movie day.

I spent much of yesterday lounging around and doing very little of anything that could be considered productive.  It had snowed about a foot the day before and, since I'm off work between Christmas and New Year's, the idea of lazily staying indoors seemed like the perfect thing to do.  As things turned out, I ended up watching an interesting mixture of movies.

First up was Animal House -- a movie I hadn't seen in years  A friend from a non-English speaking country came over and, since he hadn't seen Animal House as a teenager like most Americans of my generation, we popped it in.  Despite a few questionable gay and racial items that are probably more indicative of the time in which the film was made than of any particular mindset or biases of the producers, it was just as hilarious and diverting as I remembered.

It was interesting to revisit the younger faces of so many well-known actors who I'm more familiar with as they look today: Tom Hulce, Stephen Furst, Kevin Bacon, Tim Matheson, Karen Allen and a perfectly deadpan Donald Sutherland.  I'm also reminded of what a loss John Belushi's death was to the entertainment world. His larger-than-life screen presence (no pun intended) cannot be denied.

Next up was Paris, Je T'Aime.  As you'd expect with any anthology film made by almost 20 different directors, the various entries are ultimately a mixed bag that don't quite gel together.  But as a meditation on love and on the City of Love, it was an enjoyable way to spend a couple of hours.

I especially liked the final segment, "14e Arrondissement," starring Margo Martindale as a lonely, middle-aged mail carrier from the Midwest on a solo, once-in-a-lifetime trip to Paris.  Martindale narrates the short in fluent French but with an intentionally, hilariously flat American accent.  This particular segment, directed and co-written by Alexander Payne (Sideways, Election, About Schmidt), was both disarming and surprisingly moving.  It reminded me of similar feelings I had when on my own perhaps-once-in-a-lifetime trip to the City of Lights.

As it turns out, I saved the best for last.  After my friend left, I pulled out one of the first Blu-ray discs I'd ever purchased but had never gotten around to watching: Blade Runner, by the great Ridley Scott (Alien, Thelma & Louise, Gladiator, Black Hawk Down, Kingdom of Heaven -- seriously, where is this man's Academy Award??).

I could say a million things about this highly influential, stylistic masterpiece.  Blade Runner is, arguably, the second best science fiction movie ever made, topped only for sure by Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey.  However, I'll just say this...  Haven't seen it in a long time?  Think you've partaken of everything there is to experience in it?  Watch it again.

shower.

Well, the first half of my holiday break is over.  Time to get cleaned up and think about dealing with my by now unruly beard.  I'll let this picture of a luvly hirsute gent serve as today's inspiration to hop in the shower and consider perhaps mowing my face down to size.  Funny thing is, this looks just like my shower -- sans the guy, alas.

mustache love.

I ran across this pic on MALE ASS BANQUET, a good blog definitely worth checking out. The hairy ass is, of course, a beauty to behold -- but I'm finding that I'm attracted the little glimpse of a mustache on his upper lip just as much.

happy boxing day.

Boxing Day, for those of you who are unfamiliar with it, is a holiday that usually falls on the day after Christmas.  Outside of the U.S., it's observed by much of the English-speaking world.  I like it just because it's something that we sorta, kinda, but not really celebrate here in the States.  Due to its proximity to Christmas, Americans almost always have this day off from life (unless we work retail) but it's not an official, or even unofficially acknowledged, holiday.

Wikipedia has some interesting theories on how Boxing Day came into existence in Europe but offers no clear answers.  One thing's for sure, it probably has absolutely nothing to with pugilism.  Just the same, I thought I'd post a couple of hot boxer pics.  The elf hat on the second pic is from a fun, silly iPhone app I downloaded...figured I'd go with the holiday spirit.  The first pic, however, is just too damned tasty to do any kind of unnecessary monkeying with.

Enjoy!

tron-derwear.

Ah, the cool, blue glow of a computer monitor.  The lighting in this picture of a guy with an impressive package reminded me of the gorgeous, eye-popping blue-whites of the modern TRON sequel, TRON: Legacy.  It seemed the perfect opportunity to play around in Photoshop and a get nice, close-up look at that sizable basket.  (For comparison, the original, non-TRON version is at the bottom.)

smokin'.

Another older pic.  Hairy legs, hairy chest, lean bod, nice dick, pretty balls, the slightest glimpse of a hairy ass, sexy expression.  There's not a thing about this picture that I don't like.  :-)

hair.

Another goody from the old files.  Love those hairy legs and that hairy ass.

all i want for christmas is...

The Big Penis Book!

