AXE-ing

You know you are headed to New Orleans when the gate boarding agents may "axe" you to check oversized items.

Ugly Homefront

WOW! Things just got unexpectedly ugly in New Orleans with my brother and parents.
As much as I said yesterday, I don't think I am going to be able to handle it.

Weekend Update

It's been a hectic couple of days. Well, week actually. I haven't had much time to get some healthy blogs out.

HERE! and THERE
I did go out last night to Here! for an extra long night that saw me unlocking my front door at 5:30am. YIKE! ...I feel a little guilty because I should have used that time to catch up, but yea, not so much. It was fun though. FIERCE!
It's been so hectic in my office with reconciling the Palm Springs Pool Party records, the major preparations for HustlaBall London like rooming lists, hotel selection, sponsors, etc. and other events like Orlando for GayDays next week. (..which is the same weekend Gay Pride in Los Angeles. ARGH!) Plus, we have a large event in Ft. Lauderdale that FabScout Entertainment is largely helping with on the near horizon that is taking up some time each day. We also have Pittsburgh's Pool Party right around the corner and the full weekend of events in Pittsburgh for Pride.
It sounds busy and it is, but trust me, it's all very rewarding, don't get me wrong.

MY BROTHER'S BABY BOY
My brother had a baby yesterday. Well actually, his wife did, it wasn't him who had the baby.
I am not sure what happened, but there was some drama at the hospital with my mom and my brother. It kills me because it's his first friggin' kid and things went haywire. I don't know who's more spoiled and that's frankly not my call to make, but I deemed this the time to make an emergency trip to New Orleans and spend a day with my family. It is an easy way out actually because it's only for one full day. ...that's a long trip.
What's crazy is that my brother and his wife were told that it was going to be a girl and it came out a boy. I bet my brother is happy, but ummmm... I hope they can exchange many of the things they got for the little tyke.
...and for everyones sake, I hope he's not too much like my brother. *wink*
My hick brother is 3 years younger than I am. He was always the troublemaker growing up. Now we have totally reversed roles. He's settled down with a wife and lives is the bayou of Louisiana as red neck as he can. He loves it and for that, I am thrilled for him. He's happy working offshore on oil rigs and sitting in the yard at night drinking beer. Good for him.
I find that I am always too busy to make time for my family. I mean, I always have an excuse why I can't go see them when something momentous happens. I keep a busy lifestyle and I need that to stay productive. I don't know if that will change drastically, but I have evaluated in my own head that this is something I should support him and my parents in if I physically am able to.

HAMBURGER MARY'S WEST HOLLYWOOD
Now that throws a kink into things this weekend. It's been so hectic and many people have wondered if we are indeed going to have the RentBoy.com Night at Hamburger Mary's in West Hollywood. Simply put, yes, the night will go on. I won't be able to attend myself, but I am not needed to make the night happen.

WEEKEND TRAVELS AND ESCORT TRACKER
I have Mitchell, the San Diego hottie who will be in town this weekend at 'The Pimp Plaza' along with Antonio Milan while I am away.
Rusty leaves for a four week or so United States tour this weekend. His schedule includes cities like Washington DC; Toronto, Canada; New York and a few others.
CoolTom will be in from San Diego as well this weekend, but that's becoming the norm and I love it.
Cameron Taylor is also slated to be in Los Angeles this weekend making things brighter and happier in his own special way. *wink*

Boy of the Moment - Paul Pratt

My "Boy of the Moment" tonight comes from Citiboyz.
Check out www.PrattPorn.com for more of this cutie.

"Why folks got to be so ghetto?"

My friend Ben sent me these photos from a website called www.hotghettomess.com. The email is titled, "Why folks got to be so ghetto?"

Good gracious. Now far be it from me to call someone out on being themselves, that's certainly not what I am about. I am all about celebrating your individuality, but it does make me wonder.

You can see many more ummmm... interesting and ummmm... individually celebratory (...yea, that'll work.) photos at http://hotghettomess.com/hgm/Pictures.asp.

GayChicago Magazine Grabby's Party Photos

GayChicago Magazine printed some photos from the opening night party at Charlie's in Chicago for the Grabby's.

