I'm a super hoe, making mountains out of molehills...

I read this quote today:

My opponents realize they don't have the better argument so what they're now saying is 'Well, I don't know about Obama. You know, we, we gotta, we gotta know more about him and you know, he doesn't wear a flag pin. His former pastor said something and he's, he's got uh, we don't know what his values are. We don't know if he's patriotic. He's got a funny name, you know, it sounds, sounds Muslim.’ That, that's what's dominated. That is what has dominated political coverage over the last several weeks.

It's from Senator Obama. I think it accurately sums up what's been going on the campaign lately. It's right on target. And it's a shame that it's so.

Hard candy so sweet, and i could never get enough...

Today after work, I went and bought Madonna's new Cd Hard Candy.



Don't judge me. Like I'm the ONLY gay guy, of a certain age, in the USA to buy it the first day it's out. Please.

I was gonna just download it from iTunes, when I saw Best Buy had it on sale for $9.99, which is was entire albums on iTunes sell for. And this way, I'd have a 'hard copy' if my computer went ka-blooie and I didn't have my iTunes saved. And besides, when was the last time I got to pay $9.99 for a CD? Most of them are like 13.99 to 18.99 or so.

And that, my friends, is why the music industry is imploding. Charging those prices for something that CAN be priced at 9.99 and still make a profit. So, instead of paying those outrageous overpiced prices, we get the songs off the Internet at a much more reasonable price.

Now, if someone would just figure out a way to get gasoline off the Internet...

TMI Tuesdays

These come from http://tmituesday.blogspot.com/

1. Early bird or night owl? Definitely night owl. I am of the firm belief that mornings should not even begin until about 1:00 in the afternoon.
2. Where was the first place you ever had sex? I don't even remember. With a girl, it was with a girl I worked with, and it was on her waterbed, I think. Got a bit seasick. With a guy, it was with a big, muscular black guy in an adult bookstore. He was playing the video game back in the booth area, and I came up behind him. I fucked him right there, there was no one else back in the booth area at that time.
3. On a scale of 1-10, how happy are you? (1 is lowest, 10 is highest) Somewhere in the 7-9 range, depending on the particular day.
4. Are you more submissive or dominant? I think I'm usually dominant in most things. There are time, though, not often, but times, when I really want and get into being bossed around sexually.
5. Do you believe in love at first sight? Nope. I barely believe in love at all. But I know ALL about lust at first sight! I experience that several times a day, usually.
Bonus (as in optional): Describe your bed time habits. What side do you sleep on? What do you usual wear? Any night time rituals? Sleep on the right side of the bed, as you lay on it. Wear nothing, haven't since I was in high school. Must read before I got to bed, even if it's only for a few minutes.

Freaks, demanding refunds for the things they've seen...

I must have done the math correctly on my Federal taxes, cause today, three weeks after I sent the return in, I got a check for eleven hundred and some odd dollars. Crazy. I thought for sure I had done something wrong, as I can't believe I'm getting that much back. But I guess it was right. And I already deposited it in my account. Sure is nice to have some money stocked away. Just a few years ago, I was doing the paycheck to paycheck thing, paying bill on Tuesday, ending up negative in my checking with like $75 in my savings, and heaving a sigh of relief, cause I knew I was getting paid on Thursday and none of the checks I just wrote would clear before then, so i was safe for another week.

Plenty of money in my checking account, double that in my savings account, zero balance on my credits cards (all three of them), and I'll have my car paid off this December, maybe before with all this extra money I've now got.

What WILL I do being so flush? This is quite unusual for me, first time in my 40 years I've been this well off.

Set of figurines, she'd often let me play with them...

So, as I mentioned before, I regularly get comic books from Atomic Comics, a store in the town in work in. This past weekend, he was having another sale. This was the third one in like six months, so I asked Luke, the owner, if he was planning on closing or anything. He said that he has so much old stuff there, that's not moving, and so much new stuff in the back he wants to get out, he's having these sales to clear out the stuff that's not moving.

This sale, some thing's were discounted up to 90% off. Naturally, all that I wanted was nowhere near that much off. however, I did get a bunch of stuff cheap. I got this box of 7 figurines:


They're enemies of the early Justice League: Despero, Amazo, Kajar Ro, Queen Bee, Dr. Light, the Key, and Felix Faust. It was originally priced at 39.99, he had it marked down to 27.99, but with the sale, I got it for $9.08! What a bargain! I also got the following figures for real cheap:


One the left is a Joker figurine from the Batman: The Dark Knight series. I love all things Joker, and have collected most of his figurines. In the middle is the Batwoman figurine. I'm not a big fan of Batwoman, but she's a lesbian, and I DO want to support my gay brothers and sisters in the comics, so I got it. And lastly, on the right, is a figurine of Tony Romo, Dallas Cowboys quarterback. The sports figures were 60% off, that one was a real nice bargain too.

I also picked up a bunch of graphic novels for a steal. I love sales at Atomic Comics!

