After much research, debate and worry … I have finally settled on what to purchase as far as a widescreen television is concerned. It will be the Sharp Aquos 42″ LCD HDTV.

Weekend Plans
Well … I did have some, but they got kinked. So, now I guess you could say that I am “footloose and fancy free.”
Some things that I am gonna do:
1. See “Zodiac.”
2. Eat Pizza.
3. Drink a Beer.
4. Work on some freelance stuff.
5. Read the script to that musical I might be directing in 2008.
6. Watch some porn and jerk off.
Play safe, people!
Switching Gears
Jake is still my main man at the moment … but we’re gonna jump back and take a look at some additional pictures of Jamie Bamber and that towel. Something tells me this man needs a serious tongue bath after he’s had his shower. Mmmmm, mmmm!
Gone Retro
I’ve jumped into the WABAC Machine here and changed back to the very last “look” I had when I was still using Blogger (just before the halcyon days of WordPress). Yeah.
Let’s rock it back to early 2005 …
A Wee Obsessed
David & Jake
Since I don’t have anything important to say right now (do I ever?) … I would like to use this opportunity to remind you that the new David Fincher movie “Zodiac” opens at a theater near you this Friday. It features Jake, my main squeeze!
Two Hikes
Friday afternoon, W. and I traveled down to the NC/TN state line and spent the afternoon at Max Patch. After hiking part of the Appalachian Trail through the woods up to the summit, we laid in the grass staring up at the deep blue sky … feeling the sun on our faces. It was a great afternoon getaway.
On Saturday, Preston, Tom and I strapped on out packs and headed up the Sam Branch Cascade. The intention was to make it to the top of that huge rocky outcropping that the trail goes by. After much huffy and puffing (and some serious climbing and scrambling) we made it to the top. There’s a fantastic view from up there. When you look down off the rock and follow Sam Branch up the mountain, you can see that there is a huge waterfall at the very top of the mountain. There’s now talk of going back soon and following the branch up the mountain so that we can see that waterfall up close.
Preston on top of the rock.
Here’s a cautious view of the drop off. You can see Sam Branch way down there.
The hearty adventurers (Preston, Chas., Tom) pose for posterity.
There was a lot of butt sliding on the way back down. Yes … the trail is really that steep.
Tom takes a rest break by the icy waters of Sam Branch.
Longest Night of the Year
Oh my dear sweet Jebus … could that Oscar ceremony have been any longer and boring than it was? It really don’t think so. Surely there is someone in Hollywood who could come up with a fast paced and exciting awards ceremony. I wonder who gets put in charge of producing the kind of crap that was on last night. All the endless (and totally pointless) movie montages. All those dumb dance bits that celebrated such great movies as “Snakes on a Plane.” All the tired and played out acceptance speeches thanking every single person under the sun. The exception to this was Forest Whitaker. Another exception was Ellen Degeneres who did an excellent job hosting. I think I might just have to skip watching the Oscars next year.
Happy Thursday!
Hi. Are you having as good a Thursday as I am? I hope so ’cause I am super duper happy right now. In just a few hours W. will be cruising into town for a visit. How awesome is that? Yeah, it is pretty damn awesome. It’s been about one month since we have seen each other what with work/life schedules and all. That does suck but I am sure that we will have fun making up for any lost time (if’n you know what I mean). He suggested that we go on a hike tomorrow afternoon … and, man … that winds my crank. Looks like the weather is gonna be very Spring-like too. Yippie! Woods, sun, trail, cute fella … what more can you ask for?
Mr. Towel!
In answer to Lee’s question … yes, I have seen the “Final Cut” episode of “Battlestar Galactica” and I think my heart stopped for a few seconds during its opening moments.
Tuesday, Tuesday
Been kinda a blah day … the forecast is for rain and I wish that it would cloud over and get started. I am in the mood for some dreary weather. I know that sounds kinda strange, but I like dreary weather.
In other news:
I will have a cute, fuzzy house guest from High Point later this week. Yea!
Mr. Bamber
Thanks to the magic of DVD I am finally getting to watch the new “Battlestar Galactica.” I have been enjoying it so far. But I must confess that any time Jamie Bamber comes on the screen (with those perfect arms of his) I get so damn distracted that I miss what’s going on in the story. What I want to know is how many hours a day he has to spend at the gym to get them looking so good … and tasty.
