They are tasty.

Banks get a bad rap. They do! I worked for one - well, two actually, one in the UK, and one here in Canada, and though the second one drove me quite bonkers, I still have some mild affection for the industry. Because they paid me well, and that's all that matters really, isn't it? I mean forget sky-high credit card interest rates, nickel-and-diming service charges, a propensity to turn a quick trip to the bank to pay your gas bill in to a one-hour lesson in lining-up, and inept management that lends money to all the wrong people, and then throws the entire world economy into chaos, the banks are our friends. They mean well, they really do.

At least the TD Bank does. They are special. They gave me some free sunglasses on Pride Day. They have bright green frames that look like they glow in the dark and the name of the bank is printed on the sides in black letters. I will wear them all the time so that the whole world knows how nice the TD Bank really is.

But, smart folks that they are, it's not just the fluorescent green sunglasses that the TD Bank uses to win us gay boys over. Nooooo, they bring out the big guns, a parade of rather attractive young men in swim suits that I'm thinking you'll never see the likes of behind the counters. During Pride, they hang outside the TD branch at Church and Wellesley, the centre of the gay universe, like a flock of go-go dancers on a smoke break. Thus providing one of THE photo ops of Pride, in my humble opinion.

Trojan does this too. They have their own gaggle of moonlighting strippers dressed as gladiators, cheek to cheek with the TD muffins, peddling the joys of condoms. Or at least that's what I think they are doing. Gladiators always used condoms, didn't they? The advertising message kind of gets lost amidst that sea of unnaturally smooth chests and tight speedos.

Anyway, one of the TD Bank hawkers caught my eye in particular, a wholesome young man in the Steve Reeves tradition, who should go far, if not behind the counters of the TD bank, at least in the male escort business.



There are couple more of him behind the cut ( there would be more but I don't want to seem more like a perv) plus a roundup of other folks who provided distraction on Church Street before and after the actual parade. While the cool, wet weather for much of the day meant that most kept their shirts - and shorts - on, there is a bit of flesh on display too, so I have to give the obligatory NSFW warning. Unless you work for the TD bank, where, it seems, anything goes.

Did I mention I bank there already? And on behalf of starving young strippers everywhere, I encourage you to do the same.

Clicky?

After giving it to him for 2 lunches, Alan said he didn't like it :(

I made a sandwich with it today to try it. It isn't bad, but is on the bland side. I guess if you like strong peanut butter taste, you might not like it. I'll finish the rest of it and try the sunflower seed one next. (I'd rather not waste the jar - it cost over $4.00!)

(Or maybe I can get Alan to eat american cheese sandwiches?)

Lots of layoffs at work today, two from my group and a few other people that I was friends with. Not fun. I survived, but morale sure took a hit. I thought I'd heard about all of them, but then I saw another (former) coworker post on Facebook that she was now unemployed too. :/ I sure hope that's all for a while. A long while.

On the plus side, my parents are here!