My buddy, Craiggers, runs a pretty hilarious blog over at http://www.puntabulous.com/. I'm not even sure how I discovered his blog, but as soon as I did, I was hooked. And now I visit it every day.

He's got a few re-occuring themes, like Natalie Portman, His Wife (which, by the by, Craiggers, we haven't seen in a while. She IS okay, isn't she?), his adventures getting to and from work in NYC, Teach Me Something Tuesdays, Guest Debates, the trials and tribulations of having a greasy nose and shoulder hair, the exploits of his self-created superheroes Super Viagra and Vagina Girl, and the mean, nasty deeds of Evil Bunny!

A lil bit ago, he noted that you could now get Puntabulous items and apparel from Cafepress.com (see this post ). Well, considering that I've been reading him for quite some time, I was one of his first Guest Debaters, I read him every day, and that if I lived closer to him, I'd totally stalk him, I HAD to purchase some!

This is the three magnets I got: The Evil Bunny; The Super Viagra&Vagina Girl; the Puntabulous.


This is the Puntabulous t-shirt!


This is the Evil Bunny undies!


And the stud muffin Craiggers, Puntabulous mouse pad.


The shirt is a smidge small, but it will fit perfectly once I lose those naggin 50 pounds...that I've been trying to lose for the last decade.....

The boxers were a smidge small too, for the same reason, that's why I've got my hand covering up the Polt-naughty bits. My junk kept popping out the fly, and really, no one wants to see that, so I just covered everything up. I knew both the shirt and undies would be a bit small, as Cafepress apparently doesn't sell fat-man sizes, but I got them nonetheless. Potential future stalkers do that sorta thing, dontcha know?

And as for the mousepad, well, I use an optical mouse, so I don't even NEED a mousepad. but with Craiggers, shirtless, drinking a beer and a neon green inflatable thingee that looks somewhat like a tutu around his waist, well HOW could I NOT get it?

Never did i find a nest for my soul...

Around Easter, mom hung an "Easter wreath" on the front door. It was a wreath with all kinda of spring flowers on it. Two after Easter, mom noticed a bird had made a nest in the wreath, and was now living there. Luckily, we don't use the front door, we use the back door at the side of the house. But every time someone walks by the front porch to get to the back door, the bird flies out and waits on some wires nearby until it's safe to returns.

Not too long after discovering the nest, we discovered that there were 5 eggs inside it. We both thought this funny, that mom's Easter wreath was now going to be ahome for 5 little birdlings.

Today, when i was over there, I saw the bird fly away. I have been meaning to get a photo of it to post about here. When I went to do so, i noticed there were some chicks in the nest! There were three of them, and two as yet unhatched eggs. I took a photo the best I could, but becuase of the flash and the angle I had to get, it didn't come out too well.



Maybe you can see the remaining eggs and the three chicks? Maybe you can't...I should try to get a better shot.

I know this goes on all the time, but this it really the first time I've ever gotten to SEE it happen, monitor the progress. I suppose very soon we'll hear a bunch of squeeks from the chicks. It all just makes me smile. The smiple things, the things you take for granted, are sometimes, when you stop taking them for granted and actually take time to watch them, well, they seem pretty miraculous.

Their selling point, the focus for their new campaign...

As regular readers know, I've not had too many good things to say about John McCain. But in this post, at least, that will change.

I'm not sure if you've heard about this or not, but Republicans in North Carolina had made a TV ad resorting to tried and true Republican tactics: trying to say Obama's not a good candidate or a good American using clips of the Rev. Wright.

John McCain, or someone in his campaign, sent a letter to the state party and asked them not to run the ad. I didn't get the actual reasons listed in the request, but perhaps John McCain wants to have an election based on issues and ideas and not propoganda and made-up side tangents that don't mean a damn thing. Perhaps, he was wants to have an elections that deals with the difference in the candidates positions and not in distractions.

I don't know why he wrote it, but it demonstrates quite clearly why I always said he was the least objectionable of the Republican candidates. Course, when you're running against Rudy "911911911911911" Guiliani, Mitt "The Iraq War is so important, I'm keeping my sons here at home to run my presidential campaign instead of sending them in to fight it" Romeny and Mike "Just slightly to the right of Jerry Falwell" Huckabee, it's not difficult to be the least objectionable of that bunch. And it shows why, had he gotten the nomination against Gore in 2000, I would have voted for McCain.

We'll have to see if he and his campaign maintain this kind of issues-oriented election going, or if they resort to the typical Rovian, Republican tactics once the generel election starts. I sincerely hope it's the former.

Then read it in the headlines, watch it on TV....

I do have to laugh at the media covering the election.

"Hillary closes the gap" - she netted three more delegates than Obama, with three total left to find out who get them. Even if it all goes her way, a 6 delegate increase, out of 158 eligible and with him having a lead of roughly 130 or so delegeates now, is not really something to be crowing about.

