Free Bear Hugs
If the election goes well next Tuesday, I have decided to be one of those dorky guys who give out free hugs to strangers. Only my hugs will be different; I will be giving out free bear hugs.
Since most people on the day after elections are either depressed or elated, it makes since that they would want a hug. I know I did the last election, and the election before that, and the election before that.
I'm actually very fond of bear hugs. Most people might find this odd, since I'm usually classified as aloof and standoffish. But I do love to give bear hugs, unless, of course, you're scary and gross.
Next Wednesday in Dupont Circle from 10am to 2pm, I will do my part to help make the world a better place. And no money is involved! Wouldn't it be fun to watch me make an ass of myself, again? So make sure you vote to make this happen!
If the election does not go well, then I will be the one who requires a big bear hug that day. You can find me in the fetal position on my bed.

this might be worth making an unscheduled trip to our nation's capital just to either get a bear hug, or give one to you as you lay fetaly-positioned in bed. hmmmmmm...

I will be first in line regardless of the outcome(s). In fact I want a bear hug from you right now!
You are not aloof and standoffish. In fact I think you are quite the dirty mackerel.

If that doesn't make you wanna vote, nothing will. Well said.

I'll take a hug, though if it's an especially good day, I might be tempted to spin you around, a la Sound of Music.
I've seen Berkowitz on Manhunt! I recognized the menorah in the background.

What kind of guy includes a menorah in his Manhunt profile?! That is way worse than being gay.

I've already had a bear hug from d-bud, but I'd certainly enjoy another one some time.

The extent of Kirk Fordham's interaction with other gays is in the sauna at the 1211 Connecticut Ave. Washington Sports Clubs.
Lee Cohen was once Jewish, but switched to Catholocism. He tried out for the gay rugby team here but didn't think about his snap-on toupee, which fell off during a scrum. He grabbed it and ran off the field and we never saw him again...
Traynaham once told me he was an elementary grade school teacher.
