Rob checked out "Wolf Creek" and Rich Casella caught a recent show with Marco Benevento teaming up with Marc Friedman and Andrew Barr from the Slip.
moisturizer for men?
Surely John Wayne is rolling over in his grave at this...the sunscreen part is actually not a bad idea. Maybe I can use the moisturizer and keep my hetero rep by telling people its just sunscreen!
polymory
I had never heard the term polymory or polymourous until yesterday. It seems I'm one of the last people under 40 to hear about it.

Anna Nicole Smith gets White House help
The former Playmate got a slight boost from the Bush administration, when the Solicitor General's office filed arguments on her behalf in her case before the Supreme Court.The Court will only hear technical legal issues related to federal court jurisdiction, but its always amusing when the stodgy legal community has to deal with a character like Anna Nicole on any level.
I wonder if Justices Thomas and Stevens will be comparing notes on Anna's assets? And, what the government didn't trust Anna's general attorney "Howard K. Stern" to handle the arguments on his own?

Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah
No, I'm not waging a "War on Christmas" - I just happen to know that I have both Christian and Jewish readers.
So, let's skip the PC crap and enjoy the holiday!
I'll be back next Wednesday.

Britney Spears was still top Yahoo search focus
I'm not sure what these people are searching for?
although I'm thinking the Britney post below about a certain video tape may have some hints.

family farmers
This is an interesting local program for farmers that could serve as a model for other areas.
Operation Uplink
Operation Uplink is a unique program that keeps military personnel and hospitalized veterans in touch with their families and loved ones by providing them with a free phone card.
This is a great program to show support for the troops. And, its very important around the holidays - but we should also support these projects all year long.

Carmen Electra eBay auction bidder won't get laid after all
A a man was disqualified from bidding on a date with Carmen Electra on eBay because his bid was too high.
Carmen expressed relief saying "It went up to some crazy number and I actually felt obligated to, like, sleep with the guy. But I didn't, because they were disqualified."
No word on whether the shunned bidder was Dave Navarro.

did Britney Spears make a sex tape?
Britney says no and is suing US Weekly for $20 million for saying she did.Now why would any one say such mean things about this sweet southern girl?
ever just feel like dancing?
me neither. But, if you do...don't do it on the streets of Minneapolis. You just might get arrested for violating city statute statue 427.20, which states.
(Minneapolis Star Tribune).
"No person shall dance or engage or participate in any dancing upon any public street or highway in the city; and no person shall provide for, promote or conduct any dance or dancing upon any public street or highway in the city, except at a block party."
(Minneapolis Star Tribune).
government incompetence
After September 11, 2001, (arguably before, but that's for another time) our national priorities should have shifted to focusing on destroying Al Quaeda and similar terrorists groups and to doing as much as possible to prevent attacks here at home. After all a good defense is as important as a good offense.
Four years later, first responders in major cities are still underfunded, we're still not checking the vast majority of packages and containers entering our ports and now learn that the FBI still doesn't understand how to track down a real terrorist. Instead they've been spending their time and our tax dollars chasing down vegetarians and animal rights activists like PETA.
Granted the article does mention a violent strain of environmental activists, who by all means should be tracked down. But, friends we don't have the luxury of spending time on a vegetarian community and fur protestors when we still haven't tracked down the "thousands of thousands of terrorists" who "were trained at al Qaeda camps in Afghanistan." We've really got to get our act together and focus on the real threats facing our country - the llama fur protestors can wait.

Stalin Super-Warriors
Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin reportedly ordered the creation of Planet of the Apes-style warriors by crossing humans with apes - does that mean some Russian guys banged some monkeys?

Ponderosa Stomp 2006
TWO-DAY MUSIC FESTIVAL WILL BENEFIT NEW ORLEANS MUSICIANS VICTIMIZED BY HURRICANE KATRINA
NEW ORLEANS, La. — Ponderosa Stomp, the annual New Orleans roots music romp that draws music fans from all over the world, will find a temporary home in Memphis in 2006. The festival will take place May 9 & May 10 at the city’s multi-level Gibson Factory. The money raised will be split between the New Orleans Musicians Clinic and a special fund to be administered by the Mystic Knights of the Mau-Mau — producers of the Stomp — to directly help New Orleans and Gulf Coast musicians. In the wake of damage dealt by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, the Mystic Knight of the Mau Mau want to try to help musicians rendered homeless and jobless by these disasters. The event will return to New Orleans in 2007.
Tickets for the event will cost $40 per night, with music starting at 5 p.m. and running until at least 2 a.m.
According to Ponderosa Stomp promoter Dr. Ike, a full-time resident of New Orleans, "New Orleans and Gulf Coast musicians have played a major role in the development of American music. Without them, such musical forms as jazz, blues, R&B, rock 'n' roll, Zydeco and Cajun music would not exist as we know them. Katrina and Rita have greatly affected the ability of these musicians to make a living and continue the rich traditions of Louisiana music. The Mystic Knights of the Mau Mau seek to raise money to help out the musicians so they can keep the New Orleans tradition alive."
The internationally renowned Ponderosa Stomp exists to celebrate, pay tribute to, and teach the cultural significance of the unsung heroes and heroines of rock 'n' roll, rhythm & blues and other forms of American roots music while they are still alive. The Stomp festival and its year-round activities provide both a voice and career revival to overlooked sidemen, session musicians and other influential pioneers whose contributions have shaped American culture for over 50 years.
New Orleans and Gulf Coast-based artists confirmed to play this year's Ponderosa Stomp include Clarence "Frogman" Henry, Joe Clay, Jay Chevalier, Rebirth Brass Band, Willie Tee, Eddie Bo, Al "Carnival Time" Johnson, Rockie Charles, Tammy Lynn, Warren Storm, Lazy Lester, The Bad Roads, Barbara Lynn, Roy Head, Lil Buck Sinegal and Archie Bell. Memphis area-based artists confirmed to perform include Scotty Moore, DJ Fontana, Sonny Burgess, Hayden Thompson, Ace Cannon, Hi Rhythm Section, Travis Wammack, Willie Cobbs, Kenny Brown and the Bo Keys.
Among the other artists slated to perform at Ponderosa Stomp are The Nightcaps, Kenny & the Kasuals, ? & the Mysterians, Lady Bo, Billy Boy Arnold, Jody Williams, Deke Dickerson & the Eccofonics, Johnny Jones, Chick Willis, Clifton James, James Blood Ulmer, Betty Harris, Dale Hawkins, Dennis Coffey, Herb Remington and The Fabulous Wailers.

