Arrrrgh! My credit card company called me earlier to report some fraudulent charges. I'm glad they did, but it really cranks me that someone stole my number. Luckily, the credit card company won't charge me anything. The thief started off just charging a couple small things - a NY Times on-line subscription and a song on iTunes, and then tried to charge two sets of train tickets in Rome. That's when they were caught, the card was suspended, and they called me. Bugger!

So I'll remind all of you out there in Blogland to regularly check your credit card statements before you send in the payment check. And now that you can get a free credit report each year, do so every year to check that no one has stolen your identity. (I'll add the link once I find it.)

Buckeyes 4-0!! The season is looking up, but they really haven't been tested. Is it just me, or do the end zones at the stadium look unnaturally red this season? What is up with that?!

Now on to TMI Tuesday #102:

1. Who did you think you would marry in elementary school? There were a few girls that I thought would be great wives in a Second Grade kind of way - Bena, Michelle, Patty, and Carla. Not sure what happened to Patty as she moved after 2nd Grade. I was good friends with the others until high school when we all went different ways. I see Michelle occasionally when I'm home, and I'm glad I didn't pursue her - just not my type. Haven't seen Carla since high school graduation as she hasn't gone to any of the reunions. Bena was the babe in nerds clothing during high school. It wasn't until senior photos were taken that she lost the glasses, smiled, let her hair grow out, and grew about foot that I realized that I should have kept in closer contact with her during high school. But who am I to talk? I look at pictures of me from high school and I'm surprised that I didn't get beaten-up regularly or was president of the A/V Club (neither of which happened).

2. Which Muppet is your favorite? Why? Grover. I loved his sense of humor and the funny situations he got himself into. I always pretended to be him when we played Muppets. We had the Ernie & Bert puppets, and an Oscar, I think. I recently found some old Sesame Street books - the best ones are about Grover.

3. Which politician would you most like to screw? [For pleasure or revenge] I can't think of any that are even remotely attractive enough to even get a chubby over. Any suggestions?

4. How did you first find the g-spot? Reading about it! lol She doesn't like penetration with fingers or other non-penis objects, so we have yet to discover it.

5. What is the best costume you've ever worn? I was a hippy-beatnik sort of thing. I grew a goatee and mustache, wore a tie-dyed shirt, a beanie, a rope belt, sandals, a big 'peace' sign on a leather necklace, and beads around my neck. It looked better than this description. Really, it did.

Bonus (as in optional):Does pornography liberate or deteriorate society? Like anything else (alcohol, drugs (both legal and illegal), TV, politicians, video games), it can and does both. It really depends on how the individual handles it. For some, porn is:

• Employment (model, actor/actress, photographer, video distributor, web-site owner, etc). This can be good as it helps someone earn a living that they may not otherwise be able to. It can be bad in that the person may not be earning their fair share or earning their money by exploiting others. It might keep them from doing something else (but so can that "real" job that you hate but you keep because it "pays the bills".)
  
  
• Educational. Some couples may view it in order to improve or spice up their sex life (good). Kids may look at it to learn about sex - maybe not so good as they may not learn all that they need to in order to have a healthy outlook on sex.
  
  
• A means of addiction or escape. Looking at it all day long while neglecting the rest of life's responsibilities to satisfy the addiction is bad. Its very accessible. It could lead one to step up the addiction food chain.
  
  
• A means of relieving stress or boredom. Some may not have time or ability to always do something else, and viewing porn may be thier way of unwinding after a tough day.

TMI Tuesday #101

1. What is one thing a your significant other could do to you to rock your world? There's always the ravaging me with non-stop, no-holds-barred, she-takes-the-lead sex while wearing some really, really fine lingerie that I've given her, but that's too obvious and cliche. Then there's surprising me with a trip to Las Vegas and tickets to the Star Trek experience, but again, too obvious. Aerating and re-seeding the lawn - Bingo!

2. Which super power (ability to turn invisible, ability to read people's thoughts, or invulnerability) would you take and why? Stop me if you think you've heard this one before - I'd like invisibility and the ability to stop time along the lines of the movie Cashback. So I'd use my super powers perversely? Like you aren't as well? Anyway, I'd stop time to find all the hot chicks and undress them. No, I wouldn't do bad things to them or violate them, it would be for my own personal visual enjoyment. I suppose after a while I'd then use those powers for the good of mankind.

3. Would you rather be tied up or tie someone else up? Why? I'd rather be tied up. I'm submissive by nature, and other than the knots I learned in the Boy Scouts, I'd probably end up causing a bigger problem if I tied up someone else.

4. What is your best physical and non physical asset? Physical: I'd say my legs. I've been running for so many years that I think they look great. Non-physical: My magnetic and charming personality, and my sense of comedic sense of sarcasm.

5. If they were naming new Dwarfs beyond the seven what would your name be and why? Moby. Being taller and better looking than the rest of them, they'd always be saying "He's such a dick!"

Bonus: What's the most embarrassing thing you ever bought? When I was 8 my mom asked me to buy some lottery tickets for her. I don't think either one of us thought that kids couldn't buy them. So there I was at the counter asking for tickets over and over until the clerk said that kids couldn't buy them. I said they were for my mother, and he still didn't sell them to me. I got upset and started crying as I was afraid of getting in trouble from my mom for not getting them, as well as afraid the store would call the police on me. The clerk started laughing at me, and my mom eventually came in to the store to find out why it was taking so long. It doesn't seem so embarassing now, but when I was 8 it was.

Here's my finishers' medal!! Another cell phone picture - that's the reason for the mirror image. I had a great time! I finished about a minute less than my prediction and felt fine. The only "oops" was at mile 8. There was a table with gel packs for the runners. I tried getting over to it but couldn't. A guy in front of me grabbed a handful and asked if I wanted one. I took one and thanked him. After one mouthful I read the label: "Double Latte". I had the biggest caffeine buzz for the next two miles. Just way too much as I was a bit dizzy. The weather was cool and clear, lots of nice people running and cheering. A definite recommended run if you're ever in Philly this time of year.

The windmills of Pennsylvania. I drove across the state on Saturday and snapped this picture with my cell phone. Near the Sommerset rest stop on the turnpike is this set of wind turbines.

