......2 Evolve.............. Change Is Afoot.............

no not me.............................I'm doing enough of that personal growth crap for a busload!!

But the blog is going to be changing slightly.

There is going to be some new content.... as in bums, penises, nude men, erections and the occasional porn review.

NO - it is not going to become a full on porn blog - there are plenty of those out there.

It is just going to start to include a few little (and not so little) things of an adult nature.

So yes you will get now get that annoying "Adult Content Ahead" silly blogger warning - but that's all.

Thanks much.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend.

Tomorrow I am Sydney bound for a week of relaxing, walking, touring and photo snapping.

Chat soon my little 2 Centers.

Cheers

Damien

......2 Know............. Q and A session............

...........since none of you bitches have ever considered profiling me.... HARRUMPH !! ... I am kind of doing my own ***cough LOSER! cough*** lol...

...actually - in honour of passing my little 500K milestone recently - I am going to share with you some of the comments and questions I've got over the years - yes I keep them all, I'm anal like that - and I'm going to respond to them :)....

..so I guess I'm going to profile YOU the 2 Centers and the occasional hater - DAYUM ! again not about me :)....... my clumsy attempts at cool repartee aside........... here we go.....

"I love your blog!"

--Well thank you :) (surely you knew I was going to open with that one right?)

"Gay New Jew - Come explore everything from Porn & People to Faith & Friends with me - what the fuck does THAT mean?"

-- It means it's my blog and these are some of the things that are of interest to me and important to me... and yes, I'm a New Jew (Convert) and I'm Gay....

"You cover a lot but you don't always seem to have much to say"

--Part of that comes from the fact that I am more than a little ADD.... I can sometimes have a VERY short attention span and my mind flits back and forth between many things - some of them with absolutely NO commonality whatsoever.

"O...M...G... Can we have one blog post without your depression in it?"

--Sure !! here's one......... oh wait...............

"How can you be a gay Jew?"

--G-d doesn't mind that I'm gay.... really....

"I don't get your blog - it's all over the place"

--Thank you.

"Enough with the depression stuff.... more of the hot men stuff"

--Um - no..... and yes - to a point.

"I'm a very overweight person and I think you were very brave for putting your self on your blog like you did man."

--Thank you. Actually it was a VERY big deal for me. Not for the blog or readers - but ME.

"Where's the porn? More Porn!"

--Working on it :)

"Are you secretly Simon the Sex Worker"

--You saw the pics of me right?

"Do you blog about American stuff because Australia is so boring?"

--Actually I blog about a lot of American topics because I am part American, love America, lived there, and most of my readers are American. Plus I would like to think that a lot of what I blog about isn't nation specific.

"Were you really a ballet dancer or are you a fat person trying to make out that he wasn't always fat so we feel sorry for you?"

--I don't know where to start with this one.

"Please - no more Susan Boyle posts"

--Too late.

"Are you in love with Scott at Bill In Exile?"

--Love ....... no. Little bit of envious hero-worship.... potentially.

"Are you hot for Brenton at Aussielicious?"

--Define "hot for" - Yes Brenton is HOT. I've met him in person after all. But no - I am not HOT for Brenton. Actually, I admire Brenton's drive to get out there and do shit than I do his butt or hotness.

"You use a blog like therapy"

--Yeah I do sometimes....

"Do more Aussie men."

--Oh I'm trying!! - oh ... you mean profile more Australian hotties? I can do that.

"Worst fucking blog. Always boring."

--The always part of that sentence implies you keep coming back.

and my personal favourite.............

"Your blog is a mess. I like that"

-- And I like your patronage.

Thanks all and keep the comments coming - whenever I get a good chunk of 'em I'm gonna do this again :)

And to all of you - thanks for visiting.

Shalom

......OMFG......................... 200 000 hits ............ !!!!!!!.....................

………….200,000 !!!!!!!

……HOLY SHIT-BALLS GUYS – YOU FUCKERS TOTALLY ROCK !!!!!

So in celebration of this august event………… allow me to introduce to you my favourite bloggers and their oh so august selves. Without these blogs out there.... I would NOT be here. These are also where most of my visitors come from. So how about we pay it forward shall we :)

These are the daily must reads that I visit and also the ones that I draw inspiration from. These people are smart, witty and keeping it real, which in blog-land can be quite the rare thing. These people also were sources of inspiration early on in the life of my blog.

Enjoy – and my personal thanks to each and every one of you who has visited / visits the blog and continues to join me on this creative and personal journey of mine that is 2 Cents Worth Down Under.

Todah Arubah my 2 Cent’rs!!

My Boy Brenton………………..

Yes - that's his banner at the top of my blog. Brenton at Aussielicious is one of four blogs that I began reading religiously when I first discovered blogs, and he has been my mentor for my own blogging. B is a remarkable man. He is attractive, talented, wise, and putting himself out there pursuing his interests and enriching himself without it being a “look at me – I’m fantastic” kind of thing. His blog is a great read. I don’t know how he does it but he always has the most fantastic pics and Aussielicious remains a fresh and intriguing blog to this day.

My Man Scott……………………

Scott at Bill In Exile is one of the first blogs I ever read. What struck me about it was how sharp everything was, and still is. Scott brings the wit, the porn, the razor sharp political commentary and - something I just love - military porn (if you don’t know what it is….. go to his blog and look it up). Yes the military said no to me and yes I vicariously live through it on his blog :) Scott has been profiled on my blog and the depth of this man is never ending. And if it sounds like I’m kissing Scott’s arse – I could only HOPE to do that :)

My Fair Maiden Sue……………….

Sue at Fair View Sue. She loves gay porn. She’s got one of the most dazzling smiles I have ever seen. She is a talented painter of water colours. And she is my main Maiden. Sue has a blog that is truly unique in the gay porn blog world. Not only is she personally acquainted with some of the big names in porn, but she is also one our biggest supporters and someone who spent many years professionally fighting HIV. This is a woman who demands our respect and she certainly has mine.

My Mistress……. Lady MJ…………

From the very first visit to the Mistress’s blog - Infomaniac - this one could not help but submit to this hot Canadian Beaver. Infomaniac satisfies the part of this one’s personality that is both bizarre and unusual, but oh so much fun. This one frequently laughs so hard this one often has a little bit of pee coming out. If you desire a break from reality, go visit the Mistress. She will see to it that the Infomaniac Houseboys get you settled as you await her entry. After all, I’ve been Mr Nude Infomaniac for almost a year now and it is a title I - as the Mistress’ Honorary Slave - wears proudly.

My Main Geek Victor ………….

Viktors blog is Maybe Its Just Me. Aside from sharing a mutual love of Tin Tits herself – that’s Wonder Woman to the unlearned – Viktor shares my love of comics, smart men, current affairs and he puts himself out there as a black gay man refusing to tow the Down Low line. Adding to all this is that he is one of the warmest men I have met in a long time.

My Adorkable Mikey……………….

Mr Garcia at This Is A Blog For The Lonely gets me hot………… really. If I was around he wouldn't be lonely for long. Take a look at that smile and tell me you don’t get a good feeling in your bad place. Then, take a second to realise that the bad place is your brain. Yet another example of intelligent blogging that keeps one coming back for more. With a mix of pop culture, politics and shameless pics of himself and his many hikes in the wilderness, the adorkable one has me in thrall.

Now there are several other bloggers that I am inspired by – PLEASE do not take your omission from here as anything negative. If I put on here all the times I was inspired by a blog post I saw on one of the blogs that I list on 2 Cents Worth Down Under, this post would be so long I couldn’t fit it on here………. Simply said…. Thank you all.

Shalom

Damien