Study: Teenage Drinking Leads to Unwanted Sex
Duh? Trust me it continues into the college years too.
High Tech Conference Calling
unveiled by HP. This is some cool stuff and would be very cool if they can adapt it to personal use for telecommuting.
apparently there is a market
for "clipped" men who want to replace their fireman look with a full hood.
First Amendment going by the wayside?
In the latest version of the Patriot Act (scroll down to Title VI, Section 602) someone has added a provision making it illegal to "disrupt" a national security event - which simply means one where the President or Vice President, or anyone who receives Secret Service protection, is appearing. So, even if you are legally at an event to hear the President speak you can go to jail if you "disrupt" the event.
Now, obviously we don't want unauthorized people to breach security. Important to stop that. But, disrupt? Disrupt could simply mean holding up a sign or yelling out a question and if this goes through you could land in you jail for up to a year.
Side Note: I support most of the Patriot Act. But, now under the current political climate if anyone opposes this provision the party in charge will accuse them of opposing the entire act. This is what they did last time around when people simply opposed specific parts. They'll call you unpatriotic for simply speaking out. Of course, desiring the ability to speak out is why the original Patriots fought and died to create this country. Some seem to have forgotten about that. And, if you call me unpatriotic, I've got six words for you: Fuck You, I served - have you?
Oh, and the other thing they'll say is that you're either "for it or against it." How many times have you heard them say "you're either for it or against it." A typical reaction is that's a stupid statement. Obviously you can be for most of the Patriot Act but be against just a few specific provisions.
But, they're not stupid. They know that too. The "you're either for it or against it" language is specifically designed to limit dissent and speaking out. They paint you as the enemy or as not a clear thinker, when in fact you would be engaging in standing up for basic freedoms that our people have fought and died for and engaging in crystal clear thinking.
Maybe someone in the Senate will get some sense and tighten up this language. We know it won't happen in the House.
Land of the free? Not anymore. Or, at least not as much if this kind of thing continues.

Simon Cowell is hot for porn star Tyler Stevens and is now leaving messages on her voice mail. I imagine those will appear on the net somewhere sometime soon.
Jenny Shimizu says she's still gettin' down with Angelina
Brad Pitt may not be the only lucky duck swimming in Angelina Jolie's pond. "Lesbian Supermodel" Jenny Shimizu (mostly known for modeling bare chested in Calvin Klein ads for "One" cologne) - who first reportedly started bedding Angelina back in 1996 when they met on the set of Firefox - says she's still cleaning the carpet in the Jolie residence. On Jenny - in pre-Brad days - Angelina allegedly said "I would probably have married Jenny if I hadn't married my husband (Jonny Lee Miller)..."
In other Jenny Shimizu trivia - she's also been intimate with Ione Skye of "Say Anything" fame who reportedly left her then husband Beastie Boy Adam Horovitz to be with Shimizu.Jenny was also supposedly "friendly" with Madonna for awhile.
And, to show she's looking to break Wilt the Stilt's record for bed partners - she's now married to Rebecca Loos of David Beckham fame.
want free porn?
Ok, so part of me just wanted to type "free porn" into the blog so I could score some Google hits from some wishful thinkers...but, there is a story here.
You can get free porn - yes, another gratuitous mention - if you trade in your Bible for some (notice I didn't type "free porn" there when I could have) at the University of Texas in San Antonio.
Just watch out for lightning bolts as you walk away from the trade-in table.

porn going mainstream?
Seems like porn is everywhere these days, even MSNBC is doing a special on it. Of course, they cover Playboy as part of the special, when we all know that Playboy is not porn in the mainstream sense of the word.

giving the gift of wine...
Our friends at Wild Horse Winery have some holiday specials including free shipping for all cases bought before December 15th.If you want an introduction to wine you may consider joining their wine club.

December 7, 1941
A special thanks to all those that served in WWII. Its been called the "Democrat War" over the years. But, WWII was a great American - indeed a worldwide - struggle against some nasty folks. Its funny how back then it was ok to disagree with a war time president. Today if you do it people falsely accuse you of being a traitor.

US still unprepared for terror attack at home
Every time someone critizes this administration for not properly allocating our resources in the war on terror they are either attacked or dismissed as "playing politics." Well we all know that the 9/11 Commission are deadly serious folks, equally made up of Democrats and Republicans, so no one with credibility can call them partisan or deride them for trying to score political points. So, I take it pretty damn seriously when these folks say the administration is continuing to ingore security holes here at home. Many of these recommendations predate the Commission and the Commission's report is now over a year old. Yet, the problems remain. I hope someone gets a foot up their butt to get these things addressed.

I'm crushing hard on Reese Witherspoon