Buckeyes 2-0!! Michigan 0-2!! This season is starting out on the right path.

Beer: Draught vs. bottles. I recently read on a blog somewhere (forgot the reference) that the author had the opinion that bottled beer was being snubbed by beer geeks in favor of draught beer at bars. His opinion was that beer geeks assume that draught beer is fresher and better tasting than the same beer that is also available in bottles at the bar. I disagree. I believe people are looking at ounces per dollar. Many times I've seen that bottled beer (12 oz) costs more than draught (16 oz). The exceptions are Happy Hour discounts. I'd rather pay more for less. Also, depending on the cleanliness of the draught system and glassware, a draught beer may be much worse than bottled - the lines may not have been cleaned, the beer may have been sitting in the lines for an unknown amount of time, dirty glasses may have just been dunked into plain water or dirty soapy water, or the bartender and/or waitstaff may have poured/served the wrong one. At least in a bottle one knows that what's inside is what's on the label. And that the bottle was clean before filling. Enough already...

The Philly Distance run is this Sunday. I feel ready and am looking forward to running my first 1/2 marathon. I should not be counting my chickens before they hatch, but - I've started planning my training routine for the Philly Marathon in November. I can wait to register almost up until race day, so if I'm not in shape for the full, I'll just run the half.

TMI Tuesday #100

1. Where was the first place you ever had sex? A hotel room.

2. Does size matter? (open to interpretation boys and girls). Not really. Breast size doesn't do much for me, large or small. Same with height, legs, butt, and feet. "Is it well proportioned?" is the better question.

3. Have you ever had sex in your office or your place of employment? No, and I don't think I'd want to. My office is temporarily in a trailer, very thin walls, and not a very comfortable place. I've had the daydream in meetings where the meeting turns into an orgy though.

4. Ever been skinny dipping? Yes. The risk of being caught made it fun and exciting. The most recent time was back in 2001 or 2002 while I was in Puerto Rico for work. I was staying in a condominium complex that had an outdoor pool on the top floor. I used to go there late at night and float around nekkid. One time I went up there I heard voices and left - I figured they should enjoy the privacy as I had many times.

5. Top or bottom? Bottom, ma'am. I'll take the submissive role just about anywhere or anytime I can. Although I'll take the top bunk bed.

Bonus: Where were you September 11, 2001? What were you doing when you first heard about the twin towers? I was working in Puerto Rico. I was in an office working alone all morning and then had to go get a document from another office. I walked in to what I thought would be an empty office and found it full of people looking at the computer. They told me and showed me a picture on a website. I didn't believe it and said it was just some sort of Photoshop hoax. They turned on a radio and looked at several other websites. Then it sunk in. By noon they let everyone go home as no one could work. The island was eerily silent the rest of the day. No one was on the roads or outdoors. I met up with some co-workers in a restaurant later in the day to eat and watch the coverage. As the airports were closed and didn't re-open until the weekend, and I was planning on going back the next week anyway, I decided to spend the weekend there and do some sight-seeing.

How was your Labor Day weekend? The weather here in Philly was perfect! I ran 7.5 miles on Friday and 10 on Monday. No homebrewing, but we did the next best thing - visited Weyerbacher Brewing Company in Easton, PA, had many samples, and bought a case to take home. Good stuff if you get a chance to partake!

TMI Tuesday #99

1. What did you eat for dinner yesterday? A hamburger from the grill, 1/2 ear of corn, pasta salad, a beer, and a bunch of appetizers at a friend's. And ice cream cake. The burger was juicy and meaty. Yummy!

2. How much cash is in your purse/wallet right now? $117.25. And I just saw that Victoria's Secret just came out with a reversible bra. Over at The Lingerie Post I saw an offer to get $10 off on one and a free pair of panties. So maybe that might go down by $35.

3. What have you done to avoid being flirted with by someone you didn't like? "Didn't like" in the one that sticks out in my mind didn't mean "disliked", it was more "not attracted to." I just told the girl that (start the horror music) I wasn't interested in being more than friends. Its a crappy line, but that's how I felt. She had this crush from a distance on me, and I hardly knew her. We went out a few times. Very nice and cute girl, but no connection at least on my part. She wanted this big, deep, meaningful relationship, had it all worked out in her mind, and told me all the details too soon. It was like being blindsided. Now if she had taken her time and, perhaps, told me about how she wanted me to fuck her 24/7 while simultaneously taking off her clothes, that would have at least won over my hormone-soaked 22-year-old body.

4. Do you believe the theory "Once a cheater always a cheater"? I don't have enough experience or information. I can only think of a few people that cheated, and so far they haven't cheated again to my knowledge.

5. Describe your sex life in two words. Same-old, same-old.

Bonus (as in optional): Would you/have you ever paid money for sex? I've never paid for sex. I'm not sure I ever would. Its not so much the exchange of money for sex that bothers me. It is the unknown sexual health of the other person that does. Think about it like this: When one goes to a restaurant to pay for a meal, one expects good, decent, healthy food. One would not pay to get food poisoning or rotten food. The same goes for paying for sex.

For those of you in the beer sphere of the world, you may already have heard that Michael Jackson has died. (For those of you not in the beer sphere, Michael Jackson is/was regarded as the world authority on beer and beer styles.) I've read many of his articles and seen interviews on TV. If one wanted to know anything about beer, he's the first place to go to learn. Here's a few links for your reading:

• Lew Bryson
• All About Beer
• Beer Town

As I was surfing around reading the various blog posts, I ran across this gem (I just can't figure out how to imbed the video. Any help out there?): http://youtube.com/watch?v=bRqFPAKQ7WU

The first part of the video kind of sums up my week. Not much going on, just a ho-hum week. The weekend, however, is looking up. The weather in Philly is cooling off to highs in the low-80's and sunny. We're sticking around here, so no time wasted traveling to far away places. There will be the usual grilling out, swimming, and just a small bit of yard work. And running, naturally. My legs felt like mud the last two runs, and feel a lot better today.

