What My Blog is Really About

Apparently, the following are the most popular searches which have directed you all here to my blog. I guess my blog is really about Greek singers, Puerto Rican actors, and of course, nude English explorers. Also lots of people called Michael Lewis, an ex-porn star turned singer, a DILF, cute guys (no surprise there!), and the ex-porn-star-turned-singer’s ex. The bits about my personal life, views, progress, love, and the rest, well, they’re just for a selective audience, the connaisseurs of a fine AngloAm story. The pics below tell the story (all thumbnails, all embiggenable).
For the record, I’m all in favor of all the below listed items. Even Têtu. If only I could get Sakis to acknowledge my publishing his name so much. Without me, he’d be nothing.

About and Out
June 28, 2008 at 10:13 pm | In Apple, Cute Guys, Friends | 3 CommentsTags: Exercise, FNC, iPhone, Michael Lewis, walking, weight lifting
Hello everyone, here I am again.
Friday was a fairly good day until it became not so good. I honestly thought CH was going to come to dinner with our Friday Night Club but I missed his call asking for directions and he couldn’t make it. I felt awful as I’d tried to encourage him to join us – he seems sometimes a bit lonely although…maybe not. All was going well at dinner until I got all emotional about feeling self-conscious about weight lifting which I want to start. I felt like (once again) who the hell am I to try to ‘get above my station/rôle in life’
My mood nearly instantly plummeted and I felt terribly sad – like my dreamlet was dying. 
I recovered once C and I had a chance to talk it out. If anyone would like to give me inspiration, I’d surely appreciate it and would return the favour.
It’s going to be really hard to go work out with military hardbodies; I’m very apprehensive but C’s being very encouraging. I’ve got a good couple of books on the subject and of course Neal will make up some kind of programme for me to follow. As C pointed out I was scared of walking, and I conquered that; I was scared of going to the gym, and I conquered that. But when I was just down there to make the inventory I felt so out of place in one room (with Nautilus equipment) and utterly mystified by the Hammer Strength stuff with the odd projections and plates and strange appearances. However, as I often try to remind myself, nobody came out of a box knowing how to use it; everyone had to learn and start somewhere.
Saturday dawned (I guess; I wasn’t up to see it!) and off I went to the gym to sweat my ass off in the heat, see the remarkable lack of eye candy, and only do 50 minutes of walking. Neal came by and I did some upper body work. I have graduated to 25lbs in each hand on the chest press! C mowed the lawn and did a really nice job tidying up the rampant growth that this damp spring has fostered.
When I took my post Neal shower I weighed myself and I’d lost about six pounds since Monday. I’m sure most of it is water weight and on official weigh-in day I’ll have gained about two-three of those back but still! 
We went to a really delicious middle eastern restaurant in Laurel where I had a great lunch of felafel, hummus, cucumber salad and naan. From there we checked out the location of the Melting Pot in Columbia where C and I are going for dinner next week and then to the Apple Store in Columbia Mall to play with the iPhone. I really want one. I really really want one so bad. But I like having landware’s Pocket Quicken on my Treo so I really really really hope that it will be available in a Quicken format.
On the way home we decided to stop in Panera for a drink and a snack and on a whim I texted CH to invite him over. What do you know he was driving by and pulled in and sat and chatted with us – for three hours! I was so glad that he didn’t think I was some kind of jerk for not getting back to him yesterday evening in time. On the way home through a bit of a storm we decided to grab dinner from Burger King – I had the veggie burger and C the whopper.
Now…I always think that it’s good to get as much instruction as possible in exercise so here are four – count ‘em, four – videos of our old friend Michael Lewis teaching us how to move our bodies. I think one of them may be a repeat but can you ever get enough of ML’s goodness?
(Does he get you moving?)
Getting closer!

Three cheers for me – I’m getting a little closer to migrating the blog to my “real” site – www.AngloAmsSite.com. There’s actually a (rather ugly) placeholder there now, which directs you here; please visit it if only to update your bookmarks. I swear I’ll learn to make nice beautiful pages soon!
This is why they call it work
Other than that today was pretty grim at work – for some reason I couldn’t mold myself into a cooperative mind-set and sat grumpily about. We’re going mad arranging a conference for next month, and Mr. Grouch keeps piling on things he wants (and walking away after). His latest brain child is to get ‘give-aways’ (somehow paid for with taxpayers’ money) for the participants who have to be there anyway. This after checking and finding out that if the government buys refreshments for the attendees, those of us local may not have a bite or a drop of them. But we can pass them out, with whatever junk we can get. Of course this just complicates things. 