"Hillary wins BIG!" - With a 55-45 percent win, a 10 point sounds big...until you recall that 6 weeks ago, her lead was by 26 points. THAT would have been a BIG win. A ten point margin, well, how many of those has Obama had?

"Hillary gets avalanche of money with PA win" - The figure I saw tonight was that in the two days since her win, she has gotten 1 million dollars. Okay, sounds good. On that pace, she'll make 15 million in a month, which sounds good too...until you realize in March Obama raised 40 million. In March, Hillary herself raised about 21 million. In addition, looking at the finances right now, Obama's campaign has 42million on hand. Hillary's campaign has 9 million on hand, and is 10 million in debt. So this 1 million over the last two days will get her breaking even, which is decidedly good. But remember, Obama's STILL got that 42 million on hand. Were these recent contributions really an 'avalanche'?

I do have to laugh. I don't know if it's because the media prefers Hillary to Obama, or just wants to make a bigger story than there really is. I believe it's the latter.

But with just a handful of primaries left (NC, IND, KEN, WV, OR, MON, SD, PR), and some of these states Obama is way ahead in, is there any way she can realistically win? How can she get her delegates, popular votes, or number of states won to even equal Obama's, much less surpass him?

Yes, mathematically, she still has a chance. But the real question is, realistically, how much of a chance does she have?

This past Tuesday was the primary election in Pennsylvania. Uncle Polt ALWAYS votes. I've been eligible to vote since the spring of 1986, and I've only ever missed one, an off year primary election. And this was the first PA primary in my memory that actually meant something, that the nominee wasn't already decided before we voted.

At any rate, when I voted, I snuck my camera in with me for this week's HNT:


Yep, that's Uncle Polt casting his vote for Barack Obama. Not sure if the camera in the voting booth is entirely legal, but eh, whatever. I'm a rebel like that. That's how I roll.

Think of you again, someone was wearing your cologne...

On one of my first trips to Toronto, I met an adorable 19 year old named Baker (or at least that's what he TOLD me his name was). He was half Hispanic, half Italian. Small, tight twinkie boy body, with dyed blonde hair cut short on the sides, but long on the top, so it could hand down, or be pulled back into a ponytail (I saw it both ways). He had a chipped front tooth that he got a few years back by falling off a skateboard. He was going to university for communications. He wore a pair of small round glasses, not because he needed them, but because he thought they made him look smarter. He was making an attempt at a goatee, but he was naturally non-hairy, so it wasn't a very good attempt, but endearing nonetheless. He was bi-sexual, had had boyfriends in the past, currently had a girlfriend who was bisexual too. They both fooled around with members of their own sex occasionally.

I spoke to him on two consecutive days, making out with him both times, but never getting to go any further. He was wearing the same cologne both times. When asked he said he was wearing "Le Male, by Jean-Paul Gautier". The next day, I went to the Eaton Centre and bought myself a bottle. I have since gone through two more bottles and am nearly through the fourth one.


And strangely, when I wear it, I don't feel like either Baker or the guy in the ad. And I fail to attract guys like Baker or the guy in the ad. Must not work as well on me as it did on Baker.

I'll always feel like a winner it's true...

Hillary won the PA primary. Just what I expected, although the only question I had was by how much would she win, and I've not yet read anything about that.


I noticed how several talking heads were saying that only McCain is the winner because of all the damage the Democrats are doing to each other. Bearing in mind that the Republicans really had nothing to come out and vote for, and the Democrats had everything to come out and vote for, I found it interesting that the totals were approximately 2.25 million votes cast for Democrats and less than 800,000 votes cast for Republicans. Over 1.4 million more votes cast for a Democrat than for a Republican does not bode well for McCain in the fall.

Only saw my mother's hand, the things i've earned...

I was just going through all my photos in my computer here, and I discovered these. Most are from last year, October and November I think. I meant to post about them then, but, well....I lost the photos in all the porn I have here. (oh don't judge...like YOU never look at porn online)

Anyway, here they are now, half a year later.

One day in October, before dad died, mom and I went to a local apple orchard to pick out some apples. She wanted to make some pies, or some such junk, I don't know. All I remember is she got two bushels of one kind and one bushel of another kind. Come to think of it, that's quite a few apple pies there, so it was probably just a supply for the winter. At any rate, the orchard had them set out in these big huge crates. Mom went picking through them looking for ones she wanted. Some of the crates were kinda empty, and she had to like hang herself over the side to reach them. i thought for sure she'd fall in, but she didn't. These are those crates.



And these are some of the apples we took home.



After dad died, mom got rid of the TV he had wanted a large screen monstrosity. She wanted "one of those new flat screen or plasma screen or whatever they're called". So she saw Wal-Mart had one on sale, and one Sunday, we went there and she bought one. This is her new falt screen tv.



And one day, right before Thanksgiving, mom was baking (like she does ALL the time), she made this huge sugar cookie. I think it was for some Church function or the other. but it was HUGE!


And I didn't even get to taste any of it.
