Ellen calls Gladys

This has to be one of the funniest clips I've seen about this show in a while. I bet this women is a riot in person.

Oh well it has happened again... Lindsay Lohan has been arrested on DUI as well as Cocaine charges. It seems as though her stint in rehab did not do anything to change her wild ways. Illegally she was chancing after another car and the police had to get involved.

A breath test was conducted and her blood alcohol was between .12 percent and .13 percent. When they took her into booking that is where they discovered the cocaine in one of her pockets. I'm sorry but how many chances are we going to give her. I'm not blaming this entirely on her however I think she needs some real help. If she does not do jail time after this I hope some heads will roll. I'm sure the career she has is basically over now. No studio in their right mind would insure this lady (I know right now she's not worthy to be called a lady).

If Paris Hilton got 45 days what do you think she should get? If it's anything less then 6 months of confinement (and not house arrest) there is no justice in the world. People have gone to prison for less crimes then she's committed.

Movie Release

Hello everyone I know I have not posted a movie review / release in a while and I'm sorry for that. I'm still trying to get into the swing of things.


For this week I only have one movie worth mentioning for a release and that movie is


Zodiac




David Fincher's dramatization of an infamous unsolved serial murder case certainly doesn't drag on as long as the investigation itself, but the overlong movie sometimes feels like it. The thiller is based on the Zodiac killer, who's slayings terrorized Californians in the 1970s and obsessed professional and amautre sleuths for decades. It stars Jake Gyllenhaal (who's just to yummy for words), Robert Downey Jr. (one of the best actors of our time nothing beats his scene in "Less Than Zero") and Mark Ruffalo as three men pulled ino the case. With the movie clocking in at nearly two hours and 40 minutes, the filmmakers apparently decided that was enough for home-video views as the DVd contains no extras.

Free at Last... Free at Last...

I wanted to start off this post by saying I'm sorry to anyone this might offend (as I know there are many of you out there). However I just heard how Gov. Rod Blagojevich singed inot law a smoking band that extends to nearly ALL publc places across the state of Illinois.

Now since I'm not a smoker this will not really affect me in any way hardly (besides cleaner air to breath and my clothes not smelling of smoke in a bar). But I will admit that I feel sorry for smokers, I mean you basically have no where to to smoke. Oh and please don't tell me that if I don't want my clothes to smell like smoke I don't have to go to a bar / club etc. because I could throw the same thing right back at you. I dealt with the smoke and now you're going to have to deal with the "not smoking". Oh but I'm losing track here back to the focus at hand.

It seems as though a lot of smokers are trying to make this a bigger issue then what it is saying that since they are not going to be able to smoke in club / bars they will just stay home. While I think they might do it for a while eventually they will start going out again and dealing with the fact that they can not smoke in certain places. I'm just waiting for the "smoking police" to start reporting clubs / people for smoking in public places.

But I would like to get other people opinions from all over the area.

1. Where are you from (If in the US please provide city / state if outside the country please provide which country / area)

2. Does where you live have some type of smoking ban?

3. If it does how has it affected you... If it does not would you like it to have one

4. Are you a smoker or none smoker?

Welcome aboard

While this might not be new, news to some of you it is for me. I was just discovered by this amazing fellow blogger (Jeremy Ryan). I've just looked through his site a bit and it's very nice (I might have to ask him if I can borrow some of his ideas). The link to his site is http://homoblogo.blogspot.com/ I'm also going to post this to the "Sites I like" section. If you have not looked it at you really should check it out. Oh (sorry about this Jeremy) but I discovered this site from Jeremy as well, http://www.insideimdancing.com/blog/ the only thing I can say about this guy (who's name is Joe) is YUMMY... I'm sorry I missed the video of him being shirtless however. But like he said in his new clip. Maybe he'll post it again, we can only hope.

Oh and I've decided it's time for another change.. I have decided to try and change up the template of my blog a bit. I don't know what I'm going to do but I hope you all enjoy it. Look for this chance to happen sometimes next month.

Reader Choice . . .

I've been reading a few blogs and I've notice that quite a few of them have nudity included on them. While in the past a few of my stories have been very homo erotic in detail I have tried my best to avoid nude pictures, but I think the times might have come to change this. But before I do I want to get your opinion. Do you think I should start posting nude pics on my blog or keep it clean (for those of us that read blogs while at work). Majority will rule here. If more readers would like to see skin then skin they will have (but not any of me so don't ask).