In mitten drin, as it were, I’m also arranging a side-show and as if that weren’t enough I’m also in charge of our Combined Federal Campaign (for 120 people) charity drive. I’m such a giver. I wish I could lie back and relax like Mr. Lewis here…do you think his muscles are nice and loose or is he a tight one? How would you test your hypothesis?
Nerd meat
I should explain. A new show on television has really grabbed my attention. It’s Chuck on NBC on Monday nights at eight o’clock. (Check your local listings.) The idea is that by accident our hero Chuck is privvy to all of the intelligence secrets of all of our security and intelligence agencies, while being quite a normal guy in charge of the “Nerd Herd” which repairs computers at his local big-box computer store.
Obviously he has adventures with his two handlers, one from the CIA and one from NSA. The show explores the intersection of this secret, exicting and dangerous life with the boring normal existence he actually loves. Naturally there’s a love complication with his love interest and I’d call it comedy-action, more than action, but I really like it.
Now, all the ‘buzz’ is about Zachary Levi who’s nice enough looking but give me big 
tough guy Adam Baldwin who plays Chuck’s NSA handler. If you enlarge the picture you’ll notice a hint of chest hair. Lucky Chuckie to be handled by him!
That takes care of the nerd part – the meat comes from the delicious steak dinner C made for me. Chuckie may be lucky but I know I’m the most fortunate guy in the world to have my wonderful man.
At least the drought might be breaking
It was too rainy for me to walk tonight so no stretching shirtless or enjoying the beautiful sun like they have in Israel, like Michael Lewis enjoys so much…
A new man
As we wave goodbye to Mr. Lewis, we must get ready for our new man starting tomorrow. Here’s a sneak preview……any names?
Saghamo Mshvidobisa!
October 23, 2007 at 9:58 pm | In Cute Guys, Gay, Languages | 2 CommentsTags: Georgian, Israelis, Michael Lewis, Movies, website
That’s Georgian for ‘Good evening.’ Sadly I’ve let all the hard work I put in learning the Georgian alphabet fall a bit. I need to set aside the time to study. The last thing I did was to look at the first conjugation present verb paradigm. That is – the very first ‘real’ chapter of the book I got for myself. So there’s something else I want to do. Again; if you’re a motivated person, getakvat (please) tell me. Gmadlobt! After all – who wouldn’t want to know a language with lovely words like gvprtskvni? (Gvprtskvni means “you peel us.” Not what a person might say often, but there you are.)
Peel these
If you want
to listen to this consonant-rich tongue I recommend the movie “Late Marriage” starring the delectable Lior Askhenazi, pictured here. Mr. Askhenazi was also in “Walk on Water” which was directed by Eytan Fox, who also directed “Yossi and Jagger” starring the equally delectable Yehuda Levi, also pictured here in a scene from the 
movie with Ohad Knoller who played his boyfriend. (Do I have a thing for cute Israelis or what?)
In my defense, all three of these movies are regarded as at least very good by most critics and I highly recommend you check them out. I think that “Walk on Water” is possibly the weakest, and “Late Marriage” the strongest.
All aches and pains
Neal the personal trainer came this evening. I’d walked a little – only 15 minutes but boy he put me through my paces in strength training (well, the little he has me do). Has anyone else noticed that halfway through the reps the little weight pixies come along and add happy little extras to the dumbbells or barbells.
I’ve got to start wearing the better shoes for walking even if it wears them out fast, which kinda upsets me as they’re so expensive. He also wants me to walk 200 minutes a week total and cut down to only one soda a day (eventually only one every other day). That’s a tall order, but I think I can manage. I do love Diet Dr Pepper though. I have to learn to dislike Chipotle’s!
I wish I could have lovely spaghetti dinners like I had at K & D’s house more often. They kept saying that it was nothing fancy but it was the best darn dinner I’ve had there in so long. They are so warm and healing. I wish everyone could have friends like them. I wish you had friends like them. The world’d be a better place.
All coming together and moving along
Soon I’ll be able to put this on my new web host under my very own domain (www.angloamssite.com – set your bookmarks now or soon!) and even possibly host WordPress so I can make it more spiffy. I have to design the site, though, and figure out a bunch of stuff. I’m also working to get the other site that C & I share working with it’s own domain name, which you can get by e-mailing me. That site may be password-protected, though, so I’d better know who you are.
Nope, I didn’t forget
Just two pictures today, two views of Mr. Lewis. Wouldn’t you like to play with his ball? I have to say, though, I do think it’s nearly time to start obsessing on some new beauty, don’t you?
