Everything I've read about it insists that there will be no views of what the series is named for. Pity. http://popwatch.ew.com/popwatch/2009/05/hbos-hung-a-ris.html

Gay Queen Gay Prom Queen Picture LOS ANGELES – An openly gay teen has been voted prom queen at his Los Angeles high school in a campaign that began as a stunt but ended up spurring discussion on the campus about gender roles and popularity. Sergio Garcia said he felt "invincible" when he was crowned queen of the Fairfax High School dance at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel on Saturday. Days before the dance, Garcia told fellow students that he was "not your typical prom queen candidate. There's more to me than meets the eye." He also promised that he would be wearing a suit on prom night, but "don't be fooled: Deep down, I am a queen." And he made …

Owner is thinking of making it less of a Gay bar and more open to everybody. It is doomed if he tries that-I for one do not like women in Gay Bars-even fag hags. And we are talking female hosts as well. If you stop in-tell them what a bad idea this is.

I saw it today and loved it. Having watched the original series it was fun to notice all the references to the original. Also lots of Hunks. I'd like to pound the hell out of Chekhov, Kirk, and Kirk's father George. Lots of winks to the TV series including the death of the third guy on an away mission. Has anyone else seen it yet?

Not the Lesbian I had hoped for but it is a woman and hispanic. She would bring a great deal of diversity to the court. Do you think your confirmation is going to be contentious? Do you think he picked a hispanic lady to quell the opposition before they even begun? Lets face it, the hispanic vote is a large part of his success and they are getting more powerful. To have the Republican's attack her may blow up in their face.

I often get caught up in the moment and find someone so adorable that I would offer to fly them to the moon and back before reality sets in. I met a guy in Sao Paulo that I adored. I gave him a 2 out of 10 but for looks, he is simply amazing. Divine. Yummy. A perfect companion for me. As I saw him again in Rio (his home) at Club 117, I took him to my hotel for the evening. I was planning on keeping him for about a month (in my own mind). I had asked his daily rate and a weekly rate and we would decide after the first night. Well, even though he had a big fish on the line, he wasn't able to seal the deal. Sex was still a 2 out of 10. Kissing was excellent and he …

I have been wanting to see this as it got some mixed reviews but it intrigued me. I will say I was shocked at how well the movie captivated my attention from beginning to end. It was a great movie and very enjoyable and informative. I would recommend this to anyone.

As has been reported in previous posts, Numbers is changing dramatically. The following is a quote I believe from the manager / owner or someone at the restaurant: "Numbers has been known as a hustler bar for 33 years, but the truth is bars down the street have more hustlers in a night than we do in a month. Your point about boys walking around in underwear is well taken, and we are NOT going to be having boys anymore on a regular basis. We are aiming to become more mainstream, and welcome anyone for a nice place to spend part or all of their evening. There will be only one night a week that will have boys and girls that will be dressed more risque, and that will be Satu…

What a true shame that the court allowed this to stand. I think we all knew it would be the final decision given they had requested security and protection once the verdict was reached. But, the decision was not even close. What is the next step for California? http://edition.cnn.com/2009/US/05/26/calif...iage/index.html

Switzerland fights back tax haven slurs — with half-naked farmers Roger Boyes http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/worl...amp;attr=797093 Switzerland, fed up with being portrayed as a tax-dodgers’ paradise, is rebranding itself as a land of hunky half-naked peasants with waxed chests and tight leather shorts. “We want to show Switzerland in its best light, the countryside and a bit of its culture,†says Tina Steinauer, who has been shooting the 2010 calendar for the Swiss farmers’ union at the village of Seegräben near Zurich. The culture in this case centres mainly on skimpily clad male farmers holding hoes or throwing around bales of hay with what app…

Carrie Prejean quote: "Well, I think it's great that Americans are able to choose one or the other. We live in a land that you can choose same-sex marriage or opposite marriage, and you know what, in my country and in my family, I think that I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman. No offense to anybody out there, but that's how I was raised and that's how I think it should be between a man and a woman." Barack Obama Quote: "I do not support gay marriage. Marriage has religious and social connotations, and I consider marriage to be between a man and a woman." Why is one (Prejean) considered a pariah by the gay community while the other (Obama) …

