A Little About Me...
After years of failed careers... three years in pharmacology school, a sad attempt at lion taming which led to my partner Roy being mauled by a white tiger, and eleven different inventions being turned down by the US Patent office (damn invisible panty hose!) I have settled on my total lack of career skills and agreed to push buttons for a living at a small outpost built on a land compost in a place called Medford. I push a button every 240 seconds or else 800,000 people will lose contact with the outside world while driving to work in the morning and will be unable to hum along with the philosophical musings of Kelly Clarkson and the Pussycat Dolls.

I was reading TowleRoad yesterday and I found a post about Michelle Obama speaking at a meeting of the LGBT Caucus at the DNC. If I didn't already love her before, this sealed the deal for me.



I listened to parts of what she said and I was impressed. It was almost as good as Teresa Heinz speech four years ago at the same event. I'll never forget that speech because she said one line that really stuck with me. It was about all of the gay and lesbian kids out there whose parents had disowned them because of their sexuality and who had no family to rely on. She welcomed all of them to think of her as "Mama T". I still love her. I didn't so much care for her husband, but I voted for him just to see her as first lady



TowleRoad has definately been the goto site for a gay spin on the convention. But for those of us that need a little meat in between speeches, thankfully he hasn't forgotten us. He posted a link to the new Logo reality series Shirts and Skins about an all gay basketball team. Unfortunately the Logo site only has these little pictures of them, but hopefully more will pop up soon




Continuing through TowleRoad, we come upon the ATP Calendar for 2009 (which I believe stands for American Tennis... something)

I couldn't figure out who any of these people are (nor could I figure out how to get the pictures from their page). Fortunately, TowleRoad knew both, so here ya go













The Backstory

8/27

I have to admit I'm a bit stumped as to what to post today, so I went to my old standby that never lets me down, Daily Young Guys







This site doesn't give any names or information, just nothing but pure young hot guys. Can't argue with that








For more substantive issues (but not by much) I turn to Australia's DNA Magazine, which tackles such hard news topics as this month's cover story, Hottest Man Alive



This year's hottest man alive is Bryan Thomas





Is it me, or does he enjoy his own armpits a bit too much?





I didn't have much time to go through the whole issue, but I did find one more picture worth posting, so enjoy!




8/26

One of the great things about Facebook is that you can create fan groups and games based on anything you want. This makes it exceedingly easy to share hot guys with all of your friends. Some of the guys I've seen this past week I decided to share with you.




Austin Drage


Brent Everett


Dale Howard

Now the downside of this fun new toy is that I have no idea where these guys come from, and I get the feeling some of them may make their money on adult websites, which is why I have opted to not search out more pictures of them on the internet.



It's much safer to check my blog sites which at least tell me where the guys come from and I can judge for myself whether to post them. Over at the BigBadBlog, they have new pictures of Shia LaBeouf from Transformers 2





And this guy.... who's just hot




My friends at Speedo Junkie took a similar interest in the Olympic games that I did, but they found some really great shots of the men's water polo teams







One more hot shot of US Swimmer Ryan Lochte



And a few non-olympic related generic hot guys





Dan in Oklahoma City has two themes to run with this week. First off, another in his Gymspiration series







And second, his ode to Boys and Beer






Don't they just look happy?



8/25


This coming weekend is Labor Day weekend, and while Labor Day signals the end of summer for most people, we should remember to salute the working man on his hard day's work.... (We should also salute the working woman, but I feel like my salute to the working man will be just fine for any women out there...)

Fireman





Soldier







Construction Worker





Business man



Athlete



Electrician



And finally Lifeguard



Finally, I got a chain e-mail from my friend Edna this weekend, and for once it's something I'd actually want to share...



Sick of angel emails?

Ok BE HONEST...how many of you REALLY ENJOY getting little angel love notes
from every person in your address book? 
 

 You know the ones with ~~*I love you so... here's an angel... and some mushy poem crap....* ~~
And like the cute wasn't bad enough, they then THREATEN you with bad luck if you don't send it on to others and back to them to prove you read the email! A vicious tactic! Oh the nerve!

So here's my version:
Take the fairy dust:



Add it to one of those angel mails:




And POOF!!!!:



 
HE'S GOOD LUCK BECAUSE HE PROBABLY MADE YOU SMILE.
WHEN YOU'RE FINISHED TRYING TO SEE UP HIS LOINCLOTH,

(AND YOU JUST LOOKED AGAIN, DIDN'T YOU??)

WHY NOT SEND THIS ON TO SOMEONE AND GET TO THEM SMILE, TOO?  

8/22

I haven't checked in on Kenneth in the 212 in a while, so let's see what he's been up to.

First off, there's a video that he posted almost a month ago that I've been meaning to pass along about Good Manners in the Locker Room. It's pretty raunchy, so don't open it if you're shy (or probably if you're at work...) but its funny and pretty damn hot



Beyond that, here are some of the hot pictures he's had lately. First off, there's model Kristoff Ryan







He also posted a few pictures in a nod to the Olympics of his own favorite amatuer atheletes





In fact, as the Olympics wind down this weekend, pretty much every blog you go to is doing an Olympics recap. The BigBadBlog has Olympic Judo champion from the Netherlands, Ruben Houkes



He also has South African swimmer Ryk Neethling



Italian Wrestler Andrea Minguzzi



The Canadian Canoe team



Belgian Decathelete Hans Van Alphen



and Austrian swimmer Markus Rogan





Daily Young Guys has a great shot of Thomas Finchum, who I've already profiled here



But for the most part, he's been focusing on the hot Chinese atheletes at this year's Olympics







Towleroad has a great shot of Matthew Mitcham



And hopefully the last picture I will ever post of Michael Phelps



And my favorite picture of the week, hot American gymnast Jonathan Horton getting a big hug from his German competitor Fabien Hambuechen



Fabian is a pretty good looking guy himself, and he's not shy. If you search for him on the web, you find all sorts of goodies.









There's eve a video of him practicing routines and flexing!



Finally, I have to give it up to my new buddy Steve for sending me these photos of Olympians doing gay stuff. Gotta love it!







Have a nice weekend!!!
