Today is ask MCB/CG day. We’re both on vacation this week and can answer questions in (semi) real time so we decided to do this now rather than wait until the end of the week like we usually do. Readers come and go just like bogs do so we usually do this on once [...]

HNT - 13

Thursday, November 17th, 2005 @ 12:00 am | HNT, Photos | By: Midwestern City Boy

Our photograph this week focuses on one of the games we played when we were younger; Scrabble, a game which we spent many a night before bed playing.

Lights, Camera, Sex, Pizza

Wednesday, November 16th, 2005 @ 8:00 pm | Sex | By: Midwestern City Boy

Our HNT photo shoot is fast becoming a well-established tradition. We usually take the photographs on Tuesday and call out for pizza afterwards.

We got a couple of e-mails recently which asked some interesting questions so I decided to post part of our replies here as well as respond directly.
The first asked our thoughts and reservations about blogging about intimate parts of our relationship including posting NC-17 photographs.
The second asked about blogging and secrecy/anonymity given that most of [...]
