from grumpy to giddy in 2 hours! Dropped off a few packages at the post office, tried flirting with the postal clerk (retail associate is the official name) but he was grumpy. Female clerk grabbed my attention as I was leaving, saying some packages had just come in. The pic to the left is from my FAVORITE MIDWESTERN TOOL, and I'll scan a bit more later. Also, 2 boxes of gear! I know I am supposed to be a professional, but by the time I got to the second slinky Speedo, something was stirring in my nether regions. Needless to say, I'm already wearing one of the swimmer-style jockstraps. Damn! and I have so much other stuff I was supposed to do today!

g'morning. grumpy, but I'm sure I'll get over it. Been sick for a week, which is getting to be a drag. Just that headcold / sinus / headachey thing, which is now primarily a cough, with a slight sniffle. Workers renovating the apartment next door seem to need to hammer on the 2 walls my bedroom share with it for 45 minutes every morning from 8:45 to 9:30. Front tire of bike is flat, no doubt teenage sabotage. Day off, but have a ton of things to do, and really just want to crawl back into bed (which would cause the hammering to start again, so I won't be doing that). Also discovered that someone seems to have me on a mailing list of sorts - or rather, when I post a videoclip, a mailing goes out with a link to it. Last sexual experience (with another human) was last Thursday, which normally would seem like forever, but with this headcold thing, I haven't been thinking much about sex (well, of course there's the breaking in a new cockring while watching Clint Lockner getting his ass eaten and shooting all over his own face vintage Colt movie, but I've only watched that 3 times in the past 24 hours, so it doesn't exactly count). And of course the posting of pics from magazines I'm hawking over at eBay (muscle guys above and/or on the side are "cousins" Blue and Gage Blake) so that you'll click the pic you go to my eBay page, see my cheesey face pic and a long list of auction items with the RED "Hidden: Requires adult Verification" notation, so you have to be an eBay person to actually see the list.... I'm rambling again, more coffee, and I'll look for some some type of porno for here for later.

can't decide where to start licking

Am currently working on posting a bunch of magazine auctions. This pic is a cropped version of a "teaser pic" from Advocate MEN. They usually end an issue with a fairly hot pic of whoever will be on the cover of the next issue (ever see that Lee Ryder on the bearskin rug one?), and Bruno was the covermodel for the November '87 issue. Most of those pics are all over the net in hairy guy photogalleries, but I hadn't seen this one before (from MEN Oct '87). People who ask nicely can get the full scan - just be forewarned, his hand does cover a good deal of his "stuff" - but it's in that "don't ya wanna taste" kinda way.

shopping time again

red shorts, wrestling singlet, football pants, spandex gym shorts, gay suspenders and thong, leather arm band, Hosen in Baumwolle,vintage speedo, white vintage speedo, Muscle model Jock strap

oh yeah, one of the pics I took a few weeks back. I like this one.

Ah, so he had more stuff than I had expected (and all my cash is gone now!) And I got a freebie - a simple, slim black leather cockring, this one is velcro. The other rubber-velcro one's I've bought from him don't seem to sell, so looks like I'll be posting them on eBay below cost ( I can't post "modeled" pics there, but they don't do so well on NaughtyBids, either, even with the pics). But this new one looks cool - the feel, and more importantly to me - the AROMA of leather, but with the handy easy-off of velcro (not to mention the abilty to make it much smaller or bigger than the standard 3-snap might allow). Oh yeah, that's a pal of mine who volunteered a ways back to do some cockring modeling for me. I jumped in for one or two of the pics. Time to recruit a new model.

veiny

Cool day so far. Last night came home to two emails from guys offering to donate "gear" - one was for a few jockstraps (slurp!), the other was someone who mentioned swimsuits and jockstraps (double slurp) - both teased me with a bit of background, which of course is part of the fun of used clothing. The stories - real, made-up, or imagined, that we can associate with gear while wearing the stuff makes it a turn-on. A few years back, I got an email form an eBayer who said he had been following my underwear auctions, thought they were cool, and had been buying on eBay for about a year. But, alas, he was retiring from his teaching job, and realized he had this box of stuff that he really only got off on the idea of buying, and didn't do much once the item arrived, except read the bios, maybe jerk off to the enclosed pics. So, he wanted to donate this box of about 12 - jocks, briefs, and boxers. This was my first donation, and he sent the package with print-outs of the actual eBay auctions, and any correspondence from the dealer. There was a pair of Harrod's boxers, a very cool, comfy Duke jockstrap, etc. All he wanted in return was to get an email notification each time I posted one for auction, so he could see what I did with them - view the pics, and I usually related the story of where it originally came from (the seller) but not the buyer. Was really fun - I need to dig those pics up, eh?

