Because the outdoor swimming season has started, making our hearts very light and draws an significant amount of attention away from boys to physical pleasures of sportier character. Or that's not completely true. We simply enjoy the semi-dressed company of boys who prefer to start off their days with a few turqoise laps even more.

Because our boss say wonderful things like; "My bullshit flows more freely in the afternoon" and has a desk decorated with signs such as; "Things are getting worse, send more chocolate". And we love that, nearly as much as we would like to hang out and bs with bad boy teenager Woody Harrelson.

We roamed through grandpa's old library and found a tiny book called Ord på Vägen. A completely, to us, unknown Jakob Billström spelled out what we know, adore and find most frustrating when it come to love;

"Kärleken skall vara en gåva av en annans fria och för den själv likväl oemåtståndliga vilja. Den kärlek man erhåller av medlidande, efter böner, efter hot eller gräl ... vad värde har egentligen den? En kärlek som byggs på rättigheter är ingen kärlek."

Vi kan erövra det mesta vi åtrår utom ett: den äkta kärleken. Den är suveränt fri, går obönhörligt sina egna vägar. Hur vi än åstundar den - är det inte bättre att avstå hur det än svider, om den inte är helt frivillig? I kärleken måste givandets och tagandets vågskålar väga jämnt.

Because when we told our boss we thought it would be a good idea to corporatize social and environmental problems (bolagisera samhällsproblemen), he looked at us in that same doubtful way. Only so that when you do it, it's very attractive.

Because on the first day of our three-months-office-life experiment, we realized that the best thing about work is the weekly fruit basket and Friday afternoon drinks.

- På grund av bristande engagemang kommer vi tyvärr att lägga ner Omar's fan club. De stigande frimärkskostnaderna står inte i relation till mitt otillfredställda hångelbehov.
Hoppas du samtycker.

- Deal.
- Tack för de fina breven och nyquilsen.

- Nöjet var helt på min sida. X

"You've achieved success in your field when you don't know whether what you're doing is work or play," and "Marriage requires a special talent, like acting. Monogamy requires genius" are two quotes by Warren Beatty. And if you find the internet a reliable source of information, he is also cited saying that; "My notion of a wife at 40 is that a man should be able to change her, like a bank note, for two 20s."

Clearly, a black sheep lacking both genius, work and play, but still a fairly good explanation as to why he is looking so sharp in dark wool.

Because nothing quenches the thirst on a sweaty beach day as ice-cold coke with lemon, drunk through a straw, with sleeves rolled up and ray-bans on.

Because the great thing about native languages is that words
sometime ring much truer in it than others. And really,
romance is all about a mutual desire to see each other.

Får jag träffa dig ikväll?
Jag har ingen anledning till det
Tänkte först gå runt det, tänkte råka springa på dig

Men nu är är det bara så
Att jag orkar inte göra så
Antingen vill du träffa mig eller så vill du det inte

Vill du det inte så går jag nog hel ut ur det
När man var liten föll man jämt
Men nu ska det vara så jävla hemskt

Så fastän du kanske säger ja bara för att vara snäll
Får jag träffa dig ikväll?

Får jag gå precis så nära
Att min axel stryker vid din arm
Jag vill inte verka jobbig eller så men jag är varm
Och du ser kall ut 


Lyrics from the song Får jag? by Säkert!

Because you look like a guy who we would like to have living in one of our cupboards. We met him today and he was unusually, exceptionally nice, in addition to having messy hair and being unshaved in a very attractive way. He had to borrow our library card to print something, and maybe that was the only explanation to his civil behaviour . He then introduced himself to our other friend by saying that we are like yin and yang. In his world, that means that we are opposing forces who will never get along.
In our world it means that we complement each other in perfect harmony.

Because we can't remember the last time we saw a man in a tie and a plaid shirt. And because you encompass the very mis-leading notion of the man as a stable, funny, great dad, great lover, hard working and reliable God.

Because everything makes sense when we read that Robert has it's roots in the ancient Germanic name Hrodebert, a composition of honour (hrode) and light or shining (bert).
Our minds instantly think knight in shining armour, or simply, shiny, happy good times.

Because you obviously know that every other, third or fourth drink should be a glass of water.

Liljeholmsbron heter den. Perfekt gråtbro. Very scenic. Det är nog det jag hatar mest med stockholm, denna känsla att tvinga på andra sin kärlek. Känns sjukt ovärdigt och missförstått. Du är fantastiskt fin. Hoppas du drömmer sött. X

/-/
Hoppas du fick känna dig lite extra speciell igår. Uppvaktningen ska hädanefter vara av mindre störig karaktär.

