> Well, I know. It’s one of those situations where they’re dicks - but imagine the life you’ve had to live where your own personality is in such direct conflict with your environment to the point where the only way you can keep your mind straight is to hate yourself and others like you with such fury. It’s just… pitiable.

I might feel this way if this guy was living a quiet life of unfulfilled despair. But he’s quite happy to stow his fury away long enough to travel around Europe with his Rentboy. His fury seems to happily take a back seat to his needs and wants when it suits him. That makes him despicable in my eyes.

I would have thought he would have been protected by that sacred bond between a customer and a prostitute.

(Obviously, the young man squealed. So to speak.)

Eight perfectly formed inches? We know who ended up squealing.

Not only that, he failed to do his job in handling the luggage.

Based on the airport security camera pictures showing Rev. Rekers carting his luggage around himself.

Fixed.

The Appalachian Trail is the Appalachian Trail excuse for a heterosexual affair. Mark Sanford is unusual among conservatives in that his extra-marital affair was with a woman.

I’ve been trying to think of a joke for this, but if you want me to do anything involving teabagging it’s going to cost you another 200 bucks.

Truer words have probably been spoken, but they’re not easy to find. . . .

I believe it would be correct to say that he needed some assistance getting his junk in the trunk.

Choose your own adventure:

If you choose for him to say, “Mmmph mmph mmmpph” because his mouth was full, turn to page 68.

If you choose for him to say, “Mmmph mmph mmmpph” because his mouth was stuck together (with, let’s just tell ourselves it’s peanut butter), turn to page 70.

I wonder if anti-gay conservatives ever ask themselves, “If God hates gays so much, why does He think it’s so hysterically funny when this happens?”

Well, the [guy in question](http://joemygod.blogspot.com/2010/05/meet-geo-male-prostitute-hired-by-narth.html) _is_ 5’9" and weighs 130lbs., so I suspect that he might not have been hired based on his baggage handling abilities. And Rekers sounds like a guy with quite a bit of baggage.