Meanwhile, killing a little time here. Got several errands already done today - shipped off 8 porno packages, grocery shopping, banking, several cups of coffee, of course; and now I am just waiting for my cockring wholesaler to arrive. We've been out of touch, and he didn't seem quite prepared to have much of what I wanted - but he has enough, plus some new things he seemed anxious to tell me about (ooh, maybe a free sample, he does that sometimes) He's a bit quirky -- oops, there he is, gotta run!

I guess you've all seen the Lacoste commericial; not that I usually post such things, but I was lurking around that discussion board I mentioned several times, and thought it's not a bad little clip - you need to go to "advertising" then click on "perfume campaign", then "TV campaign" - not a bad looking hairy gentleman, with a rather fine ass, I might add. (Any interest in the 4-minute "making of" video, let me know - can you believe there's a "making of" video??)

hotlinking and pornoclips, (and rambling)

So, checking this morning's stats, another gigabyte gone over the weekend, totalling 5 gb's for 3 days! Before I continue my rant, I should "fess up" to having done the same thing - using someone's URL (and their bandwidth) rather than saving the pic, uploading it, and then hosting it myself (using my own bandwidth) - if you check my pages still on geocities, you are sure to see a few pics like that. So I don't want to sound like a total idiot being pissed off at someone else doing what I have also done. But by the time I noticed, his page already had nearly 500 hits in less than one day, and he had 4 of my images on there! Plus, the link directly to the 2 videoclips. So now that the "cat's out of the bag" so to speak, in terms of a heavily-trafficked porno discussion board, I have to be very careful in the future about posting clips and getting massive usage that I won't be able to afford. I don't want to do a special "password protected" thing - it's a pain in the ass, I don't want to have to worry about who I give it to, I prefer to be a bit more spontaneous about posting stuff when the mood hits, and if readers dig it, cool. But I've already been asked to use AIM to send full movies! (I mean, go rent a video already, dude!) I didn't post the specific webpage that did the hotlinking, since I suspected that it was one of those "gee look what I found" things, with no real thought behind the guy (me) paying for the usage, and he may well not have anticipated the interest in Dellasandro taking it up the ass (actually, I liked the blowjob stuff more myself, but that's merely a personal preference, perhaps a well-known one at this point...). So I need to give some thought to how, or if, I post more videos in the future. It's a lot of work, but it is something I get a big kick out of, finding stuff I think is cool and sharing it.

And, on that subject, I must say that I've been really lucky in that several generous people have donated, or have promised to donate, some porn, jockstraps, long underwear, etc. - and some guys even added some extra $$ a few weeks back when I was "giving away" ( I charged the shipping cost) some of my old duped tapes. So I want them to know I am really grateful, and I'd also like other readers to know that their fellow readers have been helping out (that's not meant as a guilt trip at all, it's meant as a "if you like the site, other folks have helped out, too" kinda thing) - and yes, I am STILL accepting donations..... But you should know, I sell most of the stuff - but after looking thru, making notes for my pornology pages, and yes, keep a few choice items, - and this helps me pay my personal bills, not just for the website. But I really hate to see good (or even bad) porn go to waste (did I mention cockrings, too?)- so if it's just taking up space in a drawer, box, or closet, let me know and we can work out something. I think somebody promised some porn if I put those full-size jockstrap pics up. Should I do it?

A couple of years ago, a quiet evening at the then-boyfriend's apartment in Queens (god, it must've been love, I took a subway?? to Queeeens????) - anyway - not sure specifically what we were doing, but listening to music, and I wasn't paying much attention, until I heard I'll Be Seeing You. Which, of course, is a great song, and a bazillion folks have recorded it, but this was quite a beautiful version. So I asked, and he replied that it was Rickie Lee Jones. I was flaberghasted. It was an amazing version, with a clarinet or something, and gentle guitar-strumming, that made it so haunting, so bittersweet, I was quite impressed. Like many people, I probably never really listened to her music because of that awful hit, Chuck E.'s In Love. But then, several songs later, I couldn't believe what I heard. One of my all-time favorite songs, and I couldn't believe she was doing such a fine job. Of course, the original Jefferson Airplane song, sung by Marty Balin, is fantastic (and you ought to check out the wonderful live version on the Jefferson Airplane Loves You 3-disc compilation that came out in 1992). If you were to listen to the Airplane's Surrealistic Pillow version back-to-back with Jones', it might be unfair to Jones, so here's just Rickie Lee Jones' version of Comin' Back To Me. Then, a week later, looking through the 88 cent bin at the used record store on St Mark's Pl., I saw her album, Pop Pop, which I quickly nabbed, of course.