I love that this book exists! I ran across it at random on Amazon not too long ago, promptly saved the cover image to my iPhone, and have waited patiently for the expense of the holidays (and a tropical vacation planned for this February) to come and go so that I may beautify my already-overstocked bookshelves with its gloriousness.

Also, check out the funny video advertising the book's release featuring its editor, Dian Hanson.

a churl after my own heart.

Here's another oldie but goodie from the defunct hard drive.

hard drive woes (and delights).

For several years now, I've had a couple of defunct desktop computers collecting dust in a closet. For whatever reason, I've never been able to make up my mind whether it would be best to try to repair them or simply try to retrieve old files of interest for the hard drives. Today, in a horned-up frenzy to save from oblivion some ancient videos of a buddy having his way with my rump, I finally reached the decision to purchase a device called a "hard drive enclosure." This nifty piece of hardware will, in essence, create a new external hard drive from an old internal one.

I'm still digging through gigabytes of old data but so far have been unable to find my cherished homemade, post-condom smut. I have, however, run across a gazillion files of other men participating in similar activities. Figured I'd share some here.

I particularly like this picture. It combines two of my favorite things: hairy legs and bareback sex. Enjoy!

Definitely a must-see for any Star Trek, steampunk or photo-manipulation nerds out there.

mike davis: movie star crush.

Okay, so maybe Mike Davis was just a porn movie star (and “star” might even be stretching it a bit) but I had as much of a crush on him as I ever did on, say, Gary Cooper or Matt Damon.  I first ran across pictures of him in the late 80’s (probably in one of those great, old pre-Internet Bijou Video catalogs) and was completely turned by his hairy chest, nice cock, and rugged-married-guy-next-door good looks.  As a young man in my 20’s, he was exactly what I hoped my future husband would look like.


A contemporary, frequent costar, and personal friend of porn legend Al Parker, Davis was known primarily as a model and actor for Colt Studios.  Most of his films are of the older, silent “loop” variety but, with even these obvious limitations, his woofy manliness cannot be denied.  Alas, Davis (whose real name was Winn Strickland) died in 1986 from complications due to AIDS.

I’m still looking for that Davis look-alike husband, by the way, so if you run across anyone…  ;-)

an introduction.

"‘Welcome to my house! Enter freely. Go safely, and leave something of the happiness you bring!’"

       — Bram Stoker, Dracula

Welcome to my house.

I’ve spent the morning trying to make this blog look like something I’d like to read: creating potential backgrounds, tweaking colors and fonts within Blogger’s design mechanism, etc.  After making some pretty cool backgrounds and trying them out, I discovered that, unless I wanted to tweak the code itself (which I didn’t), I couldn’t quite get the look I was going for.  Ultimately, I resorted to using one of the existing templates with a few minor tweaks (including a sexy banner!) — one that I’m sure every third person on Blogger is using.  Ah well.

When considering doing a new blog, some decisions had to be made regarding what kind of stuff I’d want to cover.  I’ve done a few blogs in the past: professional blogs, personal/geeky blogs, politically-oriented blogs, naughty picture blogs and anonymous sex blogs.  Some showed my face/name and some didn’t.  I opted this time around to combine all of the above (and whatever else strikes my fancy) but without face and name.

Who am I?  A 40-something year old guy who currently lives in Philadelphia, PA.  I’m tall, gay, have a love of many things nerdy/geeky, smart, got some body hair, sometimes have a beard and I’m HIV+. 

And while I don’t have it as much as I used to, I love sex.  Sweet vanilla sex and crazed monkey sex.  I’m sure I’ll be covering various sexual misadventures from time to time.

The difficulty with doing a blog is getting people to find it, to find it interesting, and to read it with any regularity.  I’ve lost interest in writing blogs in the past when the traffic just wasn’t there.  But I’m approaching this one with fewer expectations.  Read it.  Don’t read it.  It’s all good.  I’m doing this one for me. 

And I'm doing it to post naughty pictures.  ;-)

more smut.

Found a couple of other B&W pictures I thought I'd share.  These pictures have always turned me on.  I'm assuming these are the same two guys, despite the fact that the backgrounds are different.

I like everything about the brunette.  He's very much my type (or one of my types, anyway) and I love that he's engaging in some mutual buttplay, which just happens to be one of my favorite things!

good old-fashioned smut.

Hello everyone.  Just getting started here so please ignore the tumbleweeds rolling across your screen.

Looking at the empty blog made me realize that this blog was a blog that only Blogger could love.  So I figured I should post something that I'd be interested in looking at until I figured out how I wanted to start things in a more official sense.

Mmm...naked man with big dick about to fuck another naked man.  Hard to go wrong with that.  Enjoy!
