Gratuitous James Franciscus (1934-1991)

Marooned (1969)

Beneath The Planet Of The Apes (1970)

I can't tell you how many times a certain horny 11-12 year old boy used Mr. Franciscus as masturbatory fodder—especially from the Apes movie…

He was taken from us far too soon. COD is listed as heart failure from emphysema, but with the staggering number of deaths that marked the early 90s, my mind immediately goes to one place and how celebrity passings from AIDS were always reported as something else.

I Am Incorrigible

I was sitting at the same table with this guy and his girlfriend yesterday at CopperStar. We chatted a bit and then went back to our respective tasks. About a half hour later when another guy showed up and introduced himself to a guy at a different table and said, "So nice to finally meet you," this guy turned to his girlfriend and whispered, "Grindr." I burst out laughing, leaned over and said "That's exactly what I was thinking!"

Nice people. Hope to fun into them again.
