Wow! I'm really flattered by this thoughtful write-up about my blog over on GayDemon.com (site not work friendly, link OK). After taking it all in, I couldn't help but wonder how I might have turned out if my parents had said half as many nice things to me as a child. Perhaps things would've been different if only they'd operated an online guide to gay porn. Sadly, it wasn't meant to be. ...
Editor's Pick:
Kenneth In The 212 is obviously a blog centered in New York City. This is the blog of one Kenneth M. Walsh who is one of the more prolific bloggers I have ever run across. His blog routinely has some 3-5 entries per day, all of which, amazingly enough, seem somehow relevant, if personal. Here is another honest man who takes his own queer look at society, entertainment, pop culture, books - just about everything under the sun - and even including sports. He has a wonderful post which leads, via linkage, to a great story on Billie Jean King. Here, he enumerates her own incredible accomplishments in raising the level of women's tennis as well as her being an icon for personal honesty. This blog is wide-ranging and sort of muscular in it's confident treatment of events, yet it approaches things in a humble way. He is sort of fearless, I think, and he seems to look for challenges in his blogging, if I may be so bold to interpret his intentions. It's a refreshing look at things - let me say that - and he even goes into some obscure areas which redound personally to him, but which obviously resonate with people who follow and comment. Popular and probably deservedly so, I like this blog and the wide range of issues and stuff Mr. Walsh confronts. He seems extremely human and that's a good thing.

Kudos to you! And I'm NOT just saying that because I'm a (212) "contributor." I've told you, I have friends who read you from LA to Detroit, and they all trust and rely on (and value) your opinion.
Totally agree with this review; your blog is awesome. You do a great job of making the personal universal, which makes for interesting reading. I'm actually not a big blog fan - but that's because so few can pull off what you do with kennth in the (212). There's intelligence and integrity behind the words, pictures, links, etc. - Steven Froias, triCityNews editor, Asbury Park, NJ
Congrats on the shout out! Well deserved.
I couldn't agree more with the Demon, Kenneth - you keep on rockin' it, pal and deserve all the kudos!
