Ahem, Brent.

[andrewlittle]

Brent - it's my nature to be patient and let people tell their stories in their own time. It seems to me, since it's been a week, I have been patient long enough. Either there's news to share, or you made a pathetic, feeble, immature attempt to garner attention - which, BTW, is MY territory, okay.

Believing you to be quite mature and straight-forward, I am guessing that there is, indeed, news afoot - a story to be expounded upon, perhaps. I am gathering that the rather obvious "slip" was simply a way to get someone to ask about that to which you referred - let's what was that - oh, yes, a HUSBAND. Hmmm.

So, Brent, another of our auspicious Presbyterians, has some news to share, folks. And, it has something to do with this:
Yay! Welcome Natyv! This really is a family thing ... I'm hoping my husband will be posting here soon, too, and ... oh, wait ... I've said too much.

Please, Brent, we're waiting - patiently. :hissy::hissy::hissy:

Ooooooooh.... Brent... spill. :pray:

[Pablo Rafael]

I also would like to hear about this "husband".

You know there is more to Brent than his kind, compassionate, intellectually brilliant, humorous posts let on.

What do we know about him?

1. Brent, or should I say Dunk Rittenhouse, has a PORN STAR name. (Dunk, didn't I see you in... oh wait, this might be better in a PM.)
2. He has a sexy fireman locked up in the basement for who knows what sordid purpose.
3. Now talk of this 'husband" :eek:

I was starting to worry about the sort of man I was flirting with. (Well numbers 1 and 2 weren't so bad. But number 3 has me concerned.)

Oh Andy, he has been gone all weekend, so I don't know when he will respond. (Not that I'm keeping track of him or anything.)

Tu Amigo, Hunk, I mean... Pablo

Exactly as it should be, Hunk. That gives us all time to embroider a much more devious scenario, and let our imaginations run amok. He will, of course, come back with some lame, boring version of a story that will just be way too insipid to be true.

Then we can have a lottery or pool to decide which one of us came up with the "truth" about Brent.

Of course, if we want to do it differently than in church, we could just wait for Brent's answer. Good grief, no - what a waste of a perfect opportunity to pursue the real story.

[BrentRichards]

what a lovely welcome back ... jeesh.

Okay, you set 'em up, I'll knock 'em down:

My husband comment was an (obviously unsuccessful) attempt at sarcasm ... I'm hoping my husband will be joining me here on the forum 'cause I'm hoping to HAVE one one of these days ... believe me, Andy and all, when I land me a honey, I will NOT hint, I'll FLAUNT!

Dave (U-Dog) will tell you that I do some stand-up and/or improv comedy ... not that he's seen it, but he seemed to believe me when I said it, so I'm guessing he'll tell you. I have said that I got my start in porn, which is how I ended up in comedy ... it just sorta went that way ... and so on ... not one of my best lines, I hope. But Dunk Rittenhouse is definitely in retirement, before ever having a career at all. People sometimes say "We know all gay men have naked pictures of themselves somewhere" ... I am happy to contradict them. No WMD's in my photo album.

I do not actually have that fireman in my basement for sordid or non-sordid purposes. Sigh. I need a moment now...

Lastly, while you were all (all two of you ... Jen was nice, as always) berating me behind my back, I was spending a lovely weekend with a friend on his sailboat on the Chesapeake Bay ... very peaceful. Before any more rumors fester into facts, he is my FRIEND, period. Alas, he and I had this just friends conversation AGAIN, as one or both of us must have been sending mixed signals this weekend ... I'm still in remedial gay, and don't always know the "rules" on what is friendly flirting and what is "putting the moves on." I thought men were simpler ... no touch, no foul. Oh well. Nonetheless, there is no way he could be interpreted as anything even approaching my now or future hubby, so I was (I want the record to be clear on this) ENTIRELY INNOCENT the whole time you were talking about me here.

Lastly lastly, I am indignant that a thread has now started with the potential to draw a long string of extraneous posts making me the total center of attention, a role I despise (Uh, honey, that spotlight's a little red for my complexion, don't you think? ... yeah, do take care of that. That's a dear.) .... now where was I? Oh yeah -do NOT, under any circumstances, start making a spectacle of me as you have of poor Pablo (see, Hunk, I'm defending you!).

[Pablo Rafael]

He will, of course, come back with some lame, boring version of a story that will just be way too insipid to be true.


Andy, you are indeed a prophet.

Brent is a Welshman and a Presbyterian. You know how they are. They are calm, proper and dignified. But get them at a soccer game, and they end up losing all control and killing each other.

