Post by William BrownsteinSomething that should have been done years ago ..... How about a group get together. Some of us started posting again recently and most live in the east coast in and around NYC or a few hours away by car or plane.
What do you think Kevin, Richie, Paul and even you Lee? You can always fly out here. And then there's Kelly, Jerry and Joey from R.I too. Even Hermie would be welcome despite my feud with him over the years. Anyone else lurking that I left out would also be nice to see.
Hey we're not getting any younger and many of us have known each other for years. Isn't it about time? So much we can all do over a weekend or over a few days in NY, like Broadway, concerts, tourist sites, sporting events, museums, gay attractions in the city and Greenwich Village and of course some nice dining out.
It would take some planning but I'm sure would be well worth it and something that would finally bring some of us together, which is long overdue.
So who's' in and/or what do you think?
William, did you have a "near death experience" or taking some kind of drug or vitamin that is putting you in a state of euphoria? Is this someone else masquarading as William? I've always thought of this type of thing but I knew that it wouldn't never ever happen for many different reasons. I haven't seen Joey or Jerry or Kelly's name on Rasap for eons. Sorry William, but we are not living in a utopian world where every human being is loving, kind, and forgiving. However, there is an afterlife, and its very possible, if not likely, that we will see whoever we want to see just by thinking of the person's name. Of course I could be delusional about this but we will never know until we all get there. I once had a chance to go to the Bronx Zoo with Jerry and his young friend who just happened to be in my neighborhood, but I declined out of shyness. I know, it sounds ridiculous. Anyway, I don't think your idea will ever come to be unfortunately, but it real nice that you have turned into a different William that we all used to know. Perhaps getting older does make us more wiser and more forgiving of the past.
Hey Kevin, why in the world would you want the late Captain Phil and Ronny to be at a Rasap reunion when the both of them were hated throughout the years? Either you were being sarcastic or maybe you are turning a new leaf? I always hinted to Ronny that I wanted to see him because I was so curious about him and his homestead. As for Phil, he was actually a likable person and he wanted me to live out in Wyoming in his town because he "fell in love with me." He loved playing those video games of being a pilot. I myself love jets and go on youtube and watch videos of people taking videos of their jet flights, showing their meals they were given, the views from the windows, and videos of the pilots actually flying the jets. His anger I guess came from his health issues and other things I suppose.
I remember Lee from the webtv days but I don't think he remembers me. I used to joke with him that I wanted an egg roll with pork fried rice to be sent to me by Fedex or something..LOL. I know he had some kind of feud with another gay person who lived in Santa Monica, CA. I forgot his name but he is no where to be found. So many people from webtv are all gone. I think most are deceased. At least 40 people used to be on webtv and some had their own groups full of porn of course. But they are gone, no where to be found.
As for Ronny, I do miss him, even if he did repeat the same things everyday , like a diary of sorts. He was very intelligent, and I felt that he was a very friendly person. I used to make jokes that he had a cemetary on his property full of dead young Mexican boys. hahahaha. I was always so curious to see his face at least, and everyone else for that matter. We knew what Jerry looked like, and Paul and a few others, and you saw me on my webtv page. But for the most part, people did not want to reveal their face. Having a reunion as William suggested could never happen because of the fear of the unknown, meaning that people are afraid to see other people they have never met. When we were younger, going on blind dates was scary but oh so very exciting also. Now that we are older, sex is no longer that important anymore. Been there , done that, as the saying goes. If I received an invitation to a high school reunion or college reunion, I would never go. The past is dead and gone. I joined Facebook the other night, and the next day I deleted the account. I only found 3 people that I used to know ages ago, but I felt that there was no reason to go back in time. People change, times change, and I think its best to only live one day at a time. Going back in time can be kind of sad and best to be forgotten if we can get rid of our memories but our brains won't allow it. I don't know...maybe its me that feels this way, while others love facebook and would love to have contact with someone you once knew as a child or when you were young so long ago. If its a long lost relative, then I would like to get in touch again, but for the most part, the people we have met in life long ago are no longer the people you used to know. Its best not to go back in time, in my opinion.
