Just a Swangin'

I have found that MySpace really has a varied audience of users. There are people like me just looking for ordinary everyday "joeshmoes" to network with and then there are the "freaky deakies". The "Freaky Deakies" are the sluts and hoes of the MySpace realm. They're the ones who have Japanese sex anime characters for their pics. You know the people I'm talking about, don't you? I'd say that if you stay on MySpace long enough, one of these "freaky deakies" (abbreviated FD) will contact you with a friend request. I was contacted with such a request recently. A woman sent me a request for "swingin partners". Has anyone else received such a request?
I always wonder that, in the world of swingin and swappin', if it is required that you be ugly, chubby, and dentally challenged to be in the club. The woman that sent me the request had a screen name of "cum" (not kidding folks). She has her main pic as a pic of her saggy, National Geographic boobs. You can't see her face. She has very strict hygene requirements for what she terms as "the cha cha". Just a hint to anyone thinking of putting a swingin' MySpace page out there....if the sexist thing about your breasts is your belly button between them, consider taking a pic of something else. Long saggy, tube sock looking boobs ARE NOT PICTURE WORTHY Ladies!!! After looking at this MySpace page, I felt like I needed to be hosed down with germicidial cleanser. I'm in a manogamous relationship now and wouldn't dream of "swappin" for any reason. But even if I was the swingin' kind, I would probably join a convent after viewing this MySpace page.
Why do people do this stuff anyway? Are there really that many FDs out there?

It's Hard Not to be Sexy When Holding An Ancient Dagger

I was waiting in line at Blockbuster today. (Having no life, I often find myself waiting in line at Blockbuster.) I noticed that Blockbuster was really pushing their TV Boxed DVD Series Sets. I guess they must be really big money makers at Christmas time. Among the Boxed Sets was "Buffy the Vampire Slayer". Now, I'm not afraid to admit that, at 37yrs old, I'm a big Buffy fan. My sister, who lives around Cape Fear North Carolina would call me after her kids went to sleep and we would discuss the latest Buffy episode before it all was cancelled a few years ago.

One thing I noticed about the picture on the DVD set was that there were two prominent features to the pic. Buffy was all boobs and all ancient dagger. This leads me to wonder if men don't have some of the "bad girl" fantasies like women have "bad boy" fantasies. You know, women seem to fall for the guy who is "wild" and untamed. He's the one who always leaves the girl pregnant and heartbroken as he goes to "find himself"....probably with another women. Well, I think men suffer from the same thing, just a wee bit lighter version. Men like women who are dangerous because it's sexy as hell. What's not to like about a women with big knockers, leather pants, and an ancient dagger with which she alone must slay something with?

Of course, she's never really available and must always leave but....the sex would be good.
Just like my own Wolverine fantasy (yes, I think his harder-than-steel body complete with retractable claws is sexy) all fantasies, whether men or women are always just out of our reach. We're all made to believe that someone ultra sexy and exciting is just around the corner. Oh yeah, and they are looking for us too.... It keeps us unavailable to the girl or guy next door. We spend our whole life looking for something made up because the real thing is just too boring. Wolverine and Buffy never have bad breath, gas, pimples, or anything unattractive like a real person would. They don't get fat when the kids come along or forget our birthdays. Oh, and I know Wolverine would send me 3 dozen roses at work just to tell me he was thinking about me...sorry, I digress. :)

As Time Goes By....

It has been nearly two months since my last post. Whew, has my life been busy!! I've been working harder than ever, trying to get the endless stream of moving boxes emptied into my new abyss of a house, and I've begun a new relationship. So far the new house and the guy are both working out. I'll keep my fingers crossed for both of them.

Another important thing has happened just in the last few weeks, the groundswell of opposition to the Republican Neo-Con regime and it's eventual overthrow. That's right, as far as I'm concerned, this last midterm election can not be considered anything less than an overthrow of government. It was a bloodless, less messy overthrow than most, but an overthrow none the less. As I watched the election returns, I remember thinking how this felt very much like a presidential election instead of a midterm election. In many ways, this election was just as important as any presidential election. One thing is for certain, George Bush hasn't got nearly the all encompassing power he had only a few weeks ago. He is now just a guy with the power of veto. The reign of King George is no more.

I hope that now that the Country has "gone blue", that the blue leadership knows how to fix things. We all have to admit it's a mess out there. This very thorough fuck up will not be fixed with a few passed bills and some press conferences. This is big. This fix will have to have long term commitment and lots of resources.

My prayer is that our noble men and women in uniform can come home. Their lives are far too precious to be lost in nafarious causes. They aren't keeping Americans free as much as they are keeping the oil barrons rich.

Lastly, I would love to see George Bush put on trial for war crimes the same as Saddam Hussein. Abu Ghraib and the massacre at a small Iraqi town by soldiers show the careless way in which this war was executed. George Bush should be made accountable for his one man crusade to invade this tiny country that was never a threat to us. He should know no less punishment than the other terrorists. At the very least, he should be impeached.
