backwoods. Jk

I hope I am not the only one with an interest in this little Science Fiction gem among the weeds that we are getting on TV. http://www.fallingsk...r/falling-skies I am still pissed at TNT for cancelling "Crusade" of the Babylon 5 universe, but I will forgive them if their executives can let this show go on for a 5 season run. I am bias, because the series is Bostonian, but I can't help it. A rag tag group of militia citizen soldiers form a resistance group called 2nd Mass try to fight against an alien invasion, led by a history professor.. * Jamessavik: I think this is what you were waiting for in a good sci-fi show, if you haven't come on board, get on with me. PS: It's a Steven Speilberg production, too !

I started it and began my introductions into the story
W_L posted a blog entry in Life is worth an entry
Okay, I have started it and began my introductions into the characters. http://www.gayauthors.org/forums/story/w-l/thebigsqueeze There are three perspectives in this story with 2008 Financial crisis as its moving plot point. I am creating a modern gay business fiction story with technical details embedded in the story and descriptions on how modern finance actually works. My three characters present three views from which forms the greatest crisis of our recent history: Mike- the actuarial view of the Financial Crisis from a position at US treasury Matt- the Financial view of the Financial Crisis from a position at Morgan Stanley Brad- the legal view of the Financial Crisis from a position as Legal consultant during the process I am an accountant by trade, but I wasn't always an accountant by education. If things were slightly different, I could have been in finance or economics. I have great deal of respect for Actuaries and their doom scenarios, so I want to highlight that field in my story. Tell me if this is a type of story that you guys might like? -
Introductions (Mike’s perspective) For confidentiality, I don’t want anyone to know me, my twin brother, or my boyfriend’s full names. No, I am not worried about being out, the federal government has a pretty good non-discrimination policy in place now with President Obama in the hot seat and my boss is open-minded. My brother is basically a millionaire and doesn’t give a rat’s ass what anyone thinks. My partner is a corporate lawyer, who would sue you for every cent you

Author’s Note: I know most people probably assume my stories are all just too mental for comfortable reading, especially in my works in science fiction and fantasy genres. Well, I asked myself, what is exacting and interesting field that I could write in? I am basically a trained accountant. I got credentials from both a Master’s Degree and the US treasury Department. However, before I studied accounting, I was an economics-finance major as I started College in

Three men and their perspectives of the Great Financial Crisis of 2008. Each with their own views and personalities, but sharing one singular event that held the world's breath.

My words can be innuendo, not exactly political, but can be. Take them at face value without deep thought and they're just comments and opinions of food and tastes. Besides, I freely admit to liking white meat from kfc The logo is generic and looked like a five year olds etch-a-sketch of a chicken. Neither point is political or social, unless you go deeper into meanings of white meat and chicken as racial and gay slang. Or look at the word "fabulous" as a distinctively gay concept.

It's a cute name, but one that should not be spread around in pre-school, elementary school, or... you get what I mean. Tet, didn't your parents ever have pet names for you, when you were a kid. Gaybies is just a way of expressing affection, like I used puppies in the same regards above (I've known a lot of people with a bunch of kids, who call them their pups, ) A label is just what people make it, don't let that define your kids or you. Who knows, you might be raising an entire hockey team of big bulky boys and girls, who no one would ever call gaybies without getting their teeth knocked out by a hockey stick

Alright, I am going to Reinvent myself and my writing
W_L posted a blog entry in Life is worth an entry
I am going to try to reinvent myself and my stories. I really do write too cerebral for my own good or readers. I need to create a story with characters people can easily understand, plots that are fact filled but not going to be too rich with connections, and a concept that people get right away. I love economics and business issues, but I don't use it as the basis of my writing. I don't know why, since I've read freakonomics several times and know it can be fun. I mean I write stories with politics and other social issues, but economics and business never appear enough in my stories. So I am announcing right now that I am writing a general fiction story. with a business focus No one on GA has ever done a story about the professional gay guys or our work in business, so I'll try to trail blaze a new path and genre. There will be no tie-ins to my science fiction universe, no magic, no theological debates about life and God, and no aliens. I am starting from scratch and writing a story that I've never done before. It won't provide you with as much cerebral or mind fucking exposition, but it will be something different. W.L. is reinventing himself, get ready world ! -
Well, we could talk about the stupid Chic-fil-a logo and how "un-fabulous" it is That's gay and lounge material right!

There must be something wrong with me, but Zombie, you are starting to sound "tempered" with the point of fact no-nonsense demeanor. Zombie is right chick fill a is a political/religious/economic issue. However, lets instead talk about their food compared to KFC or even crappy Publix. I've only had it once, but I am sticking with the colonel and his white meat Kentucky fried chicken.

