From all appearances, if he does come out of the closet, it will be to stumble straight into a hospital bed in an HIV ward.

The BIG question nobody wants to answer is what’s so freaking “gay” about dying of HIV well before one’s time?

............................................................

I get a survey every year from my health insurer, if I don’t fill it out they will raise my premiums.

They ask things like, what I eat and how much of it, how I exercise and how often, do I use tobacco products, alcohol?

I quit smoking about 4 years ago but prior to that, I simply lied on the form and said that I had never smoked and do not drink alcoholic beverages. The part about alcoholic beverages is true but it’s still none of their business.

They have already raised the rates of admitted tobacco users. Alcohol is next, no matter if you drink in moderation or not. Then will come raises for people who don’t exercise, then for people who don’t eat their correct amount of fruit and veggies.

The only question that is notably absent is whether I lead the queer life style, a known and very expensive, for insurers, killer.
