Aww Saturday!
A typical Saturday except it was raining here in Florida. I woke up and we had a delicious breakfast that consisted of pancakes mmmmm. Then we headed out to the mall, what else can you do on a rainy day? Well we hit all the stores. I needed something from the Zirh counter at Bloomies, well the rep was there that sold me my first Zirh products over five years ago. It was nice seeing her she reminds me of a beautiful drag queen back home in Ohio lol. I know that sounds bad but she is very nice looking. Then I went to AF and bought two polos today, I really needed some everyday clothes so I broke down and bought them. Oh oh and as we left Macy's they caught a shoplifter that they chased down in the parking lot and took down to the ground, he really struggled. What I don't understand is why people shoplift at Macys, everything is always on sale there and it is not like it is Nieman Marcus we are talking about? pfft people are dumb! For dinner my roommate and I went to Moe's for some burritos mmm good! Ok now only one more week of work before we are off for a three day weekend in South Florida yay!

TheSword: Porn Stars To Producers: Condoms Not Enough!
Interesting and scary story on theSword website:
Almost 30% of gay adult industry performers in the survey were either HIV positive or didn't know their status. While most were comfortable working with HIV positive performers, many were concerned about the lack of discussion surrounding HIV and STDs on set . Over 80% of performers strongly agreed or somewhat agreed that condom-using studios provided adequate safety measures to protect them from HIV, but little more than half of the respondents felt that the they were being protected adequately from non-HIV risks like hepatitis, HPV or syphilis.

RoomRaiders -Gay Edition
I love watching these, but always miss them since I am not a regular MTV watcher.
Cher is back!
I have been waiting for sometime for this announcement! Yes this is the fag in me, but I will be making a trip to Las Vegas in October to see her!
"The indestructible diva, who retired from touring in 2005, will star in a song-and-dance spectacle starting May 6 at the 4,100-seat Colosseum in Caesars Palace. She'll perform four shows weekly for one month, then return mid-August through early October, leapfrogging stints with Bette Midler. Her pact with promoter AEG Live extends three years.
Says Cher: "Creatively, we're doing something that's never been done with sets. Getting the whole thing in book form, in pictures, has taken months. Our set moves down from the ceiling, in from the sides, up from the floor. We have screens in the foreground, the center and the back. We can change a city into a forest in two seconds. You'll see a different stage for every song."
The show plans to cover "all chapters of Cher's career, from her Sonny & Cher start to her recent dance-pop phase" according to the paper. (source)

Just an update
I just notice it has been a whole week since I have posted. I have sorta been in a funk lately. My grandmother passed away last week so I have to deal with that. And just sorting out all my finances, my tax return also was deposited already. But I have paid off a lot of my credit card debt which is a good thing. Also have planning a few trips for the spring, in February we are going to Ft Lauderdale for a nice weekend trip. And then in May we are flying to LA and San Fransisco. That should be fun since I have only been to the airports before hehe.
Last night we went out to Phouse which was a lot of fun but of course smelled like a damn ashtray afterwards. I just wish they would bite the bullet here in Florida and ban smoking in bars as well.

Stetson Student Targeted For Homosexuality
A man at Stetson University went from student to activist because of a hateful slur.
Now he is asking people to help him teach tolerance, WESH 2 News reported.
Will Daly was living a normal life as a Stetson University student who was gay, but things began to change, he said, when he woke up one morning and found a horrific word etched into his dorm door.
"It happened early in the morning, so I figured somebody was probably drunk," Daly said.
But when it happened again on a wall in the dorm laundry room, he said hit home.
"Just the words 'death to fag,' just the word 'death' is a threat to my life and to other gay students in my hall," Daly said.
Daly notified school officials and an investigation began. Shelley Wilson, an official with the university, said that the school does not condone hate words in any way, but for the incident there was no rule condemning it.
"We've got to make that zero-tolerance official in terms of policy and procedures and practices and that's exactly what we've begun to do," Wilson said.
But Daly decided to take it a step further and enlisted the help of Judy Shepard to come and speak about tolerance at a school symposium later this month.
Shepard is the mother of Matthew Shepard, who was killed in Wyoming for being gay.
"That's definitely something that needs to be brought to the public eye, especially in Florida," Daly said.
Daly said he has decided to leave Florida and go back home up north after the symposium.
"If I can't feel safe here, I don't see myself living here," he said.
School officials said they are still investigating who etched the word to Daly's door and said that when they find out who did it, the student will be suspended.

Jonathan Vargas: Next Magazine
There is a great feature in NEXT magazine on J this week.....check
After exploding onto the scene in two Lucas Entertainment hits, Michael Lucas' La Dolce Vita and The Intern, Jonathon Vargas is living the sweet life—and not by accident. "I wasn't discovered," the 22-year-old New York City native clarifies. "I did research and went to adult film companies myself." It's that ambition, not to mention his adorable looks and boundless sex drive, that makes him porndom's new boy on top.
"Honestly it feels great and scary at the same time," he admits when asked about being named a Who's Next. "Before my first scene I was thinking that there was no going back," he says coyly, "but nervous? Never."
Given his sizzling ability to put spank banks on overdraft, including those of Next Magazine's porn-reviewing duo who named him as one of their up-and-cumming favorites, Vargas isn't letting his success go to his head. On the contrary, his combination of twink-next-door innocence and expansive confidence adds up to surprising charm. "Once you know me, you can tell I'm a guy with flaws like any other person," he says, noting he's as likely to be caught club hopping as catching up on a book in Union Square Park. Having finished a year that saw him steaming up the screen in Encounters 5 and Cruising Budapest IV as well as being featured in Time Out New York's infamous sex issue with fellow big gun Ben Andrews, Vargas is enjoying his exclusive contract with Lucas and taking everything in stride. "I traveled to Europe and I get my gym membership and haircuts taken care of, so I have a smile on my face."
"In '08 I'll continue to work 'hard,'" he continues with a wink. "I want to make myself more visible." Any details? "My dream [scene partner] is Benjamin Bradley, and I'd really like to do a big orgy scene with at least six hot guys—all sweaty and lubed up!" he adds naughtily, revealing his unpredictability and ambition as less physical but equally ample aspects of his calling card. "I'm the one to watch out for, because if you don't you'll miss out on all the goodies that I offer." —Derrick Reaves (Source NEXT)
