Slammer away.

Slammers in Ft. Lauderdale is still going strong. It seems to be getting busier and busier every week. Friday and Saturday nites are packed and usually starts to fill up at 10:30 - 11:00 PM. Don't forget you can Bring Your Own booze too. Where else can you watch porn, hear great music, drink for cheap and have great sex? I hear that it's even taking business from some of Ft. Lauderdale's hot bath houses.

3-month membership is $29 and includes your entrance for the night. After that, your entrance fee is only $14 (except for Sat and Sunday early release...members get in for 1/2 price.). You can only bring in liquor if you get a 3-month membership...so if you are an out-of-towner with friends...One of you buy the membership and bring in the booze. The others pay a one night only fee of $19.

It's a fun time...and I've been going waaay too much lately. What's a guy to do when he's got an itch to scratch huh? Christmas and New Years will be packed for sure.

Slammers is located at-
321 W. Sunrise Blvd. Can't miss the '321' yellow sign.

Early vote if you can! Tuesday is going to be a madhouse at every polling place in the US, so go vote today if you can!

We really need to make sure McCain and his hateful running mate Palin don't make it into the White House. Every vote is needed so we can be sure it's an Obama/Biden win! Palin is a wacko that will try to take away all of your rights that don't follow her church's beliefs. She is against gays and I would bet she's only met people of other races this year.

If you are in Florida...VOTE NO ON 2! If you know someone in Florida...call them and tell them to vote NO ON 2!

Wicked Manors a total blast.

(Wicked Manors 2008 - Wilton Manors Florida...2008)

Wicked Manors (Wilton Manor's Halloween street party) was a huge success again this year. The party started yesterday at around 7 PM and lasted until after 11 PM. Once the street party vendors closed...everyone hit the many bars on the Drive. Actually...all the bars were packed by 9 and everyone was in a party mood.

(Bill's Filling Station on the Drive was 'full'.)

I didn't snap too many pictures...I was kind of too busy keeping track of my drinks :) Of course I had to hit Slammers on Sunrise Blvd after Wilton Drive. Slammers was packed as well...not too many guys in costume though. I left Slammers with my thirst quenched. :)

(Wilton Manors Police had a cool 'police' 3 wheel Segway.)

(Hmmm...new store on Wilton Drive in the works....'Rock Hard'. Wonder what they are gonna sell??)

Florida Early Voting starts tomorrow!

Vote, VOTE, VOTE!!!

Florida early voting starts tomorrow...so there is no excuse for any Florida resident not to make it.

Anyone that has friends or family in Florida...please tell them to VOTE NO on Amendment 2. Although it is currently illegal in the state for 2 gays to marry...Amendment 2...if passed, will define marriage as only a man and woman...along with only marriage unions will be recognized. This would add discrimination to the state constitution and also could impact any str8 domestic partnership that are currently allowed in the state.

If you are a Florida resident...VOTE NO! on 2!

Ok...I'll get off my soapbox now. This is actually the first general election that I feel so emotionally invested in the outcome. Lets just hope McCain/Palin doesn't win. Can you imagine?

Palin the dummy.

Well it looks like the Palin investigation has found that she abused her power in Alaska. Big shocker there huh? It's really scary that someone this dumb has made it this far in US politics. While she did 'ok' at the debate...it still had pieces of the blundering buffoon we all saw in the interviews. It was over-hearsed and when there was a question they didn't rehearse she didn't answer it. Smart for a dummy.

Here's a funny video that mashes together every ignorant interview Palin gave. No wonder why she's not giving any more interviews. If you notice...all appearances are speeches now.

Start planning Halloween in Wilton Manors!

This year the name of the huge Halloween Block Party is "Wicked Manors" Since Halloween falls on a Friday, I predict this will draw a ton of people and be one hell of a party.

The 'theme' of the night is the 'Silver Scream'. Totally a camp fest....should be lots of fun.

Here is some info from their website:

"Dust off those wigs and over-the-top costumes, it's time to celebrate the most ghostly of holidays ... Halloween. Join us in Greater Fort Lauderdale for the hottest party in Florida – the Wicked Manors Block Party on Wilton Drive in Wilton Manors.

