Michael's Mailbox

michaelblog16.jpgHey Guys,

Every once in a while I like to answer some of the many questions I get either posted on my blog, or directly to my mailbox.

Many wanted to know who wrote that letter signed by the Pines Property Owners Association? In my opinion it came from the president Alan Brockman. He approached me at a party a week ago, foaming at the mouth, telling me that my boyfriend, Richard has no more say when it comes to Fire Island. For seven years I’ve been going to the Pines and no one has ever threatened me with lawyers, but now that my lover’s retired from the board, it’s a free for all. Oh, little correction Mr. Brockman (or whoever wrote that poor excuse of an unsigned letter), Richard’s been contributing money to the organization well BEFORE I was - how did he put it? - “selling my body in the streets of Moscow.” But I guess at your age, along with your writing skills, your memory is not your strongest point.

Every year, like a clock, Richard pulls out his checkbook and signs a $5,000 contribution to the Pines, a community he loves and has spent a lifetime promoting and helping. This year, after the latest developments, he decided to forgo his charity. Can you blame him? Good going there Brockman. Money that could have been put to good use now won’t be. I hope you enjoyed getting all your frustration out, it was a costly flexing of muscles on your part. You show them!

After my entry on Iran hanging two gay boys just for fun of it, I got a lot of questions asking me whether I even liked Muslims. I guess my answer to that is, I can’t. See, they’re not very likable guys these days. What is their contribution to society besides oil and an army of suicide bombers? As Bill Maher said on one of his shows, “The last good idea to come from them in the last 100 years is that stoning should be done at night, it’s cooler.”

And since you got me started again on this topic, please stop telling me that they do this out of “poverty and desperation.” The London bombers were neither. They came from comfortable backgrounds, by the way Osama was quite wealthy himself, educated in some of the most prestigious universities.

On a whole other topic, for quite some time now, I’ve been getting questions about Eddie Stone. I agree, he’s quite sweet and fuckable. He’s a good-looking kid. I’m just not crazy about the shape of his head. I think it’s too long and, well, hard to fit in the screen. When he gives blowjobs, the cameraman’s always forced to cut off the top of his head. But other than that, yes, he’s quite marvelous.

One reader told me I should stick to porn and leave politics to others. Well, this is my blog, and I’ll politicize if I want to.

And my favorite comment of the week, a reader who called me a "bloody cunt." I guess that's what I am.

Love

Michael

I don't think you should just stick to porn (even though you are quite fabulous in your movies). You are smart, insightful..and at times a little brash, but that's why I love reading your blog, and try to send people your way through my blog! Keep up the good work Michael!

Politics, porn, or any other subject. I always look forward to reading Michael's blog. Informative, entertaining and dead-on.

That's racist, no matter what excuse you give for it. You're hating 1.6 billion people based on a very small minority of suicide bombers which most muslims also declare is going totally against Islam.

Who cares if you are an opinionated asshole. You fucking make my day!

Dear Mr. Lucas,
My partner and I have been together for 14 years. We watched Juvie Boys this past Sunday and picked up some great ass play techniques! Hot, Hot, Hot ~ and Yummy! Thanks for teaching some "old dogs" some new tricks!

"An army of suicide bombers." Really?!?!? If scholar B. Lewis is right, there are a billion Muslims in the world. And out of that billion there is "an army of suicide bombers?"
The people who use Islam for their political purposes through violence do not represent the faith. Does this mean that Muslims do not have work to do? Of course not, but taking a line from a comic who is not even funny is not astute nor fair to the billion of Muslims across the world who are not represented by the ones wh ue terror.

Michael, I have been reading your blog regularly for some time now, and find it entertaining and well written. I might not agree with some of your more "political" comments, but as you say, it is your blog, and I can appreciate where you are coming from although I would not normally add a comment to disagree with something you have said, I feel I must in this case.

You are totally wrong in saying you are a "bloody cunt", I think a "big prick" is more apt! LOL Please, please "keep it up"!!

at least your honest.

did you cut your hair?

