I am so scene
Despite senseless deaths in Iraq, our idiot President protecting us from the horrors of gay marriage, and other various and sundry portents of doom, we are lucky to have pictures of England rugby's Ben Cohen in underwear on the Internets to help us forget such things:
Ben has the most adorable little kid smile complimented by a lush growth of chest fur, accentuated with a distinct and imminently lickable treasure trail. Shoulders like breakfast-sized bran muffins too.
I went to see Kathy Griffin last night at the Warner Theatre with a bunch of catty queens, and it was a lot of fun. Her routine was LONG, and we certainly got our money's worth from the show. I laughed a lot. I hope she kicks Ryan Seacrest's ass some day (again).
Before that I was a big giant queen and had two big girly cosmos at Halo. We were discussing that apparently some people loathe Halo for some reason. I go there because it's smoke free, and there are usually fewer overly-drunk twinks there who can't handle their booze, because the booze there ain't cheap, so it keeps the cheapos out of the place. Apparently some people avoid going there for fear of being perceived as in "the scene" too much, whatever that means. I am so scene. Fear this queen.
I remember shaking things up there this winter when I had a birthday gathering. Most of the guys who showed up to meet me were either on the rugby team or had facial hair. This was disturbing to the usual crowd at Halo, as one of whom approached us and said sibilantly, "Exssscussse me? Isss thisss Bear night or sssomething?" I love it.
I am going to see X-Men tonight. I hear that it isn't all that consisent with the comics, but these days not even the comics are consistent with the comics. There must be like a dozen X-titles out on the shelves these days. Do not be in shock that I haven't seen the film yet - I don't go opening weekends, or any weekends, for that matter as I don't like huge theatre crowds. Anyone using a cell phone in the theatre, as they usually do in DC, enrages me and it totally ruins the experience for me. On weeknights there are usually fewer opportunities for me to be enraged by movie theatre cell phone use.

Saw you at Halo and KG last night. Nice haircut!
There was a poor straight couple in front of us and they winced a couple of times with Kathy went a little to far (particularly the whole Tim Frey fisting thing).
I went directly home and googled the whole Clay thing. Ewww. Yet bizarrely fascinating.

Oh. My. God. I have never heard of this guy before, but he is now my new celebrity crush. I think I love him.
I love Kathy Griffin too. Wish I was there. Thanks for inviting me.

The little kid smile, a bit unnerving, the rest is very nice, and I'd say the shoulders make for the only good looking muffin top.
Halo was a bit too "scene" yesterday when I walked by. There were people wearing white everything (though w/o underwear, which is such a bad idea in anything so sheer), it looked like the White Party has been teleported to DC. It has good moments and bad, but at least it's closer to home, and the drinks, even if they are a bit much for me, are wonderfully indulgent of my desire for sweet. Still without TheSeanShow, it just isn't the same.
Kathy was doing her spiel on Bravo yesterday afternoon and she almost kept me from going to the gym. Very fun, wish I'd known she was in town.

Favorite Rugger Ever (6'3" 220# WINGER of all things; but alas he's married.) I'd rate him right up there with Ben Browder (what's up with BENS???) More on Beautiful Ben available here: http://ben-cohen.com. Included are several pics of him in tight boxer-briefs from a Sloggi underwear photo shoot he did and a woofy pic of him shirtless on a waterslide in the wallpaper section.

Cell Phones in movie theatres? That is NOTHING. Let's talk about asshole trash that brings BABIES into movie theatres! A young couple brought their two year-old to X3 when I saw it last week...absolutely inexcusable. The kid whined and fidgeted and made noise throughout the film, a fight even almost broke out with a patron threatning the baby's father.
I hate cell phones in theatres too, but if one goes off we are talking about 10-30 seconds of disruption. A baby? That gives you a guarantee of two hours of annoyance.

Lordy, that Ben's a nice looking fella...

I must agree with you on this one Jimbo.. this guy is frackalicious .
And Rob and I saw X3 opening night , with my brother in San Francisco.. And I thought Baltimore was ghetto.. oh hell now. Being in a theater with a bunch of chatty queens made my eye twitch with evil.
I will say this, BEAST was played very well by Kelsey Grammer. AND STAY FOR THE ENTIRE END CREDITS.! There is a scene at the end of the credits you have to watch!
