Photos from Europe

I was not too much in the mood to take photos on this recent trip. But on two days I did take a few shots. One was in Stockholm with Alex and Daniel. We went down into the Metro where they have each station fitted with artwork. You will see Alex looking a the Solar System. We also went to the Museum of Modern art. Then we tried to find a nice cafe, but the one we wanted was closed because the owner needed to take care of a sick cat. Aw, that is so sweet.

The other day I took photos was when I was with Jose Luis. I went to a garden near Madrid and took photos of flowers, then he and I went out of the city to Aranquez where I shot some more photos.

Oh and in Oxfordshire, I took a photo from my window which you will see below.

Enjoy. I know I did.
































Oh and here is a little something special that I found over at a fellow blogger's site. You will never guess what they are advertising. I love the UK. hat tip to Mike Ditto

It's been available for a long time at the Commercial Closet, which is a great way to see queer commercials from the US and (especially) abroad.

Beautiful pics Peterson... and DANG, that commercial was a definite shocker! The first minute would have indicated NOTHING about the advertised product... VERY classy though ;) I've never been prouder to be a guiness drinker, hehe!

freedombound I am so excited about greenbelt. I may even do some stand up comedy as well as a play or two. Oh and I will lead a Bibliodrama too.

Tonya, nice to see you! just thought of you as I saw Cookeville people when I was in NC last week.

Daniel C, yeah the tacky station photos were blurry. But I should have had video of your now famous dive.

No worries Anna, lots of Tartex got consumed.

yeah let's all have a Guiness after that great ad. I always liked guiness. Now I love it! (except the stupid extra cold crap they serve in some pubs.

Puzzled

Last night I performed Transfigurations-Transgressing Gender in the Bible at Imago Dei Metropolitan Community Church in Glen Mills, PA (about 15 miles outside of Philly). I had a diverse audience of about 45 people -- college students, Quakers, straight, bi, trans and lesbian, young and old. I took my time with the piece maintaining a gentle meditative pace. For the ending when I reveal the identity of the narrator, I had instructed the light tech to dim the lights. Then as the closing music swelled, I asked her to raise the lights to their brigthest intensity. With the music playing, I exited. Always (up until last night) at this point the audience applauds, I wait 5 seconds then come out to take a bow. Last night I exited and then nothing. No one clapped. They sat quietly as the music played. I stood back stage puzzled, baffled. Now what do I do? Wait? Go out anyway? And I wondered for a moment, Did they hate it? Did I confuse them? Offend them? Bore them into a coma? After what ...

The False Image of LIA

John Smid and me-Graduation 1998 (above) & John Smid today (left) By now many have heard that Tennessee's Department of Mental Health & Developmental Disabilities determined that the "ex-gay" program, Love in Action, is operating two “unlicensed mental health supportive living facilities”. LIA has until Friday, September 23 to respond. If LIA statements in Eartha Jane Melzer's article are indicative to how the "change" program might respond, we may see LIA change right before our eyes from a clinical mental health compound into a house of praise and worship. Gerard Wellman, business administrator for Love in Action, and a former Love in Action client, said Sept. 13 that the organization has been in contact with the state but would not comment further. “As a church, we operate under a different set of rules,” Wellman said. Curious, and what rules might these be? What is even more curious is that according to LIA's site only one staff member ...

Marvin on the Airwaves

Since coming back out of the closet (ex-ex-gay) in April, Marvin Bloom, a devout Jew for Jesus, has been making the rounds at various podcasts. His gay-friendly rants have been heard on Spanking Bee Arthur , The Flatus Show and more than once on Joe G's Bored Beyond Belief . Currently you can hear Marvin on Episode 81 of Mila and Jayna's Trans-ponder . In fact, you will also get to hear me too since in his new segment, Moments with Marvin, he interviews me. In other news, I have a boyfriend, and he is not Marvin.
