Twink, Twink, Twink... (NSFW)

Omg!  Adam Lambert will never measure up. Seriously, other than Cazwell's fabulous songs, "Ice Cream Truck," and "Get My Money Back," I haven't heard a good "gay" anthem in a while, and this one's perfect for the summer!

If your hungry for Twinks, then this is your video. It's absolutely raunchy, and I love it!  

As I was stumbling across the internet I came across a duo from Sweden who go by the name "Straight Up!"  They have been recording music since the spring of 2010, and can you believe I only discovered them today? What the hell is wrong with me?  They released the following video,"Twink" around the early part of December, and it's absolutely genius!  I mean with lyrics like these you cannot go wrong.

"The only toy, that I enjoy, is young & hung, a boy..."

"I like them pretty, all smooth and pink.. Twink, Twink, Twink.. uhhhhh"

"I pick a hunk I wanna funk and then I get him drunk...  uh huh, give it to me"

"C'mon I'll buy ya, baby a drink...Twink, Twink, Twink..."

If you have no idea what a twink is, Urban Dictionary lays it out for you this way...  "A twink is “an attractive, boyish-looking, young gay man. The stereotypical twink is 18-22, slender with little or no body hair, often blonde, dresses in club wear even at 10:00 AM, and is not particularly intelligent. A twink is the gay answer to the blonde bimbo cheerleader.”

Despite it's raunchy lyrics, it is catchy and funny, and well, the twinks are kinda cute too.  Overall, the video is well put together, check it out here.

Show Me Your Teeth

It's a sad fact, but millions of people in this country have no dental insurance, and those who do, don't use it.  I'm the perfect example.  I've had dental insurance for as long as I can remember, but I haven't seen a dentist in the same amount of time.  I may have only gone once, but that was years ago.  I brush my teeth everyday, but I don't floss, and brush regularly as I should.  Visiting a dentist is something both Ryan and I will have to do once we get out of debt, which isn't too far away.

Our Future Is In Their Hands - Take 2

Have  you ever had a dream that... where you... that... s... you... want.. do.. sh.. you... that... so.. do... you... so... where... could.. do... you.... anything?

Omg - this kid is so darn cute.  He is trying to ask if you've ever had a dream where you could do almost anything?  It just doesn't come out that way.

First Major Republican Presidential Debate is No Slugfest

So, on the news this morning, all you hear is who won and who lost in the first major presidential debate of the election season 2011-2012.  In my opinion, the only one who came with straight-forward answers was Ron Paul, even though he's a little nutty.  As for the rest of the group, you can count them out.  Lord help us, if Rick Perry decides to get into this late in the game.  When are people going to learn?!?!

For those who have no idea who's running for the Republican party, here are your candidates so far.

Left to right: Newt Gingrich, Tim Pawlenty, Mitt Romney, Ron Paul, Michele Bachmann, Herman Cain, Rick Santorum, Fred Karger

Oops! They forgot to invite Fred Karger.

Oh that's right. He's gay, he don't count.

The Supposed Winners:  

Michele Bachmann?  Really?  Are you fucking kidding me?  I know what it was, it was the fact she said, "I have 23 foster children," not once, but twice.  But supposedly she dominated the stage.  I'm sorry, but after 30 minutes of watching this debacle, I had to change the channel.

Mitt Romney?  Really?  Presidential? Really?  If you're wondering where I'm getting this Winner and Loser data from, it's from this article: New Hampshire Republican debate: Winners and losers.  I don't know about you, but somebody needs to have a talk with Chris Cillizza about this.  Mitt Romney came off as Presidential?  Really?  The only good going for him was that, "no one had the stomach to attack him directly." I do give credit to Cillizza for stating the obvious.

We won't even go to who Cillizza thinks the supposed losers are.  You can go to CNN for that.

Also, Keep in mind: Rick Perry from our own state of Texas, Rudy Giuliani from New York, and Jon Huntsman from Utah, have yet to decide.  Lord, help us.

Movies in Rewind: Super 8

If you haven't seen Super 8, you should - it really is a good movie. If you grew up in the late 70's early 80's, you'll definitely love it. This is not a spoiler review, so no need to worry.

Ryan and I went to watch the movie over the weekend, and I'll admit, I shed a few tears.  Apart from being a Steven Spielberg / J.J. Abrams film, it definitely had an E.T., and The Thing feel to it.  So, in essence, it is a feel good movie that will help you understand that grief "isn't something you get over, but rather something you learn to live with."

This movie took me back to a time when Walkmans were coming into existence, whereas kids, we used to play outside instead of being confined to a room all day watching porn or playing video games - 1979.

The movie is about a kid who is stricken by grief, who doesn't get along with his father, and is relying on his friends to help him cope with life and growing up a child of the late 70's.  In the mix of all this, he gets together with his friends who want to make a zombie movie for an upcoming festival, while at the same time a train derails with a mysterious creature inside. Could it be something from Area 51 possibly?

