Horsing Around in the Attic

After a dinner topped with birthday cake (and lots of frosting) the twins needed to let off some steam and sugar energy. We hopped up to the attic and they had the literal run of the place, bounding from end to end, pretending that portions of the floor were lava, and jumping from soft-cushioned chair to chair. At times like this, I am reminded that the most important part of childhood to cultivate is the imagination. If you can refine yours, you can do anything. It’s why I rarely get bored or restless: my head can take me to places my feet could never manage. I hope these kids have the same freedom, and that they don’t fall prey to television or the internet to lazily fill their head with half-baked entertainment. Based on their elaborate lava game, they’re off to a good start. (I’m not sure what part the elephant played in the scene, but I went with it and rode it safely to shore.)

More Twin Mayhem

It’s difficult to get one four-year-old to sit still, but when you have two, it’s almost impossible. Thankfully a little bribing with an additional birthday present worked wonders, and I managed to get these shots. (Uncles can do the bribing thing. They may not respect me for it later, but they can take a number and join the line.)

After their birthday dinner we had some additional fun in the living room. It’s always more fun to exit the adult table early and squeeze out a few more hours of play before bedtime. I remember that from my stint as a four-year-old. Some things get passed on from generation to generation.

When 2 Become 4

A short time ago we celebrated the fourth birthdays of my niece and nephew ~ Emi and Noah. Here are some shots from that fun family weekend. They speak more eloquently than anything I could muster, and the twins are already developing voices of their own. (Talk to the hand.)

The Return of the Ilagan Twins

Switching from the salacious to the sweet, soon we herald a couple of posts returning the Ilagan twins to the fold, with a recap of their fourth birthday celebration. For now though, a hint of that, in the toys of childhood ~ colorful, innocent, and fresh as the break of dawn. Come back in a day or two when we resume the usual adult content.

Until then, welcome to the dollhouse.

The Friendly Skies

It’s easy to get lost in the airport. Not physically lost, but emotionally. Surrounded by strangers, and people from far and near, it’s simple to drop your identity and pick up another, if only for a layover. It’s one of the reasons I love the airport. It gets tiring being me sometimes. You have the luxury of clicking away if things get dull or annoying or bothersome. You have the choice not to see me at all. I don’t have such an escape.

But in an airport I can pretend I’m someone else. Not seriously, and not forever, but when I need to get away before or after getting away, it’s a nice feeling. Pretending to be lost is better than actually losing yourself. Safer too. And if that’s what it takes to return to the world that I know, if that’s what it takes to survive, then let me be lost at the airport. Await my arrival.

Those Shirtless Zac Efron GIFs

When Zac Efron accepted his MTV Movie Award for ‘Best Shirtless Performance’ or something, he made good on a promise to do so shirtless. Personally, I think he should have done it pants-less, but beggars can’t be choosers. Besides, that’s what this naked Zac Efron post is for. This stunt is a blatant pandering to have his own sub-category, like Tom Daley, Ben Cohen, or David Beckham, but Mr. Efron is going to have to do a lot more in his underwear before that honor gets bestowed.

Racing Through A Racy Recap

While I’ve been gone, there have been more than a few skin-heavy posts, glorifying gratuitous male nudity, and putting naked male celebrities upon a posterior-posing pedestal, which means this recap is going to be more than a little racy.  April is, however, one of the racier months, speeding by as it removes the last vestiges of the most stubborn winter. Until the heat is here to stay, we’ll rub some sticks and dicks together and make our own warmth. Onto the hotties…

The “Great Naked Male Celebrity” post has been done to death, right here on this site, but never with this amount of GIFs and a bonus video.

A recap within this recap (as is the tendency when I’m away) is doubly represented by The Words and The Photos.

Another double-dose of sexiness was on full display with a pair of posts: The Bulge Report – with its healthy recollection of some notable male package action, and The Butt Report – with its coming-from-behind posterior power.

If it was my butt you were after, one of my favorite artists captured it here.

The Hunk of the Day feature was in full daily effect, populated by the sexy clothes-shedding likes of Andrew Morrill, Joshua Michael Brickman, Todd Hanebrink, James Clement, James Maslow, Drew Pare, and Jason Taulb.

