December 18, 2007 - Well this site has sure grown over the past couple of months. 25 new quality feeds have been added, fulfilling my promise that I would replace all the stale stuff I removed in the summer. Now the bottom of the page is just as important as the top! Among the noteworthy new feeds is Gay Mega Feed this could be an entire website on it's own and in all honesty has more content than alot of stand alone paysites that exist out there. The TV feeds are also outstanding quality with a diverse assortment of videos served up in fab high definition streaming video! Vic and Pavel on the Originals have proved to be our most popular offering in that section yet. Lots more hot stuff coming soon! Also with some new advertising and such over the past couple of months we have gained alot of new members, I welcome you all, hope you enjoy the site and as always you can email me anytime with problems, feedback or just to say hello.

What a year for snow where I live. We are just getting walloped, it's not even Christmas yet and we already have 2 feet on the ground and it just keeps coming. A complete flip from the unusual green Chistmas we had last year. I actually love the snow and find nothing more invigorating than bundling up and spending some time outdoors, I don't think anything beats the feeling of coming in the warm house for a hot drink after a few hours in the freezing cold. I thought this was a kewl picture, it's my dog Bandit's girlfriend from the farm next door waiting patiently like a statue in the perishing cold for Bandit to come out and play, Bandit does his best to stay and play with her but he does not have the coat she has and doesn't last long in these freezing temperatures. You can click on the pic to enlarge it as you can with most pics on my blog. Here's some more winter pics I have taken over the past month.

The garage is coming along well and is pretty much wrapped up until the new year I've updated the picture gallery here.

I am having company for the Christmas holidays so I've been busy decorating the house and a tree. I'm also hosting my family supper this year, my Mum is worrying her head off that I won't be able to pull it off and we'll end up at McDonalds for Christmas dinner. Mum should really have more faith in my ability to call friends for help. I'm really in the spirit this year, I wonder if all the snow adds to that feeling. Have a really good holiday season to all who celebrate and a safe and peaceful new year. It's been a pleasure serving up my website for yet another year.

Happy season to all from me and Bandit.

November 20, 2007 - If you like hot Asian guys then I just added a new site for you! Boykakke is one of the premiere Asian gay sites on the net. Hope you enjoy. We are very close to the debut of our "DVD a day" for the Video Downloads. You will be able to download a new full length DVD every day and the videos will be presented with categories and search functions for easier browsing! I will also welcome suggestions for titles you would like to see on the site.

My driver's test update.... I didn't fail, my stupid car failed.

Actually I let the damn plates expire. The guy didn't even start the test.

I totally forgot your plates have to be renewed on your birthday in Ontario. It's different out west. When I renewed it today the lady said I should have gotten mail about it but unless it got lost in the shuffle - I didn't.

Oh well, one good thing I managed to rebook the test for a week from Friday, I was very worried it would be months.

October 31, 2007 - When I moved out west I let my Ontario license expire for more than 7 years. When I moved back they told me I'd have to go through the whole process again. I have been driving but I've needed a licensed driver with me.

And YES I've always made sure the licensed driver is with me.

Well I have my driver's test (finally! ) in a week. I can't believe after driving for so many years that I'm actually nervous. I'll die if I fail.

I've been practising parallel parking, I would say that's my biggest weakness. A friend told me she told her instructor she couldn't do it and he asked "Do you ever plan on doing it?" she said no and that was it - she passed. I wonder if I should take that approach? My luck that'll fail me on the spot.

Anyway, I'll do lots of driving in the next week to get ready.



I'm building a garage and thought I'd share the progress in pics


How Could You?
A story told from a dog's point of view...

When I was a puppy, I entertained you with my antics and made you laugh.
You called me your child, and despite a number of chewed shoes and gloves and a
couple of murdered throw pillows, I became your best friend. Whenever I
was "bad," you'd shake your finger at me and ask "How could you?" - but
then you'd relent, and roll me over for a belly rub.

My housebreaking took a little longer than expected, because you were
terribly busy, but we worked on that together. I remember those nights
of nuzzling you in bed and listening to your confidences and secret
dreams, and I believed that life could not be any more perfect. We went
for long walks and runs in the park, car rides, stops for ice cream (I
only got the cone because "ice cream is bad for dogs," you said), and I
took long naps in the sun waiting for you to come home when you were out.

Gradually, you began spending more time on your computer and on your career, and
more time searching for a human mate. I waited for you patiently,
comforted you through heartbreaks and disappointments, never chided you
about bad decisions, and romped with glee at your homecomings, and when
you fell in love.

He, now your partner, is not a "dog person" - still I welcomed him into
our home, tried to show him affection, and obeyed him. I was happy
because you were happy.

There had been a time, when others asked you if you had a dog,
that you produced a photo of me from your wallet and told them stories
about me. These past few years, you just answered "yes" and changed the
subject. I had gone from being "your dog" to "just a dog," and you
resented every expenditure on my behalf.

Now, you have a new opportunity in another city, and you
will be moving to a place that does not allow pets. You've made the
right decision for your "family," but there was a time when I was your
only family.

I was excited about the car ride until we arrived at the animal shelter.
It smelled of dogs and cats, of fear, of hopelessness.
You filled out the paperwork and said "I know you will find a good home
for him." They shrugged and gave you a pained look. They understand the
realities facing a middle-aged dog, even one with "papers." You gave me a
goodbye pat on the head, avoided my eyes, and politely refused to take
my collar and leash with you. You had a deadline to meet and now I have
one, too.

After you left, the two nice ladies said you probably knew about your
upcoming move months ago and made no attempt to find me another good
home. They shook their heads and asked "How could you?"

They are as attentive to us here in the shelter as their busy schedules
allow.
They feed us, of course, but I lost my appetite days ago. At first,
whenever anyone passed my pen, I rushed to the front, hoping it was you
that you had changed your mind - that this was all a bad dream...or I
hoped it would at least be someone who cared, anyone who might save me.
When I realized I could not compete with the frolicking for attention of
happy puppies, oblivious to their own fate, I retreated to a far corner
and waited.

I heard her footsteps as she came for me at the end of the day, and I
padded along the aisle after her to a separate room. A blissfully quiet
room. She placed me on the table and rubbed my ears, and told me not to
worry. My heart pounded in anticipation of what was to come, but there
was also a sense of relief. The prisoner of love had run out of days. As
is my nature, I was more concerned about her. The burden which she bears
weighs heavily on her, and I know that, the same way I knew your every
mood.

She gently placed a tourniquet around my foreleg as a tear ran down her
cheek. I licked her hand in the same way I used to comfort you so many
years ago. She expertly slid the hypodermic needle into my vein. As I
felt the sting and the cool liquid coursing through my body, I lay down
sleepily, looked into her kind eyes and murmured "How could you?"

Perhaps because she understood my dogspeak, she said "I'm so sorry." She
hugged me, and hurriedly explained it was her job to make sure I went to
a better place, where I wouldn't be ignored or abused or abandoned, or
have to fend for myself - a place of love and light so very different
from this earthly place. And with my last bit of energy, I tried to
convey to her with a thump of my tail that my "How could you?" was not
directed at her. It was you, My Beloved Master, I was thinking of. I
will think of you and wait for you forever.

May everyone in your life continue to show you so much loyalty.

October 16, 2007 - As some of you will know I've been a pot smoker for a very long time. I started in my late teens and never looked back. I even tried growing the stuff for awhile. Over the years I have defended it's use with the common arguments such as "it's not as harmful as alcohol and that's legal", "it doesn't lead to heavier drug use", "pot smokers are mostly pacifists", "it's natural" all of that stuff. Well I still believe that is doesn't lead to harder drug use, if it did I would surely have died from a heroin overdose by now. I also still find the comparison to alcohol legit and believe it's prohibition goes way back to the 40's and 50's and the chemical industries' desire to put the hemp industry out of business and pave the way for all the chemicals and plastics the world consumes today. I still believe it is a peaceful form of recreation and doesn't lead to barroom brawls. I don't think it's entirely natural. The way it is grown hydroponically nowadays is definitely not natural and the pot has gotten extremely potent with the grower's interference. Bottom line I don't condemn it.
I have, however, come to the conclusion that it has not been good for me. I have always been a shy guy but my pot usage has made that much worse almost to the point of shut in at times. It makes me put stuff off and be a major procrastinator. I don't think it ever affected my memory like I've heard it does to other people but how can I really judge what I don't know.
Three weeks ago I had a very sudden desire to make changes in my life. It came out of nowhere, nothing really induced it, it just happened. I decided I didn't want to smoke anymore. Ever since I became a webmaster and started working online the habit has gotten worse for me. At least when I worked outside of the house I never used to toke until after work allowing me to lead a half normal life at work.
So for the past three weeks I have not touched the stuff during daylight hours and now have it down to just one "bedtime toke". I'm really scared of my ability to sleep without it, sleeping was always a problem for me going back to when I was just a youngster and pot was a savior for that. I did make it through two nights in the past three weeks without touching the stuff at all but the sleeping was rough and I woke up pretty tired. I plan to cut it out completely but need to do it my own way at my own speed. The first few mornings during the first week I woke up inexplicably sad, almost to the point of tears, that has since passed thank goodness. The changes in me have been astronomical and everyone in my life has really noticed. I'm way more sociable and actually have a hard time staying home now and I find myself getting bored alot more often. So I go out even if it's just driving around the town or visiting my Mum. I find I'm still pretty intolerant of alot of things, but I always have been and that is something I intend to work on. Time has slowed down in a major way I find myself looking at the clock ten times a day, hopefully that too will pass, not that I want time to fly by but I need to get the time flow thing working again.
I am not one for taking vitamins and supplements - I do OK eating but I am taking salmon oil at the suggestion of a good friend who has been through the quitting pot saga. I drink half my weight in ounces of water every day now and I have noticed a huge change in my skin, digestion and other things. I never drank water before and now I find myself craving it. Don't let anyone tell you drinking water isn't a good thing. It definitely is. Anyway that's where I'm at right now. Cheers to a clear-headed future. I'll keep you posted how it goes.


A few of you have asked me how I keep in shape (at my age ) so I put together a little video of my daily routine, it's pretty bad but it does show my daily exercise routine. You can see it here.

Hope everyone is well and if anyone has any tips or wants to talk about pot usage please drop me an email. As always if you have any comments, complaints, suggestions or anything at all about the website I love hearing from you. Here's some more assorted pics from around the house from the past few weeks - some amazing colors in the garden.

September 19, 2007 - Lots of new stuff coming up this fall and I was particularily pleased to add Jake Cruise to the line up. Jake films and often participates in his videos and has become world renowned for his ability to find hot, often straight amateur guys. Some people like his personal interaction with the boys others don't. Check it out for yourself and let me know what you think. Stay tuned for more new additions in the next few weeks. The new full length Video Downloads seem to be a hit - you're sure gobbling them up and giving the servers a good workout on Sundays.

The US Open was truly entertaining this year. No rain like the washout that was Wimbledon this year and lots of close, memorable matches. Seeying Moya get so far was a highlight. Everyone is asking "Can anyone beat Roger Federer" and the short answer is no. Actually that's the long answer too. Nobody even came close except for young Novak Djokovic who had 7 set points against him in the first two sets and lost both in heart breaking tie breaks. Federer has an incredible knack of denying his opponent on the really important points, combine that with a little nervousness to close out sets by Novak and that was the story of the match. The fact he didn't collapse after those sets is another tribute to him. He will certainly be a force to reckon with in the future, my hunch is Federer might be passing the torch to him one day. Novak is such a likable guy too, did you see his imitations of other player's serves at the end of his semi finals match? They were just hilarious, he nailed Sharapova, Roddick and Nadal and had the crowd in stitches. You can search Djokovic on YouTube to see those performances. Justine Henin managed to beat both William sisters en route to winning the championship, a feat nobody has ever accomplished. I think Henin is in Serena's head now after the three straight quarterfinal losses but I really thought Venus would beat her. Henin is looking supreme on the courts right now and is breathtaking to watch. The power coming out of that little smurf is incredible. Since she divorced her husband earlier this year she seems so much more friendly, outgoing and happy - I'm actually starting to like her (just a bit ). That battle tank of a thing, Kusnetsova, who faced her in the finals really didn't put up much of a fight. Justine is starting to look like the female Federer. I must admit I'm a bit weary of tennis at this point. It was a great season but I'm glad it's over.

Well it certainly was a great summer. I'm still single and content with that for now. I find I get alot more lonely in the winter months than in the summer. I'm thinking of taking up some kind of winter sport this year for two reasons, to stay healthy and to stay sociable. I don't want to spend another winter hibernating which is what I tend to do. I might try and take a trip somewhere this year, I'm not a seasoned traveller, more of a home body, but I'm starting to get a bug to travel.

Here's some more assorted pics.

