Not much other than they all are on Griffin's list of favorite hobbies and interests.

Upon hearing Griffin's diagnosis of autism over a decade ago, his parents felt as though their world ended. They often wished there was a resource available to show, in a lighthearted and humorous way, that having a child with a disability was not all gloom and doom but rather could be a lot of fun. First with his hilarious blog and now with this book, Griffin's dad has tried to fill this void, and launch a crusade, of sorts, to make the public aware that life doesn't end with a diagnosis of a cognitive disability.

Juan and Aaron are freshmen from New York visiting Texas to attend State University. The problem is State U isn't quite ready with its new dorms. Dean Wolf enlists his good pal Ed to help out. The antics of these two twinks, begin during the ride to Ed's home and don't stop until weeks later when it's time for them to leave. Ed tries to control his house with a healthy dose of fun, patience, and spankings. But those young men are a handful (no pun intended.) Ed is kind of weird in his on way. We'll just call him borderline "Psycho", almost as wacky as Norman Bates. There are page after page of laughs and sex in this cute little novella. Excerpt: Dean Wolf tossed a bunch of papers and a pen at me. After I filled out the paperwork that stated all of the terms and rules and regulations of the Temporary Auxiliary Housing Off Campus Agreement -- The name was long enough to give me a headache-- Dean Wolf walked me over to the gym where they were housing the freshmen males. I tried to excuse myself to use the toilet, but Wolf was not having that. He knows I have a bad habit of using the toilet in the men's dressing room for hours. I've visited him on campus before. It's always nice to see those bats swinging between thighs along with the plethora of bouncing balls. And of course a cute melon-shaped ass, dripping wet, making it sweet and succulent to the tongue, is a nice treat. But Wolf wasn't allowing me to engage in any shenanigans today. I had to be professional and fatherly. You may have purchased this when it was authored by Andy Cox. If so, thank you. New readers, please enjoy this and upcoming stories by AC Adams.