Now we just need to get below the restrained, decent surface that Brent presents and see what wild animal lurks beneath. We just need to aggravate him enough to get his true colors to show. :poke:

Don't worry Brent, I have no intention of making you the center of attention. . Remember that we already determined that it's all about me.

Tu Amigo, Pablo

[andrewlittle]

what a lovely welcome back ... jeesh.
Why, thank you! We try.

Okay, you set 'em up, I'll knock 'em down:

Well, okay - unfortunately, that's believable - and just down right inconsiderate. You couldn't even leave a little bit of a place for us to romp at your expense, could you?

Dave (U-Dog) will tell you that I do some stand-up and/or improv comedy ... not that he's seen it, but he seemed to believe me when I said it, so I'm guessing he'll tell you.
Okay, Brent, here's a clue - pick someone believable to back you up, alright? Now, where do you do this stand-up routine - I am looking for my next victim - oh, I mean person to visit in 3D.

I have said that I got my start in porn, which is how I ended up in comedy ... it just sorta went that way ... and so on ... not one of my best lines, I hope.

I am happy to contradict them. No WMD's in my photo album.
I sense deep disappointment from Pablo on this. He said he was "disturbed" by it, but that disturbance was fueled by a good bit of prurient interest, I think. His typing seemed to get a little shaky after that comment. <Wink> <Wink>

I do not actually have that fireman in my basement for sordid or non-sordid purposes. Sigh. I need a moment now...
Deliveries are available for the right price.

Lastly, while you were all (all two of you ...

I am so sorry! Not about the lovely weekend, which I hope you enjoyed thoroughly, but about the learning curve. I have no concept of that, and it will be the last thing I will make light of. It does, indeed, have to be confusing in the least. It sounds like your friend is very open about communicating, so I hope that made it safer and easier - if not less disappointing.

Lastly lastly, I am indignant that a thread has now started with the potential to draw a long string of extraneous posts making me the total center of attention, a role I despise (Uh, honey, that spotlight's a little red for my complexion, don't you think? ... yeah, do take care of that.

Now this is a bunch of tripe. A stand-up comic who doesn't want to be the center of attention - puleeese. This was an open invitation, which was obviously not lost on our dear Hunk, Pablo. So, I think we can clearly see those things we can run amok with, and those things we can't.

So, Pablo, the game is on, eh. We're going to search for the real Dunk that resides within the breast of our reserved Brent. Something tells me the prurient interest is ongoing.

By the way, is it just coincidence that Hunk and Dunk are such similar names? Kinda reeks of Dash'n'Dave, if you ask me.

[dsdrane]

Reeks!?

(Harrumph.)

Now, what's this about Brent's breast??:cool:

[BrentRichards]

Well, okay - unfortunately, that's believable - and just down right inconsiderate. You couldn't even leave a little bit of a place for us to romp at your expense, could you?

Sorry, I'll try to be more ambiguous and vulnerable in the future.


Okay, Brent, here's a clue - pick someone believable to back you up, alright? Now, where do you do this stand-up routine - I am looking for my next victim - oh, I mean person to visit in 3D.

I have no gigs coming up. As far as you know.


Deliveries are available for the right price.

I'll wait on this. Not in the budget at the moment. (Line item: Purchase of hunky fireman for basement confinement .... budgeted: $0. Damn.)

If you're not careful, people will find out you have a compassionate heart! This is tremendously kind of you Andrew. I had no real intention of getting serious in the midst of this inanity (is that a word?), nor do I now, but yes, coming out late has some things in common with going through middle school all over again. At least there's no open locker doors to walk into while trying to look cool. And yes, my friend is very up-front and open in communication, and we've talked several times. The very real issue (aside from the fact that he is very physically attractive) is that I am emotionally primed to be in a relationship, and simultaneously hungry for close gay friendships (which I haven't had before) --confusing the two, at least emotionally, if not mentally, is very easy to do. If that makes sense ... which of course it doesn't, because I'm not even sure what I mean. This guy is a great friend, but would not even be an option for a boyfriend, mostly because he has NO interest in the spiritual side of life at all ... I can't discuss it with him at all, which is NOT an option for a partner. We MUST be able to share that part of life.

Jeesh, enough of this ... back to the senseless sniping! (But really Andy, thanks! My little gay heart is grateful for your empathy, and I promise not to tell anyone you were nice to me ... oops.)

