A person with HIV will...over time...possibly develop into AIDS and DIE without daily treatment.
The only differences are the stigma attached to HIV.
Just between you and me...the more I think about it, the more I wouldn't want to be shooting in LA either. It's just a little too dumb there and a little too much of a cesspool.
But then again...I probably fuck as many strange pieces of ass out of nightclubs in a couple of weeks as do the "talent" so I guess it's all a crapshoot in the end.

Robbie,
You are a funny, intelligent guy and I admire your work and your posts, but high blood pressure can often be mitigated by lifestyle choices (such as losing weight and changing diet). It also is not contagious. It cannot be inflicted on someone by someone else. HIV can.
Cancer is a terrible disease, and of the two I would prefer HIV over stage 4 cancer, but it is the fact that an otherwise healthy person can be given HIV by exposure to an infected person that causes the stigma and the fear.
