A gay-porn star, has committed suicide after becoming a suspect in a workplace shooting. He was 18 years old.
Christopher Luke McAteer, a model who performed under the name Clay in at least five scenes, died on Sunday night (13 April) in Kentucky.
It began after 8pm at Japenese Restaurant on Saturday where McAteer had just been fired for making threats.
Around 15 minutes later, employees claimed McAteer drove by in his car and fired five shots at the building. No one was hurt.
He was found later that evening in Butler County where it is clear he had shot himself.
One of the best rated gay website mygaysites has said the Clays movies have now been removed.

    I work from home whenever I want. I do try to have a few days away once a year but as I don't have specific hours, I can rest or do fun things whenever I want anyway.

    Health permitting, I work year-round. But then, what I do doesn't feel like work.

      I can't really afford holidays at the moment, since if l did, l would make a bee line for a luxery resort on the Gold Coast, (can't get enough of the theme parks up there, and the nice albeit stinking hot weather).

      I usually go into the city, and spend a day there, and some of the night?

      Nothing beats the Hotel Sofitel, 35 floor, coffee shop and spectacular views of the city!

      And the flight up there with Quantas, (love those cool little meal things). Hate the cheaper options, tried Virgin once, great overall, but the bun in plastic bag option was lousy by comparison.

    As a B2B business owner with clients, there is never really any such thing as a vacation.

    Having said that, I do take a few vacations a year (in fact, I am on one right now, four-day weekend at Comic Con Chicago with my son). But that simply means I am working less, in between the times I am doing vacationy things.

      Well, aren't you the motherload of useful information? Six little meaningless one liner posts and all in the Off Topic forum. If you're trying to get your post count up ... well, I'll just shut up and let you find out for yourself. lol.

    I vacate in order to engage.

    In the 'should-be blurry, always-is' precision of the flip twixt Zenville and Engines On, I rip my next Excalibur from the sand, and run in for the kill. Or mebbe the LEVEL UP. Yeah, so I may be slain as I exercise all choice, but my young clock ticks fast already like the wisetruewise guys say it will when seconds mark instead of offer, and so, from my VACATION, I proffer

    WORK!


    KZyme clearly BZrk.

    Here goees.

    *'hem*

    All fool runs out wherever
    rip your heart from your sleeve
    and spew your spent blood
    till horizons glow
    with the PREVIOUSLY BELIEVED
    red of the dead.

    Pays to go suck
    on bumdrifty smoothio
    till the ONE THING
    hauls your sorry ass
    from the bliss
    of beaching out
    on squished crustacean hiss
    of relentless water
    against your embryosoft rock
    of planet
    like you could hope to stand,
    or walk,
    or think for one second
    you could **** with currents
    beyond the beat
    of your own heart.

    Uh huh,
    uh huh.

    So, I got a beat here.

    Uh huh,
    uh huh.

    C'mon.

    I take mini-vacations about every 3 months.. I need those to refresh myself and come back to work with a clear mind. Found I got more things done in a shorter period of time.

    To answer the question, I don't have a hard and fast rule, like no work on vacation or anything like that. Stuff happens and if it warrants that I need to get something done, I will do it and get back to my mini-vacation.

    Everyone needs vacation time to boost productivity. I go on a relaxing vacation to let the daily worries go. This was the time we had no other thoughts except to explore our new surroundings.
