| Naked: An EXCLUSIVE Interview with Gay Hero Daniel Choi »
07/10/2009
Choi For Now
I am nearing the end of my stay at Towleroad; Andy will be back next week, and I just have another couple of things to post.
One item I'll be posting later on is another interview, this one with the heroic Dan Choi—he had a lot of very interesting things to say in our phone conversation, and I'm hopeful that I asked him some good questions. The first thing he told me was that he was naked, but we'll get into that and issues with more substance soon enough.
It's been a pleasure and a nightmare taking over in Andy's absence, a pleasure as always to read the variety of comments and to have the ability to reach a large, appreciative, critical audience, and a nightmare trying to keep up with the day's news and maintain Andy's level of excellence.
Thanks to you and to Andy and Mike for having me.— Matthew Rettenmund

Ask Lt. Dan if he's thought about going into the shrimping business.

Well, thanks for your good work. I am glad that you have not been as obsessed with "Bruno" as Andy was.

"Critical" being a very key component of many comments!
Thanks for the great work.

Matt,
This time you did much more than "minding-the-store". Congrads.

A wise man said every one can be replaced, ANDY has some big shoes to fill and you should know that I'm positive he's pleased. As are many of us bitchy queens. Enjoy the rest of your summer, I'll be checking out your blog as well.