Thursday's Random Thoughts:

Running: Three weeks from Sunday is the Philly Distance Run, a half marathon. I'm ready for it. I'll do well for my first 1/2 as long as I keep up my training schedule and not become sick or injured. I just found out that the Philly Marathon in November no longer has team relays. The options now are the full marathon, a 1/2 marathon, and an 8K run. (Why do I keep misspelling 'marathon' as 'marathong'?) Running the 1/2 should not be a problem. I wonder if it is possible for me to go from running a 1/2 in September to a full in November as I've never run a full? I'm disappointed about the relay. Our neighborhood had 30+ people entering the relay the last couple years and it was a lot of fun hanging out with then during the race and the after-race party. Oh well. I'm sure there will still be a party.

Brewing: I haven't brewed beer since around New Year's day. Less than a case of the oatmeal stout left, and it keeps getting better with age. That's the rub with homebrewing - I want to drink it because its good, but I don't want to drink it because there's only a limited quantity. So I need to brew again, perhaps an Oktober Fest over Labor Day.

Photography: Anyone know of a good resource to learn how to take better photos of one's self? I take pretty good photos of others, just not me.

That is all,
Sheen V

TMI Tuesday #97

1. What’s the deal with blue balls? Here's the reference in Wikipedia and that looks pretty good to me. It must be noted here that my balls have never turned blue.

2. What is the hottest vehicular sex scene in a movie? I haven't seen all of the movies listed, and of those I have, the train scene from Risky Business is my pick. Side note: I just realized that the cute girl with whom I occasionally run does bare more than a passing resemblance to Rebecca De Mornay.

3. Strap-on? yes, no, give, receive? Yes. I haven't had the pleasure of receiving yet; it is something I'd like to try.

4. What is the average penis length? Again, according to Wikipedia, the average length is somewhere between 5 and 6 inches. Note to interested females: mine's about 8"; get it while you can! lol

5. How do you stimulate his prostate? Guys, do you like it? From what I've read in Wikipedia and experienced, it can be stimulated from two locations: the "taint" or from inside the rectum. Yes, I do like it. Its something to do during foreplay. Specifically, if she's giving me a footjob, I'll have her push the ball of her foot or heel against my taint. Not quite as good as the internal method, but she won't do that.

Bonus (as in optional): Confession Tuesday... tell me a secret! I'm such a dullard, I can't say I know much of anything that someone else doesn't already know. Most of the stuff that I'd call a "secret" I've written about here somewhere or another. I mean, if you knew me in real life and then read this blog, you'd be constantly saying "OMG, I didn't know that about you. Are you serious? I can't believe this? You, a crossdresser? Like, no way!"

There she goes again...

Very Strange Dreams

I had some very strange dreams last night. Most of my dreams are unusual, but these kind of take the cake. Most strange dreams occur when I'm not feeling well. I ran 7.5 miles after work, and the inside of my elbow has been sore due to over working it at the gym the other day. The elbow's stiffness kept waking me up, and then I'd have another dream. And all I had before bed was one beer.

Dream #1: Scene 1: I was looking at a diagram about how they were going to remove the roof of a building. The roof was made of steel beams and sheet metal, and they were going to use a crane to pick it up in one piece. They were tearing the building down to make room for another. Scene 2: The new building was almost complete. It look a bit like the old one - steel frame that was painted orange and yellow, glass sheathing over top, more than 10 stories tall, curved walls (not a box) - only much bigger and more modern in design. They were working on putting the new roof on, and we (not sure who "we" were, but I was with a group of people) were sitting very close to the base of the building on a grassy hill eating lunch. I had a strange feeling and told everyone that we should not be sitting here as something could fall from above. Scene3: I look up and see someone falling from the top. As the person gets closer I see that it is a girl. Her face is looking right at me, and she's going to land very close to me. She does land not far behind me. Scene 4: The girl is laying on the grass. She has blond hair pulled back into a French braided ponytail. She's wearing a rag-wool sweater and dark jeans that are tucked into black riding boots. Everyone is screaming or crying. Another woman goes to her to see if she needs help, but someone else yells at the woman to let the girl alone, let her have some peace as she lies their dying. I look at the girl on the ground. There's some blood behind her head and her body starts to go into slight convulsions. Another yell to leave her alone. She starts to get up. I'm in disbelief as I assume many of her bones must be broken. She does get up, and her body and limbs are bent strangely. End of dream.

Dream #2: I'm now in that new building. It is a dormitory at the college I went to. I'm there with folks that I now work with. We're near the top of the building in the floor's cafeteria. The workers are setting the tables for breakfast. I think to myself that I had better to the registration office today as I'm going to start living there. This doesn't make sense, I think to myself. Why would work folks be here if I'm going back to school?

Dream #3: I'm at work but not at any place I've worked previously. I know this is work as I see people from many of the jobs where I've worked, and it appears to be some kind of manufacturing plant. We're outside and the sky is getting dark due to a storm that's rolling in from the distance. I think we're near a river that runs along the back of the plant, and I see Phil standing in front of a camera holding a sign that reads "I'm leaving at 3PM". As I keep walking outside Jeremy tells me that he has the stain that we need for the wood. I tell him that I'll get a scrap piece of wood that he can test the stain on. I go over to a wood pile to look for the scrap and I hear Maria talking to me from behind. She's says that she thinks Jeremy is from New Jersey. I think to myself that she wants to talk to me about something else and that's how she wants to start the conversation. (Real life note: I've had a huge crush on Maria since the day I met her. Every time I talk to her I'm as giddy as a schoolgirl. I have that song from West Side Story in my head every time I see her "Maria. I just met a girl named Maria...)

Dream #4: Scene 1: I'm driving a truck in the rain on a highway partially covered by gravel as part of a convoy of trucks. We're driving underneath an elevated highway (sort of like I-35 in Austin, TX). I have to quickly stop as the traffic light turns from green to red. The traffic light isn't the regular kind with three lights in a vertical line - it is just a single light that changes from red to green. Very odd, I think to myself, and even odder to have a traffic light on a highway. We get moving again and we're going too fast for the conditions, too much rain and gravel on the road. Scene 2: Now I'm far above the highway looking down, and I think that it is just a group of toys on a track. But they are going to fast as I can see that there's a traffic jam ahead of them. I try to tell them to slow down. No good. The first truck barrels through the traffic, going sideways and clearing a large swath of the highway. The other trucks behind the first slow down as they move through this cleared area. They must be toys, I think to myself, as none of the cars or trucks are wrecked.

