Saga Interview.
By Nevin Jefferson
From Nevin Dear Brian, My title is Nevin and I write a weekly column entitled "The Saga Continues'" for www.gaypride.com alongside with featurettes and The Seattle Gay News, sgn2@sgn.org. I'm additionally an Activist who's for the trigger and no longer himself. So, what do I need? I'd like to do an interview with you about your life on the road, your activism, and other contributions to the gay community. Single Gay Truckers are a myth and a slew of Queens will be flocking to you in groves. Not to fret, this isn't traditionally an affordable ploy to bag myself a trucker husband. I've been single and celibate for the beyond 6 years and plan on staying this way. Until God places the grownup meant for me in my life. Until then, I write, provide foods on wheels to PWA's for Lifelong Aids Alliance, Give talks for the Pierce County Aids Foundation, sing in the Church Choir, On the Prayer Commission, and am the spokesman for Fuzeon which has me giving press meetings to the World Wide Media. So, are you interested?
Nevin Jefferson/The Saga Continues: A simply excellent friend of mine grew to be a Trucker and I offered to full fill my fantasy of riding in a giant rig on the open toll road. This dream grew to be a nightmare when we experienced racism over the CB whole with the "N" word and other bigoted expressions. My friend quit fairly well mechanically afterwards because he couldn't take it any further. I advised him to either forget about it or talk about their mama's then call it a consult with. He didn't! Is racism still a issue on the road? Have you experienced any vibrant language over the CB?
Brian Davis/DJ Trucker: Actually, I infrequently turn on my CB and as a replacement want to take heed to music or OutQ, the gay radio station from my Sirius satellite radio or the dance CD's I used to work with in the clubs. I only use my CB all over traffic jams and at shippers or consignee's and that is a great 10-four simply excellent blood brother. Actually truckers don't use "simply excellent blood brother" anymore because that refers to the grownup being gay but I guess you would possibly just call me "simply excellent blood brother" anyway.
NJ/TSC: Truckers have the identical All-American Flavor of a Sports player; manly, rugged appears, and a successful demeanor. Did this photograph make you hesitate about being a Trucker?
BD/DJ Trucker: No but my chums were bowled over and amused when they figured out I was once going to be a trucker.
NJ/TSC: You're in a profession where Gays are made to feel excluded no longer to denote out in the corporate of Racist Rednecks and other Homophobic twits. Did this trigger you to fret about your well being and security?
BD/DJ Trucker: It's maybe no longer any worse that any other field. When I take heed to the gay satellite radio station, they get distinctive promptly truckers that decision into the exhibit too and that they haven't offered a issue in the slightest degree with gay folk or gay truckers. NJ/TSC: Are you a grownup's man?
BD/DJ Trucker: I'm single and accessible countrywide'.ooops, did I say that?
NJ/TSC: How antique are you? BD/DJ Trucker: I'm youthful than you are! NJ/TSC: Oh, in actuality! I'll have you ever recognise that I simply turned 37 on the twenty seventh of August. I was once born in 1966, I'll priceless resource you do the maths. (There was once a long pause of silence with vibes of disbelief and having one's brain blown obvious off of the neck.)
BD/DJ Trucker: I'm older than you?
NJ/TSC: Yep! And it is no longer very to late you may get me a present. I acquire Pink Flamingos. (In an effort to be honest and positioned an finish to the freaked out and baffled vibes coming reside from the opposite finish of the road. I determined to tell Brian my actual age.)
NJ/TSC: Actually, I'm 32! I need my readers to suppose that I'm older. Why? For the number one undemanding sense that there's nothing that a young snot nosed child can tell me about gay life that he haven't lived yet. The line went dead!
At first I theory the great young man took a vow of silence since he is shy, quiet, and introverted. After striking up I had two messages from my hot matter on my voice mail. When I also known as him to go back again, I offered his voice mail. I left him a message like we the 2 had been doing for the beyond 2 weeks with today being our fortunate day. The phone rang fairly well mechanically afterwards with a solely apologetic Roger Wilco who's phone went over and out in a direction of the interview.
BD/DJ Trucker: I guess you were still talking away on the phone were not you?
NJ/TSC: You offered it! The laughter from the opposite finish informed me that Brian was once relaxed and was once now into the consolation zone that was once being stylish. My Trucker Buddy now knew that he was once managing an eccentric fruitcake heavy on the nuts! Or he might just have belted down a unfold of shots to get him through this interview. It's imaginable! NJ/TSC: You were a DJ in a Circuit Bar in Phoenix plus you had a 9 to five to defend it company. Was fitting a Trucker a lifelong want or a specific factor to do for the sheer hell of it? Give me the dirt! For those no longer in the recognise, what's a Circuit Bar?
