Since
the site began in August of 2006, people have been writing in (okay, mostly my Mother) telling me that I needed to do a video
blog (or “vblog”) like Rosie and everyone else in the world. Writing the “Don’t Get Me Started”
blog five times a week is daunting enough without adding video production on top of it. Plus, what would be different about
the video blog from the written blog? After the huge response from my blog about being a Forty-Something Gay during Pride
week it hit me that my video blog would feature topics for us garden variety Forty-Something Gays! I hope you enjoy them as
well as the rest of the Some Like It Scott site!
Episode 39 Man MakeUp? No, You're Just A Man
Wearing MakeUp!
Forty-Something Gay, episode 39 – Man MakeUp? -Lately I’ve run across a lot of us
gays wearing makeup. Now some may call it, “Man Makeup” but I just say, “You’re a man wearing makeup”
– big difference and it’s on my nerves.
Forty-Something Gay, episode 38 – Should We Gays Be To Dye For? - I admit it, I dye my hair
but a recent encounter with a fifty-something gay has me re-thinking the whole thing. At our age SHOULD
we gays be to dye for?
Episode 37 Tell Me Again Who My Gayness Is Hurting?
Forty-Something Gay, episode 37 – Tell Me Again Who My Gayness Is Hurting?– As I began my day today I
noticed something that I don’t normally notice – how normal my morning routine is with my guy. I don’t get
how our lives are hurting anyone else’s so for you experts, you’ll have to let me know just who my gayness is
supposed to be hurting.
Forty-Something Gay, episode 36 – So You Think YOU Had A Bad Day?– I get it, a lot of people have bad
days but I’ve had more than my fair share so you think YOU had a bad day?
Forty-Something Gay, episode 35 – I’m not a bi-techual – All these years I’ve told myself
that I was somewhat of a bi-techual. How disheartening to find out when I need it the most that I’m not a bi-techual
at all.
Forty-Something Gay, episode 34 – Gay Religion – Seeing the crazies of the church of the latter day pedophiles
have their children returned to them this week started me thinking that what we gays really need is our own religion! Just
think about how much sense it makes religious freedom and tax breaks! Give me that ol’ Gay Religion!
Forty-Something Gay, episode 33 – Gay Marriage Accepted? – I just knew it wouldn’t be long before
the gays pissed me off about gay marriage. Now there are reports everywhere about how much gay marriages will boost the economy.
Nice try gays but how about sticking to the fact that we’re being denied human rights instead of trying so hard to get
Christians’ wallets to accept us?!?
Forty-Something Gay, episode 32 – Trim Your Nose Hair All Ready! – I don’t know about you but I
just can’t take the people who don’t understand that they have nose hair practically down to their chin. So trim
the nose hair all ready, will ya?
Episode 31 California Gay Marriages - One Gay's
Opinion!
Forty-Something Gay, episode 31 – California Gay Marriages, One Gay’s Opinion – I know it’s
exciting that California is letting gays get married but for this gay, I don’t know if I want the word “marriage”
as much as I want the rights associated with it.
Forty-Something Gay, episode 30 – The Death of the Gay Dinner Party – Last night I went to a gay dinner
party and out to a gay bar. The times they have a changed and they’re boring the crap out of me!
Episode 29 The Federal Stimulus Program Stimulated
Me In All The Wrong Ways!
Forty-Something Gay, episode 29 – The Federal Stimulus Program Stimulated Me In All The Wrong Ways –
George W has done it again, outraged and disgusted me all at the same time. Imagine my surprise when I saw the amount of my
federal income tax stimulus check.
Episode 28 What do you call your partner, spouse,
mate?
Forty-Something Gay, episode 28 – What do you call your mate, partner, spouse? – Even after over nineteen
years of being with the same guy I have no idea how to introduce him. He’s not my husband, he’s not my boyfriend,
he’s just my guy. But what this forty-something gay wants to know is what term do you use?
Forty-Something Gay, episode 27 – GPS “Gay Perfect ‘Ssory” – I don’t know why
but I’ve never had a good sense of direction. Well, recently I used a GPS and let me just say, “I’m sold!”
Everyone needs to have one of these…immediately!
Episode 26 Who Needs A Gay Network When There's
Bravo TV?
Episode 26
– Who Needs A Gay Network When We Have Bravo? – Honestly, is there a need for gay networks as long as Bravo TV
is around? And were they out of their gay minds when they sold Project Runway?
Episode 25
– The Gay On Gay Crime Of Attitude – That’s right, I’m telling all. I know the image we’re supposed
to promote is us gays all linked arm in arm singing, “We Are Family” but there’s a much seedier side to
the story that only I would tell.
Episode 24 What Is Moses Doing On At Easter And
Not Passover?
Episode 24
– Why Is The Ten Commandments At Easter And Not Passover? – Few things make me crazier than when the mainstream
Christian views get in the way of an awesome Jewish holiday. So explain to me why the hell we’re seeing the movie, The
Ten Commandments at Easter and they’re not waiting until Passover for the yearly viewing?
Episode 23
– How NOT To Wear A Scarf – Well, it would seem as if the fashion sheep are at it again. Can you watch one show
or see anyone NOT wearing their scarf this way? Well everyone needs to realize personal style means not wearing a scarf the
way everyone else is wearing it.
Episode 22 Revisiting A Classic - The Glossy Fashion
Magazine!
Episode 22 – Revisiting
A Classic – The Glossy Fashion Magazine – With more and more of us receiving our magazine subscriptions online,
I had forgotten how great it is to have a big old glossy fashion magazine around the house!
Episode 21 How Many Products Does It Take To Get
To The Center Of A Forty-Something Gay?
Episode 21
– How Many Products Does It Take To Get To The Center Of A Gay? – Recently I was amazed at just how many products
it took to make me look presentable in the morning. I can tell you that it’s not like the old Tootsie Pop commercials
where it only took three licks to get to the center!
Episode 20
– Is Cleanliness Next To Gayliness? – I don’t know if you have to be OCD or a clean freak like Felix Unger
to be a gay, I just know that I’ve started cleaning my office and now I’m overwhelmed with how much crap I’ve
accumulated.
Episode 19 Why I'd Be Going Straight To Hell (If I believed in it!)
Episode 19
– Why I’d Be Going Straight To Hell (If I Believed In It) – I know it’s not nice to make fun of other
people but sometimes I just can’t seem to help myself. Thank God, I don’t believe in hell!
Episode 18
– The Beard – No, I’m not talking about that girl you dated in high school to try to make people think you
were straight. I’m talking about facial hair, which is usually best left for George Michael and the Bearded Lady at
the Circus!
Episode 17 ...To Forgive Your Dry Cleaner Is Divine!
Episode 17
– …To Forgive Your Dry Cleaner Is Divine – Well, for those of you who watched episode 3 (if you didn’t
watch it immediately), I decided ‘tis the season
