This video has to put an instant smile on your face. Best entrance to a wedding I have ever seen!

Thanks Steven for sending this to me!

Missed It

Even though I was trying to keep track of a certain two things so that i could mention it on this here blog thingy, like most things, they both slipped my mind.

First, roughly 6 posts ago, I reached my 400th post! Thats pretty damn good and that is alot of writing people!

I also forgot to mention that on July 18th, 2009, it was my 2 year blog anniversary. Thats 730 days where I at least though about writing in my blog. Even though only 406 posts have been written, I want to thank those of you who have been reading from the very beginning, listening to me bitch, vent, brag, and checking out my music choices. I also want to thank those who came in somewhere along the ride and decided to stick around to see what else I had to say. Its always nice to know someone is out there listening.

You all rock. Keep on readin and keep livin the dream peeps! I do it for you guys. Well and me too. I will leave you with my current Song of the Second. Check it out.

Peace

NYC Trip!

Looks like I will be NYC bound for a few days over Labor Day weekend! The bf and I will be coming to attend the Electric Zoo Festival. This is an electronic music festival in Randall Island Park. More importantly, it will only be my second time coming to NYC ever! The first time was a long time ago when I was only 18 so I was never able to REALLY experience the city.

I am thrilled to check out NYC nightlife. As Pittsburgh's gay scene has started to vanish into thin air, it will be great to go to a real city.

The Evolution of Woof

A long time ago, a burly hairy fella decided that because of his masculine and manliness characteristics, that he would associate himself with the term "Bear". Somewhere amongst his lifetime or perhaps by another Bear that had followed in his footsteps, started using a word that I still cannot figure out if it is being used as a noun, verb, or adjective. This word is "Woof". Some of you homosexuals possibly may have heard this being thrown around at your local grocery store, in pornographic videos featuring said bears, or even at the near by florist where I hear many of these bears can be found.

I am not certain how the word Woof ever came about in the bear community, as woof is mostly associated with dogs. Perhaps during a hot S&M session where a dominant daddy was calling his sub a dirty dog or something and the sub responded by woofing like a dog. And then it just caught on during orgies and sex clubs. Who knows. We can all speculate and create our own fun scenarios.

I haven't necessarily partaken much in using the word woof, unless surrounded by bears where the word is thrown around much more loosely than in an everyday setting. I have come fond of the term though, since sprouting my affection for a nice muscle bear. However, during my recent vacation to Rehoboth Beach, I met someone who i had seen around Pittsburgh before, but had since moved away to NYC. This person, is by my terms a young bear coming into his own or at least would fit into the cub category. He is pictured in some of my photos from the beach looking snazzy with his sexy beard wearing a blue tank top. And yes boys, he is single.

Anyways, he possibly created the next step or evolution with the word woof. We see everyday words being shortened due to mouth laziness. We cut off unnecessary syllables and letters that we feel just dont need to be there. Well, young Steven has done just that, and has transformed Woof into Ooof. Well you know because the 'wah-oof' was just too much to handle. So now simply and elegantly stated 'ooof' is the next step in the woof evolution.

When the term is being used, I was advised it must be said in a very low almost grizzly and sexy way. Perhaps a small amount of flem in the back of the throat can help achieve an even better sounding Ooof. Go ahead try it.

And repeat.

One more.

See! Sounds better than Woof. As soon as I heard Steven say the word I knew I witnessed something magical. That i was in the presence of something bigger than life. I explained to young Steven that this may start a movement but I will give him credit for being this movements leader. I will just take credit for putting it out there in the world and being the spokesperson for it.

So say it with me bears and bear affectionados, Ooooof!

Back from the Beach!

Rehoboth Beach was amazing! The weather was perfect, the men were hot, there was relatively no drama, and I didnt get horribly burned. What more could a guy ask for?!

I dont have any amazing stories to tell sadly. Everything basically went as planned. I went to the beach everyday! I went to the bars every night! And ate unhealthy every damn day too. I even managed to go to the gym...once. But once is better than nothin.

I will go into some more details during the next few days. But here are some pictures to get started. Enjoy!

Me!

Finally!!!

I am off of work today, which is quite nice. Although, my day will be spent packing for my week vacation at Rehoboth Beach and cleaning my loft so I dont come back to a mess. I am so frickin excited though that i will be at the beach tomorrow. I am however, not looking forward to the drive there. It is roughly a 6 hour drive, however, with traffic, and it being the 4th, I know it is going to turn into an 8 or 9 hour drive. Not fun!

So because of my vacation, my blogging will be at a minimum after this until next weekend. I am sure i will have plenty of pictures to share and stories.

Til then, Happy 4th of July America, and have a great weekend and week to everyone else!

Songs of the Second

Some of the tunes I will be listening to on the beach...