Ok, those were the dreams. I often have the kinds of dreams in which I'm at a place that I've been previously but with acquaintances that don't belong there. The places are familiar, but not exactly as they were. Like the dormitory. I remember having a dream about being in a dormitory in which I lived during junior year in college. Only in the dream the halls were not straight or flat - one would have to go up or down a few steps every so often or turn left then right to keep going down it.

I recently read Selected Stories by Philip K Dick. He wrote the stories that were the basis for Total Recall, Minority Report, Blade Runner, Paycheck, A Scanner Darkly, to name a few. At least he had schizophrenia and drugs to fuel his unique visions.

TMI Tuesday #96

1. Define "infidelity" as it relates to a relationship. The dictionary states that it is the lack of faithfulness, and I'd agree and expand: the lack of faithfulness in thoughts and deeds. Have you ever been guilty of infidelity? No, and I'm sure she would think otherwise as she equates viewing porn as wrong, i.e., as a substitute for her. This was a big issue early on in our relationship. I think she now understands that it is not a substitute. Have you ever been the victim of infidelity? Have you ever been a participant in someone else's infidelity? Not that I'm aware of for both questions.

2. What is the last thing you stole? Oh me, oh my, I stole some ice cream yesterday. The building complex in which I work has a shared cafeteria. In the eating area one company (not the one I work for) had some ice cream set out for their folks as a "Thank You". Well, we saw people from other companies dig in, so I did too on my way out. Instant karma - I had a belly ache later.

3. Name on place in your country that you have never been but would like to visit and why. Either of the NASA locations in Texas or Florida. I've been a space nut ever since I was a kid. On one of my early birthday cakes was a plastic Gemini space capsule. I've tons of info from NASA about the space program. I've always wanted to go to one of the space centers to see the real things.

Side note: When I was a kid I really wanted to be an astronaut. I sometimes think that I'm better off that I didn't pursue that dream. The space program is a shell of what it could have been under better leadership (NASA management and the US government). On the other hand, maybe if I did go into that field I could have made some contribution to get it back on track.

4. Which movies can you watch over and over again? Monty Python's Search for the Holy Grail and The Meaning of Life, Star Wars Episode IV, Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery, LA Stories, Akira, Sixteen Candles. I'm sure there are others.

5. Who is the last person you saw naked? Her this morning. That's the trouble - seeing her naked and us also having to get to work so no time for fun. Just out of the shower fresh is my favorite time for having fun.

Bonus (as in optional): In honor of the 237 reasons we have sex study. Tell us at least five but not more than ten reason you have had sex.

1. I wanted to achieve an orgasm.
2. I wanted to experience the physical pleasure.
3. I wanted to please my partner.
4. I wanted to release anxiety/stress.
5. I wanted to express my love for the person.
6. I wanted to feel connected to the person.

I'm pretty sure she's walking to the LA Fitness that's down the street to the right about another 1/2 mile. This photo was taken last week, and I got another one today that didn't turn out so well.

This summary is not available. Please click here to view the post.

Hi everyone! I'm back from vacation. Pictures are posted below for your viewing pleasure that I took with my cell phone's camera. Apparently I was sending them to a new blog address and not the one that I had set up a while ago.

It was a very good week. It rained a bit on Sunday and Monday, and the rest of the week was sunny and warm with low humidity. I did all the stuff we do at the shore: caught some rays and read at the beach; ran a few times; ate seafood, ice cream and drank beer everyday; played miniature golf; swam at the motel's pool; and "studied" lots of anatomy of the female type everywhere I went. The bikini is such the perfect article of clothing. Some say it leaves nothing to the imagination, however, my imagination seems to go into overdrive when I see a woman in a perfectly fitted bikini. The only thing lacking was any form of sexual activity. Too much family around. And nothing makes me hornier than being in the water with lots of said female anatomy around for my viewing pleasure. I'll have to make up for it this week. On our way back yesterday we stopped at Atlantic City for a few hours to walk the boardwalk. We need to go there sometime for at least a night's stay.

And finally, thankfully, none of us in the office were let go last week. The layoffs hit others locations.

Vacation

I'm on vacation the week of July 29th so I won't be blogging in the traditional sense. I will, however, try to send a picture from my camera phone to this blog every day.

Hopefully I'm over the stomach bug I had last week. I missed a 5K because of it (and a chance at seeing the hot girl that I usually see at these races). There's another 5K for which I'm registered this Wednesday night, a trail run, so hopefully I'll see her there.


TMI Tuesday

1. Leather, lace or silk? I like silk. Not much experience with leather, and lace can be chaffing.


2. Do you subscribe (or regularly buy) to any "dirty" magazines? Which ones? Yes, I regularly buy Leg Show magazine, dedicated to the foot, leg, and hosiery fetishist. In fact, I just picked up the latest last Friday. I've reviewed a few of the past issues in this blog. I considerate it a very good magazine, far better than any of the other magazines that cover the same topic.

There are a few things that separate good magazines from the bad:

1. Print quality. Some mags have pictures that are not printed well or printed on poor quality paper. Think of the difference between Playboy and the ads in the Sunday newspaper. Leg Show's print quality is usually very good.
2. Quality of the photo. Some photo layouts are nothing but close-ups, or the camera is too far away from the subject, or the picture on the page is too small to show any detail, or the photo is just not cropped correctly. Playboy, Leg Show, and Hustler take and print great photos - very detailed, good coloring, large pictures.
3. Subject matter. Some of the other leg/hosiery magazines say they are just that. They just don't deliver it as well. Yes, the models may all be wearing stockings or pantyhose, but the hosiery isn't given the same attention. Ok, enough of my rant...
   

3. Have you ever had sex in water (tub/pool/lake/ocean)? No, not yet. Anyone want to let me borrow some time in their hot tub or pool?

4. The three words that best describe you in bed are eager, routine, and overbearing. Three words that best describe your most recent partner in bed are routine, passive, and hot (her hands get really hot).

5. Did you lose your virginity as an impetuous youth, "to prove that you loved" him/her, because of a romantic gesture, a newly wed or other (please describe because I can't think of what an "other" might be)? "Other" as I wasn't an impetuous youth (not old either).

Bonus (as in optional): Name three words that: a) get you excited: chocolate, beer (micro brew), sex. b) make you squirm: needles, blood, abscess c) make you laugh: "Ni!", gadzooks, cheeky.