August 28, 2007 - Another summer coming to an end, man this one went by fast for me. I had a great summer fixing up and painting the outside of my house, working on changes to the website and meeting new friends. Campfires and canoeing were a couple of highlights for me, poison ivy a definite low point . The trees are starting to turn really early this year and the Canada geese are even starting to gather for their southward migration - might be an early winter this year. The site has had some facelifts over the summer as you've probably noticed. I tried to make the Video Downloads, Originals and the Selected Sets a little easier to browse with larger thumbs and more preview pics. The Video Downloads will feature one full length movie each week as opposed to mixed scenes from now on. There is also some new stuff on the horizon for September I always appreciate your feedback so please keep all the emails coming. All kinds of feedback are welcome - email me anytime.

This was a strange sight to me, I wasn't quite sure what to make of it... perhaps a UFO (to me anyway ). This jet came out of nowhere and the smoke trail just suddenly started mid air. It came up so fast in the weirdest arc I've ever seen, made no sound at all, even when right over head - telling me it was one big ass plane as it must of been way up there. Almost looks like a 767 with a package on it's belly. Payload?? I researched some Canadian military planes and couldn't find anything quite like it. Any aviation whiz's out there care to let me know what the heck it is??

The US Open just started this week, I haven't had a lot of time to tune in but my picks this go around are Serena Williams and Novak Djokovic - neither a heavy favorite but both definitely contenders. As I've said before I think in Serena's case if she wants to win it bad enough she can will herself to. I've been playing a little tennis this summer and man am I rusty. Quite the workout on the knees and ankles tennis is.

Speaking of work outs, I've approached mine with a new vigor lately. I've been steadliy increasing the weights I use, something I stopped doing years ago, and I am seeing some results already Getting older I sure realize the importance of stretching now. I make sure and stretch before and after working out. I can even touch my toes again - something I thought was long since a thing of my past. If you can't touch your toes here's three simple exercises which will make it easier to do.

1) Get down on all fours, hands in line with shoulders, knees in line with hips. I think this exercise is officially called a Camel Cat. Round your back by pushing it upward. Pause then push your lower back towards the floor like an arched position of a cat. Do that ten times. Try touching your toes. If it's still a no go....
2) Place your heels on a 2x4 or 25 lb weight. Maintaining the natural curve in your lower back, bend forward at your hips and reach toward your toes. Pause, stand up and repeat ten times. Try touching your toes now, if it's still a no go then do the same thing again but this time elevate your toes instead of your heel on the 2x4. Try touching your toes again, if it's still not possible...
3) While standing roll the bottom of your bare foot over a tennis ball. Work your entire sole over the ball for 60 seconds and repeat with your other foot.
I bet you can touch your toes now.

Well happy back to school or work for those lucky enough to have had some time off this summer. Here's some late summer pics of me, Bandit, the house and garden.

July 14, 2007 - The new Originals duo went over well. Vic and Erik are pretty sexy young guys and they made a really hot video together, we'll see more of those two in the weeks to come. If you missed them there's some preview pics and a 30 second preview clip below. Martin, the beefy young hunk to the right will be coming to the Originals soon as well. Here's a peek at Milan and Lukas who will be next week's coupling. There are some hot movies coming up for the Video Downloads including a personal fave of mine "Prague Sightseeing" so look for those over the next few weeks. The new help page will be up by Monday and feel free to contact us anytime if you have problems, feedback or suggestions.

Preview Clip

July 14, 2007 - It's been quite the week around here trying to get the damn colors for the outside of the house right. The week started out very frustrating but by the end we had finally found some colors we're satisfied with. My consulting group and I were all finally on the same page. Sometimes there were way too many cooks in the kitchen I think. So one side is basically done, I posted some pics at the link below. Now come sides 2, 3 and 4 of the neverending painting project.

Here's some new pics of the house painting and stuff.

July 7, 2007 - We missed an Originals update this week, sorry for that, but I think the wait will be worth it for the new stuff next week. There are some new video feeds coming this week which will feature really high quality streams of movies from exclusive studios not seen on other networks! Tylersroom currently boasts on site 680 videos in the Video Downloads, 90 exclusive videos and pic sets in the Originals and 160,000 pictures in the Selected Sets.

What a match Federer and Nadal just played in the Wimbledon finals. Wow. Federer won but Rafa pushed him to the edge, Roger was truly lost in the fourth set and I have never seen him unravel like that, true champions can pull themselves together and that he is and that he did in the fifth set. Nadal is getting closer and closer to Federer with every tournament it seems. I am quite pleased with myself I finally picked a Grand Slam winner, I don't get it right very often because I rarely choose the favorites. Venus Williams played like the Venus of old and smoked her way to the Championship in awesome form not unlike Serena did at the Australian Open a few months back. The William sisters are back with a vengeance this year. Novak Djokovic on the men's side impressed me the most this tournament, he is young and going to be a force to be reckoned with. He's just snuck his way into the top ten and is now ranked third in the world. He's really cute too, has a great personality and I love the way he takes off his shirt post match and throws it to the crowd a la soccer match. Not sure what the proper folk at the All England Club think about that.

The house painting came to a grinding halt on Friday when I decided I didn't like the new color scheme. Man was I in the doghouse haha. After several gallons of new colors we reached a consensus and will keep the main color but add a dark ochre to the windows to try and tone the overall look down. I was finding it a little jarring. Here's some pics of me conquering my newly acquired fear of heights, the painting progress and more garden pics.

July 2, 2007 - I hope everyone is enjoying their summer. The weather up here has been a bit funky, either boiling hot or unnaturally cool. Not very much rain though and things are starting to need it. Moving along with the outside painting of my place though, I'm finding it alot of work but I have good help. I used to paint for a living years ago but I don't recall it being as physical as I do now. Maybe I'm just not in as good shape as I was then but it is nice to do some physical work for a change. I also used to (bravely or stupidly haha) hang off the top of a 40 foot ladder by one leg without a second thought - now put me at the top of a 20 foot and I'm basically paralyzed. I've posted some pics of the progress at the end of this post and I'll be posting a before and after look when I'm done for anyone who is interested in that type of thing. Someone got a tattoo.


The Original's action duos that I promised are ready and we should see the first episode this Friday, next Friday at the latest. This is pretty hot stuff so I'm sure you'll be as pleased with it as I am. The new video download formats have gone over well. I have closed the forum as I want to focus all my energy on the main site again. The tone there had eroded from the cheery place it once was and the file sharing was becoming a major issue for me as well. It was a good run and I thank everyone who participated. There will be a new support/help page up shortly and Ryan, Jason and I are always here to provide support. You can contact us through the links on this page. I will be updating this blog more often now with site updates, personal pics and my usual rantings.


Wimbledon seemed to come really fast on the heels of the French Open this year, not a bad thing for us tennis fans though. The rain, however, has made the tournament a real drag to watch and is obviously starting to wear on the players, Rafa Nadal has been downright cranky which is unusual for him. They are almost four days behind schedule now. My picks for this one are Venus Williams and Nadal. Tall order for Nadal to beat Federer at Wimbledon but ya never know, surely he has to break out of clay at some point. Just watched Serena Williams play through and win with a nasty leg injury, watching it happen at the end of the second set was brutal. What a performance in grit and determination that was. Now she has another showdown with Justine Henin in the quarters. If the injury sticks then I can only imagine it will be lights out for her - Henin is playing really well. I don't like betting against Serena ever mind you, she says she's the best in the world when she's healthy and at this point I'm tending to agree with her. Could still have an all Williams Ladies finals. Andy Roddick sure is a hottie and is playing well with Jimmy Connors coaching, he has a good chance as well, although he will inevitably find a way to bottle it.


Here's some pics of the painting and garden the past couple of weeks.

A joke...
There is this costume party with the theme being emotions, you have to come dressed as an emotion. One guy shows up with a big heart costume on, the guy on the door asks what emotion he is and the guy says he is love. "Go ahead in" says the door guy. The next guy to walk up is dressed as a tooth. "What emotion do you represent?" the door guy asks. "Well, I'm pain" he replies. "Cute, go right in" says the door guy. Another guy approachs buck naked wearing nothing but a pear on his dick. Surprised the door guy asks "And just what emotion do you represent?" he replies "I'm fuckin' despair."

June 4, 2007 -

A few things I wanted to bring up regarding the site.

Starting soon the Original's updates will be mostly action episodes instead of just the solo we've had for the past while. Most of it has been arranged I just need a few weeks to get it flowing.

The Video Downloads will have an additional option of a HQ flash file to choose from. That should be ready for this Sunday's update.

Some might remember a few years back we were the guinea pigs for a new set of video feeds that were based on flash. It was really buggy back then and we soon abandoned them. Well I've heard from a couple of webmaster buddies that these are good feeds now. So I'm talking to them now - watch for that shortly. Maybe nothing in terms of super exclusive stuff but more variety is always a good thing.

I was also wondering if anyone would be interested in a story section? How about full novels you can download with covers and all? Not sure what the demand would be for something like this so I need feedback on that before I go ahead. Feel free to add your 2 cents to the thread I started in the forum.



Well that bites, that rotten Justine Henin (she divorced the Hardenne guy) beat Serena Williams at the French Open (I had Serena picked and Nadal on the men's side in my pool). Oh well, she played much better than Serena this time. Can't see anyone dethroning Henin now. Jankovic is playing well as is Sharapova (that girl is 6'4" now ) but I still think it's Justine's to lose.

I think the best match of the tournament thus far was Sharapova and the veteran Patty Schnyder in the round of 16. A three set cliff hanger with Sharapova fighting off numerous Schnyder match points before finally overcoming her 9-7 in the third. Talk about both women never giving up.

Tommy Robredo (handsome dude ) put up a good challenge in the quarters against Federer but it sure looks like he and Nadal are cruising towards a finals re-match.


I'm not very popular with the hockey fans around here (Ottawa Valley) as I've been cheering for the Anaheim Ducks since they knocked 'my' team (The Vancouver Canucks) out of the NHL playoffs. I always root for the team that beats my favorite team - I think it's better to be beaten by the eventual champs - sorta makes them like the runners up.

After surviving a first period blitz by Ottawa the Ducks completely took over last night in game 4 to take a 3-1 series stranglehold back to Anaheim for game 5. I have to admit I was almost hoping the Sens would win tonight so the series might go longer. Very entertaining series. At times it seemed Anaheim was so quick they made Ottawa look like the Old Timers league.

The Ducks are awesome - who knew so explosive and so much fun to watch. The score could have been 6-2 tonight but for the posts.

Ottawa has a great, talented team but they just seem stymied by the incredible Ducks defence, constant shoot-ins and tireless working of the boards. Not to mention the Ducks are winning way more face offs.

Did you see Don Cherry's debut on NBC? LOL not so good - he kept losing his voice.

Here's some pics I took around the garden the past couple of weeks.


Some personal stuff. My Dad and Mum divorced when I was 10. I was asked to choose who I wanted to live with. I really wanted to stay where my friends were in Deep River but my sister got to speak first and she chose Mum so I felt it was the right thing to do to choose Dad, his new wife, a new school and life in Pembroke (about 30 miles away). Anyway long story short, after bouncing back and forth a couple of times I was out on my own when I was 16.

I had an encounter with my Dad when I was 18 and was in my first year of college in another town. I had blown a big part of my student loan on my first ever car (was a wreck of a thing when I think back but I sure was pleased) and was back in Deep River visiting friends. Well I took my friends downtown to the confectionary most proud of my new wheels. On the way there we happened to pass my Dad and his wife out walking their dogs. Being young and I guess wanting to show Dad I was doing OK I honked as we passed them and we went around the block and went by honking again. They didn't acknowledge me and were walking very quickly at this point. Off we went to the store. As soon as we got what we wanted and went to drive home we were surrounded by the entire Deep River police force (3 cars - small town haha) the officer said he had a report of me reckless driving. He asked for my license which I gave him. He looked a little surprised and said do you know John, I said "Yes that's my Dad". He said "Oh geez OK we'll just go over there and straighten this out". I sat in the cop car for about 10 minutes while the cop was inside Dad's house talking. He came out looking a little off and said "I have to charge you with reckless driving, endangering life". I went to court and it was basically dismissed (Dad was a big player in town) but the judge told me I wasn't welcome in the town I grew up in.

Okay the short version isn't that short haha. Sorry for being a little personal, I am not looking for any kind of sympathy - I just need to talk about what happened yesterday.

So that's the last time I ever saw my Dad. The last time I ever spoke to him he was driving me back to Pembroke after trying to accomodate me when I was 14 and he said "Don't come back until you're a success and have a degree. I expect you'll be in jail. Maybe you should join the army".

So I fell out of touch with all family after I went out on my own at 16. As I've said before, when I got back in touch Dad had died a few years earlier, young at 56. I never felt any sorrow, never cried, nothing. I had a big blank spot there. Apprently my Dad was good at doing this too and unfortunately I take after him a little.

Yesterday, I got a surprise message from Helen, my Dad's wife, who really had tried hard to make the "new" family work way back then. I remember her kitchen table family meetings LOL "Tyler, you have such mean eyes" mean? no, more like blanking out not unlike the father. Helen went along with my Dad all those years later in blocking out my sister and I and I always wondered why. It wasn't her way, at least back then it wasn't. I was my Dad's way though at least I've always thought it was. Loyalty to Dad?