BD/DJ Trucker: Well a Circuit Bar is a nightclub that play the good possible recent in dance music and has visitors DJ's from round the world come in to spin. Being perch in the DJ booth above the dance ground overlooking a sea of hot sweaty nice looking shirtless guys was once impressive, have faith me but I needed to depart that each one in the back of. My day job was once fitting unbearable so I wanted to do a specific factor else. I had perpetually been attracted to traveling and trucking and I finally learned dreams wont take place if all you do is dream about them, you offered to jump in and do it. So I did it.
NJ/TSC: Are you mechanically prepared? How simply excellent are you beneath the hood?
BD/DJ Trucker: Is this a sex question? I took auto mechanics in high school but that is all a blur to me now, does that count?
NJ/TSC: Brian, all over our phone conversation you informed me that you just knew where the gas is going. Then the too cute story about your hands on experience in Trucking School that offered oily. Please relate!
BD/DJ Trucker: One evening in class, I was once out checking the engine beneath the hood when I screamed out "Oh my God!!" and a unfold of of my classmates offered here around in trouble and requested what offered here about and if I was once alright. I lifted my hand out of the engine to exhibit a great glob of grease laying on the pinnacle of my hand and Paul, one of my classmates hit me upside the head because all of them theory I caught my hand in a fan belt or a specific factor. Then everybody burst out in laughter.
NJ/TSC: One of the finest so many bullshit being introduced across the Gay Community is that AIDS is not traditionally a issue. Of direction, this made it open season on unsafe sex and risky habit of the disgusting form. What in actuality pisses me off is that Aids Organizations are losing donations because the Idiots of the Gay Press are telling readers that they're fools to donate and beef up these enterprises because AIDS is not traditionally a issue and hasn't been since 1996. People who depend these products and prepared are being slashed for that reason of lack of cash. I'm left with the harm that these twits have accomplished to folk who need priceless resource, care, and love. I volunteer for Lifelong Aids Alliance. The budget cuts that they needed to implement positioned a genuine hurting on them and their consumers. I awarded to take the folks on my path to their appointments since cab company is being sliced out of this methodology. They informed me their complications and I awarded them an answer. I'm that style of gay! As much as I write involving the fact of the overall procedure, I'm being thrown eternally into a brick wall whilst falling on deaf ears. Ouch! So can you do me and my dear readers a favor by getting on the horn and telling what you spot for your a half of the road?
BD/DJ Trucker: Well being relatively new to trucking I'm still learning about gay and AIDS concerns in the sector of trucking. That's where the Gay Truckers Association is on hand in convenient.
NJ/TSC: Okay, Brian! Tell me involving the shortage of all of those who were as regards to and dear to your heart. About what you're seeing and what you informed me. Your involvement with AIDS enterprises, Groups, and all of the first class issues that you just do to make this world a stronger place. That folk are still demise and that you just're caring for folk. Suicide being a great issue still. Tell me your honest thoughts on secure and safer sex. Should it be practiced in the slightest degree prices? Are your fellow Truckers practising secure sex or hauling a secret cargo? Of direction, they might be able to turn the fucking page. But, hey! We did our half!
BD/DJ Trucker: My first involvement with an AIDS institution was once when I lived in Washington DC to go back again in the mid 80's. There was once no longer much known about HIV or transmission to go back again then and masses of doctors does no longer deal with AIDS sufferers for that reason of their fear of contraction. One factor I take note rather well to go back again then was once attending an AIDS functionality and there was once a man who was once in the complicated phases of KS. I walked up to him and gave him a great hug. I was once so scared. I don't take note his title but I do take note that he needed to be hugged by anybody. Since that time I have accomplished volunteer work for option AIDS and gay enterprises. During the late 80's and early 90's my longtime chums were getting sick and demise. After each time a pal would die, I would hope that no more of my chums were sick but then I would have to make more clinic visits and attend funerals. It's in actuality stressful to peer all your chums die, the folks you have loved for so many years.
NJ/TSC: I did a road time out to Magic Mountain in California and San Francisco. I loved it! I get a natural and organic high on driving through the first class lands and seeing the sites. BD/DJ Trucker: I was once simply in San Francisco no longer too long ago all over the Folsom street fair.