:-)
Är du ledig idag?

Har du en cykel?

Ja jag har en cykel.
Vi kan ligga istället för att cykla.

Jag visste inte om du ville ses påklädd eller avklädd. Men i så fall får du gärna komma till Östermalm sen.

Med eller utan kläder?

De går väl att ta av?

Because you are R4, and the Greatest Brit we know.

Because dudes who so obviously part-time as models possess such clean cut good-lookingness that it makes most of the IKEA catalogue look messy.

Because you land perfectly in the grey zone between being a secret agent and a cast member from Singing in the rain. And because happy eyes is the most attractive thing we know.

Because out there on the waves you seem charismatic, agreeable and adaptable and you can adapt to just about any social situation, convincing others you are just like them. And with your flexibility, liberal attitude and lack of prejudice, you can find something interesting in just about anyone. But when your interest wanes, you depart; you cannot tolerate boredom. As an Explorer you like knowledge, adventure and the pleasures of the senses, and you are drawn to those who are enthusiastic, curious, creative and energetic-people like yourself. Sex is important to you, too. As a Negotiator, you have a big heart; you are flexible and sensitive to the feelings of others and you are driven to seek harmony in your social life. So you avoid conflict, as well as people who compete with you. You also avoid those who structure your time and block things from happening spontaneously. And you can feel pressured by other's needs. So you are attracted to individuals who share your "live and let live" attitude. Money is secondary to you, so you also respect individuals who can part with theirs, particularly when spending leads to adventure or improves the world. And you are drawn to people who are direct, decisive and tough minded to balance out your flexible, spontaneous, intuitive style.

Because it seems you just sat down in a photo booth to relax after a long lunch of cheese and wine, or maybe moules marinière, and while the busy streets of Paris roam about outside, the single lock of curl in your forehead makes the whispery sound of a flat b.

Because you are so very attractive, simply by being incredibly light-blue, laid-back, having kind eyes, bony fingers, dimples and the best seven letters in the world printed over your chest.

Because we love men, and when they don't respond to our telecom-based text messages, we send them poems via regular mail instead. And because we believe that the digital world sometime lack the mental clarity and pureness of heart that comes with analog communication.

Because your hair would make any black stallion jealous and a galactic shaman is borrowing our apartment, which makes your t-shirt and our pleasant cosmic energy a match made in the outer stratosphere.

Because you look classy in a reversed sports cap, seem to know how to drop a beat and certainly possess a few Justin-moves. And although Mr. Timberlake isn't one of our favourites, he does speak to our hearts;
"I wanna be your sky,
so blue and high,
and every time you think of me,
I wanna blow your mind",
or an even more striking all-round philosophy;
"I just want to enjoy my life and show this world how to care".

Because spring sunshine is followed by summer sun and swimming. And because standing on that yatch makes you look like a modern day Baron, similar to our new discovery Edward Bulwer-Lytton. First Baron Lytton, who not only coined the utterly romantic opening line; "It was a dark and stormy night" but also wrote the one-and-only manual to success; "Nothing is so contagious as enthusiasm... it is the genius of sincerity, and truth accomplishes no victories without it."

In fact, it comes to this: nobody is capable of really thinking about anyone, even in the worst calamity. For really thinking about that person every minute of the day, without letting one's thoughts be diverted by anything, by meals, by a fly that settles on one's cheek, by household duties, or by a sudden itch somewhere. But there are always flies and itches. That's why it is difficult to live.

We ususally find life pretty easy, but Albert Camus has a point in The Plague. Not that living is hard, but about brain capacity. Although certain persons tend to move into our brain, with age and by acquiring other passions, we've become better at diverting the mind towards trees, entrepreneurial dinosaurs and the importance of play. To blend out with the boy-think.

Because for some reason you makes us think of a younger, European Julian Casablancas. And after seeing Somewhere, the song I'll try anything once again reminds of us the genius of those New York boys and the simple beauty of well chosen words;

When I said; 'I can see me in your eyes',
you said; 'I can see you in my bed'.
That's not just friendship that's romance too,
you like music we can dance to.

Because, right now we are thinking about a boy to whom we have given the imaginary Native American name of Skinny Bear, who had us at "sluta larva dig" and what we really look forward to is the next time he will look into our eyes and smile.

And although we like the unity of smiles and beards and men and lips, we completely agree with Gandhi's overarching policy; "Throughout my life, all my activities have been motivated by the single objective of uniting hearts."