Emmy Nominations

"The Sopranos," the mob series that went to its grave with a shockingly inconclusive finale, found a happy ending Thursday with 15 Emmy nominations including best drama. The made-for-TV movie "Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee" led all nominees with 17 bids.

James Gandolfini, who played the emotionally conflicted mob boss on HBO's "The Sopranos," and Edie Falco, who played his wife, both received top acting nominations.

The other best-drama series were "Boston Legal," "Grey's Anatomy," "House" and freshman sci-fi sensation "Heroes."

"The Sopranos" emerged with the most nominations for a series, followed by "Ugly Betty" with 11 and, with 10 each, sexy medical drama "Grey's Anatomy" and critical favorite "30 Rock."

"Grey's Anatomy," which came through a difficult year in which star Isaiah Washington was fired after twice using an anti-gay slur, wasn't hurt when it came to Emmy bids. Besides best drama series, there were nominations for four supporting cast members and two guest actors.

The miniseries "The Starter Wife" also was a top nominee with 10 bids.

The freshman hit, "Ugly Betty," based on a Colombian telenovela, made it into the ranks of best comedy series nominees. It's joined by "Entourage," "30 Rock," "Two and a Half Men" and last year's winner in the category, "The Office."

"Ugly Betty" star America Ferrera was recognized with a nod for her starring role.

Joining Gandolfini among lead drama series actor nominees were Hugh Laurie of "House," Denis Leary of "Rescue Me," James Spader of "Boston Legal" and last year's winner Kiefer Sutherland of "24." Last year's drama series winner was "24" but it was snubbed this time.

Falco will compete with Patricia Arquette of "Medium," Minnie Driver of "The Riches," Sally Field of "Brothers & Sisters," Kyra Sedgwick of "The Closer" and last year's winner, Mariska Hargitay of "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit."

Sedgwick got the news immediately. She helped announce bids for the 59th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards in a brief ceremony at the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences' Leonard H. Goldenson Theatre.

"Friday Night Lights," the critically acclaimed but low-rated high school football drama that needed an Emmy boost, failed to gain major nominations.

"The Sopranos," which premiered in January 1999 and had an on-and-off cable run, capped its final episode this year with an ambiguous ending that left fans in the dark about the fate of lead character Tony Soprano, last seen sitting in a diner with his wife and children. A suddenly black screen suggested sudden violence — or not.

The series' other nominees included Michael Imperioli, who received a bid for best supporting dramatic actor for his role as the ill-fated Christopher. Aida Turturro, who played Tony's tough sister Janice, and Lorraine Bracco, who co-starred as his conflicted psychiatrist Dr. Melfi, were nominated for supporting actress.

Along with Ferrera in the lead comedy actress category were Felicity Huffman of "Desperate Housewives," Tina Fey of "30 Rock," Mary-Louise Parker of "Weeds" and last year's winner, Julia Louis-Dreyfus of "The New Adventures of Old Christine."

Their actor counterparts included last year's winner, Tony Shalhoub of "Monk," Ricky Gervais of "Extras," Steve Carell of "The Office," Charlie Sheen of "Two and a Half Men" and Alec Baldwin of "30 Rock."

Like "Grey's" Washington, Baldwin drew unflattering attention this year, in his case because of a leaked recording of an angry telephone call to his daughter, who is caught in a legal dispute with ex-wife Kim Basinger

In June, judges screening potential nominees for the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences made their picks from a list of 10 top contenders for the best drama and best comedy series categories.

The top 10 lists given to the judges were based on polling of the general academy membership. Five nominees in each category ultimately were to be chosen, based on a combination of the panelists' votes and the general polling.

The three-hour Emmy Awards ceremony will be broadcast Sept. 16 by Fox from the Shrine Auditorium.

Other Emmy honors, including those for technical achievement and guest actors and actresses in series, will be given at the creative arts ceremony on Sept. 8.

I would really like to hear who people think will / should win. Leave a comment and let's see who gets it right.

