HNT #73 - LADIES, I GOT RID OF THE TOWEL. Now, Please, Read about Adoption Phone # below!

Okay, getting ready to step into the shower so I dropped the towel to honor a couple ladies who commented on this Blog last week. Could you give me a hand, now? Mine are rather full, you see. ; )

But, I want everyone to know that I searched & added this nekkid pic long AFTER I wrote the article & I didn't select it as I was writing about my pregnant ex-gf. That pregnant ex-gf got far more than her fair share of what she deserved from me by lying and playing on my feelings and sense of honor. The old saying rings true for her: "There is no honor among thieves!" Especially not among manipulative, sperm thieves like her! It also stole my youth and freedom from me before I even realized there was "a market" for my kind of eligible bachelor. Ex- and her lies took me off the market for well over a dozen years!

Please tuck the important info below away in case you ever know anyone who is pregnant and needs help. Counseling to consider ALL alternatives helps to make the best decision for every individual person. I found out the info that I wish I had had when MY girlfriend got pregnant back in the day. I had never even CONSIDERED Adoption as an alternative and it WAS a critically important option that changed my life significantly NOT to have considered! It is an option I would like to have realized I had available.

AMERICAN ADOPTIONS AGENCY has a 24/7 number, 1-800-236-7846 (1-800-ADOPTION) to give you info about how they & good adoptive parents will pay all living expenses (rent, clothes, utilities, paid time lost from work, etc.) during a pregnancy, and pay for all medical costs including hospital & delivery. This # is a central phone to an agency person who can put you in touch with an agency contact in your community, but they also CAN GIVE ALL THE INFO ABOUT THEIR FREE PROGRAM AND arrange for a LOCAL AGENCY CONTACT TO COME VISIT YOU IN A DAY OR TWO (with no obligation, of course.) BTW, they tell me that the "BabyDaddy" doesn't have to agree or be involved in the decision.

It's just that people really ought to consider ALL the possibilities before taking action on a very important life decision. Thanks for letting me share this info with you.

Cheers & love, Richard

HNT #72 - First Full-Nekkid Pic (HERE, anyway.)

For the first time ever on my regular blog, I'm ALL nekkid -- but I think I may have managed to conceal one of my finer points a little. Check it out & let me know if your software detected my hardware, K? I need to know about these things!

The flag pictured is from my Aussie friend who was posted in Fiji a couple of years ago with their diplomatic corps. I am always surprised how readily citizens of the British commonwealth of nations freely allow reproduction of their flags as a theme or decoration on common items like the tea towel, here. Especially since strict US flag etiquette for decades has prohibited using the US flag as a decoration.

The US policy has been lightening up here ever since the Hippies & the 60's. I might even have some folks question the US Flag as background in my big tattoo next month -- even I questioned it. So, I decided I don't want to have an exact flag representation but, rather, "our Colors" depicted flaggy or flag-like . This reminds me to insert a tattoo pic from a Native American Indian friend to show an ingenious artistic, use of our patriotic colors in beautiful skin art; if there's no pic below this, I couldn't find it & will add it another week.

I should also mention I HAVE gotten back to doing my drawing again, finally -- and something serious! A Beautiful, Sexxy Girl! Love or Lust, I LIKE IT! I'm going slowly & deliberately like a nice, long, lovemaking session in my mind -- when I touch the drawing, my mind is caressing her skin & body. I want it to last, so I go long and slow. For her privacy's sake, I probably can't post a pic when I finish but I may tease you with occasional progress updates or a snippet.

I was going to add a rant but that was a few days ago & I'm not in the mood to rant about much tonight. I could go on about a new term I just discovered when reading some of the HNT posts of others: Romantic Friendship! But if you want to find out more about it today, go to Wikipedia & search for "Romantic Friendship." I think that's really all I've been looking for in a relationship the last 5 - 10 years but I don't think any young modern KNOWS what that means or why anyone would want it. I knew what it was, I just didn't know what it was called. It's a term from antiquity but I'm not old-fashioned. I just think independently like many wise people who don't follow the crowd but prefer to do what they think makes the most sense in any given situation.