I'd love gaybies, but then again, I want puppies too. Can't i have both? (Imagining a litter of horny gay puppies) Honestly, I know I need a partner before I think about kids.

I saw this movies years ago and thought it was funny back then, now I am still laughing, but for other reasons: My fellow Americans 1996 http://youtu.be/uYgaEQXYtG0 My favorite line in the movie is in this particular part during a Gay Pride Parade: A Gay guy in Dorothy Drag shocked to see the former Democratic ex-President: "Oh My God, Are you coming out?" The ex-Democratic President: "No, I've always supported gay rights...I'm not coming out...he is" pointing to the Republican ex-President The gay guy in Drag smiles at the Republican ex-president, who takes notice Republican ex-President suspiciously ask the Democrat ex-President, "Are you talking about me?" 16 years later the jokes are dated, but the politics haven't changed much.

Liberals and Conservatives don't understand business
W_L posted a blog entry in Life is worth an entry
I think there's a piece of us in each other, liberal and conservative, which is what makes us fight so hard against the other. As an accountant by education and trade, I have to be very stern and tight fisted with my firm's money and spending. I won't give you an extra penny that you do not deserve, because one penny taken away from one person, means some one else has to pay for it. That's how I have to operate or else the vultures will come circling. When I first started my job, I was pretty loose with expense policy and allowed people a bit of leeway, if they could prove that their spending was necessary and vital. However, as times have gotten tougher and tougher, I had to be tighter as well. I hate having to proposed budget cuts, but I still do it, because it preserves people's jobs at least that's how I figured it. Every 50K, I can save from the bottom line means one person gets to hold onto their position, keep their houses, and even put food on the table. I am not a miser for no reason or to protect my own job, because to be honest, I am paid about the same as many of these same folks, no more and no less after so many years and promotions in my title and authority. I never asked for more money. Do I regret it? Yes, but I am happy to see other people keep their jobs in the last 3 years that I've been here. On that point, you can say I have a little liberal inside me. I freely admit to caring about my firm's employees far more than personal paycheck. I guess those years of watching and reading A Christmas Carol, my favorite book/tv special at Christmas time by the way, has taken its effects on this conservative accountant. I do care about the people I work with and I ask why should I not care about them? Is it so hard to honestly worry about someone's financial state if you're not a Democrat (I am actually a registered Independent ironically after 2010 and still can vote in the Republican Primary). It might not look like I have a bleeding heart to some conservatives, but my heart does pump out blood like any human being and it is no different than a liberal's or conservative's heart. I dare say that of all the liberals and conservatives that I know, I can't count how many can honestly say that they have made the same sacrifices that I have and can make the same decisions I had to? A lot of people like to second guess, so do I. Conservative friends told me I should have left this place years ago. Liberal friends chide me for firing people in a bad employment environment. Before you jump to conclusions, there is a reality that I have to live with and both sides have to live with. Nothing is perfectly black and white, neither the free markets nor a socialistic one can make life better without people like me playing our parts and doing our best to make irrational human judgment into coherent business As long as mankind hold irrational behavior, I can only do my best to stabilize deteriorating circumstances. ________________________________ On my life: I am taking my first steps to leave my current job after being told that we need to fire people, who basically did nothing wrong except have management without discipline or control over themselves. At least, I gave them three more years of income. When I first started this job as just merely a Senior Accountant, the books were a mess. We have account receivables of over $520K, Account payable at around $370K, and operating cash at $20K. Cash reserves had been drained down to almost nothing. Basically, no one had billed anything out for our services, our vendors were screaming for money, and the payroll was barely being covered by the small flow of checks coming in every month. I turned that around, ended operational delay in billing cycles, set payable accounts with vendors after payment to net 30 days after their date, and changed the way we managed cash. I did some good things, but they were not enough. I can't change who runs a business, I can't change decision people make, and I can't change inevitable outcomes. All I can say now looking back, I have done my best, no more and no less. I hope in this bad economy, I can find a place that is better and in need of my particular skills. -
Hmm...i thought there was a straight section too, must be part of asstr stories then, but i could have sworn nifty had a straight section at one point; though i don't go there (Which partially would explain its disappearance ) try Asstr.org if you want a story like 50 shades.

Dude, it's your junk! Pot linked to testicular cancer
W_L replied to Daddydavek's topic in The Lounge
you remembered the "bouncing balls too" -
You all do know this story was began as a slash fan fiction right We don't rip on each other that badly, when harry potter is on a leash held by draco or if the winchester boys (love Sam and dean by the way) are held in a magic spell and made to do such horrible things to each other. Sure i dislike 50 shades, but if people like that it's fine with me. It is not for me, but others can say the same for gay fan fics too.
