One of the reasons Ralph and I began a friendship that turned into 25 years–soon to be 26 in February next year–is due to the music of Roxette. We loved their music, and bonded over their first album that hadn’t been released in the US, and all the new singles and albums that came after. […]
Remembering The Good
We’re getting closer to the close of 2020, and not a moment too soon. We survived an election, another year under an unfriendly administration (depending on your politics), the passing of friends and family…okay, and a couple of celebrities, and we’re still in the midst of a pandemic. The shit starts to blur together after […]
Seasons Greetings & The Future of the Face of Gay: 2013
Did you ever have that dream? You know, the one where you see yourself standing in sun-god robes on a pyramid, with a thousand naked women screaming and throwing little pickles at you? Me either. Seriously, I think Patricia Logan may be the only person who has that one…or the only one who ripped it […]
Thanksgiving: Thanks for Giving and Would You Please Give It Again?
In an effort for me to understand just what I should be thankful for during the holiday today, I decided to look up the word Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, all the books in the flat are either IT manuals or they’re written in half English, half Cantonese. So, I broke it down like any author worth his […]
Kristoffer Gair Vs. Patricia Logan’s 2012 New Year’s Assassins
So with Ralph home and the amount of cooking, cleaning up after him, catering to his every whim, offering to sit on his lap like Santa and running around places we didn’t need to go for things we didn’t need or end up buying, I missed my Monday blog post. That’s the short of it […]
Wuv Doesn’t Ask Why. Yes, Wuv.
Yes, wuv. I’m being cute about it because I can. A number of folks were featuring blog posts about what they were thankful for before the holiday, only I wanted to hold off a bit, see how the holiday went, collect my thoughts and then give it a shot. I’m glad I did because having […]
Kris Trek: The Search For A F***ing Christmas Tree
“Consistency is the root of all repetition.” I responded with that in an IM to someone at work last week. He thought I was being a smart ass, but the truth is I had no idea what it meant, what it was supposed to mean or what relevance it may or may not have in […]
It’s All About Starting New Traditions, But Including Star Trek
Did you know that a small, kinda largish number of people don’t keep up with me on my blog? I know, crazy, right? I’ve been documenting my progress on Operation Decorate-Before-My-Guy-Comes-Home-For-Thanksgiving on Facebook for the past week–I told you all about it in my previous blog post–and I gotta tell you, it’s an uphill battle. […]
Red Profit Margin, White Christmas, Blu-Ray!
Season’s Greetings! Yes, nothing like waiting until the last minute to send out a Christmas blog/letter. So what can be said about 2008 that hasn’t been already? It would be easy to concentrate on the negative things because so many people have been in the muck of it all, especially with the economy. Heck, my […]