oh please, oh please, Theraflu God, remain effective tonight, while I work, despite me having done 6 packets of you in the last 48 hours.

pissed off, hotlinking, and pornoclips

So, being the freak that I am, I like to check my stats daily to see how my bandwidth is going, and all that other stuff that us blogfreaks do (who's linking to me?, which days do I get the most hits? etc). Friday's stats showed 1.7 gigabytes of bandwidth used - WOAH! A year ago, that was a whole month for me. This morning, I checked and Saturday's usage was over 2gigs. Yikes! Late last night I had pulled the longer HOT HOUSE clip down, thinking I could still afford to share the shorter one. But then I noticed a HUGE number of pulls from some "discussion board" site. Now, some of you have teased me about my mock-complaints - "no one ever thanks me for posting the porno clips, boo-hoo" - so I figure I'll try not to do that anymore, even though I do like the occasional "thank-you" (sidenote: I got two very nice compliments about the unionsuit pic, and despite both being from partnered men, that was very cool and satisfied my need for attention, if only briefly). I've been asked several times why I only post the porno clips for 1-3 days, and before this month, one of the main reasons was bandwidth - I didn't want it getting out of hand, since I'd like the ability to share a lot more with regular readers, and not worry so much about folks Google-searching for "free gay porno clips" having access to that stuff a week or more after initially posting. Once Dreamhost upped my bandwidth to the incredible 25 gigs/month (about 830mb's/day, which is a shitload, man!), I figured I could relax, and leave clips up longer. (But no more than a week, since I need to keep some control over usage, and don't want search engines to pick up on those pages.) But I forgot about those evil "discussion boards" - and they always, ALWAYS "hot link" - using the actual URL of pic files on their own sites, therefore eating MY bandwidth. So I did what I've done in the past - which is I change the file names of the "stolen images" (hey, copy, save, and use your own bandwidth, no problem) - but I was still pissed, and tired of having to do this every few days when one of these discussion boards decides to steal images (sometimes it's merely to make fun of one of my self-pics, and i can take a joke, but sheeesh, download the picture, and host it your damn self already!) I had heard about commands, or whatever, that help prevent this, but always figured it's a pain in the ass to implement. It's not. If I could do it in a mere 15 minutes (and I mean from starting the GOOGLE search, to finding the right page, to generating the code, and uploading it to my site, and sending a thank-you email to the page that provided the code-generator) then anyone can. I had forgotten briefly that I still have stuff on Geocities (hssssssss!), so I had to accomodate for that, but it's real easy to do, I highly recommend everyone with their own webpage use the link above to prevent hotlinking. Rant (nearly) over.

Saturday was a rather uneventful day. After going to bed at 3, got up at 4 to have a theraflu. 9:30 made coffee, napped a bit more, went to work, had more theraflu. 2 pals stopped by work to say hi. Several other good-looking men came in, pretending to want food, and even going so far as to order and buy the stuff, but I knew what they really wanted (people often pay 8-15 bucks just to watch me stuff food in a bag and tell them "thanks, have a nice day" when they're not really hungry). Co-worker late again, so I'm at work an hour later than I'm supposed to be, barely make it home before this headcold thing turns me into a complete ogre. Spend the rest of the night in bed watching Lifetime Made-for-TV-movies (Heather Locklear with multiple personalities, one being a whore, something that must be in her standard contract). Now, up again for some hot Theraflu.

Men with experience in full-body massage welcome to come over before I head off to work again at 6pm.

4 p m yesterday sneezing my face off while standing in line at the post office. Ugh. took a nap, theraflu, then headed out in the rain to see the Chicks On Speed / Peaches show. All wet from the rain, then add the sweaty dance floor, throw in really loud music that made my gums sore, and a restless night not really getting much sleep, more theraflu.

time to go to work now? ugh.