Update: Just a few notes on the August issue of Leg Show. Adriana 52***; Ashely Blue 43; Alaya 24; Kiara 54*; Charlie 61***; Daphne 52**; Steffi 44**; Helene 29; Jennifer 54***; Glimpse 26; Nataleigh 16. Let me know if you want to know what the number mean. Oh, and the porn "Employ My Pussy" is very good.

The "L" word is spreading around the office. As in Layoff. Seems that the market is down for the product that our company makes and doesn't look like it will pick up anytime soon. My manager was let go in March, and everyone is pretty sure they are going to close our location. I've already started making calls to other possible employers. Any advice for the layoff meeting?

I was pretty sick last week with the intestinal flu that's been going around. By Thursday I thought I was better, until today. Something just isn't right - dizzy, clammy hands & feet.

Philly's Lost...

10,000 baseball games and its marbles. What better way to celebrate than pouring 10,000 marbles down the Art Museum steps! Here's the video! I think they should have given the bucket a bigger push.

And what about those lame commercials for Outback Steakhouse with the Pet Shop Boys sound-alike song (or is it really them)? Irritating as all get out to me. I liked the PSBs in the '80's, but those commercials are just annoying.

Oh, and I've added a chat widget at the bottom of the blog. So if you're here when I'm here too, we can chat!

TMI Tuesday again...

1. What's the sexiest type of underwear? "The ones she was wearing." lol! Seriously, I like string bikinis and boy-shorts the best. They give definition to a woman's shape. Thongs are nice, but you might as well not wear anything.

2. Would you/have you ever paid money for sex? No. It would have to be some spectacular experience to be worth paying for. I mean, good looks don't always equal sexual prowess (and vice versa), so how would I know that I'm going to get my money's worth beforehand? Pay afterwards? Not a good deal for the other person as one could always say that it wasn't worth x # of $'s. Porn raises the bar. One might think "Wow, if she could do that like so-and-so did in that porn video, I'd pay the big bucks."

3. Is facial/body hair sexy or no? (Moustache, chest, etc. for men, and underarms/legs for women.) Or do you frankly not care? On women, light body hair is okay, and I mean light in color and thickness. Its kind of attractive. It says that she's confident in her own self that some hair doesn't matter. Dark, thick hair, though, has to go on legs & underarms. I wish it were the norm for men to shave off body hair too as I can't stand mine.

4. What is the strangest thing you've ever seen featured in pornography? There's stuff that I've seen in which I'd never, ever participate (animals, scat, piercing), and some that just seem kind of odd (braces). To each his own as long as it is legal and consensual.

5. What's worse, not enough sex or too much? Is there such a thing as "too much"? I'd go with not enough. I mean, when one doesn't have enough then one starts looking at porn alone and starts blogging about it. When one has too much one has no time to blog about it. One has had too much when one becomes too sore to do it again.

Bonus: What's the most illegal thing you've ever done (that you can admit to, at least)? Were you caught? "I've been advised by my legal counsel not to answer that question." Ok, so I've run more than a few red lights in my driving life, and I've removed some mattress tags, and I've passed people in the right lane, and I've worn white after Labor Day, so sue me! Never been caught!

"This blog is open to invited readers only." I've seen this on a few blogs on my blog roll that I used to read and now can't. I don't mind not being able to view someone's blog as they can be very personal and not everyone wants just anyone to see their most personal information. What does bother me is that there's no way to contact the blogger to ask to be invited. I'd prefer to have someone tell me that they don't want me to see their blog for no reason at all (even by form letter) then to just be totally blocked.

I'm really getting the crossdressing itch bad lately. Stress at work has been running high and I just need some extended "me time". If only I had the time to slip on some stockings, a nice bra & pantie set, women's khaki pants & blouse, a pair of heels, and go somewhere, even if it were just to the coffee shop or to the mall for a while. The down side is that its too blazing hot outside to wear all that stuff.

And now for TMI Tuesday:

1. Who was your childhood hero? I'm going plural on this one. First, my Dad. He played football in high school and lettered. When you're a kid, that was the equivalent of playing professional football. He's smart, knows everyone everywhere we go. He was in the Army Air Corps in WWII. He was born in Italy. What more evidence is needed to make him your hero too? My other childhood heroes were Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock. I started watching Star Trek in the early '70's when it was in syndication, and still do.

2. Have you ever had sex with someone who has a myspace page? No. I don't even have a myspace page. No need to - this blog is my own space. I do have "me time", so maybe that counts.

3. What fantasies have you openly told your partner about? D/s where she's the D, and she doesn't really go for that type of stuff.

4. Have you ever said you love someone but didn't mean it? I can't think of anyone specific, but probably some relative or some acquaintance in passing.

5. Have you ever woke up in the morning and did not know the person who was next to you? Not yet.

Bonus (as in optional): Do you remember a time when you were having sex that you smile or even laugh about now? Do tell.... Sure, the first time we tried it doggy-style. I kept telling her to arch her back, and she kept arching it up instead of down making it more difficult to get it in. After that I said that there are good reasons to watch porn, one of them being to get the motions right, and she didn't go for that.

I'm late TMI for this week. Its been a busy one. The 'rents came out for a visit for the 4th. We had lots of fun - grilling out, going to the parade on the 4th, going out for dinner. Its great to see them as they live in another state. We talk at least once a week, and nothing beats seeing them in person.

1. Describe your first kiss. The first "real" kiss, not just a peck on the lips - we were lip kissing for a long time and I assumed she wasn't a French kisser, then she stuck her tongue way into my mouth. I just about gagged our of surprise. She thought I didn't like it, and I kept telling her that I loved it, I just wasn't expecting it.

2. Should a person's pubic hair be trimmed, shaved, or just grown out as the jungle God intended it to be? There has to be some grooming going on. For me, I keep the hair above my cock trimmed short, and everything below shaved smooth. I think that's a good look for guys. Some guys can shave it all and that's looks good too. Women have lots more options. Let it grow out above and shave below the top of the vag, or trim above, or shave it in a neat pattern, or shave all of it. If you're lucky IMO you naturally don't have much hair at all down there. I wish that were me - naturally sparse body hair. Actually I think its hot for a woman not to shave any part of her body if she naturally doesn't have much hair.