(But I’m sure going to miss him when the time comes!)
Something to Watch for Your Monday
October 22, 2007 at 2:31 pm | In Cute Guys | Leave a CommentTags: Michael Lewis, video
I found a few Michael Lewis videos to brighten your Monday afternoon:
1) Here’s our lad, apparently as part of one episode he acted in on an Israeli television series called “Rosh Gadol” which means “big head.” IMDB tags it as comedy/drama/romance so I’m figuring it’s some sort of school-based series. Mr. Lewis apparently graced episode 1 of series 3. He seems to sing nicely too. If anyone knows anything about how he did on his big head, please don’t shaft me by keeping it a secret…
(He even sings, and talks of being an outsider. I’d welcome him in, wouldn’t you?)
2) Here’s another, all too short one, which apparently is “produced by Zivlin advertisement for teens and by Altneuland productions and dreams.” Not sure what they’re pushing but if it’s dreams for MikeDreamy, I’ll buy in…
3) He is looking foxy for Fox Men, some sort of clothing line…shirtless, bless his little cotton socks…does he move you like he does me?
4) Here’s one where Mr. Lewis and model Ross (also Israeli) celebrate the beauties of Israel…I thought surely Mr. Lewis was one of those beauties:
5) Finally here’s an older one from Fox. Now really, would you honestly, could you really let him sleep alone in a little narrow single bed when you were just across the room with a little narrow single bed of your own to share? Especially after all that drama just to get him into your bedroom in the first place?
Monday, Monday

Well, here am I at home, because our new TV was delivered today. The ‘window’ was big enough to drive a truck through – just ‘before 4:30 pm.’ God alone knows what the reception will be like at work tomorrow – Mr. Grumpy’s probably harrumphing and moaning. Oh, well. After this post, I will probably knuckle down and figure out how to get a host for angloamssite.com to carry this blog and other pages, and the other site that if you know us you know.Then I have to learn how to use GoLive and iWeb better, and edit the video from the Limberlost walk.
And I’ve been moaning about not having time to get any of this done, and here I have a whole day to do it, and it’s 2 p.m. and I’ve done nothing but babble on the South African forum I post on, and watch internet porn. Not very productive. And at work tomorrow I’l be kicking myself for wasting so much time on such worthless activities.
Can I ask a favour? If you’re a motivated person, please tell me your secret.
And I should get my hair cut but that’s no fun, is it? I actually hate getting my hair cut, not because I like long hair (I don’t) but because I don’t like having a stranger that close to me.
It must be the same for Michael Lewis. Sometimes his hair is quite long…on a wall, in the cool blue deep…and sometimes, it’s quite short . How would you like him cut? (If you click his pic, he enlarges…himself at least.)
Meanwhile
I’m all kinds of sad/jealous/wistful because I was listening to BBC Radio 4 and they were talking about how new inheritance rules affect married couples and “of course, this also affects people in civil partnerships as well.” I’m so jealous I guess because C and I can’t get married like that here, not yet anyway.
I worry about making sure he’s provided for should I pass on first. For no particularly good reason, he will have fewer assets, less of my benefits, than he would if we were married. I always get so frustrated when anti-marriage-equality people talk about their objections; while their objections are all theoretical and intangible (as well as being inaccurate, irrational, and very self-serving), the results of C & I (and thousands of other families) not being married are very real and very tangible and very accurate.
I’ve often told C somewhat melodramatically that I’d give him the shirt off my back, but I can’t give him my pension? So that a straight couple can pretend that keeping me unequal cements their marriage? Are straight marriages so fragile? (Perhaps, half of the participants in this ‘timeless’ ’sanctified’ ‘traditional’ relationship wind up giving up on it. How that saves marriage and defends the traditional family I wish I knew.)
I realize I’m probably preaching to the choir if you’re the type to read my blog but still. I sometimes have to vent. I am always surprised at how angry this issue makes me. When I think much about it, I want to shake people and break things. Religious bigots’ things, mostly.
Oh, well, we have a new governor now in Maryland, so things may soon be looking up.
Now I’m Really Back
October 21, 2007 at 9:34 pm | In Cute Guys, Exercise, Friends | Leave a CommentTags: D, J, K, Michael Lewis, walking, weekend
What a lovely weekend. Friday evening the “FNC” all met at a kebab house sans one of the group. However, we did manage to have a good time before the restaurant closed and we had to leave.
