Taylor Lautner- Superstar!
Taylor Lautner, maybe a werewolf in the most popular vampire movie of the season but he is definitely the breakout star. His Hollywood hunk good looks that has been the biggest driving force eclipsing even the popular characters of the series Bella and Edward.
He plays Jacob Black, who is in love with Bella, but is in the tribe of werewolves . This makes for the compelling push and pull between the enmity that exist between the vampires and werewolves.
Interestingly enough, it has become a marketeer’s dream for the film, since Lautner’s fan base has grown and pitted him against the popular Robert Pattinson. This has made the feverish hunger for the opening of the movie “The Twilight Saga New Moon“ even more epic.
Lautner’s star is on the rise and, by all indications, is going to surpass Pattinson who has not seemed as accessible to the fans.

I Am A Girl That Can’t Say No!
Okay, I have seen that classic movie musical, Oklahoma. There is this song performed with a racy theme called, ” I Can’t Say No!.” I found the following video on You Tube posted by Miss Broadway Dork who does the number with a great voice. However, her great personality and rendition of this song made me laugh and smile this morning.
I hope it does the same for you and brings out your inner “floosie.”

Feast of Fun Deserves Top Honors Again – Please Vote!
It is that time of year where the most authentic kind of grass root voting is going on right now on the the Internet for the 2009 Podcast Awards. There are several categories ranging from Overall People’s Choice to Best Technology and Science Award.
Nominated again this year is my favorite podcast, The Feast of Fun. They have won the award in the category for Best GLBT Podcast three years in a row now. They are nominated in two categories this year for People’s Choice for Best Overall Podcast and in the Best GLBT Podcast category also. They deserve the double win this year.
Yes, they are a GLBT themed show, but they are also a model of what a successful independent podcast entertainment program can look like from home grown start to an international entertainment internet presence.
What is brilliant about the Feast of Fun or FOF is that its proprietors, Fausto Fernos and Marc Felion, have built it up on donations and very limited advertising. This is truly a homegrown operation which personifies the opportunities on the Internet offered to the common man who is willing to put in the time , energy and commitment.
They have been able to produce almost daily podcasts attracting not only GLBT personalities but Hollywood celebrities and political notables. They are current in breaking news and have their unique form of activism that speaks to the regular Joe and Sally of the GLBT community.
I truly believe that as time moves on, they will be recognized as one of the major influential voices of the GLBT community in this century. These guys from Chicago have tapped into what makes the community tick!
This is significant in a time where major GLBT media sources have been failing, the FOF has been thriving with its unique blend of entertainment, humor and current news reporting. Fernos and Felion have always been ahead of the trends capitalizing on the Internet with the now Obama-branded grassroots fund raising and outreach method to the masses, long before the President made it his own.
The FOF has been one of the most popular comedy podcasts on iTunes. I used to commute to work on the train long distance and it was a popular staple of mine to listen to it every morning. I found myself laughing out loud. They are funny, entertaining and edgy podcasts.
Through the FOF I discovered musicians, comedians, causes, shows, and people I would have never heard of or cared about. I have blogged about several of them and made contact with these people. It has been an amazing experience.
That is the genius of FOF. They really had the spirit of Social Media before that phrase was coined. They built a community around their show. They reached out not only in all the normal electronic media forms but by doing “Meet and Greets” throughout the nation.
They developed one of the most active community forums on the Internet. Their video postings brought us into their lives. I mean most fans without really knowing them, feel like Mark and Fausto are their best friends.
They raise money by selling their exclusive tee shirts that they update from time to time like an exclusive funky fashion line. They really keep things fun!
I can quote a bunch of stats and list all their shows,however, I suggest that you go to their site and listen to their podcasts. all the stats and information is found there. You will be sold on them. I do not care if you are gay or straight or whatever. It is absolutely FREE, too.
So for anyone who really wants to know what the ideal podcast should be like now matter what the theme or subject matter is should study and learn more about the Feast of Fun! They are the benchmark of podcast excellence. No one else comes close.
Once you listen to them, please vote for them each day on the two categories until the end of the month.
In the meanwhile, treat yourself to a daily dose of the Feast of Fun!

So You Think You Can Dance Season 6 – Brings It On!
Every season, So You Think You Can Dance, continues to up its game, as one of the most exciting talent competitions on TV today. Season 6 especially has brought competitors from diverse dance traditions and seen them grow exponentially when challenged with other types of dance forms outside their comfort zone.
The choreography presented this season has been at the top of the game. Some standouts for me include the surprise underdog Ashleigh Di Lello , her husband Ryan Di Lello, Ellenore Scott, Legacy Perez, Nathan Trasoras, Russell Ferguson, Jacob Karr, and Mollee Gray.
There is no faking talent on this show and I think that is why it is why it is so appealing. Dance is celebrated and America is in love with it.
Here are some of my favorite routines that were performed during the show.

Let’s Fall in Love Again Croons Jason Castro
Jason Castro
Former American Idol, Jason Castro, recently released a single, called Let’s Fall in Love Again that is optimistic and pretty good. This is a good sign for his soon to be released album. It showcases a talent in the singer that did not quite shine on the popular singing talent show. Looks like another Idol success story.

November 20th – Transgender Remembrance Day
Within the LGBT rights movement is the Transgender community. This is often the group that probably has the toughest obstacles on the road to equality issues than any demographic in across LGBT peoples.
They face both prejudices outside the community and even within the community. Some of those prejudices have resulted in violent and murderous hate crimes.
On November 20th, Transgender Remembrance Day, efforts will be made to remember those who were victims of such heinous crimes. It also is a time for our society to reflect on the social justices mechanisms and enforcement that needs to to be put in place ( Thank goodness for the Federal Law against Hate Crimes that was finally passed and signed into law), so that these individuals can realized full equality without fear of death.
The number of Transgender Deaths has doubled within one year. As of Oct 22 2009 there has been 95 deaths calculated the year year before there were 47.-YOU TUBE

The Ultimate Motivation Poster According to My Friend Ryan
Ryan P. is someone I have known since the days I have lived in Utah. He is not a native Utahn but acts and looks like one. He is a good friend who actually saw me during the period of my coming out days. We have a mutual friend of ours named Ben. Ben and I were coming out at the same time. Ryan is straight and gay friendly. I think my friend Ben kind of had a crush on Ryan but the two became more good friends like Laverne and Shirley.
Ryan loves to make those kind of straight guy jokes around gay guys that remind you of 15 year old boys in a locker room. He loves women especially Asian women. He has this wonderful girlfriend ( Gawd knows how she has stood him all these years). She must have trained him well to take out the trash and mow the lawn. It is hard to get good help these days.
As he ages he still tries to leverage his looks to get his way. He is a smart guy and I am glad that he has gotten less lazy over the years ( I think). He needs to make his intelligence an advantage, because lacking any kind of age delaying genetic Latino or African American blood in his make up, he is destined to wrinkle up fast ( It is already happening).
He posted this motivational poster below which features the Optimist, Pessimist and Student. The illustration is in line with his sense of humor.
This poster tells me something about Ryan:
- He is motivated with anything that has to do with urination
- He loves Penis tricks
- Never have him use your restroom
- His aim is bad
He asked me to blog about this poster on Facebook. Ryan, never say I never did anything for you.