Ah dear Brent,

If I may be so presumptuous as to interject myself into this? You really make perfect sense Brent. The fact that you "came out" later in life means that you have lived a lonely life. You have not been known as a friend or as a lover, that rotten closet thing. It's damned important to have both and you're playing catch up. Also, your biological clock is ticking, er, so to speak. Of course you are anxious to have someone special in your life, that is soooo normal. I'm sorry that this guy doesn't have the requisite esoteric side. Damn, and he has a sailboat too. You are obviously well liked around here, that guy just hasn't wandered onto the soulforce site yet, may he come along soon. (that's the Jewish form of a blessing). amen.

[BrentRichards]

Man, just when I'm trying to get a good wiseguy string going ... thank you so much Paul, I'm crying now (and that's ok, it's good).

Actually I've been on the verge of tears all day ... partly over this, but just having a bumming day in general. You are right, I have always described myself as a profoundly lonely person, and up until 2 years ago, it was because I refused to accept who I am. Wouldn't it be nice if we could just snap our fingers, change our minds about past stupidity, and suddenly escape all of its consequences?

I am FAR more of an optimist than I sound like right now, but thanks for listening, and caring!

[BrentRichards]

Reeks!?

(Harrumph.)

Now, what's this about Brent's breast??:cool:

That's too close to true for comfort.

[Zerbie]

Dearest Brent,

What you had to say here makes absolute sense. In fact, hasn't the phenomenon been dubbed "gay adolesence"?

Unraveling where friendship spills over into other territory is a tough one, and one that happens across all sexual orientations. I know what you mean about the various levels of feeling and intimacy. We just kinda find our way along as we go, I believe.

Sorry about the bum day. Those SUCK! They're fresh in my mind too, since I've been having whole strings of 'em lately (damn dentist!)

Hang in there Brent! You are at a new beginning. :love:

[BrentRichards]

Brent is a Welshman and a Presbyterian. You know how they are. They are calm, proper and dignified. But get them at a soccer game, and they end up losing all control and killing each other.

Good, and mostly true, though the Welsh generally scorn soccer in favor of rugby.

Now we just need to get below the restrained, decent surface that Brent presents and see what wild animal lurks beneath. We just need to aggravate him enough to get his true colors to show. :poke:

Oddly, just yesterday I was discussing Native American animal totems (http://www.legendsofamerica.com/NA-Totems.html)with some friends (as one does), and they had me pegged as either a hawk, a cougar, or a horse (don't EVEN go there...) So maybe that's helpful here?

Don't worry Brent, I have no intention of making you the center of attention. . Remember that we already determined that it's all about me.

Tu Amigo, Pablo

I won't forget, I promise.

[Pablo Rafael]

Alright, alright!

So much for the hugs and back to the original purpose of this thread which is to reveal Brent's darker side that he has been hiding from us all.

I want to know just what all the rest of you know about him. (Taking up the tone of Lilly Tomlin as the telephone operator) I'm not a snoopy person, and I don't mean to pry, but just what has he been up to?

Just from my personal dealings with him on that camping trip the two of us took to Quebec earlier this summer I learned that the guy can get pretty wild. (Like those Welshman in their rugby games.)

In fact it was during that very first night of the camping trip that I lost my...
Oops, sorry Brent. right, right, right!

Okay. I'm pretty good at reading between the lines here. I'm afraid you've let the proverbial cat out of the bag, Pablo. You played rugby with Brent and "lost"!! I'm on to you.

[BrentRichards]

There is a very rude Welsh Rugby t-shirt out there, for which I should apologize in advance...

[Pablo Rafael]

It seems that no one had any qualms about picking on me in the "Pablo" thread for fourteen pages, but now that its time to pick on Brentyou all are letting this thread fall to the bottom of the pile. Everyone is suddenly so very nice and sympathetic. Why was no one nice and sympathetic to me? :mad: I could yell out, "What does Brent have that I don't?" but the last time I said that (in relation to Dash) I was given a quite comprehensive list.

Even Andy, the author of this thread hasn't been around. And I think we should give poor old Andy some respect. Well, if not respect, at least humor him. Remember going dotty will probably happen to all of us someday.

Brent, where can I get one of those rugby shirts you mentioned. It would be good to wear to school. :D

Tu Amigo, Pablo

[Jennifer5]

So what exactly should we be bugging Brent about then?


I mean, if you want us to bug him, we'll need something to play off of...:rolleyes:

[wmanion]

Well, from what I hear...he has a thing for pumpkins...not sure where I heard it but I am sure it was a reliable source.