Researchers at the Children's Hospital of Philedelphia (CHOP) may have made a breakthrough in the search for an effective AIDS vaccine. As near as I can translate the medical/scientific jargon, what follows is what they've done: Using SIV (the simian version of HIV) as a model, they gene modified an adeno virus to code for known SIV specific antibodies. The researchers then utilized the modified virus as a gene transfer agent by injecting it into the muscle tissue of monkeys. Muscle cells took up the modified virus and began expressing (manufacturing) the antibodies. The circulatory system picked up the antibodies and passively carried them throughout the body. The p…

On a past job, before pimp or pornographer, I had a "regular" job. When I left, the staff threw me a party. They did not know I was leaving to start an escort business. They thought I was taking a new position in the legal field. They gave me a book, Oh the Places You'll Go by Dr. Seuss. They have filled the covers from front to back with little notes and wishes. I walked into Target the other day and saw the book on the stand. I had to take it out to read it. They were right. I have really traveled to many places that I never dreamed possible. I grew up poor white trailer park in the deep south with no one in my family ever venturing out of the state. Now, …

At least in LA, the new Adult Services area was a pain in the ass with all the pussy ads. Now, they have it subdivided into M4M etc. I can't see much of a difference other than the words used in the ads and less numbers of guys posting. I did hear from several across the country that law enforcement has been going after those that list on the site. Not good news for them and advice to be careful!

From Huffington Post, it looks like 3 states attorneys won a battle with craigslist: CHICAGO — Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan says that Craigslist is getting rid of its "erotic services" ads and will create a new adult category that Web site employees will review. Madigan's office said Wednesday that such existing ads on Craigslist will expire in seven days. Madigan and the attorneys general for Connecticut and Missouri met with Craigslist officials last week seeking an end to ads they contend are advertisements for illegal sexual activities. An e-mail sent to Craigslist CEO Jim Buckmaster was not immediately returned Wednesday morning. Craigslist came unde…

DEFENSE BOSS HAILS NO-PANTS HERO By ANDY SOLTIS May 23, 2009 -- Defense Secretary Robert Gates yesterday saluted a 19-year-old solider from Texas who was caught in his pink boxers -- which read, "I Love New York" -- last week during a firefight with the Taliban in eastern Afghanistan. Army Spc. Zachary Boyd of Fort Worth became a reluctant celebrity when an Associated Press photo of him in his undies appeared in newspapers. That prompted a debate in the blogosphere over whether he was dressed for battle. But Gates defended Boyd's lack of pants in a speech at the Intrepid Museum yesterday, explaining that for those defending America "sometimes…

NEW YORK (CNN) -- New York authorities indicted seven people accused of running a prostitution ring on the Web site Craigslist, the state's attorney general announced Wednesday. Attorney General Andrew Cuomo's office said the group ran a 24-hour prostitution ring called Room Service Entertainment from Craigslist's erotic services section from June 2007 to December 2008. The 47-count indictment unsealed Wednesday named the company's co-owners as Scott Rosenberg, 45, and Josef Davenport, 31. Five women also were named in the indictment, identified as bookers for the alleged prostitution ring. The five women named in the indictment were identified as Patricia Krupa, Joan…

Jon Stewart shows in his own way how pointless it is to argue with those for whom gayness is the breaker of all deals. Some few who may not have seen the skit: http://www.thedailyshow.com/video/index.jh...Dan-Choi-is-Gay That link should theoretically take you directly to the Dan Choi clip. If it just takes you to the general video page, look for the title. For the moment it's fourth down.

...time to become Quakers? Ten important kisses in history By Maggie Koerth-Baker Mental Floss Pucker up as we explore 10 smooches that changed religion, art, culture, and history. 1. The Kiss of Judas: A betrayal or just misunderstood? Nothing ends a good "bromance" quite like flagrant, murderous betrayal. A long time ago, a wandering preacher named Jesus was doing pretty well for himself -- building up a following and promoting religious teachings -- until one of his buddies sold him out to the authorities. In exchange for 30 pieces of silver, Judas Iscariot kissed Jesus on the cheek and, by doing so, identified him to Roman soldiers. Although Judas double-crosse…
