Josh Kruger Run-On Sentence of the Week (A Double Dose! Now With Name-Dropping!!)

Yet, instead of pointing out that the HIV+ community is the one most in need of understanding and acceptance vis a vis [sic] this abysmal term, Curry instead grapples with the often ignorant masses of the HIV- community, those poor darlings who still think that because I have HIV I should be reading Tony Kushner as I sit skeletal in my window before I decide to leap outward and splatter myself onto Fourth Street in a dramatic flourish like I’m Ed Harris.

And…

And, considering that so many HIV+ undetectable men would spare themselves the annoying role of educator by having to explain what undetectable means and that they aren’t dying of AIDS every five minutes to well-meaning but frustrating potential sex partners and dates, I can confidently say that the world looks at me as HIV+ before it understands what my personal health status and the fact that I’m undetectable means.

Josh Kruger Run-On Sentence of the Week

Devoting thousands of words in any one of her academically-rejected [sic] tomes containing her personal philosophy, coincidentally written after her unhappy childhood coming out of the Bolshevik Revolution, Rand obsessively makes the paradoxical case that mankind’s sole virtuous interest is self-preservation and if we simply try hard enough to look out for ourselves, through some Schrödinger’s Cat type box of mystery, out will come a Utopian society wherein all men are inherently equal by their selfish pursuit of existence.

Josh Kruger Run-On Sentence of the Week

Coming right off the heels of its inflammatory opus to inbred racism in Philadelphia, “Being White in Philly,” Philadelphia Magazine throws a literary bomb into the marketplace of ideas today by calling the Philadelphia Police Department terrorists and revising history to make MOVE, an anarchist terrorist organization implicating white people and the US government in pretty much every evil inherent in human society whose founder could not read, look like a peace-loving stand against racist institutions in US society.

Josh Kruger Run-On Sentence of the Week

So, now that every media outlet in the United States, including mainstream sources like Newsweek, has completely discredited this falsehood in 2003, Paul Morris and Treasure Island Media decided to wait the public out by about a decade before recycling this myth to scare the living hell out of the HIV- community, to help those who have been up for days doing booty bumps of crystal methamphetamine get off with a foray into the craziest and less likely to be replicated while sober fantasies, and to, whether purposefully or accidentally, disrespect every person living with HIV by turning HIV, a serious medical condition that 20,000 Philadelphians live with currently, into jerk off material for idiots.

Relief

FrankKaren brought me some pizza on her way home from the movie. God bless her. She's so nice. What a rarity. She understood why I missed the movie and said I would LOVE it. I can't wait.

My backbreakingly heavy suitcase finally arrived at 12:45 AM! I had to unpack it in the hall to get it to the second floor! (Hint for over-packers: Use curbside check-in! They don't check for extra weight!) It was completely disheveled by TSA but everything was there, at least. I've got the desktop set up—even the iSight—and I'm extremely happy. Now I can respond to insults from youngsters in the gay.com chats without the 10 minute delay I get on my elderly laptop.

I'm hungry again, though, and there are no places open, even in in this increasingly guppified neighborhood. (I was getting the hairy eyeball from some local home-owning fags when I was outside screaming into my cell phone, trying to get the USAirways robot to understand me this afternoon!) I think I'll just go to sleep.

Nightmare

After being up all night from insomnia, I got to Philly at 11:15 this morning only to discover that USAirways has lost one of my bags, the one with MY COMPUTER IN IT!! My desktop computer, my backup and about 30 videotapes I have to work on in the next couple of weeks. Great.

I was kind of afraid that the TSA had confiscated it because there was also a bag with a rank jockstrap and a bottle of poppers, in it, so I wasn't very hopeful about getting them back.

I'm staying at my friend Karen's studio and I was supposed to meet her at 5:15 to see Bad Education. I took a much-needed nap.

A delivery company woke me up at 4:30 saying they found my bag and would deliver it between 6 and 10 tonight. I said I wouldn't be home and asked if they could they deliver it somewhere else, I'd get right back to them with the other address. There was NO PEN in an ARTIST'S STUDIO to write their number down. Of course, I forgot it and spent 15 minutes on the phone with a USAirways voice-activated system that couldn't understand a word I said! I called Karen at work to say I probably wouldn't make the movie and she had already left work and her cell phone was not on. AARRGGGHHH!!!

Then I was on hold for 20 minutes with USAirways to find out what I could do. The agent refused to give me the number of the delivery people but assured me it was on it's way. But to where??

Well, here I sit waiting for my bag. I cant leave and I'm fucking starving to death. Dammit!
