Very handsome. I didn’t recognize him until you identified him. And he is still #4 highest rated model on the site, (not counting the newbies from this past year).

He is a super nice guy. He does to travel a lot.
I'm kinda surprised noone has commented on this video. It is a bit of a bummer that his actual crypt is behind locked doors. But I think that migt be a good thing in the present point of our human evolution. If his grave site and tombstone/plaque was within inches of the public, it might lead some homophobic neanderthal attention seekers to try to deface it with foul graffiti or other forms of vandalism.
I met Matthew's mother Judy Sheperd back around 2003 when she visited the campus of USF in Tampa. She gave a public address to students and the public preaching against bullying and hate crimes. Particularly against LGBT people. It was a crowded venue where she showed a video display of the trial of the two guys who tortured Matthew to within inches of death and then left him tied against a fence like a discarded dog. She said her office back home where she had a foundation that kept her on these national speaking tours, would still daily in 2003 get unsolicited faxes from "Rev." Fred Phelps of the Westboro Baptist Church. The faxes would say vile things along the lines of, Matt was defintely burning in hell. He deserved to die. God hates fags. Etc, etc. (For being a homosexual.)
But the other great takeaway from this video is how beautiful the architecture is of the National Cathedral. I'm very impressed. It had never really been on my radar before. But now that I've seen glimpses of the outside and inside... It's kind of on my bucket list now.
I don't know how the rest of you feel. Even on film I sensed the energy of the space and the reverence and awe of those tourists inside of it.

It is a beautiful cathedral. I was at Matthews funeral and it was really tough. There was so many protesters and my friend was about ready to fight him because he was friends with Matthew. Seeing little kids also holding hateful signs was something else. I also attended many fundraisers for Matthew Sherpard in Denver. I am glad you got to meet his Mom she is great. I feel like things got better after that with hate crime laws but we have definitely got backwards some lately.

I heard some very sad news today that Robbie Robertson of The Band passed away at age 80. I guess this is all part of getting old, that more and more of the icons of our youth begin to pass. RIP Robbie.

I just got an alert on my phone that Bob Barker passed away at age 99, a great long run. Many remember him as the long time host of The Price is Right and as an animals rights advocate. But as a child growing up in Brooklyn, I had a schoolboy crush on him as host of Truth or Consequences, lol. RIP Bob Barker.

I was just thinking about Bob Barker the other day. I thought of him punching somebody from some movie, and then wondered, is he alive? Could I have missed that?

I believe he passed today or at least his family announced it today. He was a great advocate for animals. Seemed to be a very good man.
And it was Adam Sandler in Happy Gilmore.
Now this is an eye opener:

Thanks for responding to the post Mark. I didn't realize you had such a close connection to the family and the funeral service itself. I remember seeing photos in the press of people called "Matthew's Angels" who held up white sheets outside and tried to block the view of mourners from the protesters and all of their ugly vulgar signs and verbal abuse.
Thanks for sharing that Br. I found the actor's NDE to be quite interesting.