She wants to meet up with me. I just about dropped dead on the spot. She wants to meet with me 20 years later? Isn't she frightened I will be after my Dad's money? Tell me what a failure I am for being gay? Running an adult business? (Dad was a pioneer with computers at AECL). Cynical yes, for good reason, no. I never knew Helen to be anything but a nice woman.

Tonight it hit me like a tidal wave out of nowhere. I cried so much my head and chest ached. All these questions, possiblities that Helen might answer flooded my mind. OMG maybe I did love my Dad, is it possible to hold off grieving a death for 6 years?

I just freakin want to know why he wrote me off. I just kept asking that tonight "WHY?"

I think this might be one of the healthiest meetings of my whole life.

May 14, 2007 - Warm weather means guys in shorts with no shirts on. The weather has been beautiful here in Eastern Ontario for the past couple of weeks, all the bulbs are blooming, the grass is green and shirtless boys are starting to appear. . Ryan and Jason have really settled in now and are starting to come up with new ideas and ways to improve and add to the site. . We added a couple of new video feeds to the Elite series, what the Elite Series lacks in newer titles they make up for in high quality resolution. They just need to expand their library a little but with all the other options available around here they're a great extra for the site nonetheless. There is some new stuff coming up later this month. If you're not a member of my site check out all the daily updates offered on the What's New page. Never a dull day around here!

Back to the nice weather for a minute, as you might know from some of the picture galleries I've posted I live in a very old but large wooden farm house. Well a buddy and I have taken on the daunting task of scraping it down and repainting it. It has a ton of trim so the job is pretty big. The house has been blue for 25 years now and around town is actually refered to as the 'Blue House on the Hill' as it used to be a B&B, even a Tearoom once, well I guess I might be confusing the locals because it's going a totally new color scheme . A light sandstone type color with white trim and red and olive accents. So far we are 80% through a really good prep job (well I must be honest here my buddy is 70% through it, I'm maybe 10% through LOL), he's rebuilding the veranda as well. I've painted for a living in the past so I intend to kick into full gear when we start that part. I'll post some pics throughout the various stages on the forum and here.

Here's some pics I took around the garden and of the house prepping this week.

Well it's nice to see Daimler and Chrysler split, Daimler has been bleeding Chrysler dry for the past ten years. Too bad they still own 19%.
I wonder how Jeep will factor into this and the future of the SRT. From what I've read Jeep and Dodge will all stay under the Chrysler umbrella and the restructuring that was in place will continue.

Speaking of Dodge, the Challenger is back in 2008.
It is starting production in the fall (in Canada ) and will be on the ground in spring 2008. Dodge has stayed very true to the original muscle car in this new beauty. I might just trade in my Charger for one of these. The pre-hype on the Challenger is huge amongst Dodge enthusiasts - they might have a big hit on their hands. I have heard conflicting stories about whether it will be available as an R/T or an SRT8 or both. But Dodge has confirmed it will come in Plum Crazy color. *drools*

As I have written before I ditched my family when I was in my late teens and went about my own life. After no contact at all with my Mum for 15 years we got back in touch. Much had changed, my Dad had died, my sister was married (and divorced) with two amazing children and all four of my grandparents were gone. It was a major wake up call about the importance of family and time no matter how hard it can be. My Mum reluctantly moved back to Canada a couple of years ago (she had been looking after her parents until their deaths in Coventry, England) desiring to be near to her son and daughter. We are all living close by each other now and despite some typical family quarreling get along quite well now.

For Mother's Day my sister and I took my Mum out for lunch and shopping to a little town that she had been wanting to visit. It was a great day, I have never seen my Mum so happy and it rubbed off on both of us. Later in the day I got this email from my Mum and just melted into a pile on the floor. I am so happy I am living my life with my Mum a big part of it and I will never leave again.

"Just to say thanks again for such a lovely mother's day.  I had a really nice time (the best ever) having the two of you there together.  Thanks also for driving so kindly - it probably is hard to do in such a vehicle and I appreciate it. I enjoyed my lunch, love my shirt and the bedspread is perfect on my bed.  I have been looking for such a one for ages.  Thanks also for the tulips and the English looking kitty.  I think (she) most looks like Gracie so that will have to be her name. I never tell you this enough but you are my boy, my son and I love you."

Her boy.

Happy Mother's day Mum.


Take care all and enjoy spring!

April 11, 2007 - Well the big kitchen renovation is finally done. Way over budget and way over due but nonetheless it's done. I'm happy with it, it's especially nice at night very warm and inviting. Now it's time to learn how to cook I was grocery shopping with a buddy last week and he suggested I try cooking a pork roast - well for PB and J Tyler that is a pretty big leap. He assured me his recipe was dummy proof and simple. He told me to put the roast and some baby potatoes and carrots in a roasting type pan, fill it up with 1/2 cup of water and seasoning of my choice. I did all that but misheard the 'fill the pan with a half cup of water' for 'fill the pan half full of water'. Well needless to say the damn thing took 2 hours to cook (boil I should say) and it was just AWFUL. Waterlogged and tasteless. Even Bandit gave it a pass. . I've put that behind me though and am going to try again sometime. The final kitchen pictures are here.


My new website helpers, Ryan and Jason are working out really well. Super nice young guys who are becoming quite active in the forums and webcam chat. They've caught on quickly and will continue running the site as you have come to expect while I seek out new content and partnerships for us.

I guess it's true white guys can't dance.

Mar 22, 2007 - The amount of content on the site is getting crazy, the forums are very entertaining and our webcam chat has really picked up lately thanks to several outgoing guys I've been doing this alone for 7 years now and to be totally honest I'm really tired. I decided I wanted to keep it going over the past year as long as you want it so I have hired two young guys to take over the daily operations of the site. This will free me up to take a much needed holiday and do more of the stuff I enjoy doing like updating this blog and posting and catching up on the forum. The day to day, seven days a week, for all these years now has put me on empty. The guys who I am in the process of 'training' are great young lads who will make sure the site runs exactly as it does now. I will have more time to find and seek out new content and partnerships for new things to enhance the website as well. I will be introducing the guys on the forum shortly and I expect you to give them a healthy forum initiation (I'm working on thickening up their skin )

Thanks to everyone who wrote about my health - I'm doing great. I haven't had another bout of the vertigo and I'm working on eating better food.

Spring is in the air, I can't wait! After a particularily nasty beginning to March up here it has suddenly turned mild and the melt is on. I am looking forward to getting out with my camera and taking some more pictures. The pictures everyone shares in the Gallery on our forum are just amazing. Nature pics, travel pics, spontaneous pics, fun pics, self pics, memorabilia - you name it, it's there!

My seven month long kitchen project is finally coming to a close. I am really pleased with it, I'll post some pictures in a week or so. Till then, enjoy yourselves!

I will never take the Super Bee out in the snow again

I will never take the Super Bee out in the snow again



Mother nature is sure spanking us for having such a mild holiday season and fall. Plunged right into a major deep freeze We haven't got alot of snow at all though, maybe 8 inches total, unlike some parts of North America which have just been getting dumped on. Weird weather.
More pics rescueing the Bee

Jan 29, 2007 - I haven't been around much the past few days as I've been trying to stay on my feet.

Just after supper on Saturday I was struck with a nauseating case of vertigo like I've never felt before. My first reaction was "man, this is good pot" but soon enough I realized something not so good was happening. It went on quite severe for about an hour - at one point I held onto the bed like it was floating in the ocean - after that it subsided considerably but was still there if I moved. I decided bed and TV was the answer, I was a little worried (OK alot worried ) but I hate doctors and hospitals and I especially hate having my evening ruined.

I was awoken several times in the night by this distant motor starting up and turning off every 30 seconds or so. It was a new noise and at 4 AM I decided to go hunting for it not knowing if it was in the house or not. I noticed the vertigo but it was not as bad as earlier. I couldn't find the source of the damn noise anywhere and frustrated I stuffed some tissue into my ears to drown it out and went back to bed. Well I never made the connection between the dizziness and the motor sound but thinking back I guess I should of when it was still just as loud with the earplugs in

Sunday morning, I felt much better but still dizzy if turning quickly or raising my arms. I figured I'd give it 24 more hours and see if perhaps it was just some weird flu variation (it came on so suddenly, seemingly out of nowhere) and just put up with it. I went for Sunday dinner at Mum's and she suggested I give it until Monday (today) and then go in if it was still there. She then told me about a condition my father got when he was about the same age as me and all the symptoms seemed pretty similar although not being an alarmist she also thought I might just have a bug. She gave me her emergency bat phone to take home with me just in case.

Still dizzy this morning I very reluctantly went to see my Doctor, he almost immediately diagnosed it as Meniere's Disease (what my father had had). An ear fluid problem that affects one's balance and can cause weird sounds in the ears and eventually hearing loss (not total but some ranges) unless treated. He is doing some blood tests and I have a brain scan on Wednesday just to be sure it's not a cerebral hemmorage (don't like the sound of that one ) but he's 99% it isn't that as I don't have neck pain and headaches which are other symptoms of that.

Only the first bout of Meniere lasts longer than 24 hours and a lingering feeling of motion sickness can last for several days after the attack - that is definately where I'm at now. It's a real nuisance as I love to rock and well you get the picture. I'd rather have the most painful injury than this kind of thing, it's a really nasty feeling.

I wish they hadn't called it Meniere's Disease, I don't like that word, disease. Why not Meniere's Syndrome or Meniere's Revenge - something kewl sounding.

So sorry for the rambling but I do hope it is this Meniere's thing as that is quite manageable. I had basically prepared my funeral on Saturday night I decided I want to be buried in the back yard in my Super Bee. Mom was not too pleased to hear that.

Jan 20, 2007 - Wow, an absolute shellacking at the Australian Open. Serena Williams was jaw droppingly good in the Aussie Open final, she absolutely decimated the world's new #1 Maria Sharapova. I don't think she'll hold that title for long as a matter of fact after seeing Serena play like this I'd say she is back with a vengeance. She says she's not even fit right now and intends to work on that - must make the other gals on the tour shudder. Maybe she will have a chance at the true Grand Slam this year, when she plays like this she is one of the sport's rare real superstars. Granted, Sharapova's serve failed her but I don't think there is anyone on this planet who could have beaten Serena tonight. Steffi was still at her prime at Serena's age... way to go Serena.

Jan 14, 2007 - I hope everyone had a good holiday season! I did but happy it's over and now it's back to work. I've been spending the first few weeks of the new year cleaning my place and catching up on webwork. We officially had a green Christmas, this pic was taken out back on the 25th. Crazy stuff, first one I remember around these parts. No new years resolutiuons on my part although I'd love to meet a partner this year. Someone special ya know. I know trying too hard doesn't work but I'm still hopeful.

Things are going to get ever better at Tylers Room. I have some stuff in the works plus the upcoming new Original models are some of the hottest ever. You can check some of them out here

I just don't get it. What will sending more troops accomplish? Training an army which fights against itself? Taking over and securing areas for one side, the Iraqi government? whose side? Or is it a long term commitment, wrapped up in a puppet Iraqi government, to control that country. Global positioning like a Risk game? Gets me that the Bush admin boys seem impatient with a US backed government of a complex nation just recently destroyed to get on with it and take control. In my eyes either the US slowly pulls out (or should I say redeploys) and a new dictator type takes power to control the sectarianism or the US army fully moves in for good. I'd love to look at the toilet bowl as half full but with this particular region/conflict I can't.
Let's hope the newly elected US Congress and Senate can do something to stop this without harming any of the guys fighting over there.

OMG I just watched two pre-releases live from the upcoming new Sinéad O'Connor album 'Theology' WOW
I am sooo excited, this sounds like vintage Sinéad, she's shaved her head again, has an edge to her voice, has a few crowfeet now which suit her lovely face just fine and the two new songs I heard are awesome.
9 of the 12 tracks will be her own writing woot - been a long while and three covers including two I can't wait to hear - Andrew Lloyd Webber & Tim Rice’s ‘I Don’t Know How To Love Him’ and traditional (Boney M to me ) ‘Rivers Of Babylon’, with new lyrics added by Sinéad.
The buzz is she is gonna be back with a vengeance from what I heard this evening I concur.

My kitchen reno is WAY behind schedule. . But the center island just went in and I can finally see a light at the end of tunnel. I'll update that thread of pictures shortly and hopefully for the LAST time soon. Take care buds.

Dec 20, 2006 - Woohoo! I just finished my Christmas shopping. Didn't take me too long, I found a nice package of envelopes at Staples and the line up at the bank machine wasn't too long.

If you've read here before you'll know I have been having my kitchen renovated and it was supposed to be all done and smart for Christmas dinner at Tylers. Well it's nowhere near done the current state of events has been updated in the kitchen reno page. I had to cancel dinner and now I've had a falling out with my Mum over it, my sister is mad at me and well it's a holly happy joy of a time. I'm having some forum mates over instead.

We have some snow though and that's a good thing. I love snowballs, snowforts and I even don't mind shovelling for the first couple of months. Here's some snow pics.

I couldn't drive the Super Bee in the winter it handles about as well on the snow as a toboggan so I stored it for the winter and maxed out my credit completely getting a Jeep for the winter. Now I have two cars and no money for gasoline. The Jeep is another fast one though. Here's a video my buddy and I made.

