Okay, it's Gay Day

Speaking of being in the closet…funny story.

My beloved bro-in-law got a call last week from a guy he used to do business with a lot. The guy is in his 60s, retired a couple of years ago, and was calling bro-in-law to tell him he had come out of the closet. And was getting married. To a guy he has known for 2 weeks.

My bro-in-law’s reaction: aren’t you being a bit hasty?

Also, this guy is pretty wealthy and his “intended” is an American who has health problems so will benefit from Canadian health insurance. Also, he has not has sex with the guy yet.

Bro-in-law’s reaction: I see.

My reaction: this is why it’s a bad idea to wait until you are 60 to come out. (*cough* HJ) Inevitably, you will make an idiot of yourself. And probably get wiped out financially. Being 60, acting 20. Leaving people shaking their heads.

He then proceeded to go into way too-much-information about his new life. He just broke up with a porn star. Yeah, right. Then he says to bro-in-law: imagine if all our former associates knew that I, former Executive whatever of whatever company, was quote “getting in the ass”.

Bro-in-law needed two Johnnie Walkers to recover from that phone call. I said to my sis: if you are invited to the wedding, you have to go. She said they would.

hmmm....there's so much to discuss here that I won't even attempt to sum up in a posting.

I will say this, however, does one really need an excuse to drink? I think 2 Johnnie Walkers are merited when Coronation Street is cancelled...obviously, it doesn't take much to upset me.

JAW fan