You have two separate stories going on here, but yet they rely on each other.  On one side you have a father and son, a daughter and father who are at odds with each other.  And on the other side you have something mysterious on a train that escapes and wreaks havoc in a small town in the United States.  

Overall I give the movie an 8 out of 10.  Check out the trailer after the jump.

Gabrielle Giffords Photos Released

Back in January, if you may recall, Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords was brought to Houston's Medical Center for treatment and rehabilitation.  She was part of a horrendous shooting that took place at a political event  held at a grocery store in Tuscon, Arizona.  The gunman walked up to Giffords and shot her in the head at point-blank range.  He, not only injured her, but injured and killed many others - it was a horrible, horrible situation. Everyone feared she would die from her injuries, but instead it turned out to be a miraculous recovery that seldom happens with gunshot wounds to the head.  While she's still having a little difficulty speaking, she has regained a lot of her cognitive abilities.

Yesterday new photos of Giffords surfaced on her Facebook page, which showed her remarkable recovery.  And there's also word that doctors may soon release her to an outpatient program.  So the prospect of home, rest-assured, sounds exciting to her right now.
Check out how well she's doing after jump.

The Woes of Being a Bad Parent - Woman Steals Ball from Little Girl

What is it with all these grown-ups and their children, or other people's children at baseball games? 

In my second issue of "The Woes of Being a Bad Parent," a woman literally rips the ball out of an innocent little girl's hands.  And high-fives the rest of her crew while the little girl walks away sulking.

Lady Gaga Performs at EUROPRIDE 2011

Over the weekend, the lovely Lady Gaga was in Rome, Italy for the largest gay pride event in Europe - Europride 2011.  She performed her hits "Born This Way" and "Edge of Glory" to an astounding crowd on Saturday night at the ancient Circus Maximus.  Both the performances were acoustic versions of her songs. 

According to a must read article on MSNBC:

Lady Gaga told the crowd she is often asked "How gay are you, Lady Gaga?"

"My answer is: 'I am a child of diversity.'"

She also proudly cited her Italian roots — saying she was really named Stefania Giovanna Angelina Germanotta.

View of Religion at Large

Ever wonder which religion controls your county or state?  It sure is fascinating to see how much Red (Baptists), and Blue (Catholics) make up much of the country.  Don't get this confused with the Red and Blue states in politics.  Ironically, it does seem to reflect it in much the same way.  Are Catholics more liberal than Baptists?  Hmmm. Makes me wonder...

The Greatest Story Ever Told?

After directing the Black Swan, which grossed $315 million worldwide, with a budget of about $12 million, Darren Aronofsky, is interested in making another movie.  And this time around, it's of gigantic proportions.

According to Deadline, he is pushing a script around that is currently being re-written by the guy who wrote Gladiator and The Last Samurai, John Rogan.  It is the story of Noah, and the Ark he built to save the world.  If you're not familiar with the story of Noah, you should definitely go back to church.  Just sayin'.  

Actually, it's the story of  a man who God called upon to build a boat big enough to hold 2 of each species of animal, and every human being who will take into account what Noah has to say - that God is going to cause a horrendous rainstorm, and they are all going to die. Of course, God knows there's no one in the world who will believe him, because at the time the whole world had gone to shit.  And sure enough, he destroyed the world by having it rain for 40 days and 40 nights.  What happened to all those bastards who didn't believe, even the mothers and children?  Well, they drowned.

Aronofsky's only issue is, the ark was a beast - it was huge.  He's asking for $130 million to make it.  Which you know will turn out to be $230 million by the time it's completed  Several studios have already had their eye on it; Now we wait, and see who caves in, or be damned in hell for eternity for not taking part.

No one has ever tried telling the story of Noah the way Aronofsky intends, so I'm kinda curious to see what transpires.  Growing up Christian, this was one of the stories that fascinated me the most.  Let's just hope we're around by the time their done building the Ark. :-)

The Joys of Being a Parent: 9 Year Old, Robert Jeffrey

Yesterday, I wrote a post about Daniel Joseph Baker, the adorable gay boy from Houston who sang one of Lady Gaga's songs on America's Got Talent.  Today I introduce you to 9-yr old, Robert Jeffrey in a video from 1991 that has gone viral over the internet.

My reasoning behind him being on "The Joys of Being a Parent," is that luckily for him, he had parents that didn't mind him being a "sissy".  When you compare this, to the show Ryan and I watched on AC360, you really tend to admire those parents who love their children unconditionally.

According to his Vimeo account, Robert states the following:

I performed to MADONNA's "VOGUE" in the Summer of 1991 when my parents took me to Hampton Beach Casino in Hampton Beach, New Hampshire. A business in the casino at the time gave tourists the chance to lip-synch to their favorite pop songs in front of a blue screen background, and I was lucky enough to partake that summer.