I have on my "I [HEART] Jason Sechrest" on the front and "...a little bit." on the back. *hehe*

Tyler Peter needs to STOP HIS HOTNESS RIGHT NOW!

Right or Left Brain

I was trying to figure out which side of the brain I use more (...if any.) and how how I can use the other side.

I found THIS exercise online (...which means it MUST be true.) and thought it was interesting.

I am much more left brain than right.
Now I need to decide how I am going to use my right brain more.

The Right Brain vs Left Brain Test … Do you see the dancer turning clockwise or anti-clockwise?

If you are seeing clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the brain and vice versa.

LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS

uses logic
detail oriented
facts rule
words and language
present and past
math and science
can comprehend
knowing
acknowledges
order/pattern perception
knows object name
reality based
forms strategies
practical
safe

RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS

uses feeling
“big picture” oriented
imagination rules
symbols and images
present and future
philosophy & religion
can “get it” (i.e. meaning)
believes
appreciates
spatial perception
knows object function
fantasy based
presents possibilities
impetuous
risk taking

WILL RETURN

I am back. It's been a busy week, and I know that's no excuse not to have some blog entries up, but guess what? It's gonna have to do.

I am back in my office after a fun filled weekend at the Grabby's, the Military Ball, and International Mister Leather in Chicago.
Now I am preparing for two more pool parties, HustlaBall London and Orlando Gay Days all in a few weeks.

Palm Springs Pool Party 2008 Photos

Here are the photo galleries from the Palm Springs Pool Party.

http://www.partywithbrandon.com/photos/palmspringspoolparty2008/index.html

http://www.partywithbrandon.com/photos/palmspringspoolparty2008oasis/index.html

Thank you to Helios Resort, Howard and Matt at FabScout Entertainment, CockyBoys, GayHotMovies, Andrew Christian and Andrew Briskin, the Palm Springs Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, INLA Magazine, Odyssey Magazine, Pulp Magazine, Oasis Nightclub, and all the amazing guys who put on a GREAT show.

Thanks also to the resorts that hosted some of the porn stars who attended. Chaps Inn, Century Palm Springs, Canyon Club, CCBC, The Desert Bear, La Dolce Vita Resort, and Camp Palm Springs.

RuPaul's Drag Race and Kandy

I heard from my buddy Jason Carter, one of Dallas' finest, whom I call, "Tranny Magnet". (I seriously don't know how he does it.)
His girlfriend, (...ummmm, I think that's what I am supposed to call her.) is one of my favorite drag personalities out there. She's beautiful.
She's working it out for a new show on LOGO called RuPaul's Drag Race and it's a voting based concept, so I am relaying the link to vote for her so you can help her hotness stand out! *wink*
I am excited for her and I can't wait to watch her on TV!

It's pretty crazy that I know some of the other girls in the running from when I lived in Ohio and went to the "Interbelt nightclub." As far as I am concerned, Dallas (Kandy's home) and mid-western Ohio are the drag capitols of the United States. Those fierce bitches are not joking around and they take it so seriously.

Head over to http://rupaulsdragrace.logoonline.com/people/kandyslayer200 and cast your vote for your favorite dragster!

Free McDonald's Chicken Buscuit

I received a few emails this morning about McDonald's free chicken biscuit's they are giving away tomorrow.
It makes me laugh, do my friends all know I can't wait until the morning now or what?

Palm Springs Pool Party Performers

I have finally worked out MOST of the hotel and rooming list for the 45 odd porn stars and rentboy's (...and some that don't do the other.) that will be converging on Palm Springs this weekend.
Thanks to Howard at FabScout and Matt for helping me with the details.

Of course, not all these made it onto the www.rentboypoolparty.com website. We are a day away from the new version of www.rentboy.com version 5.0 so the programmers have been sort of distracted.
The site is looking GREAT and I am very proud of them.

Here is an alphabetical list of the guys who are slated to be at the pool party on Saturday the 17th of May.

