In Anticipation of a Punitive Attack

The Americans and the French have said that they are planning an attack to punish Syria for using chemical weapons in a "crime against conscience" that killed 1,429 people on August 21, 2013. This action is expected to take place during the weekend.

In response to this Vladimir "Little Father" Putin, President of Russia, has urged the Americans and the French to rethink their plans and consider the future victims that may follow on such a military action.

This is totally absurd and hypocritical coming from a bigoted bastard who has supported the murderous Bashar al-Assad, President of Syria, and his clansmen during the last two years while they have been slaughtering close to 150,000 of their own countrymen.

Putin and Russia have throughout the two years of bloodshed successfully blocked any action being launched by the United Nations against the atrocities and thus made the world stand helplessly by and witness the continued murdering and butchering going on, day after day, week after week, month after month for two whole years. 

Calas Galadhon Park Sims Reopen Today

The wonderful Calas Galadhon Park Sims are opening for visitors three days earlier than the owners, gardeners, caretakers and gamekeepers, my dear fiends, Tymus Tenk and Truck Meredith had originally anticipated. This jubilant declaration was made on the Calas Galadhon Park blog today.

"With all but about 30 percent of “Autumn Color” in on Misty Mountains, we can announce that the work and changes planned for ‘CALAS’ are complete and ready for the gates to be open on Saturday morning SLT, August 31. We didn't think you'd mind a few ‘men at work’ signs if we opened up early."

Please visit the Calas Galadhon blog (url) for more on this exciting news!

And on a more personal note here is a private message from me to Ty and Truck.
"Guys, I will not mind at all seeing a few ‘men at work’ signs, if you promise me 
1) that the men at work are the two of you and 
2) that you will both be working shirtless and in the skimpiest shorts that can be found in all of SecondLife." 

Lights, Music & Dance!

Big Momma's Ballroom had its season opening yesterday. The beautiful place is owned and operated by my friends BM Oh and Kahvy Sands.

The venue was filled with dance enthusiasts who had sorely missed this entertainment since the venue closed at the beginning of summer. As an added treat we had live entertainment provided by the awesome singer Chi (Inchino Melson). 

A picture says more than a thousand words, so let me tell you about the rest of the wonderful evening in pictures!

As I said yesterday, I absolutely hate my ankles in SecondLife, which is the reason I always wear socktops to cover them whenever I am wearing short trousers.

People asked me to show pictures of my fat and weird ankles in the same pose for comparative reasons, so here it is. Please note, that my private parts are covered by a grey sock so don't report this as porn.

P.S. Today (Saturday August 31, 2013) I received a message from Facebook that my photo had been reported for "nudity" or "pornography". I did not need the hassle so I deleted the picture from Facebook. Someone must really get off on socks!

Men Only vs. Women Only

At the moment I am thinking of something there has been some brouhaha around on the SecondLife pages on Facebook, the fact that certain clubs only allow gay men. To me this issue is really not important one way or the other, but I know it is to some of my gay friends. 

The discussion made me think about the many times in first life, and in SecondLife too, where I have been told that this or that place is not open to men this evening - or ever - because there is a lesbian thing going on or it is a lesbian place and no men are ever allowed. 

I have always accepted that and never made a fuss about it or felt denigrated or shunned. 

Why is it that places, clubs, sims, whatever that only allow gay men are seen as doing something terribly wrong, while places, clubs, sims, whatever that only allow lesbians are seen as something completely natural, tolerated and highly acceptable? Sort of, "We must understand that the girls wish to be alone sometimes, otherwise they feel overpowered by all the gay loudmouths!"

I believe we should accept and respect that a specific group, in this case gay men, sometimes wish to be among their own, with no other gender or straight people (allies or not) present. Sometimes most of us don't want to mix, it's that simple.

On other occasions - and that is most of them - we as gay men love to mix with anyone who respects us, lesbians and straight allies (women and men), hell anyone who is not overtly anti-gay .

Cute & Cuddly Cats

Yesterday my friend Jasmine Cazalet cried her desperate need for a hug in IM to me. As there - to my complete amazement - were no straight men lined up outside her door to cater to her needs, I offered to come and give her one myself.

Jasmine sent me a teleport to her home and as soon as I arrived we had a good, long and cosy hug!

As most Swedes, both of us love to hug a lot and know that a good and strong embrace is sometimes a good cure for many problems and even if it doesn't cure you feel better after one anyway. This exotic habit of the Swedes always seems to surprise many foreigners, who are more reserved with these overt signs of affection.

After the hug, Jasmine showed me round her home and introduced me to her young cat Whiskers. The fat little bugger was sleeping contentedly on her bed and he didn't even notice my presence.

When I left Jasmine she seemed a bit happier and was doing handstands on her bed. Even this did not disturb Whiskers in the least, he just kept sleeping on.

On the Terrace (Revisited)

Just me.

P.S. Yesterday, i.e. the same day I posted this picture, I learned that Guyke and Butch absolutely detest the socktops I always wear to cover up my ugly SecondLife ankles.

I am not sure I will stop wearing the socktops, but I am trying right now to see if I can get used to the ankles. It may however ultimately come down to either not wearing short pants or not wearing socktops, in which case I will definitely continue with the socktops. Just saying...
