He looks like shit in Castle. What happened?
It's been 9 years since Firefly and 6 years since Serenity. I refer you to David Boreanaz from Angel/Bones fame and notice the noticeable physical differences in just a few short years. It's a phenomenon known as "aging" and while not a problem for black people, it's the bane of the white man.
Blax, it's done foo.

Depends on your description of the term "author". The "publish or perish" rule is still active in the liberal arts, so most people involved in the business are authors of some sort, even if their publications are limited to scientific work. Yet I know people that have authored several dozens books and some hundred scientific articles during their career.
The teaching is probably more interesting. At least over here. As docent at a University, you're a public official, that technically can't be fired, gets one of the best health injurances available in the world and a high social standing. They give you a starting payment of 4.175,91 Euro per month (pay grade W3) for about 4-8 hours of actual teaching per week (of course excluding the non-terms). That's more than $80,000 a year for a pretty relaxed job (and you get more money the older you get). A job, that gives you enough free time for research or to earn additional money with whatever you like to do.
And the "whatever you like to do" field is pretty broad for people who took their studies seriously and took a look beyond the boarders of their specific subject. 😉

Well, the same goes for university professors here. Six figure salary for 2-3 days of work a week.

I guess it would depend on if you define specific sexual acts themselves as gay or define instead by the gender of your partner.
On an unrelated note, the Romans didn't consider getting f*cked in the ass they to be gay. They just thought you were a pussy for "taking" it.

how do you define gay? I think i would be less likely to define any act as a "gay act". instead, it's what sex the person finds appealing. my 2 cents.
This is my view as well. If some guy likes getting it in the ass from a hot chick I don't think that's gay. People have can have a lot of bizarre fetishes.
Originally posted by LuciusGetting it in the ass is gay whether it's a strapon or a real one, I'm not sure why there's a difference here. I don't know how you can even argue the heterosexuality of it.

And what makes any particular sexual act "gay?" What is intrinsic about getting it in the ass that makes it gay? Because gay people do it? Well shit, lesbians eat each other out, is that gay as well?