3. What's the best super-hero comic book movie ever made? Akira, a Japanese manga. No one is actually a super hero per se - a few have super powers and it is a comic book.

4. Coke or Pepsi? Diet Coke, please. Even the Diet Coke with lime is good. Diet Dr. Pepper rules!!

5. Have you ever been caught masturbating? Yep, I'm sure I've written about it here somewhere. If not, let me know. Maybe I should try to make a photo story...

6. Which way do you lean your head when going for a kiss? Usually to the left.

7. Jockstraps, sexy or no? I'd say no. I've never had to wear one, so I'm not sure if it would make me feel sexy or not. It would depend on the fabric.

Bonus (as in optional): Have you ever used the excuse, "Oh, I was so drunk that night, I don't remember a THING!" There were a few times that happened in college. I'd write about it, but, you guessed it, I don't remember, lol!

Masturbation. We all do it (at least those that read my blog ;) ) I used to think that the habits and rituals that are part of my routine were somewhat "out there." Who else other than me would edge for hours on end? Who else would start stripping down to nothing once the house was empty, or alone in a hotel room or someone else's home? Who else has a favorite towel they lay down on when doing the deed? Who else would plan all the little details of a session knowing the house would be empty when returning to it, or once the hotel room is reached?

I used to think I was the only one that did these things. Then I stumbled onto the blogsphere and found that there are others just like me. And today I was listening to WMMR and they were talking about the very same things! Ok, so DJ's aren't your typical people. If they are talking about it, then there must be lots of other people doing the same. I don't feel so odd now. They do Podcast the morning program so download it if you dare!

I almost snapped a picture of the MILF today as I was driving to work. However, I was unsuccessful as I was so intent on listening to the radio that I missed the opportunity. I'm going to have to start going to the supermarket in that neighborhood...

Only in Philly....

...in the land of cheesesteaks, water ice, Ben Franklin, there's WMMR and this. Gadzooks, what will they do next?!

MILF: Most people would be put off by a road closure and detour. Not me. Instead of zipping up 309 to get to work as my entrance is closed, I take the detour. And am I ever thankful. Without having to take the detour, I never would have experienced the joy of seeing the MIFL that walks along one of the roads every morning. Today was just a bit better. She was on my side of the road wearing a hot pink jogging bra and tight black shorts. OMG! What a hottie! As I was driving by she was bent over tying her shoe lace giving be a great view of her incredible ass, then she stood up and turned giving me another great view of her incredible bust. I know, you are all saying "Get a life!" or "Take some pictures!". I just see it as one small thing in this world that makes going to work something to look forward to.

Fish: Things in the tank are much better now. I tossed all the old sand in the bottom, added new gravel, a new filter, and a plastic alligator. The fish seem much happier. I also found that there are two living sucker fish in the tank. When I took all the fish out to clean the tank I counted only one sucker live fish. Then when I took out the rocks I found another live sucker fish hiding. No telling how long that dead one I removed last week was in there.

TMI Time (and late) again!


1. Does the carpet match the drapes? The carpet has much less gray than the drapes. I've been going gray since I was 20, and I'm just starting to go gray in other places.

2. Have you ever used personal information about someone to blackmail them? I actually did once when I was a teen. I failed my first driving test, and my brother was the only one other than my dad that knew. I told him that if he told anyone else that I'd expose his secret porn stash. If he only knew of the stash I have now...

3. What is your favorite thing to lick? The answer is intuitively obvious.

4. Have you ever had sex in a place of worship? (i.e., church, temple, mosque, etc.) No, and I don't think I'll put it on the list.

5. If you watch video porn, do you buy it in a store, from a catalog, online, or download it? LINK!!! ;) I've bought a few in a store and have downloaded some. See the links at the bottom right. I'd rather download the free stuff. After watching a video a few times the "newness" wears off and its just not as exciting to watch over and over. Its almost like I want to be able to direct the actors - "Do that again, do that just a little bit longer, get a close-up of that."

Bonus (as in optional): How often, if ever, do you "fake it?" No, a man's orgasm is pretty evident.

Ran another 5K last night, 23:35 was my time. Not my best, but you should have seen the hill at mile 2! It was about 3/4 mile long and up, up, up it went! This was the first time I had run this specific race. I knew there was a hill and had no idea of the incline. In retrospect I think I could have run a bit faster. That is the goal for next year. In the mean time, I've registered for the Philly Distance Run, a 13.1 mile half marathon in September. This will be my first half marathon so no time goal just yet.

Fish: One of the sucker fish has shuffled off to the great ocean. I figured out over the weekend how to get the filter that the neighbors gave working, and it really needs to be replaced. It is also missing the carbon filter section. I think the fish died because too many toxins are building up in the tank. We replaced some water today, and I plan to go to the aquarium store to buy a new filter, another sucker fish, gravel to replace the sand in the tank, and a siphon to clean the tank easier. Maybe even one of those little toy deep sea divers to put on the bottom.

TMI Time again!

1. If you were to face the Wizard of Oz, would you want more courage, more brains, or more heart? More courage. I'm a chicken when it comes to needles and blood. I've always been afraid of giving blood, something that we should all do.

2. Have you ever gone to court for anything? Yes. What for? To contest a speeding ticket. Luckily I spoke to the police officer before the hearing and he agreed to drop the charges since it was my first offence. No more speeding to the Post Office during lunch for me!

3. What was the last thing you did that you previously told yourself you wouldn't do? Phone sex. I said to myself that I wouldn't do it again. But... I was alone Saturday afternoon for a few hours and surfing for porn on the Internet led to masturbation which led to needing more than just that to get off in a big way.

4. Did you ever have a summer fling while on vacation? No. When I was a kid our vacations were just day trips to Cedar Point. I went on Spring Break only once in college and we unknowingly went to Marco Island, FL, where it was mostly retired folks.

5. Have you ever done anything sexual with someone who's name you never knew? Not yet!

Bonus (as in optional): What is the best way to mend a broken heart? Go out and do something, anything, just don't sit at home and dwell on it.

