Here’s a few pics from MAL 2008, including some from the puppy play party that you’ve been clamoring for. The guy with the rope in his mouth wasn’t wearing all the gear that the other puppies were, but he was the most fun one to watch, maybe because we could see his face. Method acting. I don’t do many of …

I’ve been in DC for a few days for Mid-Atlantic Leather. The list of theme parties over the weekend is long and varied, but so far I’ve mostly been hanging out in the lobby of the host hotel and watching the shenanigans.
