A lot of you don’t know, but I’m one of the co-moderators of BearsLycraSpeedos, a group dedicated to exploring the fetish of bearish men in Speedos, Lycra clothing, singlets, wrestling, et cetera. I found these nylon/lycra boxer briefs at Target, and have been sharing a few pics of them, in their five colors that I ...Read more.

Jesus Prayer

Posted by Paul Brown | Filed under Uncategorized | Sep 29, 2005 | Tags: , | Comments Off

The Jesus Prayer is a useful meditation tool: Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner. It’s a mantra that one repeats. In the Orthodox monastic tradition, a prayer rope is used to engage the hands while the prayer is repeated. The prayer rope is a knotted loop of yarn tied ...Read more.

I installed the new hard drive yesterday, and kept the old one on the secondary disk controller, instead of putting the CD burner back in. But, I realize that that was a mistake, as that old drive is bloody LOUD! I can’t believe how incredibly loud it is… I had thought that maybe it was ...Read more.

New Hard Drive

I bought a 200GB Maxtor hard drive at Fry’s Monday on sale. I just finished installing it. The installation software that came with it moved all of my old C drive’s stuff completely over, and now it boots as C:, the old C is D, and the old E is still E. Fabulous! OK, I ...Read more.

On Monday, John and I drove down to Palo Alto to go to Fry’s so John could return the external hard drive with the annoying LEDs all over it. On our way to Fry’s, we stopped for lunch at Thai Garden, located on the border between Palo Alto and Los Altos on El Camino Real. ...Read more.

Why Celibacy?

Posted by Paul Brown | Filed under Uncategorized | Sep 26, 2005 | Tags: | Comments Off

I suppose I should offer some explanation for my decision to seek celibacy right now. Since Bob and I broke up in April, I have had to do some serious regrouping, have been meeting men, going out and trying to make new friends, work on my practice. There’s barely been any time to do any ...Read more.

Celibacy

So, after yet another disappointing weekend of having men who say they care for me flake on me, I’ve decided that it’s time to have a period of celibacy. I need to get my head clear of men and romance, and focus my energies on my massage practice. Please pray for me, to whatever deity ...Read more.

Folsom Street Fair

After I shot my load of cum down that cute cub’s throat at the corner of 9th and Folsom, I was strapped to a St. Andrew’s Cross and had the snot flogged outta me. Albadger, John, and I went to Flipper’s for lunch, and then Albadger and I went to the matinee performance of Handel’s ...Read more.

After Friday night’s all-night sex fest (ok, ok, next time someone says they want to fuck all night, I’ll believe him!), I didn’t get any real sleep until about 11:00 Saturday morning, sleeping largely until 18:00, when I had to get up and start getting ready for my 19:00 massage client. Said client was in ...Read more.

Instant Popularity!

Went and saw Hellbent with the SF Moviebears last night at the Lumiére. It’s a funny, campy lighthearted romp through the teen slasher movie with a gay twist. It struck a few clunkers, but mostly got the jokes just right, and the gore scenes are both silly and gross! Thanks, dhbearguy for organizing it. From ...Read more.
