But as it has been a couple days since my last entry it time to try to catch up while I&#8217;m sitting here in the airport. Well last week was International Mr. Leather [<a href=\"http:\/www.imrl.com\">IML<\/a>] and I&#8217;ve never been so&#8211;bored. Mind you I&#8217;m always bored at these events. They breed contempt because they are all abouts the big buffed guys or the crappy Daddy_ type getting laid. And not really about the comradarie that everyone says these are are all about. Every year I say I&#8217;m hot going back, but at the last minute I care hoping that thus will be the year whenein everyone is goingto be cool and welcoming. Only to be let down ! One great thing is seeing people Who you haven&#8217;t Seen in a few years And if I had gotten out off my sullen, sour mood, I might have had a little NSA sex myself. Alas it was met meant to be. So once again this is when I promise that I&#8217;m not going next year. But who am I kidding? it will be at my favorite Chicago hotel next year (the grande dame herself) the Chicago Hilton! If just to see how the event is pulled off I&#8217;ll probably go and with enough Prozac and Paxil and whatever else, I might have as good as or better time than I&#8217;ve had this time. It cant get much worse-I hope!<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a shot of the 2008 winners.<center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.imrl.com\/images\/2008winners2.jpg\"\/><\/center><center><\/p>\n<p>See you at IML 2009 at one of my favorite hotels the  Chicago Hilton &#038; Towers<br \/>\n<a href=\"www.hilton.com\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www1.hilton.com\/ts\/en_US\/hotels\/content\/CHICHHH\/media\/images\/photo_gallery\/CHICHHH_Hilton_Chicago_gallery_welcome.jpg\" title=\"Chicago Hilton Hotel &#038; Towers\" class=\"alignnone\" width=\"416\" height=\"425\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the road again.