This year’s theme, “The Silver Scream” will feature classic horror films from the past with party-goers in more eclectic and eccentric costumes than anywhere in South Florida. Female impersonators, contests, food vendors, bars and themed booths will fill “The Drive” with lots of good old Halloween fun.

Looking to play some tricks or get some treats then come to one of these devilishly fun events or contests:

5 pm: Trick or Treat on the Drive
Get in the Wicked Manors spirit and trick-or-treat the entire length of the Drive from 5 pm to 7 pm. Participating businesses will offer special “treats” for the kids and adults and be on the lookout for your favorite storefront decorated in the spirit of Halloween!

7 pm: Wicked Manors Block Party Begins
Party the night away with a fabulous DJ and other live or (undead) entertainment.

Pet Costume Contest: Don't leave the pets at home! Dress up your dog, costume your cat, masquerade your mouse! Furry friends can win big in this contest! Prizes will be awarded for large and small breeds.

Celebrity Look-A-Like Contest: Has anyone ever told you that you look like Marilyn Monroe or maybe Hugh Grant? Here's your chance to dress like a diva, wear movie star make-up, be a Britney (or not). Celebrate your inner celebrity and join the fun.

Drag Queen Walk Off! Bring out the high heels for this one! A quick walk down the runway, past the crowds and back to the stage - FIERCE!

Costume Contest: The prizes get bigger and the judging gets tougher! Can you be the scariest? Or even the best?

Winners announced throughout the evening and at 11 pm, we crown the Lord and Lady of Wicked Manors! "

It appears the event is free, you'll just have to pay for parking. Also, for those of you not familiar with the area, there are many bars on 'The Drive' and I guarantee you can make a whole night of it. The Pride night festival was a blast and I'm really looking forward to this event.

This was a shocker huh?

I'm sure everyone is still in shock. Well maybe only the ultra-conservative Palin followers. Everyone in the gay community KNEW this for a looooong time. Do we really care? Hell yeah! Makes for great gossip.

I happen to know someone personally that Clay wanted to shag. It appears that Clay loves Black Men as well. Clay invited a few people over for a party years ago and wanted to screw around with my friend. Clay had his bodyguard ask him if he wanted to mess around. Weird huh? He couldn't even ask himself.

Let's hope he's finally happy with his child and leads a calmer more peaceful life. Maybe he will open some eyes in the conservative camp too. You never know.

Living Room VIP Club open soon in Ft. Lauderdale

Living Room has been hyped for months now. They began the hype around Gay Pride in June and things finally seem to be approaching a climax. It is located at the Las Olas Riverfront Complex and hopefully it will live up to the hype and the $3 Million price tag. It's not a 'total' gay nightclub, but it is owned and operated by the Gays. Friday will be the 'designated' gay nite, but all nites are 'gay friendly'.

The Living Room is decribed as featuring "3 rooms all designed for your visual pleasure. As you enter the club there is an approximately 8' by 10' door with Angelina Jolie on it and she greets you, winks at you and blows kisses. The Opal Room will be a base white color, but the entire room is modulated by a LED mood space that responds to physical temperatures and body reactions. The second is the Meditation Room which is a living loft on the water with a very industrial, simple, clean feel. The third room is called “The Gate” which is their hardcore dance room powered by Dynacore (also at Space in Miami). The walls and ceilings are all made from grass and the bar-tops are liquid and respond to temperature. Inverness (meaning heaven) is the outside area and is Chic, contemporary, sophisticated, minimalist, with beds (ala Nikki Beach). The theme for the outside was based on fire and water."

Living Room should be opening in the next few weeks...so stay tuned!

This hurricane season feels soooo damn long. South Florida has been so (knock knock) lucky this year....at least so far. Hurricane Ike is going to treat someplace in the Caribbean like Tina and kick the crap out of them.

Matty's on the Drive opens!

Wilton Manors is seeing quite a few new bars opening. The latest on the scene is 'Matty's' located right on 'The Drive' (Wilton Dr.). It's in a prefect location too, right in the middle of all the restaurants and bars on The Drive. I haven't been there yet, but they advertise '1/2 price Happy Hour' from 11 AM - 9 PM...which means I have to make it there soon! This place could become the perfect 'after dinner' spot for cheap drinks. I also think they will have a Nintendo Wii set up for use of some sort. Should be quite interesting.

Cyndi Lauper's back! 6 out of 5 stars!