NJ/TSC: Did you go?
BD/DJ Trucker: No, I did laundry as a replacement!
NJ/TSC: You household darling you! It's more advantageous to have recent dresses than being round dirty tramps at a Ho Street Fair. At least a specific factor offered here out recent in the wash! Do you use sheets or fabrics softer?
BD/DJ Trucker: Huh?
NJ/TSC: So, what's a life of a Trucker like? Are you welcomed with open legs and mouths across the States?
BD/DJ Trucker: Well its maybe no longer as sexually glamorous as best possible folk suppose, as a minimal for me it is not traditionally. I've perpetually heard all these truckers reports about folk driving beside a truck and whipping it out or flashing them but each time I visual charm down into automobiles all I see are elderly women studying a map or doing a crossword puzzle.
NJ/TSC: What's the dirt on Tearoom sex with out the purchasing baggage? Is this each Trucker's delight?
BD/DJ Trucker: Trucker's call the Rest Areas "pickle parks". I've only noticed one pickle.
NJ/TSC: When I was once on the road all over my time out I handed out the 2 flavored and acknowledge condoms to the "Our Sluts of The Stalls" sect. Then handed out the literature to the wives, in order that they would research it to their hubbies all over the time out. Yes, I'm a AIDS Activist who perpetually does his half to promote secure and safer sex. I additionally maintain the secure sex packages with my mug on the the front from my stint as Poster Boy for secure and safer sex for POCAAN (People of Color Against Aids Network). I pass out those from my fuller figure mannequin days. I guess you Bootsie and Purrfecto (My Kitties) that no man can visual charm at my three hundred plus size ass and can get it up.
BD/DJ Trucker: I guess that could be one way of practising secure sex.
NJ/TSC: Did you change into a Trucker for the sex or did you in actuality make your fantasy a fact because life on the road is a specific factor that you just in actuality wanted to do?
BD/DJ Trucker: I've perpetually loved driving and road journeys but if I was once driving to go back again from Dj'ing in Austin, Tx, I theory, gee it could be first class to simply drive all day, see the country and get paid for it so I made up my brain to alter careers and go into trucking. I pass over Dj'ing a whole lot but I don't pass over my corporate day job sitting in a maze of cubicles beneath florescent lights breathing recycled air all day. I've perpetually had a dj booth each place I've lived and my truck will be no the many. I'm operating on making a chunk 12volt DJ booth that I can defend in the to go back again of my sleeper berth. It'll maintain a company new meaning to the phrase mobile DJ.
NJ/TSC: People are beneath the impression that Trucker's get laid 24/7 with the 9 inch Trucker dick being a trick to turn for. Are you a solely sexually active gay or are you storing your cargo for the excellent dock?
BD/DJ Trucker: I haven't gotten laid because the Clinton Administration.
NJ/TSC: What are you finding for in a grownup? If you say "no longer me!", I'm going to succeed in through the phone and tear your tonsils out! Are you an incurable romantic? What must you return dwelling from to the road to?
BD/DJ Trucker: It's powerful to claim what I'm finding for in a man because there are this form of super amount of variables and nothing is determined in stone other than honest and caring, but I plan on driving 48 states for a unfold of years and purchase a dwelling in the country with several acres where I can have a unfold of horses and a great garden. Hopefully all over that time I can uncover anybody with similar interests. Fortunately with trucking, location of a boyfriend is no longer very a half since I can take my dwelling time anywhere in the country. It could be if I can uncover anybody who can go from side to side with me on get together. It gets in actuality lonely on the road.
NJ/TSC: Can I consideration you in a specific factor Black?

A Trucker four All Seasons!!
The characteristic articles about Gay Truckers in the rival rags perpetually dick-shift through "Tricks by CB", Tea Room Sex in the leisure stops, Sex in the sleepers of trucks, Hitchhikers picking ass since they didn't have the coins, and sexual adventures from the short lanes. The Truckers featured in these so-also known as exclusives were couples who gave their very own account of a Truckers life. Of direction when the copy offered stupid the matter detoured to sex. The single Truckers gave a sexual route of hot and horny stops with in depth this form of lot introduced in the rear. With all of the heavy action happening do any of these guys ever make their cut down-off dates on time? Is the life of each Gay Trucker an over haul of sex, lust, and sleaze bag follies? Or is there in actuality a Gay Trucker in the back of the wheel who enjoys life on the road whilst making a difference by being the many? That's a copy simply excellent blood brother!
