holiday

Today, the United Kingdom enjoyed a Bank Holiday. Today, I enjoyed work. A fool's take on deductive reasoning would have you believe that were I enjoying a Bank Holiday too, I would be the United Kingdom, but i) the only fool here isn't into playing smartass with his public, and ii) human rights aside, only in some parallel hell dimension could 45 000 people plausibly enter me on a daily basis [assuming a good year for tourism] [and the sex industry] [with which I share no affiliation whatsoever].

Said tourism is off to a great start with the arrival of an old friend, also New York's most depraved, on our turf today -- have a good stay, Frank and Phil -- I promised you bad weather, and so far so good, though this evening, we clearly have sun:

This I like, even if the solar flare erupting through my window is making it difficult to see anything on my screen, ruining my complexion, and ripening my pineapple waay too quickly. Mmm, pineapple... 'scuse me while I go play lobotomy with a fruit.

Two entries in two days...AND a sexy picture. Damn! May is looking fine so far.

matt said:

It's a spring thing :) And isn't he looking lovely?

Corin said:

Yes, Ryan and yes, Matt. This just may be my *favorite* photo of our esteemed Stairs!

Pete said:

gotta agree with the other boys! ;)

Sherry said:

You look good! (Boyfriend is in other room so can get away with saying that!)

We (our rugby team) will be in London for your next bank holiday, which is also our Memorial Day weekend. We are coming to play rugby in the Mark Bingham Cup.

Kendra said:

I have to agree with the crowd, Stairs...you're a dish. :-)

Jalal said:

Are you with something right now or can I hit on you?

matt said:

With something?

David said:

Darling, Spike from Buffy called. He wants his cheekbones back. :)

I won't go into detail the Davy/Kendra "Isn't Stairs cute?" conversations.

So am I the only one who thinks that in this photo you look as if you're coming down with a bout of cholera? ;-)

ksquare said:

If his head gets any bigger after reading this comments section he won't be able to fit through a door. ;)

Yes, he's cute. Yes, he's cute even with cholera. But what I'm more interested in is, what did he do with the pineapple??? Mmm... pineapple.

where oh where is Stairs? I haven't seen him in ages.... Spring Break?

matt said:

I have reason to believe Stairs is alive and well -- guess he's just busy-like. He was hosting overseas bloggers at the start of the week, so probably has to make up for lost time workwise.

ksquare said:

Our Internet papparazzi briefly spotted him at walkytalky.net. No word on what happened to the pineapple though. Mmm... pineapple.

And he isn't replying his mail as well. *kick*

I suspect he's busy.

Frank said:

Yes, Stairs is still recovering from my onslaught.

The explanatory documentary is airing on Channel 4, but only after 2 AM--for obvious reasons.

Stairs said:

This must be one of my longest non-participatory comment threads ever! Appreciate the kind nonsense, but extra points go to David for the most bizarre misdiagnosis ever; it did make me smile, because I'm all about water-borne diseases, but I've never seen cholera look quite like, well, that! Carefully choreographed vitiligo, perhaps?

"Carefully choreographed vitiligo, perhaps?"

Ha ha ha! That would indeed account for the supposed "sun-shine"!

(I had to look "vitiligo" up, of course. What are you, Stairs, a walking thesaurus?!!)

Stairs said:

I only know about vitiligo because i) a girlfriend had it, and ii) Michael Jackson does too, if the skin-bleaching stories are to be ignored.

Why, is vitiligo a synonym for something else? :)p

Not to my knowledge. I had no actual reason to suspect cholera, of course. However, since your "Carefully choreographed vitiligo" suggestion, I haven't been able to look at that photo in the same way! My brain refuses to process it as it did before vitiligo was mentioned!

ksquare said:

What I find interesting is your knowledge of Michael Jackson...