The Butt Report

Since we just featured The Bulge Report, it seems only fair to give a shake to the other end of the action. Here’s a collection of the backsides that have brought such joy to some of you over the years. While there’s a bit of a full-frontal male nudity embargo on this site, the butt has always been all access, all the time. Rear entry has never been denied in these parts…

The posterior of aptly-named Stuart Reardon may be one of the hottest to burn up this site’s stats, so get clicking.

Male model David Gandy provided ample eye candy when he turned around to bump and grind it.

It’s a tossed-salad-toss-up as to which side of Benjamin Godfre is better – the back or the front – so you can decide for yourself..

Todd Sanfield may have a stunning underwear line, but he’s better when baring his backside sans underwear altogether.

Dan Savage’s better half, Terry Miller, may try keeping his booty in a Speedo, but it just barely fits.

The amazing ass of Scott Herman is quite a sight to behold.

Dan Osborne’s been featured here for his bulge, but he’s got an equally-admirable booty, as seen here.

And last but most certainly not least, Harry Judd proved his butt has remained in perfect shape since he first bared it a few years ago.

PS – Who’s going to start a campaign to get David Beckham to show his tush?

Reading the Palms

Today is Palm Sunday, one week before Easter. This was one of the more interesting Catholic days, whereby we received a few palm fronds while the Priest sprayed the congregation with Holy Water. Kids tend to covet things, and my brother and I were no different, so we loved getting the stringy palm leaves, tinged just slightly with green – proof that they were once a part of something that was alive. We held them up as the Priest came around blessing them and throwing a few drops of Holy Water about. That sort of thing was more interesting to us than any drawn-out homily or communion-hand-out.

The Bulge Report

The battle of the bulge means something different on this site, when a bulge is something that is celebrated. Far more than a blatant full-frontal dick pic, a subtly-covered bulge offers the erotic power of the imagination – the sexiest part of the human experience. Therefore, the male bulge has received more than its fair share of exposure here, from revealing VPL (Visible Penis Line) shots to even more revealing wet-underwear pics that leave almost nothing to said imagination.

One of the first bulges to ever be featured here quite fittingly belongs to David Beckham. He has a penchant for almost bursting out of his briefs, as in this quick-change scene on the field. Even when his bulge gets a bit boring, like pizza, it’s still pretty good.

Some bulges are best when they go head-to-head, as was the case in this post pitting Cristiano Ronaldo’s junk against what Rafael Nadal had in his pants. Similar fireworks exploded when David Beckham thrust his stuff against Ben Cohen or when Mr. Beckham had a go at Mario Lopez.

Male models can always be counted on to display their wares, putting bulges front and center in such prominent promenades  by Tyler Lough, Lance Parker, Choi Ho Jin, Chris Fawcett, and Justin Deeley, who parlayed his bulge into an acting career.

The Speedo – or Budgie Smuggler for those Down Under – has long been the seminal item for showing off the bulge. Tom Daley was first featured in nothing but his Speedo in this post, surpassing Michael Phelps in his Speedo,  and who knew what he would become to this site. Both his bulge and his butt – and you could debate the merits of each for hours. Matthew Mitcham would likely agree, though he has his own magic to work.

Even more revealing than the Speedo, however, is a pair of tight briefs or, better yet, a jockstrap, as exemplified by such studs as Colby Melvin in his Andrew Christian finest, the bursting Calvin Klein briefs of Ngo Okafor, or these almost-obscene wet underwear shots of Sandor Earl. And it’s hard to beat what Jack Mackenroth has packing in his sexy underwear.

Finally, the very first bulge post of Dan Osborne now seems almost nostalgic since he’s been in so many posts since then. I’ll let you seek them out – I’m spent.

In the Annals of the Archives

Though this site has been in existence since 2003 (not many personal websites can boast that claim) I didn’t bother archiving much until a few years ago. Prior to that I’d simply re-boot and start fresh every year. Yes, some good things were lost in the process – mostly in the in-between moments that seem insignificant at the time, but whose meaning can only be gleaned in hindsight. Subtle patterns of evolution, small signposts of the way things would go ~ such are the jewels along the journey of life. A small part of me mourns that loss, but most of me is glad to be rid of the past. More people need to learn to let go like that.

