The film awards season has kicked off and the National Board of Review has come up with a list of top-10 films that defies logic. While I can quibble with the inclusion of 500 Days of Summer or Up or,... [...]
Dan and I spent our latest vacation in Oahu with a couple friends from New York. Maybe it was like a movie that gets over-hyped, but neither of us was too impressed with our week there. We stayed at Hotel... [...]
Every year I get tons of requests for info on the gay Toys For Tots party in New York. This year's party will be at Chelsea Piers on Sunday, Dec. 6, 5pm-9pm. It's annually the best party in Manhattan. You... [...]
Not surprising to me, it comes from an 86-year-old World War II vet in Maine. Every voter in Maine should see this. Please give to equality in Maine! Just 11 days left until the election. And your donation can help!! [...]
If you're in Los Angeles and looking for a dentist, do I have the man for you! Dr. Dan Pinar is really warm and friendly and his office prides itself on being low-pressure! He won't try to sell you several... [...]
Don't count me among those who think the ruckus reception that many lawmakers have gotten at their "healthcare town meetings" is fake or orchestrated. There is a lot of anger out there directed at the Federal government and the ballooning...' [...]
Attorney David Boies penned a fantastic piece in today's Wall Street Journal outlining why he and Ted Olson are taking the gay-marriage fight to the Supreme Court. It's one of the most compelling, well-written pieces on the subject I've seen...' [...]
This past Monday, Barack Obama held a reception at the White House for "leaders" in the gay community. In actuality, it was a cocktail party he had with a couple hundred devoted gay followers to make it look like he... [...]
I have long been critical of gay "leaders" for cozying up to the Democrats at the expense of furthering gay rights. We've seen it over and over, as HRC and others are willing to sit on the sidelines and wait...' [...]
I come from two families of fishermen on Cape Cod. My father's family were strictly of the rod-and-reel type: Stand on the shore and cast into the water, catching the occasional striped bass or bluefish or small-mouth bass or trout.... [...]
I'm kind of surprised by how many people are talking about Miss California's answer about gay marriage at Sunday's pageant. In case you haven't heard what happened, you can read here and watch it below. A few people have told... [...]
OK, this is just a fun, silly little thing posted by a guy who runs BadJocks and Dumbass Daily. But I got a chuckle out of it. "The Dumbass Daily has learned exclusively that Bo, reportedly from a prominent East..." [...]
Yesterday there were reportedly hundreds of TEA Parties across the country to protest the wasteful collection and spending of the money of hardworking Americans. It was very sad to hear network after network try to characterize the people there as... [...]
This is an example of why I believe there is a bias in the media that favors Democrats over Republicans. I have watched for years how the party affiliation of politicians involved in "positive" stories and "negative" stories is identified.... [...]
For some reason, my building does not have recycling. Only seven or eight people live in the building, but still, it's surprising and disappointing. Today as I was leaving, I noticed a disheveled man pushing a shopping cart laden with... [...]
After Prop 8 passed in California, there was an outpouring of thought about what to do next. The terrible TV commercials that the pro-gay-rights side aired were targeted and the people who led to their creation were blamed. There were... [...]
There has been recent outrage from the PC police over some recent cartoons and comments linking Barack Obama and members of his Administration to monkeys and chimps. Screams of racism are coming down from on high, while the Elitist Left... [...]
It's been a couple months since I last wrote, but that's for good reason. On Dec. 17, Dan and I packed our car and headed West. It's been a return to Los Angeles for me after five years in New... [...]
I am in a constant search for movies that move me. I will make them after I move to Los Angeles. But even when I'm making them, finding films that linger with me for days after I see them is... [...]
Leave it to a straight man to figure out how to say send a message about same-sex love that no gay person has been able to figure out. Tennis great Bjorn Borg's new commercial promoting his underwear line and matchmaking... [...]
Every year I get tons of requests for info about the gay Toys for Tots party in New York City. So, if you're looking for that info, here it is. You have to buy a ticket this year (as you... [...]
I went to the same-sex marriage protest in Manhattan on Wednesday night where (in my humble estimate) about 5,000 people demonstrated. While it was nice to see so many people standing up for marriage rights, I left very quickly quite... [...]
