After last night's mesmerizing Golden Globe speech, I'm happy to place Jodie Foster on a special pedestal and worship her forever.

It can mean a lot of things. 1. I care about my health. 2. I care about your health. 3. I'm not in denial. 4. I have no qualms about visiting a doctor. 5. I'm not afraid to get tested. 6. I want to know my HIV and my STD status. 7. I want those with whom I engage in sex to respect my desire to stay healthy. 8. I want those with whom I engage in sex to know I want them to stay healthy, too. 9. I have too much self-respect to fear discussing this meaningful topic with you. 10. I love my life, my good health, and myself. I want you to know that. A piece of paper in the hands of evil will mean nothing. But a piece of paper in the hands of a man with a soul will mean plenty to another like-minded gentleman. I haven't fucked anyone this morning. And I haven't had unsafe sex with anyone in the 20 years prior to my test results. And no STDs in those 20 years. Any more questions before I shove my cock down your throat?

Horny is as horny does. I try to act as if we're both positive, but I know I'm negative. I also know I don't have herpes, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and/or any other kind of STD. I'm happy to open up this discussion with any sex partner, and I'm perfectly willing to share my results with them. (My gay doctor also provides copies.) The first time I talked about health risks with a sex partner (back in the 80's) was awkward for me. But the conversation surprised me because it went so much better than I ever expected. That sex partner was thrilled, relieved that I brought it up. And we proceeded to have the most intimate, loving conversation, that actually made the sex so much more tender and fun. Now, I don't hesitate to bring the subject up (at the right time), and the results have always served me well. Of course there's no way to know the absolute truth. Sex with anyone exposes you to certain risks. But if you engage in discussions about health before sex, you stand a chance to reveal the mind and personality of your sex partner in a way no other conversation can offer. This window into someone's soul does not encourage me to engage in unsafe sex, but it does offer a unique insight that can (and does) enhance the safe-sex intimate experience.

Sorry? You didn't create the show so why be sorry? Almost all the television I watch is recorded. I work in the biz so I endure what I feel is appropriate. I watch Glee because it's good for business. It's a genius creation even though I realize it's not for everyone. And, sometimes, it's definitely not for me. I did think the Madonna episode was FABULOUS. I hope we get a Cher episode. Eventually, I expect this formula to tire as most formulas do. With any more shows like "Cheesus," I may need to think about canceling my recordings.

Sometimes Glee sucks. Well, I thought it was the worst Glee episode I had ever seen. I couldn't wait for it to end. In fact, I almost shut it off before it ended. What a sappy, soppy, glop of sissy shit. Kurt is just too Staten Island girlie for me. I want to punch him in the face and I don't enjoy watching him sing. Making him not believe in God because the Church has caused him so much pain: how original. How boring. The character's relationship with his father is so fake. No chemistry. They did a better job with Rachel and Idina Menzel. The whole episode dragged on like a week-long funeral scene on a daytime soap. Dreadful. The song choices made me want to bang my head with a cast iron frying pan. Watching a repeat of the Britney Spears episode would have been so much more fun.

I never got hooked on Lost. Probably not. The butch queens who hate Broadway wouldn't be caught dead watching sissy ol' Glee. Like most everything on TV, I will dvr it. I watch it to stay current. I don't like the fact the music is pre-recorded. It would cost a fortune to shoot that show live but I can imagine what fun that would be to watch. The story is very camp. And sometimes camp can be fun.

RE: Diana Ross Yes, I've also worked with Diana Ross and our history goes way back. I'm very pleased to see her back on the scene. The short video clips on her website, http://www.dianaross.com/ demonstrate her continuing ability to captivate with her remarkable looks. Ross' voice sounds more delicate than ever but the production value of this new album may compensate. The background vocals sound wonderfully mixed. Diana Ross deserved a better film career but I will always regard her as a special star.

Love you, too, sweetie. :-)

"The amazing thing about Liza's shows is it's one woman and a microphone. There are no dancers. There are no circus elephants. There are no Harlettes. I don't mean to be impolite but maybe Liza can't afford the "extra" business deductions. I hear she needs as much money as she can get her hands on, so, scaled-down production is a necessity. "It's not the Liza of the 70's. But she's a seasoned performer who can tell a story through song and captivate an audience, with only a microphone for a prop. She's a show biz vet and I agree with deej on this. No matter what has happened in the last twenty years, she's still Liza Minnelli.

Watching Liza is like watching a three-year-old blind girl cross a six-lane highway in L.A. during rush hour. You just sit on the edge of your seat waiting for a pile-up. I worked with Liza in the 80's and I'll pass on Vegas. The voice is shot and she can thank years of self-abuse for it. I hear she is still smoking cigarettes. Same with Dionne Warbitch. There's nothing worse than a (once) great talent riddled with demons and baggage. :-(

Purplekow, I went to bed last night chuckling over your post. My mind (and stomach) started churning with delicious answers to your query. I'm no escort but since I rarely bottom and always take the necessary precautions anyway, here are a few thoughts your question brought to mind: 1. Have you considered Drano Dual Force Foamer? I hear it works wonders and is so easy to use. 2. Call 917-902-2835 and ask for Tom Isern. I hear he's "tender and gentle," and judging by his mouth, he swallows, too. 3. Just how big is your tub? 4. I sure hope your monthly income is more than a Social Security check. 5. Can you afford a trip to Berlin? 6. Does your shit smell like Drakkar Noir? I'm confident you'll get a heartfelt response from some enema-loving escort but I doubt it will appear on this board. Thank goodness for the private email option. Here's one final suggestion, avoid dinner at Rosa Mexicano before the cleansing event. In fact, try fasting a week in advance and keep your "Do Not Resuscitate" form handy. I sincerely wish you a clean, fun time. :-)
