Reply to Living with HIV in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Even if being gay is "wrong" Phoenix is right, even the "best" person could be stricken with HIV tommorow, or run over by a bus. AIDS is NOT a gay disease, typing in all caps is obnoxious to those who are reading, so is being a self righteous know-it-all, and being gay is not a "sin" or inherently evil or dangerous lifestyle. This was an awesome, honest, heart breaking post. Marvin needs to pull his own plank out and leave normal, thoughtf

Reply to On My Knees - Sucking Cock or Seeking God in Religion JoeUser Forums

Wow. I'm not quite sure what to say to your blog because it was thoughtful, well-written, pignantly shocking, really good. In one sense I can't agree with your position but in another I can definately admire it as well. BTW, Marvin is a complete bastard and moron. I hate him every time he comes around my site too. Maybe someone should drop him the message that if you're trying to put somebody down, especially in print, spell/grammar checker might

I suppose I shouldn't be deliberately antagonistic on somebody else's blog. Oh and by the way, I'm not particularly fond of Kerry but ANYBODY'S better than Bush!!!!

Reply to Reasons For choices of Greatest Authors of ALL time in Misc JoeUser Forums

Interesting choices...interesting in how many wouldn't be on my list...hahahah, j/k. Actually though, I like to see anybody writing about authors and writing. I agree with you on Dante and Salinger, "Franny and Zooey," fucking amazing and funny, and even Steinbeck. I have, sadly enough, not managed to get through any Tolstoi, Kafka or Faulkner. Tolstoi's the only one I'm sorry about though because I have every intention of reading

Reply to Blaming the victims of terrorists in Current Events JoeUser Forums

Interesting. I didn't read the first article and probably would have responded to it if I had, hopefully with something more like what you were looking for. For my part, I absolutely do not think American's "deserved" to die at the hands of terrorists on September 11th or at any other time. I also, however, don't think innocent Iraqui's, Afghani's, Cubans or whoever else deserve to die at the hands of Americans. The whole torture mess has brough an

Reply to Losing Your Virginity in Personal Relationships JoeUser Forums

I can't say the first time was spectacular, (nobody's ever is, especially if you're a girl,) but it was with someone I cared about and that made a difference. Unfortunately, right about the time I started to feel anything good he was finished. (Yeah, we were 18.) So I agree with the above people, practice makes perfect, as well as, lube and knowing yourself, boy or girl, will also help. And there's no right or wrong age. The right ag

Reply to We All Do It, Don't We? in International JoeUser Forums

Very nicely done, good points. And a nice nudge to writer's to make sure they're not doing this. Cripes! I'm going to have to go look back on my own stuff now because I'm sure I do this. It's nice to see self awareness, honesty and growth in a writer and a person. Now to a political bent I want to quote the film "Cold Mountain" because I think it applies to this war, and maybe all wars started by humans. "They call this war a storm over t

A Stolen Moment in Art JoeUser Forums

AStolen Moment The Lizard King lies down with the Butterfly Girl And the stormheads gather in the distance. Two poet hearts striving for understanding and ecstasy, One with a soul like a starry mystic The other’s like a box of unanswered questions. They strive together on desert sands with cactai as witness’ and vultures circling overhead,

I dunno in Art JoeUser Forums

Is prose poetry acceptable on anti-prose? ;) Just a little thing I wrote yesterday... Permanent pricking of tears at the back of my eyes makes me feel like a dutch boy, sticking my finger in the dyke to keep the ocean from pouring in. Or out, as it were in this case, either way I’ve things to do, places to see, people to be. I don’t have time for emotional

Reply to Nourishment in Art JoeUser Forums

I liked this, especially the way it gets more raw and more intense as the realization of need gets stronger. It almost reads like rap, except I generally hate rap but if rap was like this it might be good. ;) On a purely mercenary note....thanks for wanting to get the other person off as part of your pleasure. I'm assuming you're a guy and as a girl I think that's pretty cool. ;) Either way it's cool I guess.

I love people who have absolutely nothing intelligent, interesting or helpful to say but who speak anyway.

I really like this, the idea of it, and it generally works well. You might consider dropping the last line...I think it would sound good just ending with, "walking in circles." Good work!

There's a Ghost in My Jeans in Art JoeUser Forums

There’s a ghost in my jeans, Tickl-ing, Tickl-ing Whilst flesh is in my hand, and my heart, The kind that makes lips part The kind for whom I breathe and seethe. I dream, of a world unhaunted, love undaunted, by that which has gone before, with a seductive whisper-”whore.” Mouth never open enough to please, such a t

Reply to Listening to the arguments on gay marriage in Personal Relationships JoeUser Forums

As an advocate for gay marriage I really liked your post. Your ideas are thoughtful and intelligent, your arguments are rational and not based on emotion or religion. However...of course the majority has rights too, rights that should be respected and protected. But giving homosexuals equal rights does not take away from the rights of anyone! Denying them the right to marriage does.

Modern Art 2 in Art JoeUser Forums

Christ on Crutches! Does anyone even read what I write? Did I imply, in some cute, naive, pretty little way, that there used to be some vague artistic utopia way back when that is now crumbled and gone? No, and there's a very good reason why I didn't even mention Rembrandt when I was mentioning great Art because he was as big a sell out as any Britney Spears, and took credit for work his pupils did. Nor did I mention Jeanette Winterson amongst the cruel non-Artists of the modern world becaus

Modern Art: Fact or Fiction? in Art JoeUser Forums

Is Art become obsolete in our culture? Has it been mass marketed and critiqued into safe little corners? Has it been squelched into submission under the impressive weight of what has Gone Before? How can Art escape the suffocation of a culture that puts protesters into "free-speech" zones, and give the label of highest artist to he or she who makes the most money? As we move more and more into a techonological age musicians and film actors lose their artistic cred but writers and visual arti
