The Crash
It was 37 degrees outside, I was bundled up riding my bike home from school. Tucked under my red hat, my ear buds send the sounds of the Dixie Chicks to my ears. I am about a mile from school, crossing a busy intersection when…. the left pedal snaps off… my foot slams into the pavement and my body twists sending waves of pain over all of it. “Damn, what the hell happened?” I say…

Old, Gray, and Gay.
I’m 35 today. Old, gray, and gay. I’m a far cry from what I had expected to be at 15, 20 or 25… I’m alive. I keep thinking back to when I was a teen; the music, the trouble the lies. Looking back at all I have seen, all I have done that have changed my very life. Now it is not a destination, but a journey of a spiritual life. A journey of prayer,…

RENT
Saw the movie RENT on Friday night, truly a masterpiece… Lots of fun, had me wanting to sing along by the end of the show. Taye Diggs… ooooo la, la… I’d see it again just to stare at him throughout the entire movie… drool. A love story, a musical, a testament to living with AIDS….. spectacular. (nope, had never seen the play) Did I mention Taye Diggs? Damn that boy is hot!!!! Evil, but hot!!!

World AIDS Day – December 1, 2005
Today is the day when the world stops to recognize HIV and AIDS. World leaders will make promises, organizations will post truths (HRC, Avert, UNAIDS) and millions will wear red ribbons. The last three years on December 1, I stood most of the day at work and handed out ribbons to everyone who passed by, making sure they knew the significance and getting them literature too if they needed it. Today, I’ll wear my ribbon…

Crime and Punishment
A terrible crime has been committed, a stab into the heart of true art, a destruction of true taste. “E” Entertainment has reunited Paris and Nicole (the two with absolutely no talent-of course I never saw the porn video) for another season of The Simple Life (See Post Article). Another season of two ditzy girls making fun of the average American family, this is worth spending time on? Another season of “Daisy Dukes” and other…

Interruption
My neighbors alarm clock has been going off since Wednesday. At first it’s funny-he forgot to turn off his alarm, the moron. Then you realize that noise will be going off for the entire holiday weekend. You’re lying in bed at 6:00 a.m. on Friday morning when =buzz= you hear his =buzz= alarm =buzz= kick =buzz= in =buzz= again. The nap you wanted to take on Saturday =buzz= is =buzz= not to =buzz= happen =buzz=…

Priest Policy
The Vatican is so wonderful and forward thinking, banning candidates from the priesthood who “practice homosexuality” [see link Post article here]. I could still be a priest then, cause I don’t practice anymore… don’t have to I’m really good at it!!! But, imagine if you will the Human Resources department of the Vatican at the hiring stage for a priest. HR Director: “Are you gay or do you practice homosexual acts?”Potential Priest: “No, I am…

Turkey Eve
Happy festivities to all of you, hope you all eat entirely too much and have a wonderful time with your family. Try to remember my philosophy: “It’s not a real holiday unless someone cries”.
