About Ramblings of a Hopeless Khowaga

Welcome to my Web site. My name is Chris, and I’ll be your host. I\'m an opinionated, snarky, gay academic with a predilection for the history, the Arab world, languages, photography, food, and music. I live in Austin, Texas. You can read more about me, learn 100 random things about me, and if you’re wondering what the heck a khowaga is, click here. Feel free to browse, read, and leave comments!

Just So We’re Clear …

… I do not ever need to see Vladimir Putin shirtless again, thank you.

At breakfast in the hotel lobby yesterday morning, they were playing CNN (I mistook it for Fox News … I can’t decide whether I was relieved or horrified when I realized my mistake). I was down there for about 45 minutes, and the bit about Putin posing shirtless was on four times.

Yes, he’s fit. He also looks like Mr. Potatohead. And just because he has pecs doesn’t mean that I want to see them. I mean, our last president was apparently hung like an anaconda. Where was the news about that? (Well, other than that damned blue dress … )

So, thanks CNN, but I’m living Putin free. If I want beefcake, I can just dial up Fleshbot from here on out all by myself.
