Eisenhower Nights

It was here where we discovered ourselves and knew how to be free. It was here where our friendships were many times challenged only to end up victorious and stronger in the end.

- Pulsar,
Infinity Of The Moment

Smoke rings form just outside the window
While different band album covers manifest
Themselves as a screensaver
In the computer on top of the table.
The magic sing microphone
Comfortably lies on the sofa chair
As empty beer bottles line up
like domino pieces beside
The bathroom door,
It tells me of a recently concluded
party held in the unit.
Familiar voices still echoes inside
The empty place
As the hang-over smell of leftover beer
Reminds me that
I used to be familiar with this scene.

Who would have thought that
After three years, eight months
And countless days later
The traditions we left after the
Paragon Contingents would
Eventually reemerge,
And take root
In a place called Eisenhower.

10 Important Lessons From G4M (Pamphlet Number One)

This is the Darkstar speaking...
For Remington Rand:


Mission Objectives: The existence of a G4M account is based on the premise of establishing an immediate base of operations in case of an unexpected "emancipation protocol." In times of great distress, the only way the phanksmaster could move on is casting his eyes on the "vast green fields" that the website offers.

G4M could also serve as a temporary staging ground for some brief and occassional "civil wars," which ordinarly last for a day. It is also a good refuge during "vanity attacks," which the phanksmaster experiences since his "encounters with the bunnies." And for more noble reasons, G4M serves as a venue for monitoring friends and acquaintances and for expansion of PLU networks.

10 General Rules For A Healthy and Stress-Free G4M-ing Experience

1. Always maintain "group" as an official status in the profile. Unless brief incursion wars or strong displays of buddy-ship would permit a "temporary change of status."

2. The more revealing the picture is, the more members would check it out. Therefore, it is wise to use a revealing picture as a main profile for vanity and attention grabbing purposes.

3. G4M maintains a heirarcy composed of different levels. Basic premise: The more goodlooking, masculine and gym toned your body is, the higher you are in the heirarchy. Therefore, effems, skinny twinks and dark-skinned chubbies fall in the lowest category.

4. It is unwise to deliberately seek sex, group-sex, or relationship in the website. But in the spirit of pragmatism, be open to possibilities. Just be prepared with the unforseen results and complications of having some "little activities" beyond the website

5. G4M is a website full of pretentious, promiscuous and hypocrite individuals. Expect to encounter a lot of ego-crushers especially from the upper heirarchy.

6. However, a lot of genuinely serious, intellectual and receptive members abound in the website as well. They mostly belong to the lower heirarchy. They have different reasons for joining the website but as a general rule, these people seek friendship, support group and most importantly, relationships.

7. Do not give your number if you don't want to invite complications. Share your personal information if you are 100% sure that the other party's aim is friendship and nothing more

8. Many members would claim that they are average and simple. But expect that their attitude doesn't share the same claim. Be wary of people hiding in somebody else's picture - G4M has a very mean and generally untamed environment. Loosers who can't afford to stand for themselves resort to using other pics for their carnal objectives.

9. Never engage in a conversation with a kid if you don't want to have a headache. Talk to elders instead and bask in the wisdom they bring.

10. G4M is a hook-up site. But it doesn't mean you won't find anything interesting beyond sex in that place. Explore, and be amazed with what you will discover.
