Truthfully, I prefer showers, but whatever your bathing rituals are before you go out with your buddies is your business.
Have a great Saturday night.
It is chilly here in Boston so hopefully this photo will help warm you up.
Stew was my first trainer at Boston Sports Club in the South End. He was the one who initially encouraged me to take my personal fitness more seriously. These pictures of Stew make me wish more black men didn’t shave their chests.

At some point on Saturday my blog clocked more views in 2013 than I had accumulated in all of 2012. I’m not sure how precise the WordPress site stats are, but I do use them as a benchmark.
Site traffic to my blog has really grown significantly over the past two years, and I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who stops by here on occasion. I appreciate it.
CONGRATULATIONS NEW JERSEY!
Despite the efforts of New Jersey’s Republican Governor, Chris Christie, to block same sex marriages, that state’s Supreme Court ruled against the administration. The ruling means that NJ can start recognizing and performing same sex marriages today.
I’d like to welcome New Jersey to the 21st Century and congratulate the efforts of Garden State Equality and others who worked to make this possible. New Jersey becomes the 14th state (plus Washington D.C.) to legalize same sex marriage. It also means that the entire Northeast region of the United States now recognize gay marriage.
Earlier this month it was announced that Paris had beat out a handful of other cities to host the 2018 Gay Games. I’ve never attended the Gay Games, but I love Paris and will use any excuse to write about this city.
No slight intended but this seems like a much cooler host city than the upcoming Gay Games to be hosted in Cleveland and Akron, Ohio the summer of 2014.
Are you planning to head to Salem, MA to celebrate Halloween? Go Out Loud is hosting a party at the Hawthorne Hotel. RuPaul’s Drag Race winner SHARON NEEDLES will be there and KISS 108’s DJ Gay Jim will be playing great music. More information is available on their Facebook page, Go Out Loud.
Perhaps these guys are lacking sufficient scruff, but I thought it was true to the theme of the lazy day posts I’ve come to post each Sunday morning. Have a great Sunday.

Some of you may recognize Jeffery as one of Ptown’s premiere entertainers. I want to thank him for sharing such sexy photos. Ginger lovers are sure to swoon for this week’s Furry Friday.

Something tells me he might not be the brightest bulb on a Christmas tree but he sure is easy to look at. Perhaps one of you might be willing to explain to him how one sits on a bench.
Tomorrow is Spirit Day. The day started in 2010 as a way to stand up against bullying and for people to show their support for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) youth. All are encouraged to wear purple; the color in the rainbow flag that symbolizes ‘spirit’.
You can learn more about the event by linking to GLAAD’s website, www.glaad.org/spiritday.
Rumors of Fritz’s closing was first whispered to me early this summer, but I paid it little attention. It seemed strange that such a successful bar would close, but as the rumors persisted it became obvious that there was more truth than fiction and this wasn’t just neighborhood gossip.
Earlier this month Fritz confirmed on Facebook that they are closing at the end of this year. The owner of the Chandler Inn is remodeling the space to turn it into a restaurant and bar and make it more welcoming to the entire neighborhood (cue the bugle to play taps as yet another gay bar bites the dust).
Fritz is my favorite place in Boston to watch a game and even though I’m always a fan of seeing new restaurant open, I’m torn and left with a bitter taste by its closure. I’ll miss Fritz. What are your thoughts?