For those of you that only know Cyndi Lauper as an 80's pop singer....shame shame shame on you!! While she hasn't really caught the 'lighting' through the 90's and 00's...she is one talented singer/songwriter. She is a wonderful person and does so much for out community (the gays). Her voice is unique and she knows how to keep things fresh.

You guys really need to check out her new CD "Bring ya to the Brink". I personally think it's her best CD to date and that's only after 2 listens! This is the kind of CD that Madonna could only dream of releasing. Some of the deluxe versions have 2 remixes that make the CD well over 1 hour. That's one hell of a value.

There are songs on this CD for everyone. There are throw backs to the 70's, 80's and 90's ...all with a Cyndi twist. If the radio doesn't pick up one of these songs, it would be proof that they don't know what good music is.

This by far is my #1 CD choice for the year. Give it a listen and tell your friends. This is one woman that deserves a comeback.

Quick thoughts on Madonna's - Hard Candy

Let me first start off by saying I am a Madonna fan. There have been some great Madonna CD's over the years and some that kind of fall flat (remember American Life?). Well...Madonn's new release 'Hard Candy' dropped today and of course I pre-ordered it on iTunes. First thing in the morning I downloaded it and burned a CD to listen to in the car (and to have as a 'back up'). I hate to say it...and I'll probably get lots of Madonna backlash....but Hard Candy left a bad taste in my mouth.



I do give her credit for evolving her 'sound' every CD release...but I'm not on board with this evolution. Justin Timberlake and Timbaland produce quite a few tracks and that's not a good thing. Timbaland is the 'producer' of the moment and his music sounds the same for every artist he works with. Justin does things a little better with Madonna, but the whole CD makes her voice sound thin and actually not very good at all. Ok...we all know she doesn't have the chopps like Mimi...but she can hold her own. Her voice stands out like it doesn't fit. I also feel that her songwriting skills have taken a step back. I think me and my friends could make up lyrics that are a bit more 'deep' than she does. I get the feeling they created the music...then Madonna came along and added the words. They just don't fit.

The best songs on the CD are the 3 re-mixes. Two for 4 Minutes and one of Give it to Me. This CD isn't horrible, but I expected more I guess. Oh...and I HATE when rappers are brought in to drop a few lines here and there....they don't belong in Madonna songs. Her last 'Hip-Hop' type CD was Bedtime Stories and was GREAT.

Some of the highlights of the CD:
4 Minutes
Give it to Me... (original and remix are growing on me)
Miles Away ... (sounds a lot like an older song of hers though)
She's Not Me... (only a small snippet almost at the end..sounds very retro and is interesting)

Some WTF moments:
Candy Shop....(she motions 'Turkish Delight'...ok, we get it...she loves the UK..silly song and kind of gross if it's a metaphor. Sticky candy doesn't sound sexy... She's 50!)
Spanish Lesson...(this doesn't fit on this CD AT ALL! Basura)
Ring My Bell... (you call this a 'bonus' track? no thanks...my Christmas Bonus at work was better)
Voices...(beginning sounds too N'SYNC. listen...you'll hear it too...lyrics like "are you walking the dog, or is the dog walking you)
Beat Goes On...(the chorus goes on and on and on and on...and she had to throw Kanye West in there...ick.)

What do you think of Hard Candy? Leave a comment and let everyone know.

Pride Under the Sun in Ft. Lauderdale April 12 &13

Ft. Lauderdale's gay community is so proud that it has 2 Pride Events! The summer event in June is called the Stonewall Festival and is held in Wilton Manors...that one is a few months away yet.

Pride Under the Sun (Pridefest) is April 12& 13th! It's billed as the largest Florida Pride Festival and pulls in visitors from all over. Of course they centered the timing around 'spring break' as well. The weather is perfect now...so all you guys from the cold climates need to get down here and have some fun.

The festival is held at Holiday Park on US1 and is held over both Saturday and Sunday. Tickets are $8 ($5 for students...mmm chicken). Vendor booths, live entertainment (yup...drag shows too), DJ and dancing along with tons of food make for a fun time.

Visit http://www.pridesouthflorida.org/ for more info and a listing of all the entertainment and booths. Hope to see you there! Oh...it's close to the bars and to Slammer Club too (hee hee) and we know how much pride we all have when we are cruising the mazes at Slammers.