In honor of the twentieth anniversary of MADONNA's "TRUTH OR DARE" and in celebration of MADONNA's upcoming "W.E.", here is my nine year old self paying tribute to the woman who changed my life and continues to inspire me just as much today as twenty years ago.

Absolutely fabulous Robert! Loved every minute of it!

Land of the Lost: Inside the Heart of the Navy's Graveyard

I took Art as one of my subjects the 4 years I was in High School, and it was by far, one of my most favorite classes. So in no surprise to you, nothing fascinates me more than Art and Photography.  Better yet, if I could go back in time to capture images of history, I would.

Imagine waking into a building where it seemed like all the people disappeared, yet everything else in the building remained as it was. It sounds like a scary movie, doesn't it?  In my third issue of Land of the Lost, photographer, Scott Haefner takes us for an incredible adventure unlike any other - a warship graveyard.  At least until the government does away with it in 2017.  He and a group of fellow photographers managed to sneak onto these ships, and take photos that would capture anyone's imagination.  Over a 2 year period, they would spent "several days at a time, photographing, documenting, and even sleeping aboard them - often in the luxury of the Captain's quarters."














On his website, Scott describes in detail, their planning, the history, and the ships' environmental implications.  He also discusses their scouting mission, boarding the ships, and their final trip.

From his website:

For decades, dozens of forgotten Navy and merchant ships have been corroding in Suisun Bay, 30 miles northeast of San Francisco. These historic vessels—the Mothball Fleet—served their country in four wars: WWII, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and Desert Storm. After a decade of impasse, the ghost fleet is slowly dwindling as the ships are towed out one-by-one for scrapping. About 15 retired ships are already gone; by 2017, the entire fleet will be just a memory.

Scott's website is truly amazing to view and read.  If you're a history buff, in the military, or a veteran, you'd definitely get a rise out of it.  Check it out here.

Cover Wars 3 - The Results

Sam Tsui has taken the crown once again, he won the rematch over Ben Chambers for his cover of "Jar of Hearts" by Christina Perri.  He was originally competing for the title against 15 other contestants last Thursday, but when the competition ended on Wednesday, the contest resulted in a tie.

After the rematch this week, and with only 13 votes, Sam Tsui took the Cover Wars Gold Album with 7 out of the 13 votes cast.  This is the first time I actually created an award for the winner; Before it was just winning the title.

Congratulations Sam!  If you ever "Google" your name or a cover to a particular song, and you somehow manage to stumble upon my blog, I wish you the very best on your endeavours.

Let's listen to the cover once more...

Meet Your Season 8, So You Think You Can Dance Top 20

I haven't been blogging about this year's So You Think You Can Dance, because I didn't feel the need to waste my time writing about the auditions.  Ryan and I saw them, and nothing's different.  Well, the hot tamale train a.k.a. Mary Murphy was back, but other than that it was the same routine, as it is year after year.  There were a few we had hoped would make it, but nothing too earth shattering.  Then again, I would have been pissed if little Jess Leprotto would not have made it through - he's adorable.

This year's top 20 were chosen a wee differently this year, instead of choosing them, and waiting to the following week to see them perform, they actually revealed the contestants a handful at a time, then cut to a live studio audience on their new stage.  It was pretty spectacular way of introducing the contestants - Kudos to the producers of the show!

The first four dancers to be chosen were Melanie Moore, Sasha Mallory, Miranda Maleski, and Ricky Jamie (The Contemporary Group).  They performed to a fabulous song I never heard before, "In This Shirt" by The Irrepressibles.  Choreographing this performance was Stacey Tookey.  I absolutely loved this piece!  I'm a big fan of contemporary dancing, so this, along with a couple others, was my favorite tonight.

Next up were Chris Cole, Tadd Gadduang, Robert Taylor Jr., and Wadi Jones (The Hip Hop Group).  They performed to, "Everyday (Coolin')" by Swizz Beatz feat. Eve.  Choreographing this performance was Dave Scott.  Another excellent performance, not to mention two of my favorite boys, Tadd and Wadi were in this bunch.

Another one of my favorites of the night, Iveta Lukosiute, who had auditioned before, but never made it, finally got her chance.  She performed a ballroom number with season 3 hottie, Pasha!  They danced to Ven a Bailar (On The Floor) by Jennifer Lopez feat. Pitbull.  I actually like this version better than the one currently playing on the radio.

Jordan Casanova, Marko Germar, Missy Morelli, and Clarice Ordaz (The Jazz Group), danced to, "Vanguardian" by Steed Lord.  Choreographing the performance was Sonya Tayeh.  This performance had Sonya written all over it, and rightly so - it was utterly amazing.