Saturday
Quite uncharacteristically early C and I went to do some immigration business in Baltimore and then did a bit of shopping and errand-running. I bought some great new (very expensive) shoes at the New Balance store in the Annapolis Mall. They’re Model 926 and have a roll bar in them to stop my foot from underpronating (rolling to the outside) and hurting. Additionally they should look better at work than the Country Walkers I bought the other day. I’m so embarrassed; because I’m so fat cuddly, it’s hard/impossible for me to tie them up so I have to have C help me. He’s so good tending to me like a tugboat hovering around a giant barge helping me. His patience and understanding is an inspiration.
Some very good friends – my very best friends in fact – invited us to their
house on the Eastern Shore for dinner. They are such good people, I feel sometimes in awe of their ability to cope with some pretty rough hands they’ve been dealt and still, consistently, to be able to be so giving and compassionate. Some time ago, when I was really down, I remember D telling me “we’d feed and clothe you” and I know it was/is true. I hope I’m as good a friend to them as they are to me. After dinner we watched gorgeous Chris Evans in Cellular.
Sunday
Today was lazy right up to the end. Since we didn’t get back from the Shore until 4 a.m. or so, I didn’t get up until quite late and C & I just sat around all day, even ordering dinner to be delivered. (C did make the most delicious scrambled eggs for brekkies.) But then I finally hauled myself out of the house for the first real walk since so many days ago – I did 32′38″ and felt fine. I was listening as always of late to Bok Van Blerk’s album De La Rey and even managing to sing along in Afrikaans with it. The video’s quite impressive:
Now I really do need a shower just like Michael Lewis is taking (I wonder if he needs somebody to soap him up and rinse him down?)…
Like his CK underwear? There’s more in this album.
…Later That Same Evening

Not the best meal…
The restaurant sucked; the food was salty rather than nicely spiced, and the service was atrocious. But I was ‘good’ in that I had the grilled salmon rather than the beloved ribs. I was so virtuous that I decided not to walk tonight but to do a bit of research on a good host for this blog. There’s a lot to learn!
If I had walked…
I’d be all sweaty and would need a shower like Michael Lewis does. Would you like to lather him up?
Adrift
October 18, 2007 at 5:12 pm | In Cute Guys, Exercise, Family | 1 CommentTags: dad, life, Michael Lewis, mum, video, walking, Work
Hmmm.
Last night I didn’t do very well; I didn’t go out to walk. No real excuses. And this evening I’m going to go out for dinner with mum and dad but oh, those ribs are calling. We’re going to a new place in Bowie that serves ‘Texas’ food – mainly steaks and barbecue and things. All very hearty and all very delicious and all very big. And weighty.
I’ll try to go walking after. After all, this dinner was my idea, prompted mainly by a recognition that little in life, including sadly the people we love and belong with, is permanent.
Odd thoughts
Sometimes I imagine a large broad roller coaster, the old wooden kind, like the Rebel Yell…the cars are very wide and I and all my friends and family are sitting in one big broad car, and suddenly one of the party falls out and the rest of us have to keep going.
We can’t stop the ride, we can’t pause it for a moment, and that person who fell out will never see what we see…and we can’t see what they are seeing. Not only are they not there, but we hurtle helplessly away, so fast, unable to hang on to a moment with each other, but tied to the ride.
And sometimes the ride is fun, and sometimes it’s not but we can’t stop the ride, not to go back to the fallen, not to enjoy the view, or prolong our time on it.
Maybe the trick is to enjoy the ride with its crashing breathtaking speed…but it’s never all enjoyable. Maybe the trick is to try to have the moments with each other even as the ride speeds us along. We have nothing else, no station, no let’s-get-off-a-bit-and-chat. Lacking the time for a leisurely chat we have to make things count now because there’s little else we know of.
Maybe. What are your thoughts?
Oh dear
That was a bit deep.
I think I have a lot more exercising to do before I can work out as well as Michael Lewis…he seems a little hands-on with the demo girls on this video, don’t you think? But it is good to see a guy and his ball bouncing along…
Here’s a pic of him modeling a rather neat shirt that says “religion” on it. Would you like to get down on your knees?
Yet Another One?!?
October 17, 2007 at 10:48 pm | In Cute Guys | Leave a CommentTags: Michael Lewis, templates
Yes, I’ve changed the template yet again. I hope you like this one.
The gent up there, by the way, is Brazilian surfer and model Rafael Branciforti Michael Lewis. He does give a nice bit of tongue, doesn’t he? Poor Rafael, do you think I could make it up to him by obsessing on him when I’m done with Michael?
See me on Facebook!