New man of our dreams Dallas Clayton does not only have the best first name and a boyish grace that melts our hearts. He is also a cosmic twin in the universe of optimism, very handsome, draws magically, speaks wisely, loves strangers, hangs out with kids and is the founder of A Very Awesome World (which is like this world, but even better.)

He is very much living the dream and; "If you ever have any doubts about whether or not you should do something totally new even though you have no blue print whatsoever and there is every possibility that you could fail completely, the answer is 100% YES!"

And, of course, he writes poetry;
NEW LOVE

Find something new today
to love and enjoy
like the rest of those familiar loves
that have topped your list for years.

It doesn’t have to come close
and likely it won’t
but it might
and if it did
boy, that’d sure make this a day to remember-
the day you set about
turning over rocks
and shaking the neighborhood trees
only to discover
exactly what it was
you didn’t even know you were looking for.

As if that wasn't enough, we have one of our slightly messed-up beardo favourites reading An Awesome Book aloud for our loving ears.

Because all kisses ought to be beautiful and spiritual, and because We feel fine.

Because we've realised that the great thing about being single is that you are allowed to be in love with several people at the same time. And because ivory skin and curly locks of gold makes us happier than three bears.

March 9th
21:26 - Hej, hej jag mår fint. Är du fortfarande hångelsugen?

March 10th
18:42 - Ja jag e lite sugen.

19:34 - Åh! Det verkar vara ett klokt beslut eftersom du har funderat i ett par timmar.

19:40 - Jag var inte sugen när messet kom.

19:54 - Skönt att du kommit på bättre tankar. Ska du inte komma över dåra?

20:09 - Nja, du får komma hit istället.

20:33 - "If a man speaks his mind in a forest, and no woman hears him, is he still wrong?"

Because while we are wondering what course in rudeness and mis-communication the majority of boys in Stockholm have taken, there are still some breathtakingly beautiful man's men out there to keep our spirits up.

Talking about Al Pacino, De Niro confirms our notion that, above all, confidence is essential when you are up for tough competition. “Al, over the years we’ve taken roles from one another. People have tried to compare us to one another, to pit us against each one another and to tear us apart personally. I’ve never seen the comparison frankly. I’m clearly much taller, more the leading-man type. Honestly, you just may be the finest actor of our generation – with the possible exception of me.”

Because the feet take a person to where one's heart is. And our feet like walking in the direction of straight jaw lines and green eyes.

We did a very simple, five-minute personality test, and although we all seem to be very different, there are only four classic categories behaviouralists divide us into. Pretty much, people who ask who? what? how? or why? Not suprsingly, we were deemed enthusiastic, but sometimes overwhelming, inventive but a dreamer, and unrealistic. (They made a point of that your biggest strength is also your biggest weakness.) Which is why we got the suggested solution to hang out more with people on the go, take a few risks, put up concrete goals and learn to concentrate, with only occasional lapses into the romantic.

Because it makes us extremely happy that people who search for "snake men great seducers, french boys, hairy boys, HOME IMPROVEMENT BABES, greek god photo shoots, hot american men, newest tom seleck photos, beard long hair lover, men and animals, Well, first of all, you must realize that I worship you," end up right here.

Because bearded, fearless men remind us of one of our current favorite topics - Death. We are fascinated by this since it is the one subject that truly emphasizes the wonders of being alive and the mystery of what, if anything, lies ahead. Deepak Chopra writes in Life After Death;

After death we gradually stop being local. We see ourselves as we really are from the soul's perspective: everywhere at once. This adjustment is probably the biggest obstacle any of us will encounter in the astral planes. Right now you are the center of the universe because infinity extends in all directions, yet someone on the other side of the world is also at the center of the universe, because infinity extends on all sides of him, too. If both of you are centers of the universe, you must both be at the same location. The fact that you appear to be in different places is a sensory artefact. It's based on sights and sounds, which are local events. You are not a local event.

No,we're probably not. But we still love boys, or as Chopra puts it;

... souls aren't drifting through the astral atmosphere but are directed by love itself. Love is a vibration, older than humanity itself. But the principle of directedness is very human: we go where our deepest desires take us.

Because we would like to see some evolution of the kind where people start spending more same space-same time together, instead of exercising their fingers on smart phones or staring at an utterly non-arousing facebook page.

Because, according to marketers, it is never the best product that wins, but the most attractive offer. This explains why we have some work to do when it comes to promoting our services.

Looking at it from the other side, we are always open for proposals that include spring, biking, dark, wavy hair and Italian shoes.

Because those dreamy bedroom eyes are a killer. And you are gorgeous. Simply gorgeous.
