Each Friday morning I post a riddle to get you to think outside the box and exercise your brain. If you are stumped, share it with a friend or colleague and see if you can figure out the answer together.
I know that I’ve shared a variation of this riddle previously but for those who may not have seen it, I’m confident you’ll figure this out – just think about it for a minute then leave your answer in the comment section. I’ll approve responses later in the day to give people a chance to respond without seeing any spoilers.
This week’s brain teaser: A doctor and a boy were fishing. The boy was the doctor’s son, but the doctor was not the boy’s father. Who was the doctor?

These two certainly make for a handsome couple. I love how the guy on the right rests his chin on the shoulder of the other man. One reason I like these posts is I love to make up stories in my head about who the people are or imagine what they might be thinking when they are being photographed. In this case, I can’t help but think they look so happy and relaxed together in the photo. Anyone care to guess when this may have been taken? I’m at a loss.
I dedicate this weekly post, featuring vintage gay photographs, to the men and women who lived in a more critical time where being true to yourself and loving who you want wasn’t always an option and came at a great price. Do you have a photo you would like to share? Email me at bosguymail@gmail.com.
I think I may have shared this photo previously, but I opted to post it because it made me laugh when I saw it. Hopefully the caption I’ve shared below inspires you to offer up one of your own in the comment section.
ManRay owner, Don Holland, says this time ManRay will really reopen
ManRay (on gay nights Campus) was a popular fetish bar that operated near Central Square from 1985 – 2005. It closed fifteen years ago to make way for condominiums, but last week the local newspaper, Cambridge Day, reported that the popular nightclub appears poised to reopen – not far from the club’s original location. The newspaper reported that ManRay owner, Don Holland, was awarded a liquor license by Cambridge and a 2:00AM closing time for 40 Prospect Street. The space was previously used by Improv Boston but has been empty since they vacated in November 2020.
This is not the first time rumors have swirled about a reopening of this popular bar. Back in 2013 I wrote about how the bar would reopen later in the summer, but that never happened. This time, the space seems to be a better fit and the paperwork with the city of Cambridge appears to be in order. The only question on my mind is if the much loved club reopens, will Campus (gay nights) also return.
Stay tuned. I’l let you know when there is more to share.