Bill

[Jennifer5]

So, if one of you lucky guys around here is ever lucky anough to get Brent, then you must call him "Pumpkin".....:rolleyes:

[u-dog]

Brent has a thing about pumpkins!!!! I'm stunned!!!!!!!!

Wait that doesn't work; let's try again:

I'm absolutley appalled concerning Brent and the pumpkins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry guys, no matter how many exclamation points I put in; I just can't get shocked. Just doesn't work for me.

I guess I should just be thankful that we're no longer comparing whose dancing banana is the biggest. (And let's not even mention zuccini.)

Tu Amigo, Pablo

[wmanion]

You made me think of cucumbers...I would love to have some sliced cucumubers and onions in vingegar and water. That is going on my grocery list!! Oh, and Pablo even though this thread is about Brent..it is really all about YOU and we aren't forgetting.

And here I must tell you the story about when my older son (then 13) pulled something out of his pocket for me and accidentally handed me a condom. The "oh s**t!" look on his face was great! So, making a productive moment of it (and gagging back the laughter), I told him that since I knew he had it, he'd simply have to show me he knew how to use it ... this look was even better, until I explained that this would involve a zucchini ... not a real life demonstration. Ah, great moments in parenting.

MMM... sliced marinated cucumbers, with lemon pepper, on that tiny little rye bread and cream cheese. Happens to be an Episcopal parish hall favorite, in my experience. And they're not too bad for you, until you have 73.

[wmanion]

LOL...I would love to have seen the look on his face. I had similar situations with my three. GREAT parenting skills there Brent. I am still laughing.

Yet another conversation heading to that inappropriate place... :rolleyes:



Back to BRENT, what is your most embarrassing memory?

[Pablo Rafael]

Yet another conversation heading to that inappropriate place... :rolleyes:


I take offense at that statement!
Have we ever let a thread degenerate?!
Have we ever said inappropriate things?!
Have we not always spoken with dignity and erudition (I like that word.)?!
I challenge you to come up with ONE single example!

On deeper reflection, however, maybe it woud be best to answer none of the above questions. Forget that I brought it up.

In the interests of keeping this thread alive, i am grabbing the post that shows the most promise.

Cucumbers - let's see - there's got to be some theme we can pick up here. help me out, will you.

Well, there's always the proctologist joke about ... Well, perhaps not.

[wmanion]

Okay a theme with cucumbers...let's see...I can't really think of anything right off hand, Andrew...you have me in quite a pickle here.

Bill

[BrentRichards]

As long as no one makes any dill-related jokes, I'll be happy.

Whoa, that's just not kosher.

[andrewlittle]

Since the cucumber theme went almost nowhere, what do we do next.

I'm still intrigued by Pablo's willingness to battle u-dog for the favors of Brent. Of course, the word "favors" could ahve several connotations.

Exactly what favors is Brent offering, do you think?

[Jennifer5]

But Andy, how is it really even a battle at all? :rolleyes:

For Pablo, there's hope... for Dave, this must simply be torture as he has a wife and says he's a good christian man... therefore cheating on her wouldn't really be acceptable.

Or are you really just wanting to see how far Pablo will go to get Brent?:lol:

Well, not for a minute would I think that u-dog would actually want Brent's favors - okay, maybe he wouldn't take advantage of them being available - but his twisted psyche seems to propel him towards machismo and fisticuffs. I can just see him chest-beating as I write. Of course, there's always the problem that u-dog would have to splint his wrists if he was actually going to fight - if you know what I mean.

[BrentRichards]

Exactly what favors is Brent offering, do you think?

Penn State Football Tickets (Go State, Beat Irish!)

Ouch! That's just nasty ... put away the claws, girls.

[u-dog]

Ouch! That's just nasty ... put away the claws, girls.

I'm just ignoring him and hoping he'll go away.

[dsdrane]

...y'all is nuts.

[Jennifer5]

and this surprises you??? :rofl:

Uhh... yeah...that's right, Football Tickets, yeah...that's it.

And don't the rest of you wish YOU were getting them!

Pablo

And Dave, I suggest we settle this with an arm wrestle. Let's see those biceps!

How did I get sucked into this? If you want to impress and attract Brent you need to brush up on your reformed theology. Quote a little Calvin in his ear and he'll follow you anywhere!

[Pablo Rafael]

Thanks for the tip, Dave

Ahem...