There are now currenly 514 video downloads, 57 originals vids and sets and 133,000 pictures in the Selected Sets. Not to mention almost all feeds and offsite content available on the net. Is there room to grow? Damn right. I have some new reality type sites to add to Tylersroom over the next few weeks.

Happy season to all from me and Bandit.

Nov 29, 2006 - We got our first snow today, I doubt it will stay but it's nice to see . I can't wait to start working on my snow fort this year (we're supoosed to get a pile of snow this season) I'm bound and determined to make it a two story fort this year . The site is humming along well, membership is growing, content is growing and the forum community is getting more interactive all the time. Watch for some hot new additions this month.

So the US elections are in a few days. Looks like the Democrats are going to win the Congress, maybe even the slightest majority in the Senate. There are some fascinating races in Missouri, Virginia and Tennessee. Happy to see Santorum go in Pennysylvania, I never liked him. The use of "negative ads" is rampant in the US elections - why is that? Such dirty politics and it seems to get worse every year, spew whatever lies you want about your opponent. Here's my prediction in the House it will be a bit of a Democratic romp and they will pick up 30 plus seats, 241 Dem 194 Rep. In the Senate - 50 Republicans, 48 Democrats and 2 Independents (who caucus with the Dems). Cheney would hold the deciding vote if it works out like this. Whatever happens I think Bush is in for a rough final two years of his um Presidency (cough). Next up Obama??

So I went to the Chrysler dealership today to check out some pick up trucks. My poor old Jeep isn't doing so well and I don't know if she'll make another winter.
Well I walked out the proud owner of a brand new 2007 Super Bee
I'm really excited about it. My first ever new car and what a freaking car A 450 horse power , 6.1L Hemi, SRT rework of the Charger. Here's some pics.

Oct 28, 2006 - I just saw a Christmas commercial on TV.
OK it really IS getting earlier every year.


I have been having a lot of fun taking pictures the past few months. Anyone can be a pro these days with the great digital cams out there. It gets a bit addictive, to the point where I'm thinking 'Hmmm maybe I better bring the camera, something might happen on the way to the grocery store.' Starting to look like a tourist in my own town. Here's some pics I took of Golden Lake, a nice spot about 45 minutes from my place and here's some assorted pics.

The site is going well, lots of new members and so much content now I don't recognize some of the older stuff myself. I'd like to take this moment to thank all the members once again for all the terrific word of mouth advertising you do for me. Don't forget to email me with comments, complaints, suggestions, sexy pics of yerself etc. All correspondence is always welcome!

Oct 16, 2006 -

Some of you probably know I have been spending the past two years redecorating my house and trying to make it feel more like me and less countryish.

Well most of it was just that, redecorating, pretty easy stuff. I'm pretty satisfied with the house now except for the kitchen. And to fix this is not just a redecorating job It's an old plain country kitchen with big ugly appliances meant to serve for a B&B. It's dark and gloomy and the fridge is so loud it sounds like there's a helicopter landing in the kitchen when the compressor kicks in.

Anyway, the time has come and I've embarked on a pretty big remodeling job. I'm not doing it myself but I intend to help out and learn as much as I can. Windows and doors are getting moved etc so it's way beyond me. Some of you that visited wanted me to share pics of the progress so I thought I'd share it for anyone who likes this sort of thing.

The first group of pics is basically how it looked on day one. Some of the drawers are gone and it's emptied so it looks barer than it actually was.

Some of the pics are similar angles I just wanted to get as many as possible for the before, during and after effect. I'm going to keep adding pics until it's completely done. Kitchen Renovation

Sept 17, 2006 - Summer is over, it has turned dramatically cooler already and the trees are starting to turn already. I think we're in for a long winter.
Lots of 9-11 coverage yesterday, was sad to see it all again but good to remind us I guess.
The US Open was excellent this year, again Federer was unbeatable, but I had Roddick in my pool so I was happy he was the finalist. Maria Sharapova played about the best match I've seen in years to dispatch Henin-Hardenne. Good stuff. Agassi is such a sweet guy and it was sad to see him retire.
My labor day weekend was very special. I had a house full of wonderful, genuine people. All members of the site and active forum members! I have never laughed so hard in years, maybe ever (Rox pass the damn wrinkle cream ). They've all gone home now and I must say I feel a little empty... actually a whole lot empty.
To all my visitors I hope you consider me a friend because I sure do of everyone of you.
Thank you AJ, Bucko, Carl, Gail, Karen and Scott (he was pacing himself ) for coming to the party and making it all the much better.
And thank you LaRoux, Navy, Ottawaian, Roamer and Scarbie for making my whole weekend something I'll never forget.

There are pictures posted on the forum.

Aug 29, 2006 - Well summers winding down, it's been a really hectic one for me so I'm looking forward to things slowing down a bit.
Tried a new fast loading text- based version of the site last week, it don't go over so well Some really like it so it's nice to have it as an option. At least I didn't completely waste my time. You can see it here. I also made wide versions (1000px) of both pages and those have gone over really well. More than 70% of you use the wider page. I still introduce the site to new surfers with the narrow (800px) version so nobody has to horizontally scroll and has the option.
Wide Gay College Parties was added last week and has instantly become one of Tylersroom's most visited links. I've also started adding duos to the Originals by request .
Took at trip to see Les Chutes Coulonge (Rapids) in Quebec, what a magnificent place. It's not that far from where I live so I've been when I was a kid, teenager actually - it was THE spot for drunken teen tent parties They've made it all very touristy now and you can't just go where you want which takes a little of the adventure away. It's OK though cause it is certainly safer and you do get to some spots that were inacessible before. Here's some pics. It sure has been an up and down summer weather wise, very good growing season though. Here's some pics from this summer. Summer '06

July 19, 2006 - Any tennis fans? Wimbledon was great this year. I am not a big fan of Justine Henin-Hardenne so it was nice to see her beaten by a very deserving Amelie Mauresmo. I wished Hingis had gone a little further and I bet on Venus so I wasn't pleased to see her exit either. But good on Amelie, she put some of her demons to bed.
On the men's side I bet on Rafael Nadal (what a freakin' hunk) who seemed like a bit of a grass long shot at the onset but he proved he will be a contender on all surfaces not just clay. Roger Federer was nearly perfect the entire tournament (predictably boring but a delight to watch) he only dropped one set in the finals to the seemingly infatigable Nadal. Those two men seem to be in a league of their own now and I see a great tough rivalry between the two for the next few years. Nadal is a real class act for such a young guy and Federer was gracious as he always is. Good tennis.
This has been a weird summer around here for weather, either unseasonably chilly or melting hot. Lots of rain though so it has been an amazing year for gardening (my other hobby ) Here's some pics around the garden. Summer '06 Hope you're all having a great summer!!

June 11, 2006 - So I took my first trip to the big city in ten years this past weekend. I went with a couple of friends I met through the forum. The $300+ speeding ticket my friend got after being on the road only an hour should have been warning enough of what was to come . I enjoyed the drive down immensely, looking at all the beautiful scenery and interesting farms and houses. As we approached Toronto I got the same rush of adrenaline I used to get when I was kid going to the city. That was kewl. I lived in Toronto for several years in my early twenties so it was mostly familiar, lots of new growth and buildings however. We cruised down Church street (the gay hub) on the way to our hotel and it looked very much the same as I remembered it. The store I used to work at was still there as most everything was.
Then came the hotel, the Days Inn downtown for anyone who wants to know a place NOT to stay. The room was so tiny it felt like a jail cell. The view was a high rise, the HS internet didn't work and the clerk kept giving me the wrong keys. The elevators were crazy busy, the lobby was like a sardine can and it was really noisy. I really felt sort of surrounded and uneasy. I hung out in my cell for a couple of hours while my friend reemed out the staff over the non-working internet as both of us rely on that for our jobs. They said they would fix it. Indeed they did just before checkout time
So, we met up with some Torontonian mates and went out for dinner, that was good, but once again I found it very loud. From there we went to a strip club and wouldn't you know my friends sat us right in front of the stage. I almost died I prefer to be a fly on the wall at these type of venues. Other than getting locked out later it went OK there. Lotsa eye candy
Probably the strangest thing to happen was on Saturday night at about 2 in the morning, I was coming into the hotel after another night at the clubs. There was this really sexy Greek looking guy standing in a rather provocative pose by the payphone. I went up to my room but my curiousity and slight tipsiness got the best of me and I went back down to the lobby, he was still there. He was wearing really low cut jeans and a tight blue T-shirt. He kept showing half his butt by discreetly pulling up his shirt I walked out of the hotel and around the block determined to get up the nerve to talk to him. I walked back in and of course went straight up to my room again - I'm such a chicken. Well I figured third time lucky (threw back another beer ) and went down again. This time I sat in a lounge chair nearby, when I was certain he was interested, I decided one more walk around the block and then I'd ask him up to my room. I get back to the hotel and what do you know he is surrounded by ten members of the SWAT team in full garb with guns drawn. I sheepishly walked by towards the elevator, I caught his eye and he looked terrified. I heard them asking him if he could speak english and he kept shaking his head. There had been a big terrorist plot foiled in the city that weekend and it was all over the news so I think they thought this poor guy was a terrorist scoping out the hotel. Maybe he was. I don't think so though, unless he was a cruising terrorist.
Anyway the way the weekend had been going I'm really surprised I hadn't got him up to my room before the SWAT team broke down my door and arrested me for abetting a terrorist The ride home was fun and I looked forward almost the entire way to seeing my doggie again. Toronto hasn't changed much in ten years but I sure have. Gone is any trace of city boy, I won't take my country life for granted ever again. PS I'm going skydiving soon - - stay tuned.

June 8, 2006 - This global warming stuff is really terrifying. Regardless of what all the oil barons who run the world say, CO2 levels are at never seen before levels. The most respected climate scientists have added up CO2 levels and drought indeces and reached the conclusion that most of the US west will be dry as a bone in 20 years. Can you fathom the California fires then? I grew up in and now live back in eastern Canada and I can't believe how much hotter the summers are now. Everything seems to dry up to a crisp by July.
For my country to join the US and pull out of Kyoto just demonstrates the environmental illiteracy of our leaders.
A great quote on our dependency on fossil fuels, Kurt Vonnegut, humanist, said "And like so many addicts efforts to face cold turkey our leaders are now committing violent crimes to get what little is left of what we're hooked on."
Don't they read history? Don't they know of the Mayans?

May 27, 2006 -
I found a little spot beside my toolshed that was totally private from the farm next door and the road out front. I got undressed and wandered around a bit before lying in the sun.

I have never been buck naked outside and man did it feel neat. Made me a little horny - not sure I'd be allowed into a nudist camp

I have skin that has never seen the light of day, well it has now and some of it's a little red now

Was fun though, I think I'll do it again. There might be some intrigue in doing it somewhere where there's a danger of being caught.

Anyone else share my new interest??

May 18, 2006 - When it rains it pours, my cat of 18 years, Sebastian, died this morning.

While I was sitting in my chair watching TV tonight I looked and saw a cat looking right into the kitchen through a glass door. I jumped up, I thought it was Sebastian. I ran through the kitchen to the door and it was the orange farm cat from next door. He was the one coming in and eating the food I was leaving out in vain, I waved at him and smiled. I then fell to my knees and bawled my eyes out.

My Sebati boy is gone.

My bad puppy has left me with a load of guilt that the last year of Sebati's life was lived in fear and abandonment.

I can't believe how everything familiar to me is just evaporating right now. I guess things are meant to change in a hurry.

Sebastian went through it all with me for the past 18 years and was an above average cat. I'll be adding another tree to my property shortly.

I hope he died peacefully soaking in the sun, smelling the fresh air, listening to the birds and dreaming of the hunt once again.

Love you Bo-bat.

May 6, 2006 - They met through a mutual acquaintance at the shop where he worked. Fireworks went off for him and a heated, passionate affair followed. He was sure this was his soul mate. They moved out west together and the romance disappeared almost as fast as it started. That was OK, they worked it through and lived as friends quite comfortably. The soul mate he thought he had met ended up being very possessive and jealous of him. The lack of intimacy in their relationship added fuel to those feelings. This guy did all his shopping for him, even clothes shopping, and he did the cleaning and home chores.

As the years passed he started to become isolated and lonely. Living in a bubble was convenient, it prevented any conflicts but it also allowed a lack of self esteem to fester. He tried to meet friends, one girl in particular with young children was destined to become a great friend. They got along so well, he doted on her kids and she helped him with his new business. This didn't last long, he was soon asked to choose between his closed yet safe and sheltered life or this beautiful new friendship. Fear led him to opt for the safety of his bubble. He got used to not doing outside stuff for himself and resigned himself to it, he even let his driver's license expire. He decided he was scared of flying, this was a good way to close the door on ever traveling. His friend had sex partners outside of the house, he was allowed to do the same supposedly but of course he really wasn't. So he decided maybe he was just asexual, yes that was it. Now everything was perfectly in place. But the sadness grew. Alcohol became a friend.