I am sure I will have a couple more additions and a couple more missing in action. I've already had a few that were supposed to come and I was all excited that won't be coming. ...but that's okay. It's just one of the most fun and sexy parties of the year. *wink*

Zoom Your Way to London

Bloody hell, mate.
My fierce boss, Jeff, called me and told me about a few flights he wanted me to book and some boys to call for the London HustlaBall.

I booked my own flight on Angel Benton Airlines, errrr... Virgin Airlines. (He may not be for long though!) I hope they let me even board the plane. I think I will set down a napkin and it will start to ash. YIKE!

Okay, even if my napkin went up in flames, it's okay, 'cause look what I found. Can you believe this deal? It's Great Britain London for $149.00 one way. Granted the way back would be $289.00 but still, and put together it's still less than most of the boys on the site make in three hours. I think that's a little less than I spent at Here! Lounge last night. *DOH!*

You can see from the listings on the right that the days I need, the 12th to the 16th are slim, but so are the prices.

...and look at this special to the left, one way, $149.00. CRAZY! It ain't no eight cents, but it's still a cool fare.

I haven't heard of the airline, Zoom, and I sure as anything living and breathing hope they stay in business until the 16th of June for porns sake. (...and my sake.)

Tell the Queen, tell all your queeny friends, tell 'em both - book now.

Cajun Music Craving

I am in the mood for some Cajun music tonight and it's killing me listening to it.
I want to be wandering the streets of New Orleans hearing my own music in my head.

I look for some music and remembered that you can't call Cajun msuic Zydeco music and vice versa. They are often lumped together, but try and tell a Creole that they are Cajun. It's not pretty.

I called my brother for some advice and he told me about Travis Matte and the Kingpins.
You have to listen to THIS (That Butt Thing) first song, it's hilarious and I can't believe that I heard this song twice in my life.



My little brother played it at Christmas when I as at his Lafayette, LA house and sure enough, it was on YouTube for a Cajun wedding video I saw.
Travis is kinda cute and very Cajun in this video for his song, Vibrator. (I don't like the latter nearly as much as the first.)

Other fun Cajun music:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=0i069e4gTGc - Cajun Computer Guys, it's a good example, but not what I was looking for.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=2bRdZ3R2414 - Cajun in the French Quarter - that' s what I was thinking of.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=e7LW64TS_IA - Dining at Mulate's with some Cajun music. Mulate's is this traditional Louisiana restaurant that is in a few places in the real LA. (postal abbreviation) The one on St. Charles Avenue in New Orleans used to be a Maserati car
dealership.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=ULLym4hFxvo - Mary Chapin Carpenter with some classic Cajun.

Dr. John always had some good New Orleans flavored music when I need it.
So does Rockin' Dopsie of Rockin' Dopsie, Jr. & The Zydeco Twisters.

I didn't get my fill tonight, but I sure did satisfy a craving that I had for some real New Orleans Cajun music.

Statler and Waldorf

I love them. They rock. Angel Benton and I (...or once a year, Brian Rush and I.) are these two idiots.

I did some research as who they were and of course THIS is the best information. However, I want to know more. Now I like them even more because they are both named after hotels! SHUT UP! I wondered, "Where are the wives?" Sure enough, Wikipedia had the answer.

I think Angel and I should be them for Christmas. I mean Halloween.

...for more Muppet fun, check out this clip of the "Bear Wit Project". I think the Muppets are like a sort of Saturday Night Live current events parody's that appeals to kids but is very adult humor.

Animals - House of the Rising Sun

You are a wikip-idiot like Angel Benton, CLICK HERE to find out more about this song that I think is a three-fourth's good embodiment of New Orleans.

Check out the "original" version HERE.

The lead singer of this "Animals" version is kinda hot.

Boy of the Moment - BRandom Boys

Here are some hot "Boy of the Moment" posts I have from those magazine pages I have been scanning that I have been saving for years.

Here's one of some racer guy that is hot and has hot armpits.

The next is a 2Xist underwear ad.

The last is a scan from 'The Guide' Magazine when it featured New Orleans. It's the boys of the 'Corner Pocket' which is more of the "Hustler-esque" type boys that really get me going too often. These boys are no exception.
