Spend Most of the Weekend Being a Techo-Nerd
By Daddy
Las Vegas — I closed four issues over the weekend included the dreaded "No login item when logged out" and anther pass at the "Title Case" function used for the headlines in the news. There are three "Priority" issues of twenty-eight issues left to resolve. I hopefully will get another hunk of time to nerd out on this week.
Didn't have the need to go out, so started a Chicken Noodle soup from scratch. The Chicken was stuffed with onion/oranges which provided a wonderful fragrance for the neighbors. The chicken turned out very tender and flavorful, and I've started reducing the bones to chicken stock. It should be ready as we speak, so I"ll need to get it decanted into mason jars and get the jars into the refrigerator.
This is week five of my "Shelter in place" and I'm doing OK. This week I'm only going out to see the Wound Doctor and to pick up a package that's been waiting for me since last Friday. I'll be doing that first as the mailbox is closing at 1pm each day. Turns out that their is a Sonic drive-in on the way to the wound doctor so I get "isolate in car" as I eat.
Last night was full of "What If" dreaming, in this case what would I do if I got a million dollars. First thing is to pay off that nagging credit card balance. The second is a dream that somebody else had for me; "The Daddy Show." Originally the concept was to have people in the interview however the novel coronavirus has shown that I'll need to be a bit more sophisticated and be able to have people show up using the internet. Obviously, this is a long term project and I'm picking up equipment as I have a few extra pennies here and there.
I'm still sheltering in place and mostly binge watching "Person of Interest," which is riveting and has compelling plots. If you are into tall, dark, and handsome this is a stoic man for you.
Somehow "The Letter For The King" was able to sneak in. A cute young aspiring knight Tiuri (Amir Wilson) finds himself on a perilous mission to deliver a secret letter to the King who lives across the Great Mountains. A tiny Gay subplot nicely handled gave me an "Ahhhh" moment. It turns out that the young knight that I would love to do, was in fact doable and that his hookup would have made for a satisfying three way.

These Gay Men Identify as Bottoms but Hate Anal Sex
By Bobby Box
Cyberspace — Can you really be a bottom if you don’t enjoy receptive anal intercourse?