The next two contestants I'm in love with.  It's okay Ryan knows this. :))  Jess Leprotto (Broadway) and Nick Young (Tapper) were next to learn they made it to the top 20.  They performed to "Funkier Than a Mosquito's Tweeter" by Nina Simone - never heard of it.  This performance was choreographed by Christopher Scott.  While I love the two boys, I'm not a fan of broadway or tap, but they did make it really fun - Nick is a really good Tapper.

The final 5, Caitlyn Lawson, Ryan Ramirez, Mitchell Kelly, Ashley Rich, and Alexander Fost (Another Contemporary Group), took to the stage dancing to, "Moth's Wings" by Passion Pit.  The performance was choreographed by season 2 alumni, Travis Wall - he has truly made a name for himself with the extraordinary performances he creates.

You can catch 3 more performances after the jump...

Isn't This The Truth? The Box

LMAO!  Isn't this chart the truth? I think I've tried everyone of them, minus the infant.  C'mon, what do you take me for? LOL

Gay Power! Houston's Very Own Kurt Hummel Stuns Judges on America's Got Talent

Ryan and I have been a fan of America's Got Talent since it's inception, and while we haven't necessarily agreed with the champions each season, we throughly enjoy the show.  The things some of these people do are crazy.  And it isn't any easier if they're auditioning in your state, much less your city.

Last night's auditions were in Houston, Texas, and one performer stuck with us the most.  The performance by 19-year-old, Daniel Joseph Baker from Katy, a suburb of Houston.  When Ryan and I saw him in the previews to the show, we immediately knew he was family (gay slang for "He's a member of the family. He's gay.").  Sure enough, he let it be known that he was.  He was as flamboyant as anyone could ever be - reminiscent of GLEE's Kurt in some ways.  But it wasn't his personality that surprised us the most, it was his voice that was beyond-belief amazing!  When he started belting out the song to Lady Gaga's Bad Romance, the audience, and the judges went crazy.  They were all thrown off their rockers when they witnessed a young gay man taking it to town on his keyboard. He was "fierce!" (even more gay slang). Watch the outstanding performance from last night. He clearly puts American Idol's, Scotty to shame. Loved it!

Ryan and I were yelling, "Gay Power!" "Gay Power!", when he received a standing ovation from the audience.  This is something we usually do when we know there's "family" in reality shows.  This is our way of cheering for the few, and the proud.  We adore you Daniel, and we'll continuously cheer you on!

Must Watch: Where Have The Years Gone?

Let's take a look back and reflect on the movie saga of the decade. It been 10 years since the first Harry Potter movie, Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone, made it's way into our theaters, and into people's hearts.  For those who have read the entire series of books, this was a long-time hoping.  For those who never read the book, like myself, this was a long-time coming.

It's mind-baffling to me that 10 years ago today I hadn't even moved to Houston yet, 9/11 was still 3 months away, and the world was just coming to grips with the new millennium. Yet, people's minds were eager to watch a young wizard fight evil.  I can only imagine what you were doing when the first movie was released.

Warner Brothers has released footage of the cast when they were children leading up to their final film, in a teaser that will take you back in time to when we were 10 years younger.

 

Mind-Boggling News: Let's Play Russian Roulette With A Dog

Here's a mind-boggler for you.  You know I can never stop bitching about stupid people, but this cuts the cake.  Well.. maybe not.  I've posted some other mind-boggling news that were pretty outrageous.

Apparently drinking did little to help Russell Little with his depression Tuesday night.  Not only did the Indiana man take it upon himself to play Russian Roulette (you know - the game where 2 idiots take turns firing a gun at each other's heads with only 1 bullet in it), with his dog.  Let's see, how do I put this?

In simplest turns - The doggie won.

Of course the facts are in dispute, but this is what I grabbed from the article:

Little's wife told police he was sitting in the backyard depressed and drinking moonshine when he took a handgun and began playing Russian roulette with the pet dog at about 9 p.m.

After a couple of empty clicks aimed at the dogs head, "She said he got tired of that, then put the gun to his own head and pulled the trigger," said Capt. Jim Andrews of the South Bend Police Department.

Now the story is changing as I write this post. According to close family and friends of Little say,

Mr. Little was NOT playing Russian roulette with his dogs, he loved his dogs...nor was he drinking 'moonshine'. He was a loving and devoted father husband, friend, AND proud dog owner. He will be sorely missed and remembered fondly. - Nicole

Regardless of the outcome, this isn't good either way you look at it.  I can't imagine myself drinking and having a gun in my hand at the same time.  That's a No-No in my book.

OMG Hilarious! - Tall Justin 3

If you didn't get today's comic, its probably because you've missed my two previous posts on Tall Justin. I post a daily Cyanide and Happiness comic from the guys over at explosm.net and I'd have to say, some are downright hilarious.  Here are the two previous Tall Justin episodes, Tall Justin 1 & Tall Justin 2.