As the years were passing he had been building himself a successful home business. Feeling a little more empowered he suggested moving back to where they had started from all those years before. His friend was very reluctant surely feeling the bubble might be tested. He won out though, money sometimes speaks volumes. So they moved back home. He started to get to know his family again, his friend caused all sorts of issues eventually threatening the choice of family or him but he was gaining a support network. Sensing losing the battle, his friend conceded and tried to make good with the family.

He bought himself a house, his first independent move in almost ten years. He could feel the cage door opening, he could taste the freedom he longed for. He started treating his friend poorly and it ripped him up inside, he wasn't a bad person yet he couldn't help it. New friends and family noticed a dramatic change in body language every time his friend entered the room. The end was near. No more closing the wound and hiding the scar. A few weeks ago he asked his friend to leave for the final time. He couldn't be caged on his friend's shelf anymore, he needed to be him first by himself. He needed to nurture new friendships without restrictions. His friend knew it was time, there was no point in continuing.

He'll care about his friend forever and hopes his friend will stop being hurt and mad and realize that the co-dependency was not a healthy part of either of their lives. He waited until his friend was standing on his own two feet and having success with a new career. He feels a little mad at himself for letting it go on so long but doesn't feel the years were wasted. His path took him there for one reason or another.

After his friend finally left, he was sad but full of anticipation for the next part of his journey through life. Freedom to do as he chooses is intoxicating for him. He's getting his driver's license back, planning to fly to Britain for a weekend and having a night out in the city with a new friend soon. He's scared shitless of life but ready to embrace it fully and take the ride wherever it might take him.

Man am I glad to be home.

April 22, 2006 - I met you in '95 when we were still pretty much kids. You were my saviour and the love of my life. Running away to British Columbia for our grand adventure was one of the best decisions of my life. We had such ups and downs but man did we rely on each other. From Chilliwack to Nanaimo we went through it all together, all the growing pains of two young men. From growing pot, working in restaurants and on cow farms to both having successful businesses, from being so juiced about starting a painting business together to visiting Sally Ann for dinner in Vancouver when we were down and out, we did those years together.

You mustn't think you failed me, you were my winner in every race. It's just time for me to discover who I am and I know you know me that. I'll always have your back J. No one else can have the part of me I gave to you.

YLT

April 17, 2006 - I am one upset puppy. My little guy has taken a sudden, alarming, nasty turn and I don't know why or what to do about it.

He has always been aggressive but in a friendly alpha male kinda way. Now, twice in three days, he's showed real aggression towards people.

First the carpenter who was here hanging some doors for me. He was chatting away with Gail and I and I looked down and noticed Bandit's snout was wrinkling up. I bent down and sort of inconspicuously clutched his collar and held him. I felt him trembling so I hurried him off to the kitchen.

Today, I took him and another dog I look after, Dixie, out for a truck ride. I stopped to get gas and this very intense, in your face young guy pumping gas was chatting me up through my window. I asked to fill it as it was on empty ($80 freaking bucks ) well Bandit came up between the seats and for the first time ever I heard him growl, he wrinkled his snout and lunged over my shoulder. I pushed him back and he then took after Dixie. Thank goodness my friend Gail was there or I swear he would have killed her. He had such a weird glazed look in his eyes and they were fixed intently on Dixie who was crouching at Gail's knees in the front seat until I got home as fast as I could.

I can't believe I have a vicious dog. I'm so peaceful, it can't be me. I do nothing but love him. The sudden change is alarming, I can't bear to have another dog put down, especially this way. But my Mom has put the fear of god into me tonight by telling me that even if a burglar broke in and got bit by Bandit I could be sued and/or put in jail. I adore dogs, and obviously have fallen for Bandit and this is such a scary situation. I can't put him up for adoption cause I know they'll just put him down.

Anyway, I'm going to seek help tomorrow. I feel nervous of my own dog and that can't be.

April 8, 2006 - Now, my good friend has moved out and I'm totally alone in this big house

It's OK as it's different this year, I have plans to travel and meet friends with a new vigor. Maybe even reclaim some old friendships. I've been a bird captured in a cage - now I'm free.

My self esteem is growing and I am looking at life anew. I'm not a kid anymore... but I am excited about life again.

April 2, 2006 - Flashbacks... Skipping swimming lessons all summer long, hiding in the woods, saying I went and then nearly drowning on parent's view day.

Four feet tall, rescuing my very heavy cat during a major thunderstorm and downpour. Ungrateful thing scratched my eye out, literally hooked his claw in my eyeball, I just held it there and ran... into the corner of my neighbours partly open steel garage door. Came home looking like a horror flick casualty. Many stitches,and being made fun of cause of the eyepatch later, I cut the cat's whiskers off.

Being locked in the garage on Saturday mornings with my sister so my parents could sleep in.

Flying overseas without parents, getting a special "Unattended" badge and riding with the pilot some of the way.

Eating almost 2 dozen donuts after smoking up for the first time.

Drinking half a vinegar bottle full of straight rum that a buddy snuck out of his parents house, first drink ever, lasted about 5 minutes in consciousness, then woke up a day and a half later naked in a cold bath with every piece of tupperware in the house in the bath with me. I've never drank hard liquor since.

My first beer experience, feeling really cool, being a guest at my big sister's party with all her much cooler than mine friends, only to get hammered and proceed to go around the room knocking peoples beers on the floor with a broomstick. They locked me outside and I proceeded to hit their cars with the broomstick. I think I got beat up.

Changing schools so many times, and parents for that matter that I never made alot of friends.

Being a playground leader and an avid boy scout.

Not being allowed to go out for halloween after I was 8. Too old according to the dad. All the other kids went. To rub salt in the wound "I was now old enough to hand the goods out".

*gets up off couch*

March 27, 2006 - Well spring has certainly sprung around here. It is a sloppy mess outside, I've spent quite a bit of time today spreading snowbanks around trying to hurry it up . I sat on the veranda for an hour doing a crossword and have my first tan of the year woot!

The webcam chat on this site has sure picked up. I think there is more hot amateur action in there than on any of the actual cam feeds! There is a regular bunch of us there almost on a nightly basis.

Woohoo, my bedroom is finally finished after three months of renovating No more granny style, I think it looks really nice and masculine. The room looks way bigger too as I took the faux wall of closets out and restored the original chimney closet. My fave part is the floor, it's brand new hardwood maple... I've never owned a new floor

January 24, 2006 - Do I have a future as an election predictor?

My prediction:

CPC: 119
Liberal: 103
NDP: 29
Bloq: 56
Ind: 1

Ipsos Reid:

CPC 149
Liberal: 72
NDP: 30
Bloq: 57

RESULT:

CPC: 124
Liberal: 103
NDP: 29
Bloq: 51
Ind: 1



Great result, our Liberal leader resigned with amazing grace and left his party in strong opposition. Resigning now, was honorable and good for the party, their leadership convention will steal the spotlight and renew the party.

Best part of a bittersweet night for me... Belinda got re-elected in Newmarket Aurora - biggest and best surprise of the night for me. Scott Brison made it, Hedy trounced Svend and Tina Keeper won in Manitoba too.

Otta your NDP guy made it.

The nasty bible thumper Cheryl Gallant from my riding won despite all my efforts to rig the polls.

With this result, Harper will have a really hard time getting anything too radical accomplished. If he sticks to a moderate postion, we'll support him and give him a chance. Try anything funny and Michael, Belinda or maybe Scott will send him packing in a couple of years.l

Govern yourselves accordingly.

Thank goodness for checks and balances and in Prime Minister Harper's words "God bless Canada"

OK, it's midnight and the election is tomorrow - I want to revise my prediction...

First prediction:
CPC: 126
Liberal: 95
NDP: 29
Bloq: 57
Ind: 1


Last prediction (election eve):
CPC: 119
Liberal: 103
NDP: 29
Bloq: 56
Ind: 1

Undecideds are breaking Liberal again. Otta, your riding is going NDP again I think. Broadbent's legacy and Dewar's family status will push him over the top.

Churchhill (Manitoba) is one that could flip Libaral or NDP still, polling in Northern Manitoba is shaky at best, Liberal, former aboriginal TV star, Tina Keeper should get it.

Another shaky one is Tobique-Mactaquac (New Brunswick), Liberal incumbent Andy Savoy should get through but not certain at all.

The pundits say BC will decide it this time... I don't think so, if Prince Edward Island stays Liberal red (our colors are opposite from you guys in the States - GWB would be blue up here) and there is no change in New Brunswick, NFLD and Nova Scotia then it will be close to what I projected, Liberals and NDP can split Vancouver and Island however they want it won't affect the outcome.

I do believe Harper will win and become PM, Martin will likely have to ride off into the sunset, replaced by maybe Ignatieff or Mahoney - dammit I wish Belinda would win her seat - she would be in the running too. I don't think Harper will have a strong mandate. A tiny minority, he will not get his radical right agenda through.

Summer election 2007 anyone?

January20, 2006 WARNING: Canadian politics - likely to bore the hell out of you if you don't live here and even if you do for that matter.

Well, we are three days away from our second National election in two years. This time, however, we are apparently about to turf our fiscally responsible (yet corrupt, scream the opposition) Liberal government for a new Conservative government. Somehow Canadians have forgotten that this is not the Progressive Conservative (PC) party of old this is a coalition (CPC) of a few remnants of that party and the western based Reform/Alliance party.

The CPC's leader Steven Harper is an extreme right winger pretending to be middle of the road and muzzling all his candidates with radical views, including the bible thumping candidate Cheryl Gallant from my riding. I'll vote NDP like I always do but this riding is as safe a Conservative seat as Ontario has to offer. The area is like a throwback to the early 1900's, in a constant state of decay and Gallant continues to do nothing for this area. I moved from a solidly NDP riding in Nanaimo, BC so having this woman as my representative is repugnant. I think I'll run against her next time.

Harper makes his platform appealing, there are juicy fiscal tidbits in there that would benefit me tremendously. But I can't accept his views on abortion, gay rights, kyoto etc He is like a Bushlet in the making. He was on a town hall type show last night and somebody asked him if he would fritter away our good standing and run a deficit, he of course answered no. Then the moderator pushed him further and asked him if there were any circumstances he could see running a deficit... he said "If we go to war" What??? Bahahahahaha

Things were looking like a CPC majority last week but thank goodness there is a substantial amount of undecideds moving to the "Stop Harper" side this week and all polls show a minority for them now. To me the magic number is 122, they need to be held to 122 seats or less not that I think they will at this point . That way the NDP and Liberals will have more seats combined than the CPC. The Bloq aside this will help in reeling Harper in.

What possible PM assures people that if elected he can't get out of control because the civil service and courts are mostly Liberal. Assuring checks and balances on himself.

My prediction for the 308 seats:

CPC: 126
Liberal: 95
NDP: 29
Bloq: 57
Ind: 1

Interesting races...

Trinity Spadina (Toronto) - Looks like Olivia Chow (NDP leader Jack Layton's wife) might squeak by this time. Liberal Ianno might get swept away by the CPC rise and vote split. Was within 1000 vote margin Liberal last time.

Vancouver Centre - I love Hedy Fry - she's so over the top. She does a good job representing her constituents though. Thieving gay activist Svend Robinson is running here for the NDP and the CPC candidate is strong. It will be a three way horse race but I think Hedy will win it again.

Edmonton Center - They call her "Landslide Annie" because she continually wins this seat for the Liberals in an otherwise completely conservative/reform/alliance province. Some say she gets her good cablinet posts because she is the token Alberta Liberal, I've watched her for years and it's not the case. She's hard working, honest and extremely bright. Sadly, I think her luck will run out on Monday - I think this one will give the CPC an Alberta sweep.

Newmarket Aurora (Ontario) - Floor walker and spoilt rich girl Belinda Stronach is going to lose this seat. Bill Clinton can't even help her this time. She's proved herself an undesirable opportunist. Pity though, she's a babe, and it's fun watching the Senators fall over themselves trying to get a picture with her.

Kings Hants (Nova Scotia) - Scott Brison should hold this seat for the Liberals. A lifelong Tory, he walked the floor too, but for much more honorable reasons than Stronach. It will be a nail biter though.

I could go on but I'm sure there is nobody reading at this point

I had a traumatic morning, Bandit got hit by a pickup truck, robust little fellow flew a few feet through the air and ran home. He's been hard to reconcile since. He's got some cuts and I'm sure some bruises but nothing serious appears to be wrong except he's terrified. He won't go near the doors, won't go outside and insists on being under the coffee table. I didn't actually see it, he crossed the highway in front of my house to visit with a woman who looked exactly like Karen (same hat as she wears) and by the time I got there the truck driver and her were looking in the ditches, they didn't realize he'd run home. The woman felt so bad and she kept saying "he came to see me" I told her it was in no way her fault. She said the collision made a huge thud and was not convinced Bandit could have survived so she came up to the house and indeed made a positive ID. She seemed relieved and amazed but suggested I watch him closely for a few hours. I am watching him closely and I'll take him to the vet if he appears to be hurt worse. Right now he's just frightened. I think the worst part might be he will no longer be allowed loose on the property Hopefully the rest of the day will be better.