I moved to New York City five years ago to be with Dan. It was an amazing time in my life. I had met the person I'll spend the rest of my life with and a new city meant new... [...]
For those of you in Georgia about to vote in the Senate run-off race, consider this. The Democrats are telling you that they plan to push through a bailout of the auto industry. Though the New York Times uses a... [...]
I'm no big fan of protest rallies, because I think they're generally ineffective. Still, I'm going to attend the rally against the Mormon Church here in NYC on Wednesday night because I think it's good to let the Mormons and... [...]
I was disgusted to see an email the Human Rights Campaign sent out Tuesday night declaring victory in the election. Despite the fact that anti-gay initiatives passed in Florida, Arkansas, Arizona and California, HRC said it was a victory because... [...]
I got a call from someone named Clark at No On 8 today. He's looking for volunteers on election day to get out the vote in California. Whether you're a Republican or a Democrat, you can help No On 8... [...]
For those interested in smaller government . . . I've recently started getting a newsletter from GetLiberty.org. I like a lot of what they have to say. Definitely take a few moments and click through to check it out. [...]
I am very saddened to see how the Left has been in attack mode targeting the now-famous Joe the Plumber. In case you didn't know, Joe Wurzelbacher is a plumber in Ohio who asked Barack Obama about his tax plan... [...]
Joe Biden is known for saying wacky things, but this one takes the cake. He told supporters over the weekend that a worldwide crisis will ensue if Obama is elected. He said that it will be some kind of conscious... [...]
As you may know, Dan and I are moving back to Los Angeles at the end of the year. We would like to be able to get married when we get there. But that entirely depends on whether Proposition 8... [...]
Here is some encouragement from me and a bunch of other people to not only vote NO on Prop 8 in California, but also to give money wherever possible. It would really, really suck to have marriage rights in California... [...]
And I present to you a clear demonstration of just how open-minded the elitist liberals of Manhattan are to anyone who disagrees with anything they believe in. I mean, how DARE patriotic Americans dare show their faces on the streets... [...]
I have been reading some of the comments on this blog and have realized that many have mistaken my support for McCain-Palin as something it's not, so let me make this clear. The ticket of Obama-Biden is more "gay-friendly" in... [...]
Some of the countless lies that Obama supporters (not Obama, but rather his supporters) are spreading about Sarah Palin involve her soon-to-be son-in-law, Levi Johnston. They say that he is being forced into a marriage to Palin's daughter, and that... [...]
It's been interesting to see the reaction of the Vice-Presidential debate last night. I was on a plane, so I have only seen clips; I can't give my personal thoughts on it. But it's been fascinating to see people react... [...]
Last night Bill O'Reilly had a squirming Barney Frank, the ultra-Leftist gay Congressman from Massachusetts who once had a prostitution ring run from his home while he was in a relationship with a male prostitute, blaming everyone but himself for... [...]
Log Cabin Republicans have created an organization called Republicans Against 8 to rally Republican voters against the California Constitutional Amendment banning same-sex marriage. Though Democrats dominate the voter registration in California, many of them will be voting for the ban,... [...]
The Obama campaign keeps talking about how John McCain voted with George Bush 90% of the time last year. And that's true. But what they don't tell you is that Joe Biden, Obama's running mate, voted with Bush a majority... [...]
Philadelphia Gay News scored an interview with Barack Obama on gay issues. In addition to a non-answer about trying to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act, he said he would NOT use executive order to allow gays in the military... [...]
In a continuing effort to debunk the lies that the Crazy Left is spreading about Sarah Palin, here is the truth about her belief in creationism.I can't find anywhere that says she believes in creationism, but I personally tend to... [...]
It's so interesting that Obama doesn't talk much about his opposition to the Iraq War and the surge, which were major foundations for his campaign and a large part of why he beat Hillary Clinton. It was issue No. 1... [...]
Actor Matt Damon has declared Sarah Palin unfit to be Vice-President. Well thank heavens he’s weighed in; I was really wondering what a college drop-out actor in Hollywood thinks about her. Guess I better change my vote!“I think that’s a... [...]