Some great music...

Ok...I know that Kylie Minogue is a must like for us gays. But her new CD titled 'X' is GREAT. It's been out in the UK for months and we finally get to buy it here. It's a hot dance CD and can stand up to the classic 'Fever' from 2002. I actually think it's better then 'Fever' too. It's got an 'electronic' feel without feeling too 'British'. The 2 videos are hot too. Vibrent, fun and hot. It's the kind of CD that Madonna and Janet wish they could put together. Lets hope that the US market warms to her once again.

Check out the hot video "In My Arms" below:


You can find it on iTunes, Amazon and in stores. Lets show her some love this week!

Boardwalk is expanding. Opening Thursday, February 14th, 2007 is the new 100 seat patio dining area. It's called The Birdcage and I've heard they will be serving up some hot dishes. :) It should be a great addition to the complex. Grab dinner at The Birdcage, then go inside to see the strippers! Hot male strippers....they are always getting the hottest porn stars.

Boardwalk is located at 1721 N. Andrews Ave. in Ft. Lauderdale (right next to Wilton Manors).

What the heck is Florida thinking? Gay Marriage Ban will be on November ballot

A last minute submission of a ballot with the correct number of signatures was processed yesterday at 5 PM that will put a Gay Marriage Ban Amendment on the November ballot.

Of course it was well thought out since now there isn't much time to protest or challenge it until at least Monday. It gets tons of press all weekend. I really wonder what the heck Florida is thinking lately. It almost feels like we live in 2 states. You have the northern half of the state that is ultra-conservative and wanting to ban everything they don't believe in....then you have the southern half that is more accepting. I find it so strange that they think that gay marriage will ruin the 'family'. How many people out there are from a divorced home? Hmmmm sacred huh?

It's going to get ugly in the months to come...and if you are gay and live in the state...the workplace might get a bit uncomfortable as well. You know everyone has an opinion.

These northern Florida religious freaks are getting a bit out of hand. If they want to damn everyone that does not conform to their beliefs...maybe they should move to a communist country....and if there are some African American supporters of this amendment? Or women...shame on you. I seem to recall some history that showed us that they didn't have the same rights as the white man.

So much hate out there will tear this country apart. It's happen before...it will happen again. While I might not want to tie the knot...I think everyone should have the opportunity.

You own a video iPod? Have tons of DVD's but can't find a program that will allow you to copy your own library to your PC? This is the product you can't live without! I've been using it for over a year and it's worked great. It can convert DVD's or other video files on your PC to the same format iPods can read and play. (Porn or regular!)

There are a lot of software boxes that make this claim..but I've been burned in the past. I can honestly say this one works. Here is an offer if you are interested in making the purchase.

Sad day for 'Brokeback' fans.

Heath Ledger, the co-star of the Oscar-winning movie 'Brokeback Mountain' was found dead in a New York City residence today at 3:26 PM.

They don't know the exact cause of death right now...but of course there are rumors flying around that it might be drug related. He was found face down on the floor and they did find some pills near his body. They do not suspect foul play at this time either. He was found by the housekeeper and masseuse who were there for an appointment.

There are also reports that the owner of the residence is Mary-Kate Olsen. How strange.

I'm not sure if his death will impact the filming of the Batman sequel as Heath was picked to play the Joker. If filming has wrapped...it just might impact any re-shoots or voice over work.
Heath was 28.

Heath with hottie Jake!

Great Breakfast spot on The Drive

Under new ownership, The Courtyard Cafe is finding it's place on The Drive. It's PACKED every morning. Every visit seems to be full of gays...so that makes for a great time. It's more of a 'diner' and the staff is VERY friendly. With the customers mostly ranging from mid 30's to 50's...you won't find any pretentious queens. While the twink won't feel out of place...he might get lots of attention. But then again, I've always gone at 9 AM on the weekends...I'm sure the clubbers are still sleeping off last nights drinking.

They have all the traditional items you'd find for Breakfast...and they also serve lunch (salads and sandwiches). They close for dinner...but have recently started to open late nite (Bill's Filling Station Bar is right next door!) serving some light 'after the bar' fare.

I usually end up getting 2 eggs scrambled, bacon and potatoes. Nick is always trying something different. Every meal has been top notch. It's a fun place and am really glad we started going there.
