PepperSpray!
If you look just inside the bent arm of the Lead Singer in Stripes, you can see my mug poking out. I was helping w/the sound stage.

#5 Last but not least, me forcing a smile after a LONG day.

Schiavo – Truth Finally Wins Out

As it turns out, all the lies and conspiracy stories the family made up Michael Schiavo were invalidated. The autopsy revealed she was in fact legally brain dead. Along w/that came the revelation that she was never strangled, beaten, or tortured in anyway.

(full story)

..there is no evidence Terri Schiavo was abused or mistreated (they pointed especially to the barrage of exams performed right after her initial collapse that would have indicated this). Terri Schiavo was clinically blind, putting to rest the sad delusion that she was looking at people or following a balloon or other actions utterly impossible given her condition. Terri Schiavo’s brain was HALF the size of a normal person of her age; in other words she was severely dysfunctional and incapable of the reactions her family and outsiders who hadn’t even examined her wanted to imagine she was performing. Terri Schiavo would have choked to death if given food or water via her mouth — so those fools rushing the security guards to give Terri water would have killed her, not helped her. And no amount of therapy or treatment would have ever changed her condition.

I think the parents owe Michael an apology at the very least. Forgetting for a moment, they planned to override their own daughters wishes and keep her on a machine indefinitely. Add to that, they expected the state to pick up the bill. The audacity of these people just astounds me. No one can argue that it was a difficult painful situation for ALL involved. However, when the state starts telling me how and when I can handle my own affairs then we might as well pack it in folks. Democracy will be a memory.

Tsunami Alert!

At 19:50 hours (7:50pm) pacific time today, 300 miles northwest of San Francisco, a 7.0 earthquake occured. The following aftershocks triggered a Tsunami Alert for the entire western seaboard by the US Geological Society.

Luckily, the quake was a horizontal slip event, not vertical. Once this was discovered, the Alert was cancelled. (Only a vertical slip-event quake causes a “Tsunami” wave)

Of course, our call center was off the hook w/people calling in to find out what was going on. We were just moments away from going to full mobilization before the Alert was cancelled.

We are still here! (for now anyway)

BCC – Meet & Greet

This past Saturday I spent my time volunteering for the BCC Meet & Greet. (Pictures forthcoming) Minus the blister from tying balloons, it was a great time. The committee is much more organized this year and it is really beginning to show. The day went off w/o a hitch and we raised a sizeable amount of money to boot.

The Meet & Greet serves to officially introduce the incoming year of guys to the public. The day started w/Kitton on the Keys! A sort of burlesque meets vaudville entertainer. Funny as all hell! She was my favorite part of the whole day. Kitten honey, if you are out there, I LOVE YOU!

Pepperspray was in attendance as well and turned out a spectacular performance. I’m not a big fan of drag/glam bands but they were pretty damn good. To my surprise, I discovered I’ve already been “aquainted” w/one of the guitar players. He really is multi-talented. Who knew?! Anyway, I guess there is sort of a scandal surrounding Pepperspray beyond my indiscretions. One of the singers (in drag), also does porn. Apparently, he is really good at that too. Even decked out in face, it’s obvious when you see them in person which one he is. Not being really up on most porn these days, I haven’t the foggiest idea who he is ‘in the biz’. However, as fab looking as she was, under all that glam lurked a MAN. There was also a snake charmer performance. I thought it kind of lame. Eveyone else was oooh’ing and aaaaah’ing over it. I guess growing up on a farm w/tons of snakes as a norm, I was expecting more.

Afterwards, Mostovic, myself, Tyrone and his trick, oh I mean date, adjourned to Harveys in the Castro for a late meal. (Ok, I’m feeling caddy today, sue me!)

My food is here…more later.

Ups & Downs

Two updates today. Got some bad news from a friend back home. He hates blogging so I’ll be skipping the details. It is serious enough I may fly home. I also found out an old friend is coming to visit from Chicago.

I’m sad and happy all at the same time. Kind of an odd sensation. I wonder if this is how woman feel during “the time”.

Weekend Wanderings III

My weekend is fast coming to an end. After getting in touch w/my inner slut last night, I spent most of the day today getting errands done and goofing off.

As you can tell, I did manage to get some work done on the blog. I think I got most of the bugs out of the template. Now, I just need to remold the old pages. The biggest challenge will be getting the blog folded into the template.

I did manage to snap off a couple of new pics. I manged to catch Mostovic focused on his work.

Ponder Me This...

He came down to the Castro to meet me. Our schedules have been going in opposite directions as of late. It was good to catch up w/him. Even if it was short lived.

And here is Bobby posing under the posies. (not really posies but it sounded good!)

Bobby In The Posies

Again, looking so angelic. I need to get one w/an infrared lens so I can catch his horns showing.

I snagged a new one for the photo log on the right as well. Looking completely nuts as usual.