Today is Dan's 36th birthday. I tease him quite a bit about being "older" than I ... By a whopping nine months. One of the things I have become acutely aware of as I get older is my pure joy... [...]
Supporters of Barack Obama have been spreading more nasty lies about the church that Sarah Palin attends. Among many other lies, they have said that her church sponsors anti-gay prayer events. Greta Van Susteren this week spent some time talking... [...]
Chip Arndt, best known as "the other" gay guy who won Amazing Race a few years back, has become a staunch liberal Democrat; and now he joins the ranks of the rest of the fear mongers on the Left. He... [...]
Log Cabin Republicans, the largest organization of gay Republicans, today endorsed John McCain for President. I couldn't agree more. Unlike other "gay rights" groups that are really only interested in playing politics and getting Democrats elected, LCR is committed to... [...]
For years, liberal Democrats have professed to be champions of women's rights. They have claimed to fight to break glass ceilings and introduce women to the upper echelons of business and government. It turns out, they only support women who... [...]
When I first heard the news this morning that John McCain had selected Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate, I was dubious. What does she bring to the campaign, I wondered? Alaska is already solidly Republican. And would... [...]
People have been using Facebook all day to share their partisan thoughts on McCain's choice of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate. Some of the nastiest, most mean-spirited from these "open-minded" liberals who are linked to me: RB... [...]
Barack Obama accepted his party's nomination last night with a one-hour speech that sounded a lot like Bill Clinton's campaign 16 years ago: Promises to fix everything that ails anyone's life. I kept a tally and, while promising to reduce... [...]
Did we already conquer the global warming that Al Gore and many others have said will doom humanity? I've been talking to people around the country in the last week and there is a clear consensus: The weather was really... [...]
You want to know how lopsided and biased the media coverage of the presidential election has been so far? Even uber-liberal Jack Cafferty is admitting it! He talked today about the press coverage of Barack Obama’s international trip. All three... [...]
When Bill Clinton was in office, I remember there being a select few things that I could have agreed with him on, namely gay rights and the environment. Unfortunately, Clinton threw both under the bus to get elected and get... [...]
For those of you, like me, who shrugged their shoulders when the iphone craze his last year, and who are yawning at the renewed craze over iphone 2, your patience and lack of enthusiasm is about to pay off. Google... [...]
I saw my first firefly in the city the other night. Walking home along 23rd street, a flash hovering above the sidewalk caught my eye; and sure enough, it was a firefly. I actually felt bad for the little fella;... [...]
Barack Obama has claimed from day one to be a different kind of candidate. He's claimed to want to cut through the bull. He's claimed to have the country's best interest at heart. He's claimed to be honest and have... [...]
"Hi, I'm Barry Obama. I just want everyone to know that I have a white mother. And I have white grandparents. And I talk to white people. I approved this message, because I want everyone to know that white people... [...]
It’s been a long time since I posted on this blog. It’s been an incredibly busy time for me. But time is freeing up a little; and, I found the impetus I have been looking for to start up again.... [...]
This couldn't be going any better. Hillary Clinton last night won primaries in Ohio and Texas, reviving her sagging campaign after losing 11 straight states (oh, she also won Rhode Island). While Obama still leads in the all-important delegate count,... [...]
In August, on one of our two trips to the Catskills, I bought a bird feeder to hang outside our apartment in Manhattan. When I was a kid, I loved birds. I got it from my grandmother, who had probably... [...]
The 22nd (believe it or not) annual Toys For Tots party in Manhattan will have some familiarity and some changes. The biggest changes are a $35 ticket price and a need to buy a ticket in advance of the party.... [...]
I haven't been paying much attention to the election, since I can't even cast a vote for another four months or so. I heard some rumblings about Hillary Clinton's "plantgate" (shocker) and Giuliani picking up Pat Robertson's endorsement (an actual... [...]
I'm going to write an "I'm back" post later today, but I just had to jump into this one. Believe it or not, "ongoingness" is a word in Merrriam-Webster's online dictionary. It's like they've waved the white flag and everything... [...]