A letter I posted on our forum to some of my members on the fifth anniversary of my site...

And that's the top thirty by most posts, I could look further I'm sure and find many more who have contributed greatly and are friends but I had to stop somewhere and didn't look at the next page so please noone be offended. A big thanks to everyone who ever posted here.


My site is 5 years old on November 12. It's been a blast but I'm giving it up.






Just kidding, I love this job!!



I have enjoyed finding what I thought was the best stuff, charging as little as I could and building a family. I don't advertise much as alot of you know, it's never been about "business" to me. I get alot of other webmasters asking me "How do you have such a big member base with such little "presence". It's you guys, I am a real guy who doesn't consider anonymity a way of business online, and you guys spread the word. This site is a classic example of word of mouth and for that I am so grateful. My biggest pride is I've earned your trust in a not so trustworthy environment.

I turned on my first computer in August 2000, before that I was one of these "you'll never catch me with a computer and Big Brother in my living room types", by November 2000 I had a home page called "Tyler's Room" where I broadcast my webcam, the rest is my history.

July 22 2005 -One year since Blackie died. One broken heart. One candle burning brightly. One new puppy. One freshly planted tree. One million memories of my baby. Time has healed me but I am still sad. My baby has been gone for a year now.

Don't know if any of you guys know what's going on in the US or care for that matter. But the DOJ (Department of Justice) under the guidance of the conservative religious right is carrying out Bush's threat of spending his political capital to pay back the people who put him back in the WH. They have turned our industry upside down with proposed changes to some record keeping regulations otherwise known as Title 2257 of the USC Criminal Code. In an attempt to harm this industry (this age old industry that will never go away ) they have set a deadline of June 23 for compliance with these unreasonable amendments. I'm not going to get into a discussion about it here for you guys, it's likely not interesting to many of you BUT it already affects even you guys in a couple of early ways... FALCON, BACKYARD TWINKS and STEEL SHAFT will permanently go offline on June 20, so get your fill now. I'm working with a new set of non-US producers to find some cool replacements. These companies do not want to jeopardize the privacy of their models which this amendment calls for. DON'T GET ME WRONG, there is nothing non-compliant or illegal about my site anyway, but they are imposing an unecessary burden on "secondary producers". I however am CANADIAN and these ridiculous laws can't be enforced on me. I do choose to comply on behalf of the US businesses I deal with though and cause I CAN. There are gonna be some effects if this actually comes to fruition though. The FSC (Free Speech Coalition), of whom I am a paying member, has filed numerous injunctions based on Sundance vs Reno and expect at worst a delay. AGAIN, I'm not, nor are the companies I work with trying to hide anything or impede any efforts to clean up c*p* but this legislation is designed to go after the adult industry as a whole in a non constructive, whichhunt type way. Rant over. Get your fill of Falcon now I'll keep you posted of any further developements impacting Tylersroom. No stem cell research, now even aids patients with diminishing syndrome can't use marijuana. For gawds sakes my US buddies, you HAVE got to stop the religious right from turning the clock back on your country. Canada is about to legalize prostitution after studying the success of the Dutch model, lower STD's, almost zero prostitution related crime etc. We're still moving forward thank goodness.

Ok, gotta rant some more before bed... Did you know that marijuana is illegal only cause it's part of the hemp family? In the crazy days of prohibition in the US the major oils and plastics companies like Dow and Exxon were hell bent on taking over the world with their plastics. The annoying advances in one of nature's most helpful fibres, hemp, was impeding their domination and the US government, as always, was wrapped up in the oil industry. They took the flowering version of hemp and deemed it a "drug", even though it had been used for 1000's of years as a medicine (never was it considered bad, a threat or illegal until then). Then a huge campaign of public hysteria turned it into what it still is today, some feared substance. I, personally, rarely use it, but I KNOW it is not nearly as harmful as alcohol or cocaine. Alcohol, is easy to regulate and hard to produce compared to hemp. God forbid the farmers of the land got rich, no they couldn't have that. Oil was far too easy for just a few of the world's elite to profit from. As the world was evolving at that time (50's) and the US was emerging the economic super power, many, many countries followed suit for the sake of their US loan dependencies. The poorer the country often the harsher the penalty ( meanwhile these countries are OK with opium ). The world hasn't changed much since "pot" was deemed illegal by the US but one thing is for certain, throughout history powers have changed and the far east is next in line. War and such won't win it long term. Just my two cents.

May 17, 2005 -Another birthday. My big present this year is that I'm living back where I grew up, my mother is back in my life and I'm putting down roots and feeling content. On Sunday the 22nd my mom and Gail organized a get together of friends of mine past and present. It's going to be an outdoor BBQ (weather permitting) hence the manic gardening in the past week. Of course mom, Gail and sister Joanne will be here. I will also be seeing my fill-in mother Sheila, who took me in during the years my mom couldn't handle me when I was 13, 14 and 15. I haven't laid eyes on Sheila since 1992, she rocked and I love her to death. My first love Bill and his new partner are coming from Toronto and they're bringing my Toronto years' best friend Chris with them, plus a new friend from Kingston - the party element. My long term good friend John, whom I love dearly, will be cooking up a storm. A former college professor who now holds tantic sex weekends is coming with his new wife. My lovely nieces Ashley and Zara with mom Les and partner Frank, will be here. A really handsome farm guy in his early thirties who lives nearby will be here. Bandit, Dixie, Sebastian, Winston and Avril will have a blast - keeping them out of Gail's masterpieces of gardens will be the chore. This has been a really intense year of highs and lows. The Ibill crash in September almost ruined tylersroom, yet the site recovered and is blessed to now have it's biggest following ever. My best friend and love of my life Blackie died in July last year and sent me into an emotional tailspin yet now I find myself in love again with a little guy who's turning out to have the capability of filling those huge paws. I've got unwelcome grey hairs and permanent creases on my stomach yet my health is good and I'm stronger than I've ever been. Meeting all you wonderful characters on our forums has made this site so special to me now. You lived some of this past year with me and I have lived some of the incredible hardships and fabulous moments in the lives of you guys. And the laughs. The best of laughs. Happy 32 to me. P.S. LOOK what I got for my birthday just a few minutes ago... my heart skipped a beat when I opened it. My baby has been immortalized and I'm speechless.

I have a good friend who lives in another part of this house, we eat together often, he uses the kitchen to run his baking business out of and I'm glad he lives here or this house would be totally empty. Gail and Karen come two days a week to help out in the garden, I like those days, they've become great friends. Mom's set in her ways and we have our weekly times. Like those too. Problem is I'm kinda lonely. I feel I have alot to share and noone to share with. When I see the all new flowers and growth sprouting every morning, Bandit splashing in his kiddie pool in the hot afternoon, listening to tunes with a beer in the evening... always alone. Sigh. I hate living in the city, don't like crowds or bars and am extremely shy. I'm content with where I'm at in my life at 32 but as I said... kinda lonely. With all my conflicts with the gay urban lifestyle, what am I to do?

I'm really sad tonight... I know I shouldn't be but tomorrow is Bandit's big day. Chop chop. Apparently it's gonna be nice and fast with a laser. But it is really bugging me. I won't sleep tonight, I just want it over with. I can't look him in the eye this evening. Never had any problems fixing female dogs but cause he's a boy...

My new puppy! Introducing Bandit!

If you can start the day without caffeine If you can get going without pep pills, If you can always be cheerful, ignoring people with your troubles, If you can eat the same food every day and be grateful for it, If you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time, If you can overlook it when those that love you take it out on you when, through no fault of yours, something goes wrong, If you can take criticism and blame without resentment, If you can ignore a friends limited education and never correct him, If you can resist treating a rich friend better than a poor friend, If you can face the world without deceit, If you can conquer tension without medical help, If you can relax without liquor, or drink, If you can sleep without the aid of drugs, If you can say honestly that deep in your heart you have no prejudice against creed, color, religion, or politics Then my friends you are almost as good as your dog.

Eight weeks have passed since I lost Blackie and I still miss her very much. I had a bit of a restless thing come over me after she died and I packed up all my stuff and hit the road. I've been travelling for the past month and am ready to settle down again. I still can't bring myself to consider another dog, Blackie was juust soooo possesive but I really miss the company of a dog. This picture is the last day of Blackie's life, I guess my face says it all. A member made this little movie for me and posted it on our forum, I thought it was really sweet! Speaking of forums, if it seems like I have been posting stuff here less often it's because I added a forum for members and that keeps me very busy. It's become a really friendly hang out with lots of interesting diverse voices. If you are a member be sure to check it out, if you aren't a member, check it out if you ever do decide to join! There are some good new additions coming up this month (September) and I added a video download section which the guys seem to really like. I am going to try and add as many downloads as I can monthly. The members choice movies are popular and most of the glitches with that new Flash streaming technology seemed to have been ironed out. It's a blast reading your reaction to some of the movies that end up getting voted in!

Seven weeks away from the US election and Bush seems to be in the driver's seat. Why? I watched that excellent Republican convention with dismay. Moderate after moderate praising Bush. Arnold was awesome, the mother of all moderate Republicans.... And then there's Kerry. Loser, capital L, loser. I don't know how he can survive the Bush machine's smear campaigning. He's just not good enough. Wake me up when he's finished droning. So that leaves me, personally, in a no win situation... I'm glad I'm Canadian, but US politics still affects us heavily. Here's my fearless prediction... Bush wins the Presidency again fairly handily in the electoral college. But it will be virtually tied in popular vote although not as close as 2000. Cheney will retire and won't opt to succeed Bush in 2008. Bring on Schwarzenegger, who will be able to run after Bush makes the change in the Constitution during his second term as a "repay" for helping him win in 2004. Six years of California Governor behind him, he'll have the credentials. The Democrats will nominate Hillary Clinton in a landslide. Imagine the drama of a Clinton/ Scwarzenegger election? Teeheehee. Scwarzenegger wins the Whitehouse in 2008. Yeesh, I must be tired, I think I need to lie down. :P

July 22, 2004, so, after a brief agonizing struggle with cancer, it's over. I insisted Blackie be at home with me away from the hospital. We took our last truck ride (truck rides were one of her favourite things) and she even mustered a bark or two at passing doggies. When we got home we went upstairs and lay down together, she had a peanut butter cup, I know chocolate and dogs don't mix, but Blackie just adored the odd peanut butter cup. The vet arrived around 5 pm came upstairs, explained a few things to me and then gave Blackie her shot. I held my girl tight and whispered in her ear how great a friend she has been. She is being cremated and I am gonna spread her ashes in her favourite park and on her favourite beach, the rest are going in a little container which I am going to hang from my rearview mirror so she never misses a truck ride. I am so sad. My baby is gone.

May 2004, my how time is flying by these days. I'm glad it's spring though, there's tons of outdoor stuff to do around this place, and I've had quite enough of this hibernation stuff. I was out painting the deck this afternoon when the doorbell rang, after I bought a box of cookies off the Girl Guide I came back up and guess who was relaxing in the sun right up againt my work? Doh. Oil based paint, not sure what to do about it. Maybe a dalmation, yeah that's it, a little work and she might pass....

Well the site sure got larger in a big hurry last month, 23 new movie feeds, fraternity guys, 30 new photo sets and all the regular shit... a record month for tylersroom for sure. May is looking just as promising, there is a hot new feed coming, I can't spill details yet but it is gonna be a hot raunchy number... you're gonna love it. Stay tuned! The forum is working out well, good place to help each other out and make friends, I should have thought of it monthes ago. Did you see the collage of US soldiers killed in Iraq? Pretty powerful stuff, you can see it here (it's a big ass file 2300K). Speaking of Bush, what is with all these ridiculous Kerry bashing TV ads... and attacking his military record, now that's is just plain incredible to me, coming from Mr. AWOL himself. Kerry doesn't impress me much at all but at least he might have a fighting chance of repairing some of the damage to world relations this administration did. The more I see of Kerry, the more I wish Howard Dean had been given a shot. He just mighta stirred things up enough to cause some interest, Kerry is as dull as worn sandpaper. He gave a half decent speech the other day on what must be done in Iraq but really it was the same old stuff we already knew. Maybe a more personable VP candidate will help that ticket. Eh, from what I've heard, like Florida in 2000 it's all gonna come down to Ohio this year.

Well the fun of my H2 has just about worn off, time for the real thing now hehe! Speaking of Hummer's, have you seen these two fabulous TV ads? Even if you're not a fan of the truck itself ya gotta love these spots. The first one is the new ad featuring Mojave3's "Bluebird of Happiness" from the album "Spoon and Rafter". I bought this album just the other day and I recommend it highly. The 10 minute long version of this song is about the best thing I've heard in years, so infectious. Watch Illumination. The other one is an award winning spot about an enterprising young man who isn't afraid to take his own path to reach his goal. The rules of the race only say "first one down wins". They don't say anything about what route you have to take. It was directed and edited by Scott Hicks and Hank Corwin (JFK, Natural Born Killers). The song is "Happy Jack" from The Who. This is one of my favourite commercials of all time. Watch Happy Jack. Anyhoo, I have got one heck of a sunburn coming in at the moment so I think I'm gonna go have a cool bath. Later!

