"If you blog it, they will come."

• Mr. Indie Rockstar Palochi started a Tribe for Gay Bloggers and the people who love them and boy oh boy did it catch on! Email after email of Tribe invitations flood my inbox. Discussion threads start and go on and on until they have reached their maximum "depth". It's become quite a little community.
  
• So, if you want to join the party, please do. The more the merrier. Or is it the more the Mary-er?


• Speaking of Mr. Indie Rockstar Palochi, he is also quite the writer. Do yourself a favor and check out his fiction blog "The Dawn of the American Expatriate". Of course, it is helpful if you start with the first post and work your way up. It's riveting and like all good writers, it gives you just a taste of what's coming next to leave you wanting more. Hats off to you Mr. Indie Rockstar Palochi. (I'm thinking that could be your new moniker ala Famous Author Rob Byrnes.)

What else is going on in the blog universe?

• Today is young Samuel's birthday. Wish him well.


• Mark posted his pictures from the big GB:NY thingy. He is ridiculously photogenic and for that, he must be hated. Too bad he's such a sweetheart that he makes you forget to hate him.


• Patrick recalls a harrowing, yet extremely funny tale of a first date from hell.


• I have been faithfully reading about Jeff and Mike's adventures during The Great Sitting. There are even t-shirts available. How cool that proceeds go to support the Lance Armstrong Foundation? That is just the kind of guys they are.


• David made Liz and honest woman. Congratulations you crazy kids.


• Gregg has started blogging again. You have been missed Gregg.


• Ryan got a job despite hanging out at the pool all day. Enjoy your weekend in Phoenix Ryan. The weather will be nice, hot and icky just for you.


• And finally, just go check out Hot Toddy and say hi, just so he doesn't feel left out.
