  1. Very nice! Please send #3 or #4 over at your convenience. Thanks. I snagged a nice bubble butt off the internet and thought I would share with the group at an appropriate time. Now seems good, not to steal your thunder. But can one ever have too many? It turns out there is a interesting aside to this bubble butt. When I opened it to full size after downloading, I realized that I knew this butt. I actually hired this guy some years ago in Philly at Premium. I forget his name now but I do recall him quite vividly. I could go into detail as if it were yesterday but I won't bore all. He was a hot little bottom. He later moved on to Ft Lauderdale I believe and did some twink vids as well as escorting.
  2. I've been giving this a little more thought over the last couple of days. I am no attorney, never even played one on TV; so this is strictly armchair stuff. Nevertheless, I never let lack of qualification stop me from musing. Assuming that this goes to the SCOTUS and assuming they do not wish to take on the number of strong arguments in the Prop 8 overturn (because of that vascillating 5th vote), some of which would seem to appply to this case too, I postulated an overturn by the Conservative Justices based on the Commander-in-Chief Article 2 clause. There is an interesting consequence or two should this come to pass. The ruling would hinge on the Commander-in-Chief having the necessary powers to field a coherent force, in good order, to constitute a national military. If that were to prevail, the consequence it seems to me is to deny Constitional grounds that Congress can set the law for who can and cannot serve in the Military Forces. That Congressional perogative was codified in the DADT law to which Clinton aceeded. Reserving that power to the Executive reverts law back to the time of Truman where the Executive determines the issue. Thus the outcome would depend on who is President when this decision comes down, should this scenario come to pass, of course. Now it seems to me that this would have to be fast-tracked to the SCOTUS should the lower court decision stand, else the army would become defacto integrated with open gays ( heaven forbid). As time passed with that circumstance, the opposing arguments would be weakened further as experience would indicate there was not adverse effect. Thus it should reach SCOTUS during the Obama adminstration. The outcome should be clear cut, one would think. Another facet to consider is whether the Obama Adminstration would choose to appeal the lower court decision - a very sticky issue for them. To appeal an outcome they seek -- repeal of DADT -- on the grounds that it is the duty of the Executive to defend the laws of the country, or to turn a blind eye. It does not seem to me that Congress has the power to appeal this as they cannot force the Executive to act and it is the purview of the Executive as laid out by the Consitution. I don't see any special prosecutorial powers that Congress now possesses or could pass, that would survive Executive veto even if they could muster the votes to pass in Congress. According to my limited perspective, either Congress makes this case moot by repealing DADT soon or it ultimately falls in Obama's lap after SCOTUS gets a wack at it somehow. I'd love to know how Constitution scholar Barack Obama views this legal question.

    I really lusted after Richie in my relative youth. Well, let's say I was younger than now.
  4. Guys, you need to get a room based on apparent personal chemistry. Or maybe, if the personal chmistry observation is in error then why invest energy in a relationship going nowhere? Better to keep private issues private business.
  5. I mentioned in another thread that while there may be no copyright notice attached, that a studio/model retains implicit copyright and could, if they wished, move to enforce it. It is not clear if they would but they could. This is somewhat of a grey area for us. The fact that a notice was not affixed presumably means the studio probably has a more relaxed attitude about the product. Maybe they see it as an advertising strategy. Nevertheless, if they felt abused they could take action. This is in contrast to third party sites that collect and display photos. They have no enforceable copyright interest unless it has been legally assigned to them. That is usually NOT the case on the internet. We respect studios that produce a business product and we do not wish to harm their business interest. Thus we walk a fine line. What may be unobjectionable on a onesy - twosey basis for studio material could be abused unintentionally by unknowing posters. My purpose in remarking is to help inform the contributors of the business issues at play so we don't run afoul of these studios. As always explicit copyright media is always to be avoided. That is a clear statement that they object to sharing their product.
  6. I'm flippin over #4.
  7. You are forgiven.
  8. Jeeze, I can see why you choose him! I've cricle my favs too. The BelAmi boys are just the hottest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for posting. (For members wondering about copyright issues, we have an affiliation agreement with BelAmi, thus the site has standing permission.)
  9. (I could have edited out the photo in this response but why would anybody want that? )
  10. Me too.
  11. Just because you changed threads doesn't mean he gets out of being my bitch. You can run but you cannot hide... certainly not with him. .
  12. My point was it will be less productive.
  13. Quite some hobby.
  14. Please pass along to the guy that I own a camera too.
  15. I'm not much for soccer but an afternoon with him might change my mind.
  16. That'a ok. You more than compensated with a double shot of edilson.
  17. The shit is going to hit the court dockets now. No way this SCOTUS buys in to that ruling. Look for an Article I Section 2 'Commander In Chief' Constitutional exclusion. This ruling may be moot if Congress acts to repeal DADT before the end of the year. Otherwise, do not look for much in the way of 'progressive' legislative accomplishments in the next Congress.
  18. Piss on photobucket.
  19. I was going to give you the hot stud on the right.
  20. Can I make him my bitch for the afternoon?
  21. This thread gets the 'Most Inane Thread of the Year' Award