Wednesday's 5K: I ran another 5K race last night. My unofficial time was 22:10 which is one of my fastest. I didn't even come close to placing in my age group as there were way too many 40-40 yr olds running. Small races = awards, large races = hmm, well, more chicks in tight running clothes to look at. I ran with the cute girl that I see at many of the local races. She was just a few steps in front of me for most of the race. I prefer running behind her - gives me something to concentrate on. I saw through her shirt that she has a small tattoo at the base of her back, and I'm not sure what it is. From a picture I saw of her from another race I think she may also have another tattoo on her upper thigh. Hmmm, I'll have to be creative to determine if she does. Not sure if "Can you pull up your shorts so I can look at your upper thighs?" would be too appropriate.

Interesting radio talk today. One of yesterday's TMI questions was about getting injured during sex. That's what they were talking about today. A few interesting stories. I'll have to download the podcast to listen to the whole show. Could one of the folks from the station be a TMI'er too?

New Fish: A neighbor is moving and they can't take their fish with them, so I'm now the proud owner of a fish tank and fish. There are three types of fish and I'm not sure what they are. I'll post a picture soon and you can help me figure them out.


Hot MILF: On my daily commute to work since May I've noticed this really hot MILF walking every morning. Not sure if she's just out walking or walking to work. She's about 5'9" or so, average build, dark hair down past her shoulders, very pretty face, and always wears Capri pants. She makes my commute something to look forward to (in addition to listening to Preston & Steve on WMMR). If I get the chance I'll take a picture and post it so we can all share in her goodness.

And now for TMI Tuesday:

1. What is the meanest thing you've ever done/said to a lover/loved one? "Mean" is a matter of perception. She probably thought that when I told her that I crossdress was the meanest thing. See #7 for what I think was the meanest thing I did.

2. Have you ever had sex on an elevator? Not yet....

3. Have you ever lied about a rash and said it was a birthmark? OR Have you ever lied about a birthmark and said it was a rash? No, but I do lie about a scar I have on the side of my chest - "Yep, it was a knife fight. You should have seen what I did to the other guy..."

4. Have you ever had sex on a beach or in the water at a beach/pool? Argh, not yet either. I'd like to do it in the pool. Not on a beach - too many places for sand to get into and grind.

5. How old are you? How old do you feel? =P I'm 40, and I feel like I'm 25. In fact, I feel better than I did at 25. I've been a runner since I was 19 and I'm in the best shape of my life. I still have clothes that I wear today that I had when I was 19.

6. Have you or your partner been injured so badly during sex that you/they had to go to the hospital? No, and that's one thing that I hope doesn't happen!

7. Have you been to a strip club or "titty bar"? (Hooters does NOT count.) If so, did you get a lap dance? Sure! Several time in several other states. Yeah, the first two times it was kind of neat, but then it was kind of like "Ewe!! Where's she been before me?!" I haven't been to one of those places in over 10 years and I don't really have plans on going to one again.

Bonus (as in optional): Have you ever had a "blog crush" (i.e., a crush on someone, of whatever gender, that you haven't met in person but only know through their blog)? Who? (Link, please, if you dare!) =P Of course, and their links are to the right. Not naming names to protect the innocent.

Yea!!! Thanks to advice from Amorous Rocker I now have better control over my blog roll. If there's anything I can do for you, Rocker, please let me know.

Today is just one of those days. It surface-of-the-sun hot out there, nice and cool in here in the A/C, and my mind is wandering ... what would be a good fantasy for this afternoon be ...

... There's a knock at my door. I quickly pull on a pair of shorts and a t-shirt and answer the door. There are two women saying they are taking a poll of people's Internet surfing habits and would like to ask a few questions if they could. The blond is a 20-ish girl wearing lime-green capri pants, a white polo shirt, and white kitten heels. The clothes are a bit tight on her curvy figure, but not too tight. The other woman is in her mid 40's, shoulder length straight black hair, white blouse, khaki skirt, and black pumps. I agree and they start asking away - a lot of 'yes/no' questions. After about five minutes I ask how much more. They say there's 100 questions, so I ask them to come in from the heat.

The ladies take a seat on the couch and I in a chair across from them. As they ask their questions I can't help but noticed their legs, shoes, and very pretty looks. Some of the questions has to do with my browser and links, and I tell them that I was on the Internet when they knocked. "It would be easier to answer your questions if we go over to the computer," I suggest, but really I just need to adjust myself as I'm getting a bit excited. We walk over to the den. I have a bench at the computer desk and recliner off to the side. The older woman sits in the recliner and the girl sits next to me. "Ooops," I say as I notice that I left a porn site up. "No problem" the woman says, "we're interested in your Internet usage, no matter the site. Can you pull up you usage history for us?" I do, and we all see that for the past two hours I've been visiting a variety of porn sites, blogs, and chat sites. The girl is busy taking notes while the woman asks questions about the sites, how long I was at each one, how did I get from one site to another, etc. The mix of the girl's perfume and perspiration scent is really arousing me. The lack of underwear under these shorts is certainly not helping hide my growing erection. The women asks me to navigate to one of the sites and then asks some questions - why that site, what is appealing about it, etc.

Well, the site is one of the porn blogs I have listed on my blog, and on it are a lot of pictures of lesbians. I tell her that the site is one of my favorites as the pictures are all very large and clear, and the selection of women on it is excellent. "What do you do when you visit this site?" she asks. "Um, well, maybe mark down 'personal solo entertainment' " I say sheepishly. The girl next to me lets out a conceited sigh. The woman has slipped out of her shoes, exposing manicured toes that I can't take my eyes off of. She repeats a question snapping me out of my stare. "I told you to enter in this address," she says and rattles it off again. I type it in and it takes me to something like a chat room. The girl then takes over, typing in a few things and hitting a few buttons on the site. "This will take a few minutes," she says. "Our system is downloading all of your bookmarks and histories. It will examine them and then make recommendations for better sites for you to look at."