Night to remember at Sidetracks

Ok everyone, I know it’s been a while since I posted but I just had to give you this news. Yesterday started off as any other day I went to work and decided to go see the new Harry Potter movie with a few friends afterwards. After the movie we went out for dinner and a few drinks. Then it was decided to hit a bar afterwards and finish the night off. Me any my friend went to my place so I can change (I was the only one still in work clothes). As I changed I got a text from the friend that suggested that we go out and he stated that he did not feel like going out anymore. By this time me and my other friend where already on our way… We decided to just go out for a few drinks and still have a good time. We went to a bar called Sidetracks and had a few drinks (actually a bit more then a few) and as we’re drinking he looks at me and get “wide eyed”. As I asked him what’s going on he states… OMG.. it’s Toby.. I asked him what he was talking about and he said the guy that plays Toby on Dante's Cove was in the bar. I looked and could only see the side of the guys face. But like I said I was already buzzed by this time. So I gathered up my liquid courage and approached the guy and looked him dead in the face and asked him “excuse me are you a actor”… “Yes”… “Do you star in Dante’s Cove”…. “Yes”… “OMG … it is you”…. Me and my friend were so shocked because we fell in love with this show ever since the first moment we saw it. Needless to say we had to ask him questions about the 3rd season (which you will have to watch to find out about). So he talks with us for a while however he was there working. They where filming a Gay Canadian show (is there any other kind), and as they where doing this they were taking video footage of different areas of the bar. Then out of the blue they asked me and my friend if we wanted to be included in a scene in it. Of course we jumped at the chance to be in a scene with Toby (who btw real name is Charlie David ). A group of people gathered up on the outside patio deck and the film crew began taping us basically talking and having a few drinks. They wrapped up production and thanked up for being part of the shot. Now you would think it would end after this HOWEVER my friend all of a sudden became sort of a “stalker”. When Charlie and the crew were leaving he said to me “we have to go where they go”. So we ended up going over to 3 other bars trying to located where they where filming at next (found out later they left however will be filming in the Lesbian bars in Andersonville) . After one more rounds of drinks we decided that we have had enough and started to head home. For those of you that DON’T know what Dante’s Cove is or who Charlie David is then you really need to find out he’s amazing (and rather shorter then I thought)

Beach Fashion


Love it or hate it, beach season is upon us, and more likely than not you’ll be donning a swimsuit and other water-related gear in the near future. As far as fashion goes, beachwear is fairly straightforward -- all you need is a great suit with coordinating sandals, a cool cover-up, a hat to protect your head, and some shades to keep your peepers free of UV damage.


Tommy Hilfiger slides
These basic black and white slides are both cushy and easy to match with the other summer items in your wardrobe. The mesh fabric composition means these are easy to clean and you can take them into the water with no fear of ruining them.





Paul Smith flip-flops
Known for his ability to infuse cutting-edge cool into everything, Paul Smith doesn’t disappoint even with the most straightforward footwear. Simple flip-flops get a serious luxe upgrade in the hands of this British designer with leather uppers and insoles. As well, the multicolored woven canvas stripe along with the graffiti-style logo screen on the sole add a healthy dose of quirky cool to the sandal.




Banana Republic Montecito sandal
If you don’t want to pack much luggage for your beach holiday, or if you plan to spend all day at the beach before engaging in your evening’s activities, these are the sandals for you. The crisscross design on these leather sandals makes them casual enough when paired with swim shorts or baggy pants for lounging about, but it also means they’re chic enough for a night out in a relaxed but hip restaurant or bar.


Quiksilver O.G. Scallop boardshorts
Whether you surf or not, the sporty retro style of these boardshorts will surely get you in the mood for some kind of beach activity. And even if they don’t inspire you to do much except roll over on your towel to top off your tan, their sleek appearance means you’ll look great just lying around. A great bonus: A patch pocket on the back prevents you from losing your small change on your jog over to the hot dog stand.


Abercrombie & Fitch Sunday Creek shorts
Make a style splash in these just-colorful-enough sporty shorts from Abercrombie & Fitch. They’re long enough to cover any less than perfect spots if you didn't manage to make it to the gym this past winter. The low-rise fit flatters most body types as well and will improve the appearance of your rear end. These shorts will also dry quickly in the sun thanks to their 100% soft polyester composition, so you’ll never have to put on a wet swimsuit when the urge to take a second dip in the pool or the ocean strikes you.

Joseph Abboud T-shirt
Worn at the beach, this linen-cotton blend shirt from designer Joseph Abboud will skim over your body to hide any lumps or bumps, ensuring that all others see is your fantastic sense of style. Elsewhere, team it with gray pants or shorts for a casual yet sophisticated look that’s very now.




Gap linen shirt
This light linen shirt ensures you feel breezy on the hottest days. And when paired with crisp white pants this affordable button-down from Gap will keep you feeling and looking cool on the beach and beyond. Because it's made of high-quality linen it’ll look elegant for an evening out as well.