Thought Satan instills his poision and fans the flames of corrupt desires within us, we are not yet carried by an external force to the commission of sin, but our own flesh entices us, and we willingly yield to its allurements. - Calvin


It behooves us to accomplish what God requires of us even when we are in the greatest despair respecting the results. - Calvin


Every one of us is, even from his mother's womb, a craftsman of idols. - Calvin

(Waiting expectantly and nervously..............)

[u-dog]

That should do it :rofl::rofl::rofl: (laughs to himself a sinister laugh)

[BrentRichards]

I might have been more partial to one of these:

“God tolerates even our stammering, and pardons our ignorance whenever something inadvertently escapes us - as, indeed, without this mercy there would be no freedom to pray”

“You must submit to supreme suffering in order to discover the completion of joy”

“There is not one blade of grass, there is no color in this world that is not intended to make us rejoice”

Regarding the football tickets ... I watched the first half of the PSU-Notre Dame game (condolences, Irish fans) ... get this ... in the downtown gay bar at PSU. What a neat thing ... I always knew it was there as a student, but would NEVER have even considered going in (I didn't go to STRAIGHT bars then!) and there was no rainbow sign outside then, either! ... delightful crowd, and very very nostalgic ... healing, in a wierd way. Plus, hearing the gay crowd go wild for every good PSU play was fun. I'd so love to move back to that town.

[BrentRichards]

By the by, I think coffee and a good book might go further for me than Calvin quotes ;)

I don't know, Brent...I found Pablo's offerings to be more...and uncomfortably so...seductive than yours. But then...it was a dark and fundy primordial soup from which I arose, lo these many years ago.

Is there a therapist in the house?:eek::confused::D

Well, yeah, me. Shall I pencil you in?

[dsdrane]

Well, yeah, me. Shall I pencil you in?

Hey, hey...!

There shall be no "penciling" of any kind.

Now...just step away from the writing implement....

You all may think this is just a feeble attempt to direct some of the annoying, unwanted attention away from the "Pick on Pablo" thread. But would I ever do that? How dare you even think such a thing!

Let's see what scandal can I try to pin on Brent this time.

I've heard some very interesting rumors since the last post on this thread:

Did you know Brent got kicked out of his house? Some violent altercation with the landlord. I think parties and wild animals had something to do with it. (At least one animal, canine I believe.)

Also lost a job. Some people just aren't reliable. I think there was some flirting involved, gasp!

Oh and he has gone to prison since this thread was last active. I hear he's a pretty tough case. Already had some teeth knocked out. (OK, one tooth, and it wasn't actually knocked out. Just let me fudge the facts to make the gossip a little more interesting, will you?)

Now let's see if Brent's sweet, kind reputation can get him out of this.

Ha, ha, ha! (Evil cartoon charater laugh.)

Pablo

[andrewlittle]

Could you get any more pathetic?

Well, yes! I think you could - we'll just give you a little more time.

Come one, Pablo, let's talk about the fact that you seem to be so needy right now - and what better place to do that than on Brent's thread. Tell us, just what is it that you need so bad that you come to this thread to expose yourself.

[Pablo Rafael]

I'm tearing my hair out in frustration with you guys! (And there isn't that much of it to begin with.)
:headbang:

This thread is to pick on Brent.

Do you hear me, BRENT!

Must I say it again, not me but BRENT!

What is it about me that makes everyone want to pick on me?
Now, pick on the person about whom this thread is written.

Yes Andy, I can get even more pathetic, and plan to do so in the near future. :D

Oh, Keltic, put away the popcorn, no need to stay up late. This is one of those things that seems to have some promise, but in actuality is always a disapointment.

ITs because you're so cute when youre mad. :)

Even I think that's true - ooh, what does that mean?

[BrentRichards]

I will respond to this just as soon as I get paroled.

[Jennifer5]

Nice try buddy... but I heard that YOU were the one who got kicked out of your house and put in jail?

I don't know why you must insist upon trying to suddenly blame all of your personnal issues on Brent, what did he ever do to you? Sweet Brent just signs onto this site, not knowing what to expect... you begin to blame him for these things. SHAME ON YOU.:smashy:

[Pablo Rafael]

I will make one last response before I go find some hard surface (concrete or stone preferred) to BANG MY HEAD AGAINST!

I see that I was right. Nothing sticks to Brent. He has all but confessed and still everything just slides off him. He IS just too sweet and adorable for anyone to think bad about him. (Politics in the future?)

I will tell all of you I am ANGRY at the moment. And also very cute; I should take a picture. :D