While we wait, the woman gets a few things out of her purse while the girl talks to me. I can't help but look down her shirt. The woman takes my hand and cuffs it to one side of the bench, the girl grabs the other hand and does the same. "What's going on?!" I ask urgently. They, however, are busy cuffing my ankles too. "We will judge the effectiveness of the computer's suggestions by monitoring the effect the suggested sites have on you," the woman says. The girl pulls my shirt up and pulls my shorts down. "Uh, another shave one," she says rolling her eyes. On the screen pops up a new site, porno movies. The girl starts one and sits back. The movie is of two girls and a guy going at it. The action isn't too different than other things I've seen, but the clarity of the video is outstanding, as is the sound. I find myself erect again and enjoying the video. I think that I wish I could touch myself, like I see the girl next to me doing to herself. The video ends in about 5 minutes, and she starts another one up. Great action on screen, and the girl is obviously enjoying it too. This goes on for another thirty minutes. My cock is so in need of a touch. The woman tells the girl to go to the next site, more videos. Same routine, but now the girl opens her pants and lifts her shirt. The woman gives her a look of disdain. The girl says "Oh, come on! How can I sit here and do nothing?! You're just as turned on as he is."

The woman says "Well, I guess it can't hurt. He is restrained." And she then takes her skirt off. No panties - cool! "How about me?" I ask. "Well, we are seeing the desired effects. I guess it can't hurt to help you," the woman says as she lifts her feet up to my cock. I almost lose it right then, and quickly regain my composure. As we watch she slowly massages my cock and balls with her feet. "A real pro," I think to myself as she's doing things to me in ways that are really satisfying. There's a knock at the door. "Oh shit!" I say as I hear the door open. "Mandy, Karla, are you here?" a woman's voice calls. "In here," the girl responds, not even trying to cover me or her up. "Do all the guys in this neighborhood do nothing but jerk off at the computer?" the new woman asks as she looks at me. "And you two - still joining in, huh?" she laughs.

"Alright, finish up, we need to move on." The women start to re-dress, and I ask "Please??!" looking down at my throbbing cock. "You do it," the new woman says to the girl. "Do I have to? Again?" she answers. The two women stand and look at her with raised eyebrows. The girl then takes me in hand and begins pumping. She's not happy about it. "Um, there's some lube in the drawer," I suggest. "Fine!" she scoffs, gets the lube and pours it on me. She keeps pumping away. "Come on, cum already!" she says angrily. But knowing that it bothers her, I try to hold back for as long as I can. She works on me with one hand, then the other, then back to the first. I'm moaning and writhing in pleasure, but not cumming. All these years of edging are really coming in handy (pun intended). Ten minutes must have passed by now and she's still pumping. "My god," the new woman says, "Am I going to have to do it for you?" The girl says "I'm doing the best that I can. He just won't cum." and she slaps by balls. "Yes!!!" I scream out as I begin shooting streams of cum into the air, my back arched backwards. I cum hard and I cum long. I'm out of breath from my orgasm, my body shivering in pleasure....

No, I'm not dead. Overworked and underfucked - yes, dead - no. Its been a hella long and busy past few weeks so I haven't been able to post. Argh! Anyway, here's some random thoughts for today and, of course, TMI at the end.

I think I'm finally over the worst of the allergies that plagued me in May, as well as a sinus infection. I had a hard time running all of May. Sunday's run in the rain was one of the best since April.

Flickr porn is a wonderful thing. There's one person that's blocking me, and I wish there was a way for me to make amends so they will un-block me.

I'm editing my link list on the right side. Hopefully I'll have it done by the end of the week. I wish there were an easy way to do it rather than type in all that html code. I'm open to suggestions if you have any.

Mmmm, beer. Support you local microbrew or brew pub! Ask me for suggestions.

TMI Tuesday:
1. Should guys wear pink? Sure, a pink oxford shirt looks great especially if you have a tan (but not a sunburn). Pink pants, t-shirt, socks - probably not. Pink dress shorts - maybe if they have little lobsters or palm trees embroidered on them. Pink underwear - well, I do already. I kind of think of it as my little secret under my clothes.

2. Do you kiss with your eyes open or closed? Open if it is just a peck on the lips or cheek. Closed if it is more than that - closing my eyes really helps me concentrate on how it feels.

3. What is the first "non-physical" feature you tend to notice about a person you find attractive? Voice. I talk to a lot of different people on the phone throughout the day about various technical issues. I've never met most of them, and we don't talk about our personal lives, so their voice is the only thing I know about them. There are certain people who have very attractive voices, so even if I'm disagreeing with them, its tough to feel anger.

4. Have you ever showered with someone of the opposite sex? Oh yes! Showering or bathing with her is lots 'o fun!

5. Would you rather receive amazing oral sex or have amazing sex? Hmm, two different animals there. Receiving amazing oral sex is all about my pleasure. Having amazing sex is all about her pleasure. Do I really have to decide?! lol

Bonus (as in optional): If you could say anything you wanted anonymously to anyone, without identifying that person, what would you say? "Just because you thought your father should have finished off Saddam doesn't mean that you have to waste American lives and tax dollars to prove yourself to him. He would be more impressed if you accomplished something good in your life."

Argh! If you read this yesterday, I forgot to add that these are my answers to TMI Tuesday.

1. Have you ever used foods in your sexual activities (ie; whipped cream, syrup, popsicles) and how did you use them? We do like to use a chocolate body lotion from Origins and a vanilla lotion from Bath & Body Works.

2. If your SO asked you to get them off using only your toes - would you do it and how? Sure!! Being the guy that I am I would apply my toes directly to her pubic area. I know, I should start with massaging her back with my feet, then move to the erogenous zones.

3. Would you ever participate in an orgy? Have you? I haven't, and I fantasize about participating in one. However, when I think about it in a practical sense, I'm not sure it would ever happen: None of my friends seem like the orgy type, and they just don't turn me on like that. I'd have to make new "orgy friends." The assumption is then that they would like to have sex with me as much as I'd like to have sex with them. Not that I'd mind being at an orgy and just looking (and going at it solo).

4. What can a lover do to turn you on instantly? Put her feet in my lap. I love to give her a foot massage, and she really can do wonders on me with her feet.

5. Describe your favorite piece of lingerie or undergarments on yourself or your mate. (PICS PLEASE!!!) No pics of her in her lingerie, but here's a picture of me in a pair of her panties.

.

Oh, and I did promise a certain someone that I'd post a picture of my pubic hair that I haven't trimmed since February, so here's that one too.

Bonus (as in optional): Describe the best orgasm you've ever had. ;) Aren't they all good?! We've had some great orgasms together, but I think the best ones have been on my own after very long sessions of edging.