Well I must have forgotten what these Eastern Ontario winters are like, holy crap there's alot of snow. Weather aside, I'm loving Ottawa, what a great place to be. The site is steaming along, lotsa new stuff lately, and looking forward to a bountiful spring of new content. The site is so big now I keep finding stuff I totally forgot was here! I guess I was wrong about General Clark, very wrong, nice guy but he would never have cut it, he's just too new to politics. He often looked like a deer caught in the headlights. Kerry and Andrews will probably be the ticket and I can't see how those two could lose against Bush. An experienced, decorated Senator and a younthful energetic guy who is one of the best public speakers ever. It's going to be an interesting election year... Bring it on! I'm glad the stuff about Bush's miltary record is being brought up again. He sends 500+ to their deaths in an uneccessary war, it's no wonder people want to know the truth. Well I bought a HUMMER and I love it. Maybe I'll get a real one someday! This is the kewlest remote control truck you'll ever see. I recommend it highly for some fun and it attracts the young guys like flies as well! Damn, it's snowing again, I'm gonna see if I can rig some sort of plow up to my HUMMER to plow the driveway! See ya.

Well, I am moving back to my home province of Ontario, my British Columbia tour has come to an end! When I told some of my friends back in Ontario they said "WHY?". True, so much is so better out here, definately the weather is and the lifestyle is more laid back but as the old saying goes "home is where the heart is" and I miss my family and friends too much. Blowing snow, sleet, hail, ice and slush, those can all be turned into good things, not sure how but I'm sure they can. The site is still steaming on, added lots on interesting new stuff recently including Dick Show, CumOnBoys, Naked Frathouse and BoysCasting. Look for a new "Originals" section soon featuring exclusive Canadian guys you won't see anywhere else. So, Governor Schwarzenegger eh? I am not sure about that one, apparently he will be making an announcement soon that his Lieutenant Governor will be Xena, Warrior Princess. Seriously though, watch carefully what this guy does to cut that deficit, money doesn't just suddenly appear with a new Governership. The best news of the past few monthes... it is starting to look like common sense is coming to bear and Bush might not get reelected. He has screwed everything up so badly I think any replacement would be better, at least to help get the rest of the world back on side. I really like Clark (buttons and T-shirts here) and think that he is the most capable of beating Bush. Clark's evolving position on Iraq is totally understandable (given the Whitehouse's deception on WMD and imminent threats) and actually mirrors my own. This guy is articulate, direct and above all Presidential. I would just love to see Bush standing at the side of the new President being sworn in, on that day the rest of the world will be wearing his now famous smirk. OK, enough of that, I have got to get packed, I will be taking lots of photos on the way home to share with you in this section soon. Bye for now.

"These Margueritas are weapons of mass destruction" - Overheard during George W. Bush's vacation. Woohoo, I finally finished resizing those selected galleries, what a monumental task, over 50,000 monster pics. Now members have the option of seeing the big ass originals or faster loading browser size versions. Just added Live Twinks and Black Shots and there is a lot more coming up soon, gearing up for the fall season! This site is just getting massive but I vow to not raise the member fee, just keep spreading the word like you have been! Arnold for California Governor, that just strikes me as plain funny.

Well, July 1 (Can) , July 4 (US) and pride week are here, yada yada yada... to me it's summer, woohoo, and I'm a happy camper! I need to thank Heather who does most of the money crap and John who is responsible for some of the fabulous pics you see for helping me with this site. I will continue to pursue the best content for you guys. On the political front Canada's PM Jean Chretien is resigning in a blaze of controversial glory, decriminilizing possesion of pot, legalizing gay marriages and making it very evident what he thinks of his US counterpart. Later and thanks, Jean! And bring on a man who I think will do us proud, Paul Martin, he is going to represent us well internationally. On the US front, what a bunch of drivel the democrats have in the line up at the moment. Bush must be grinning himself silly. I just can't reason the impeachment issue over Clinton's little affair as opposed to the current US administrations blatant deceit over the IRAQ debacle. The only hope is that General Wesley Clark jumps in, he will create a tidal wave and be a fabulous leader in my opinion. Run, General, run. A bunch of new content is coming up soon so stay tuned. Chow for now.

Alot of people ask me if this website is still mine and is it still run by me... the answer to both questions is yes! I do everything myself and am grateful for the incredible support I get. Today is May 23, Happy Birthday Mum! I brought back "Our Guys" and "Live and Raw" recently, it felt kinda empty without them and since L&R's return, well you guys have made it quite clear that it is your favourite external feed, bar none. It's a beautiful day on the west coast and Blackie is guilting me out so I gotta go for a walkie!

As you have probably noticed I have an eye out for quality content as opposed to "fill". I have been around almost three years now and I am sick and tired of the poor quality shit these straight companies dish our way. I try, now, to buy from gay guys (and gals) who know what we are all about. The incredible surge in "straight" gay sites is just incredible and to be avoided. New feeds Sex Gaymes and Cruiser Boys are some of the best vids yours truly has ever seen!

I am SO DAMN OPPOSED to this war stuff... what the hell is wrong with the US Government, I have so many friends down there and NONE of them agree that war is the answer. Canada is really in a quagmire, especially if the US renders the UN irrelevant, because we have always based our politics around the UN and NATO. Tough decisions ahead for this country, I'm sure. How can anyone like Bush??? He is TOTALLY infuriating. I have never had a politician actually really seriously annoy me as he does. Everytime he speaks I cringe. What I hope for is that he continues to mess up the US economy so bad (he's well on his way) that he gets turfed like his father did, no matter the outcome of his war. Blair will also be a goner, hopefully. Shame though, I really liked him until I came to realize he models almost all his politics after Clinton and, now, Bush. The thought of IRAQ being an active threat to the USA is just so silly. I know Canadians who have been there and the country will barely be able to defend itself for a couple of weeks against the so called "coalition of the willing". The propaganda floating around over here is just so over the top. Can you believe the way things are unfolding? It's not the same old, same old this time, things are very different. You know Bush has even spoken of using nukes in an unprovoked attack? Kindler, gentler nukes, apparently, smart enough to bury themselves deep in the ground and then detonate. Lessening "collateral" surface damage, while wiping out underground bunkers and leaving poisonous, festering wounds on the earth. Sounds like a great plan!

On Michael Jackson's TV show, soft soul, a little mixed up obviously. To me it is like accusing a twelve year old boy of raping his pal. I thought the program was hard to watch, I just can't get past his appearance. The only time he looks even remotely normal is when he looks like a woman, an awful lot like Diana Ross I might add. But his personality seems so genuinely gentle even when put in that dubious context. When Martin asked him about the "bed" thing, I thought Michael's reaction about the "you think bed means sexual, it's not sexual" was the most telling moment and toughest to watch. I didn't get a chance to catch his rebuttal, apparently, it too was a little odd, a little too far the other way. Bottom line to me, I own all his CD's, play them rarely (music tastes have changed) but enjoyed them immensely at the time and thank him for that. That's all. What's a little funny is that the two programs were two of the most watched shows in television history. For all his oddness this man is still capable of commanding more people's attention than Bush and Blair combined could ever hope to. Let's hope he comes back with a killer album for the kids or gets the proper recognition for the years and dollars he has invested in kids.

Christmas again? ...geez I just got rid of last years tree. Haven't done a thing yet this year, not sure I will, maybe this year I'll make it a REAL holiday!

Just doesn't feel like Christmas around here it was 60 degrees and sunny today...I'm a northern Ontario boy and I like my winters cold and with snow! I was out hiking in the hills with Blackie this afternoon and we came upon another black dog...
well Blackie has issues with other black dogs, not sure why...but I held on for dear life and the life of the other dog and did a few hundred three sixties down the hill as she threatened war on this other amicable dawg (hence the dirty pants in the pic). Blackie is the biggest suck that ever lived but she seems to think that another black dog might replace her or something... training school is definately in order, best not be any other black students!
So scratched and bruised I sit!

This site has really taken off lately and noone seems to be having any major issues so thats good news. I think the content speaks for itself at this point.

What is with this world and wanting to fight with each other? I figure it's in our nature to argue and bicker and therefore on a larger scale the leaders of various countries just continue that on a larger scale. I think war with Iraq should be avoided at all costs, my hunch is it will be real messy this time.

Well so much has happened since I last wrote in here I don't know where to start...so I won't...hehe. I'll add a good long entry here in a few days (it's November 9). But tonight I'm bagged and off ta bed!

College Boys Live will be joining the line up on Monday (Sept 9), a great "condo style" feed featuring a bunch of really outgoing college students. This site is just getting massive...but it's still just me, no suits here, that's why I can offer you guys so much for such a reasonable rate... as long as I can eat and Blackie can eat I'm content! Loving the US Open, the men are starting to get more entertaining...or maybe just more cute (Hewitt and Roddick...rowf!) Sampras and Agassi in the final...who'd a thunk it? And the women were great as usual...but enough already with the all-Williams finals...they suck, I'm never sure if they are really trying. Well, happy back to school time to those who do that, thanks for your continuing support (2 years on Sept 24) and keep spreading the word!

OK...two complete site design changes in less than three weeks!!! I just hated that purple...like going to work everyday in a purple office...no thanks. I had several recommend me NOT to change it so fast...but I figured you guys would forgive me and I just HAD to. I won't be changing it again now for at least a few monthes now!! I haven't written in here for a while I've been so damn busy...I'll try to keep it up a bit more often. Wanted to let you guys know I have been on my cam just lately, so check in now and then. Prague Buddies has been welcomed warmly and is getting alot of you guys visiting. These are real mens men...a nice balance with the young cuties from Miami Studios. All for now...

Hey all, how's it going? Seems like things are improving around here...Gaywatch and Boys Condo are faster (better servers), Our Guys has a new look and the videos work better now....Dude Magazine actually put up a new issue (it only took 4 monthes and the new issue is still four monthes back!) I am still looking for new feeds and will have something soon. It's been a slow couiple of monthes in the industry for new stuff. Miami Studios is cranking it up just lately and their boys are really hot. Something for everyone's tastes at this point...OK I can't hold back any longer...What a disgrace this situation in the Middle East is...as far as I'm concerned the whole lot of them are responsible for war crimes at this point. Bush has been so indecisive and flaky on the issue (more of his "governing by committee" crap) it's almost embarrassing. I must confess I'm no expert on the subject but one thing seems all too obvious to me...Israel cannot possibly gain from this military nonsense, as a guy from the UN who finally got in to see the Jenin refugee camp said "they may be getting rid of some bona-fide terrorists but their actions are breeding a whole new generation of hatred". If you're an Alanis Morrissette fan then, like me, you must be in some sort of "Utopia" about the new album...if you're not a fan...treat yourself, it's really good, I mean REALLY good. One of those rare albums where EVERY track seems to grow on you like a rash (A more mature, artistic, sonically superior Jagged Little Pill). And guess what!!! Celine has a new album out...just to torture me! See ya.

