South End restaurant gossip

Rumors suggest we can expect The Aquitaine Group’s, Cinquecento, to open to the public on Monday, November 12th.

Cinquecento has had more than its share of rumors regarding opening so its understandable to be circumspect, but I’m marking the date in my calendar.  While the restaurant will be new, much of the staff are Gaslight alum, including: Chris Robins in the kitchen and Eric Hogan and Sarah Pope on the floor.

Buona fortuna Cinquecento!

Cinquecento: 500 Harrison Ave Boston / Phone: (617) 338-9500

National Coming Out Day

This post is dedicated to the millions of men & women who cannot be true to themselves and live the life they deserve because of political and religious pressures that tell them they are wrong. 

No matter how comfortable you try to make it – it is still a closet and you deserve so much more.  To quote Dan Savage, It gets better

I’ve chosen to use today to reflect upon how my life changed after I chose to come out.  My reasons for staying in the closet were many but mostly due to a feeling of deep and abiding shame perpetuated by my religious affiliation, how I saw homosexuality portrayed on television and addressed by religious and political leaders and lastly a sense of isolation that is hard to imagine in this age.

What changed? I got fed up and the isolation I felt melted away. Not everyone’s story is as positive as mine and there are places in the world where one must remain closeted for one’s own safety.  For those men and women, I dedicate this post as a sign that hopefully the changes underway here in the US will ripple out and help kick down the closet door.  Want to read more about National Coming Out Day?  America Blog has a great article here.

Thought of the day: Uranus

Proving once again that no matter how old I get I still have the sense of humor of a 7 year old boy.

Google says Mitt Romney is Completely Wrong

Type the phrase, “completely wrong” into Google and select images. You will be treated to a nearly universal collection of everyone’s favorite flip-flopper and my former Governor, Mitt Romney.

Who am I to argue with Google?

Sean Patrick Davey

Sean Patrick Davey:  My latest obsession

Sean Patrick Davey is originally from Minneapolis but now calls NYC home.  His stats read as follows: 6’4″, red hair, hazel eyes, 204lbs. Photos of Sean regularly grace gay blogs so I figured I was overdue and should come forward to admit I’m completely obsessed with this handsome Midwesterner.

If you too find yourself smitten there is a blog you’ll love >> link here.

Lesson of the day

Sometimes things can seem far more scary than they really are.

Photo of the day: Golden Penises

Hard to imagine what is going on here. Perhaps Scott – blogger from Bill in Exile needed some accent decor for his new nightclub in Seattle, Q Nightclub. Then again, perhaps not, from the photos he’s posted, it seems like the club already has enough of the real thing.

Houseguests Miro and Kiril

One week ago today we said goodbye to Miro and Kiril (brothers from Varna, Bulgaria).  They boarded their flight from Boston to head home after spending the previous 3+ months working this summer in Provincetown. It was great to host them for a few days after a long summer of hard work.  Both Miro and Kiril relaxed and talked a lot about their home, Varna, Bulgaria, which looks beautiful in pictures.

Varna BulgariaMiro and Kiril’s home is on the coast of the Black Sea and is one of the largest cities in this European Country.  If you Google “Varna” you will no doubt see beautiful photos of the coast which looks like a great place to visit in the warmer months.  I have to admit prior to meeting these brothers, I never really thought about visiting Bulgaria, but maybe some day I’ll have to go and visit this city on the Black Sea.

Best of luck to Miro and Kiril who are now home studying at University. I hope we get a chance to see them again next summer in Ptown.

Whatcha readin’?

gay literature blogI love to read and on most evenings, I end up reading at least a few pages in bed before falling asleep.  The past few books I’ve read have been disappointing so I’ve refrained from providing a book review post.

Hopefully that will change as I’m currently reading a humorous book that a friend dropped off late last month. In the interim if you are looking for a few suggestions on what to read check out this blog, which I stumbled upon this past weekend called, Speak Its Name.

If you forget to bookmark this site, no worries as I have it now posted in my blogroll of blogs over there