Kangol KL428D sunglasses
Be smart about sun protection and look hot with these Kangol sunglasses. More interesting than basic black glasses but just as versatile, these dark brown shades with break-resistant lenses will complement everything else in your closet.




Tom Ford TF003 Ford
These pilot-style sunglasses from Tom Ford are the kind of piece that will make any outfit look instantly better and up-to-date. Work the sporty vibe of these glasses on the beach by pairing them with sleek but athletic swimming trunks and a lightweight cotton hoodie. In the city, play up the ‘60s feel of the shades by trying them out with some slim-cut pinstripe pants.

Male Hottie Of The Day

Male Hottie Of The Day

Benil Ribeiro




















Benil, 27 years old, measures a 1,75m tall and weights a good 76 kg. He has covered his muscled body with several tattoo's which he likes to show off on stage every now and then. But that is not his main activity. He mostly makes his living being a personal trainer and tantrum therapist. No wonder Benil scores high on the list of sex appeal.
And since we are talking about that anyway, sex is important for Benil. It looks like a lot of guys we encounter have this fantasy of sex in public areas. For Benil, no longer a fantasy. Benil seems to have a water fetish. One of his biggest fantasies is to have sex under the rain, yet to be full filled. Until then, a bath tub and nice shower seems to be a good substitute.

Weekend Plans In Chicago

Well everyone it's that time of year again. The sun is out and so are the people. This weekend in Chicago Promises to be almost as good as last weekend, let's run down our game plan shall we.

Friday:

The start of the Taste of Chicago. This is a annual event going on it's 27th year now. Food from all over will be featured here and is susre to be a huge crowd draw from around the area (if not the country). If you can you should come and sample foods form over 70 restaurants including a lot of Chicago's prides and joys such as Lou Malnati's. Oh but the taste is not only about the food it's also about the music and the acts are as diverse as the people itself going from Maze with Frankie Beverly to Kenny Rogers and Sara Evans.

Saturday:

This is actually my time to PARTY
Circuit is having a Babylon Tour and me and a few buddies will be there getting our dance on. The party goes from 10pm - 5am so make sure you bring a LOT of energy to enjoy the night away.

Sunday:

As god rested on the 7th day so should you. I expect to rent the first (and maybe second) season of Dante's Cove and just relax at home with a nice bottle of wine. However if you must do something I would suggest going down to Navy Pier for the Fire work display taking place there it should be lots of fun and good eye candy.

I am know this list is not as informative as you would like it to be however I'm trying to calm down my wild and crazy weekends. I will let everyone know what I acutally did on Monday until then enjoy.

Geek Corner

Hello everyone,

I'm sorry it's been so long since I've last posted but here are a few gadgets that you might be interested in. These I'm sure will be a huge hit this summer.

TurboLinux's Wizpy bootable Linux PMP
by Thomas Ricker

We witnessed the birth of TurboLinux's Wizpy, watched it strike out in earnest and eventually earn a living on the mean, PMP streets. So how has the wee, bootable Linux distro cum PMP fared? Well, according to a review over at LinuxLookup, it's a nice piece of kit and all although a bit finicky. 1GB of the 4GB is reserved for the OS and fully functional desktop (Firefox, OpenOffice, Skype, etc.) with the remaining 2.8GB allocated to OGG/WMA/AAC/MP3 audio and DivX video. However, as the reviewer points out (and we agree) the $290 price tag will limit its appeal to early adopters and Linux fanboys. Actually, strike the latter, any fanboy worth his salt will build his own bootable DAP (without the tiny 1.7-inch screen) for less than $40. Poor poor Wizpy, why'd you have to become such a snob?


Logitech's QuickCam Pro 9000 and Notebook webcams
by Thomas Ricker

Logitech just stepped up their webcam game with the introduction of a pair of $100 QuickCam Pro 9000 and QuickCam Pro for Notebooks. These are the first two webcams to carry a Carl Zeiss Tessar lens under a new exclusive deal 'tween the two. Besides the highly touted optics, the cams feature a less than 3 second auto-refocus time, a 2 megapixel sensor, recordings at 30fps and 960 x 720 pixels, and compatibility with Skype and all the other popular PC video messaging applications. Both should ship in Europe and the US before July is done.

The Party is not over

Well it appears as though I did a lot more doing the pride parade that I don't remember. Below are a few pics explaining what I mean. Oh and I've also received pics that some friend e-mailed to me showing more hot guys which I post on the site later.












OK... I lied here are the other pics I promised earlier