Posted by: the Yankee at August 1, 2005 08:37 PM

i find you refreshing and quite well read....i may not agree with everything you say, but you do say your piece with intelect and a conviction that is very lacking in some gay circles.... i will say this, however.... i fear it is easier to read your thoughts than to listen to you speak them.... watching those beautiful lips move would force me to forget anything you had to say!!!
peace and blessings!!

That's a really hot picture of you! : )

Politics affects Pornographers too.

Hi baby!
You really need to take some time off.
Why not take a trip to Portugal. Combine vacation with male/actor hunt. There (the Algarave Riviera)you will fine the finest men all over the globe. I know, I've been around.

Like the your new hair do. Why look like Peter North, when you can look like a million dollars!

Love 'Ya! Take good care of your self.

Ps. read what you wrote about Stone. I agree.
What about the hot Shane Rollins? What a cutie and what a beautiful cock!!!!! Sign him up, please!

I disagree with a good amount of Michaels political blog entries, but LOVE the fact that he says whatever he wants and isn't wrapping it ion PC bullshit......keep it real, raw, and up ML!!

Posted by: Brian at August 2, 2005 02:42 PM

i really enjoy reading your blog, but what the fuck is going on right now in your mind?

i think, you can't say you don't like muslims. that's racist and ignorant!

by the way, what the hell do you mean with:
"See, they’re not very likable guys these days."

i've a lot of muslims as friends and their absolutely likeable.

maybe remember world war II! these days, they thought, being jewish isn't likeable! just to see how ignorant such an expression is.

well, why should you care about my opinion anyway. but i just needed to say that.

Posted by: rico at August 2, 2005 02:47 PM

While I can sympathise with your perspective to an extent, I should probably warn you that I now despise all Christians because of the Crusades when they wantonly attacked and attempted to slaughter Muslims by the hundreds of thousands. Wells and food were poisoned, fields burned, and soil salted to prevent the growth of crops. Of course, the (mostly individual) perpetrators of such acts were acting on their own and were killed either in or post-action, but hey...just because it doesn't involve gelginite doesn't mean that it's not a suicide attack.

It's a pity that you'd write something like this. The rest of your blog gave me the impression that you weren't quite so shallow.

Andrei, dorogoi! vse eto ochen' ochen' zabavno, no ya poteryala tvoi telefon. Ya v New Yorke i vozvraschaus' v Sarajevo v kontse avgusta. Pozvoni mne po moemy Bosniiskomu mobilniku ili napishi kak s toboi svazatsya. Tseluyou.

Hey Michael.....have you ever felt like your balls we're on a chopping block and everyone has an axe? Guess you can't say you don't like anyone these days without being attacked.

I may not entirely agree with "not liking muslims" thing, but I can see where it comes from. Even though you really can't hate an entire group for a small portions actions, but you have to ask yourself...what is the rest of that group doing to prevent these things being carried out in the faith's name? Sometimes, a platform of non-involvement (see the Catholic Church and its postion on the Holocaust for a point of reference) is the same as giving it a green light.

Do I hate all Muslims? No. But the truth is they really aren't likeable guys. Even those "not involved" directly have provided reason not to be popular. Do some research on it. They're a hateful, synical, in-tolerant, closed-minded, warlike collection of people...and those are the good ones.

I'm reminded of what George Orwell said in the Animal Farm...."In the end, the animals could not distinguish which guests were men and which were filthy pigs". Take that how ever you like.

Watch porn....not CNN,
Mike

Ok being a muslim means you follow islam. Islam is a religion, NOT A RACE. Michael Lucas isnt a racist. What is so funny is that if Lucas said he hated Pat Robertson or Jerry Falwell, most of the people who read a Blog written by a gay porn star would concur. Islam preaches a similar or worse intolerance about homosexuality. I think Michael Lucas is right on in being troubled by Islam, or christianity for that matter.