Summer 2002

Woohoo...spring is finally starting to break on the west coast! Can't wait, it's been a long dull grey winter on the island. Almost finished the re-design of the site...proved to be a much bigger undertaking than I anticipated...your feedback has been really good and I appreciate that. Hey members, have you had a chance to check out the new streaming video...Bottom Boys and Ass Hounds...truly remarkable quality...FINALLY! I have become friendly with the guy who actually codes these things and the reason they are superior is that they are coded from their own high quality DVDs , not just the "Flea Market" videos we see so much of. Another advantage these streams have is that the company started as a DVD producer in 1993, online, and now leads the industry...in other words, we are getting access to some very fine stuff and he vows to add many more movies regularily. I'm travelling to Great Britain to see my Mum in a couple of weeks...it's so nice that I can just take my "work" with me! It will be the first time in many years Mum, my sister and I will all be together. On an alarming political note...George Dubya was a madman when he implied the US will use nukes first if necessary to PREVENT an attack....just what in the world is he setting us up for? I honestly thought we had heard the last of this nuclear nonsense when the USSR ceased to be and the supposed "cold war" was over. It's maddening, not to mention frightening. Uh oh, I feel a bout of Olympic withdrawal coming on. Congrats to the USA for putting on such an awesome show. I think they are the only country who could have it pulled off safely and without a hitch such a short while after 9/11. Good work. Now here comes the good part...we ARE the first nation of hockey...WOO HOO! Hats off to the Canadian Men's and Women's hockey teams...we rule on the ice! Marc Gagnon thrilled us with blistering fast skates! Finally, the hosts walk away, desevedly, with a record amount of hardware...how fitting! Canadians had the best outfits again...Roots rocks. USA also wore Roots and looked great as well. One more little bit of Canadian pride... Barenaked Ladies, Alanis and The Tragically Hip put on the best shows and brought down the house. Now, what the hell's on TV? 1998 Give our skaters their gold medal, dammit. What a disgrace. I am no figure skating expert but even I could see that David and Jaime's performance was by far superior to that of the Russian pair (who were very good and most definately deserved their silver). We should hire Tonya Harding to "talk" to those crooked judges. They should break them up and bring in fresh blood for each major event. There must be enough figure skating experts out there. Other than this incident the Olympics have been a great show so far, loved that French women's downhill skier who just smoked Pikabo et al. Very impressive. I haven't picked on GWB for a while, war and all, but he still seems to be behaving in a very one dimensional way. Without sounding disrespectful of his fine "wartime" leadership and morality, he seems to skirt any questions about domestic or foreign policy in favor of war talk. Enron could prove very interesting, although I must say US Congress seem a little out of line in their methods of investigating so far. Speaking of Texas, I have to admit the TV show "King of the Hill" makes me roar at times. I saw a particularily funny episode last night about soccer vs. football, there was a really funny exchange between the soccer coach and Hank about faxes and emailing. See that one? Oh, one more thing, that live feed "Our Guys" is the kewlest of the lot in my opinion, really engaging boys and the "Naked Male Studios" have a few real cuties and the pics are really good quality. Really sad news...Mum's got cancer, here's wishing she outlives me...love you Mum, for me and her, thanks to ma peeps for all your support. HAPPY NEW YEARS GUYS (AND GALS)! Thanks muchly for your support last year, this site has grown beyond my wildest dreams and I vow to go right to the top of the pack this year, bringing you everything gay and sexy the internet and porn industry has to offer. To all my members an extra thank u and a great big hug!! ABOUT ME I'm Tyler, I'm 5'11" and weigh about 150 lbs. I was raised in Ontario, Canada where I did well in school, not so well in athletics and was very shy. I moved to British Columbia a few years ago, started working out and quickly got over my shyness. Boy's Condo is a damn good feed no two ways about it. I am really impressed with their setup and their very hot boys, yet another place I'd love to move in! I've been working very hard on the site lately and I hope you're likin' the additions, I'm thinking of making a non-frames simpler version of the members area as an alternative, I'd appreciate your feedback. I have got quite a few good cyber buddies now ( u know who you are!) and I really enjoy chatting with you. Have you seen the documentary "Behind the Veil" and it's follow up "The Unholy War" on CNN?...wow, what brilliant, moving reporting, sure leaves you with a very bad feeling about the poor Afghan women and a vitriolic anger towards the Taliban. I can't believe Christmas is just four weeks away...yikes, my sister, her boyfreind and kids are coming to visit and I have some MAJOR cleaning to do! Like I've said before these words are not all written at the same time so it might not all make sense, I might even contradict myself as I find myself morphing with the times! Well the bombs started dropping this morning over Afghanistan...I don't really know what to think...just have to wait and see I guess. I heard this song the other day and at first I was a little angry that John Lennon's anthem of peace "IMAGINE" had been remixed with clips from the troubled world we now live in...but after a few listens it struck me as very powerful, a call to arms in the name of peace. It is such an emotional peace that I decided to put it on my server for anyone to download. Here it is...JOHN LENNON _ IMAGINE (WORLD TRADE CENTER VERSION) Click to listen for fast connections...Left-Click, Save Target As to download for slower connections. Thanks alot to all of you who have notified me of errors on my site. It is almost impossible to keep up without your help. I customized my Error 404 page with an e-mail link to report the error. Hopefully you will never see that page, but if you do, and have the time...drop me a note. GAYWATCH is a pretty cool new addition, Wolf is very sexy especially his jerkoff video...nice dick! I added a new "Help" page which hopefully will answer any questions you might have (technical, billing, FAQ). I strongly reccommend all Netscape and Internet Explorer users avoid the latest versions of each respective browser (both named version 6) they are highly unstable. It has become a major issue at Microsoft and Netscape and hopefully they will work out the bugs soon. The newest, most stable versions of each are; Netscape 4.67 and Internet Explorer 5.5. Usually you can't shut me up, but for most of last week I was truly speechless. After all the mass destruction and horrendous stories of suffering, even thinking of my website seemed so trivial...however, life must go on and we all still have to relieve ourselves. My first reaction, like most others, was for the US to show it's mighty rage and obliterate somebody. Now, I see it won't be so easy. I hated everything about George W. Bush since he was elected but in this trying time he has handled himself with incredible grace. His open showing of emotion at that press conference last week really touched me and made me realize having a man of such strong faith as US President might not be so bad after all in these times. If the world and that includes Canada, doesn't stop this now, it will indeed escalate to Nuclear, Chemical etc., it's just a matter of time and money. I am a pacifist at heart but unfortunately, I don't think there can possibly be a totally peaceful ending to this. On a lighter note, I am adding a really cool new premium feature in the next few days called "Gaywatch", live guys, videos, galleries and more. This is the latest "Dudedorm" only the guys will go a little further! Geez, sorry if offended anyone with my anti-popup rant, I didn't mean that all popups are evil, just when they are abused and cause your browser to hang. I know some freehosts force them on people. Speaking of hosting, if you are thinking of starting a website or already have one consider WeareProud.com for all your hosting needs, these guys are friendly, accomodating and a lot of fun. The shit I put them through in the early days and still they kept the faith and believed in me even when I was way behind in my payments. Good guys, good service, check them out at weareproud.com. I have been having some fun lately messing around with Flash, check out my little site pitches, one, short and light, the other longer and pounding! -Heavy Flash -Light Flash A little rough but kinda kewl anyway! YIKES! I decided to go surfing through other porn sites, something I generally avoid, and I have to say I'm almost ashamed to be a part of this business. What a huge amount of creepy webmasters there are. I can't believe all the popups, complete screen takeovers, and uncloseable windows there are out there. A big pile of stinky shit to all those who unleash this nasty practice. I will never do this to anyone who surfs this site or any of my UGAS sites, I totally despise this practice and will never go surfing sex sites again, unless the site has been reviewed by a trusted link list. Even that is risky as some of these pricks change their sites as soon as they are listed. Surfer beware, but hey, ethics and fairness are needed. Well it's August 19 and the summer is almost over...this one really did just FLY by. I am having a very hard time keeping up with all the work involved with my site and am looking for an assistant. Please E-mail me for details if you are interested. I have a buddy who is helping out with the model recruitment, we are now running ads in several gay publications, and hope to premiere all of these hot boys and men soon. I have been amazed how many guys have responded to the "Models Wanted", some of the guys who have responded so far range from a streetboy in Vancouver, a student in Seattle, a stunning coverboy-type from India, the diversity is what I'm after and so far so good. I want this site to feel like everyones site. I am trying to add lots of free sexy stuff for you guys who like the site but don't want to join. Stay tuned for all the upcoming stuff! I have been trying to get used to the various Netscape browsers and just HATE them. Navigator is out of date, and the new 6.1 is absolutely riddled with bugs and plugin/javascript conflicts. I have tried to make this site equally accessible for both browsers but Netscape keeps throwing me curve balls. On a consumer level, I cannot stand the way Netscape tries to take over your entire computer with their various applications... sure, I'll use Netscape Download and let you pop up your dumb ads and make them uncloseable....NO THANKYOU. One of the biggest challenges for webmasters is trying to make a website look and act the same for all browsers. This has been an absolute nightmare for me as I all but ignored Netscape while designing the new site and realized afterwards how fucked up it looked in Netscape. I've done my best to make everything as browser friendly as I can, make sure you enter the correct way...or use the link to change formats. I would love to hear from some of you Netscape users (silly people...just joking!) on how the site acts for you ie: Can you see the Live Counter? Do the Real Videos work?...etc. LMK. Dancin' Dubya is silly but a good laugh, if you find any funny Bush stuff send it in. You might ask why, being a Canadian, I love to make fun of GWB and not my own Prime Minister, it's just that George is SO very easy to make fun of. Chretien is as humourless as a guppy. So, in an odd way I guess I'm paying some sort of respect to GWB, I really don't mean to, though. I want to thank the guy who wrote about my escapade with a "radioactive hedgehog" neverending story, I laughed out loud when I read that. Enough for now. If the rest makes no sense it's because I just add to the page whenever I have a spare minute and don't delete the older stuff. Consider it my online diary of sorts!

Porn star Chris Steele has joined the cast of "Spy on Him" and he puts on quite a show. Members check him out live on "Spy on Him"! These live cams are very horny although sleep deprivation sets in quickly. I'm going to add some more of these shows plus get on my own cam a little more often. Watch out for that nasty Sircam virus, see above, my PC was infected and I woke up a few mornings ago to find my entire HD wiped out. What a freakin' drag. Next thing I know I'm biting my nails over the CodeRed Virus which infects the exact type of server I just recently upgraded to, Windows 2000. Luckily my buddy, Jack, at weareproud.com, my hosts, installed the Microsoft anti-virus patch just in time! Have you checked out Dudedorm yet? I am thinking of starting my own Dudedorm...anyone interested?...E-mail me. I am serious and have a few guys very interested already. These guys at Dudedorm are "celebrities" in the gay world! I got a copy of a letter I requested from my fellow Canadian Alanis Morrissette the other day and I would like any of you guys who follow me and my political views to read it. It's a very intelligent plea for GWB to step back and have a look at what he's doing to this world in his short time in office. Watch a funny movie about the Bush Energy Plan here. Well what a month it's been. Huge changes around here!!! I decided it was time to offer some really good quality shit ( I personally was getting tired of the vivos!) The full length movies especially the "Hard Bodies" collection blow me away with their quality. Even full screen they come off as close to TV as I have seen on the internet. I'm happy to offer them to you guys. I have made this a private site, although their is still more free here than the average "free" site! As you can see I intend to pamper my members with the latest gay porn available. If you see a feature somewhere else that you would like to see here just let me know and I'll see what I can do. I have enjoyed being able to be on my webcam lately and meeting some of you guys. I'm also preparing a special mini video for all my members, I'll keep you posted. I turned 26 last month and have noticed since I started working on the computer, that life seems to just fly by...I really have missed alot of fun stuff this summer...so my latest lesson in life is to try and put some balance back in my life. I try not to even turn the computer on until my dog takes me for a walk and I've done some form of physical activity. One could just waste away living and breathing computer. Well that's enough for now...feel free to read on through my older ramblings. Take Care. PS. GWB is still a dufuss and has yet to impress me in any way! E-Mail Me "HEY THERE, YOU WITH THE STARS IN YOUR EYES..." Archie Bunker....Carroll O'Connor - 1924-2001. Thanks for SO many laughs. I work in website design and love surfing the web discovering new applets and webpage scripts. If you are a regular visitor here you probably have noticed how often I change this site. I change my bedroom around once a week and I think it's just a continuation of that. If you visited me before you will notice I've bailed all the eye candy ( java, applets, gifs etc.) in favor of faster loading ( hopefully) simpler pages. The site doesn't seem nearly as big or as flashy but there is actually more content now...just more neatly packaged.You can tour around now and find all sorts of stuff. I'm glad this website is entertaining so many guys. I just hit the 2 Million mark today, May 25, so a huge THANKS! This site costs $600 US a month to stay up plus has it's own dedicated server...not to mention all my time, so I love your letters, they make SOME of it worthwhile...he he. Many of you have asked about the webcams and the problem is this...Too Much Traffic! anytime I've tried to go live I've almost blown up my server. I have several people queued who want to broadcast from here and I'm talking to my Hosts about how it could be done technically without restricting access. Hey, good news on the US Senate...a little balance is always good. The environment might not take such a hit. I've also had to password protect some of content for two reasons. 1) I have tried and just can't afford the expenses. I could pollute the site with banners and ads but I have no interest in that. 2) I get so many visitors that when I try to offer everything for free my server slows down to a crawl. I'm on a dedicated server now and can't afford to upgrade it at this point. UGAS is decent enough..there are some real good sites like this one! and some shit but there are many rules webmasters must follow including no popups and misleading links, so it's all preetty safe, entertaining real estate. For those who want to help me out with a few bucks feel free to donate using my secure server instead. With a bit more internet income I will be able to keep adding exclusive movies and content. Another bonus in the misery ...my webcams will work with more limited access. Sorry to anybody who's dissappointed...I did try. Here in my home province, British Columbia, we just elected a completely Liberal government with no official opposition...sounds like a bit of a dictatorship to me...it's going to be a long four years. And as far as the latest GWB line about "our neighbour Canada's abundant energy resources...", GET LOST!, manage your own resources. Summers back and it's tanning time! Therefore new pics soon...I looked pretty pasty these last few monthes! I look forward to some feedback on this design...good or bad.

A Canadian perspective on the US election...YOU picked the WRONG man...just stand back and take a good long look at GWB!..he he he Sorry I just had to get that off my chest! UPDATE: I am sorry if I offended anyone with the GWB crack, but judging by my E-Mails almost all you Americans seem to agree...So What Gives?! Also I've received alot of fun questions from people about why I feel the need to brag about my being Canadian, someone went so far as to say that all of us Canadians are rude and overpatriotic...that's exactly why I added the Canadian thing because "us Canadians" actually have always been less than enthusiastic patriots. When Molson released the Joe Canadian beer ad...it caused a much needed swell in Canadian pride amongst us younger folk...no harm there I don't think.To balance it out...GO USA, for that matter GO WORLD!!! We Rock! Later Gators!