For the past couple of years, however, we’ve had the Archives – the little box that can be found when you scroll down to the bottom right of this page. If you click on that it will bring you to the month and year of your choosing (all the way back to a few posts from 2010). You can find the events of May 2010 – the month of my wedding to Andy, the Provincetown fun of August 2012, the chill of this past December, and the mystical moments of March 2011.

There was this rather schizophrenic spattering of posts from February 2013, the Madonna-centric meanderings in September 2010, the sultry summer studs that populate July of 2013, and the mixed bag of spring tricks from April 2012.

Once you reach a certain point in the past, you can keep clicking on the ‘Older Entries’ link at the bottom of each page to go back post by post – though I don’t recommend that. It’s difficult enough to look ahead, much more so when trying to look back at the same time.

A Wedding Orchid

This miraculously fail-proof Phalaenopsis orchid, a wedding gift from 2010, resides at my parents’ house. Every few months since we received it, it sends up another small spray of blooms as seen here. A nice reminder of a happy time, and as beautiful now as it was then.

Picture This, And Then Some

A close-second to The Writings, as far as my fickle interests go, are The Pictures. In some ways, they have taken over this site, as almost every post features some sort of photo to go along with it, whether it be Shirtless hunks or iconic Madonna poses or simple flower and gardening shots. Of course, there are more shameless photo albums, like of me in my underwear, or high-brow black-and-white collections (me in my underwear with an artistic slant).

There are also albums of favorite places I’ve been, like London, Boston, Ogunquit, Provincetown, Washington, Cape Cod, San Francisco, and some not-so-favorite places like Las Vegas.

Finally, there are the seasons – those natural markers that signify the passage of a year, the ticking of time. The freshness and hope of spring, the glory and celebration of summer, the ripe fullness of fall, and the woeful slumber of winter ~ each grand and gorgeous in its own right, each possessing a particular pulchritude.

One day I’ll get around to updating these galleries, but that day is not today, so you have some time to peruse them at your leisure.

The Great Naked Male Celebrity Post

One of the more popular categories of this site is the ‘Naked Male Celebrities’ section. It’s pretty self-explanatory: photos of nude male celebrities. Not so heavy on the full-frontal scenes (despite what Amtrak may think of the NSFW nature of this site) we do feature ample ass for those who like the butt. Nude male celebrities will always garner a bit more attention than, say, non-nude male celebs. So feast your eyes upon those who have deigned to drop trou for this site.

We begin with a blast from the archived past: Ryan Reynolds. He showed off a perky rear-end in his younger years, before he got all Green Lantern on us. He should definitely put some new work out there.

Self-proclaimed gay A-lister Reichen Lehmkuhl put his shelf on display in several shower shots, while his former boyfriend Rodiney Santiago gave him a run for his booty-shaking money. Their co-star, Austin Armacost, had a bit more meat to show, so he did.

Football season is but a dim memory, but Rob Gronkowski’s naked ass lives on.

When it comes to a battle of the butts, nobody’s back-ends duked it out like Channing Tatum‘s and Joe Manganiello‘s. Bringing up how own rear in ‘Magic Mike’ was the Oscar-winning Matthew McConaughey. (Not to mention Matt Bomer’s banging ass.)

One of the more bodacious backsides to ever be featured here belonged to Milo Ventimiglia, of ‘Heroes’ fame.

Two words that have always signified something hot and usually naked: Nick Youngquest.

Harry Judd has been naked a lot of late, but I think this was the first time he was featured here showing off his clenched coin slot.

Before he had his underwear line, Chris Salvatore appeared here sans any underwear at all.

Sadly, Justin Bieber’s naked butt was also here.

Finally, a few of the racier gentleman who have bared a bit more over the years, and we owe them a round of applause for that. The sultry shots of Benjamin Godfre, the awesome ass and assets of Will Wikle, the magnificence of Jack Mackenroth’s pee-a-boo booty, and one of the finest specimen’s of butt beauty that has graced this site, the sexy stuff of Stuart Reardon (who couldn’t be contained in one single post.)
