Welcome

Welcome to John's and Max's Blog!

Previously Known As : Nuanced and Shaded
Men have no choice over birth and death; except everything in between.
We have chosen ours.


Thank you for visiting.

We are two gay men, facing life's obstacles as presumably as difficult as yours.

We are not perpetuating insolence and arrogance; we are merely sharing our experience.

This is our blog. This is where we share our lives with the rest of the world. This is where we engrave our triumphs and struggles, for us to cherish, in hopes that you would, as well.

Please leave your comments. Your feedbacks are important to us.

Keep In View

My work sucks; everybody is well aware of that. Even the martians got the live feed on it.

As time consuming as my life is, at the moment, I still have this blog in mind.

With that, I am putting down a list of Keep-in-Views of events that had surrounded my life which had managed to happen while I am on my hectic routine.

Detailed entries will be created, I promise, and I can only hope that time would grant me the deliverence I need from these desperate times.

My Favorite New Series

Alright, fine.

I don't watch TV much, but there are series that I would die for. Aside from CSI (all 3 'flavors'), House M.D. and Desperate Housewives, the newest favorite on my list would be Brothers and Sisters. [Note : Added a column of "Our Favorites". Hope this would flush away our cool points amongst our friends.]

I am not sure why, but amidst their craziness, they're really making sense and in a very connected and arguable manner. I just love the way they would indirectly discuss a matter every conceivable aspect, and just make sense.

I watched an episode earlier and I was speechless. Nothing more can be said about it except how true it was. Plain and simple.

"No one's 'bi.' Ever meet a seventy-year-old bisexual? At some point they make a choice. Thus the expression 'Bi now, Gay later'" - Kevin Walker in disagreeing that Chad, his closeted gay lover, could actually be bisexual.

Note : Please don't ask me how long it took for me to look up the quote. It was certainly not fun, but here it is...
