It’s time for the 6th Annual Labor Day Pool Party at the Blue Moon Resort!

There will be hot go-go boys and a full bar. Clothing is optional. It’s a terrific event, lots of fun. Ace is away touring Europe but Greg is available if you need a date!

HBO is considering giving sex-advice columnist Dan Savage his own TV show – how cool is that? We love Dan. He’s a hoot. The pilot is being produced now. Fingers crossed! There’s more at Salon:

‘The syndicated sex columnist writes that his series, which would also be titled “Savage Love,” “will focus on current events and cultural trends with sex as the filter.” And his approach to the show seem specially designed to fill the TV sex programming void: “I’m hoping to bring a new kind of conversation to TV about sex — an honest conversation, one that’s informed without being (too) wonky, funny without being (too) cruel, sexy without being (too) cheesy. Basically, my sex advice column — but on the teevee!”‘

And here’s a video of when Dan Savage offered to be Sarah Palin’s gay friend.

Weeds is one of our favorite shows. We love Mary Louise Parker.

And Mary Louise would really, REALLY, love to win another Emmy:

Here is a very entertaining video about how gays are being represented in TV commercials these days.

The annual AFAN Black & White Party is coming August 22. It’s poolside at the Hard Rock Hotel. Tickets are $35. Be there!

And be sure to admire the new window display at Get Booked.

Greg took some photos of lightening from his back yard a while ago. He was very pleased with the result, but I’m afraid it cannot quite measure up to this spectacular display seen from a Nebraska truck stop:

The Blue Moon Resort offers those who are not staying overnight at the hotel an opportunity to enjoy the resort features and a chance to mingle with the crowd.

A Blue Moon Day Pass gives you access to our entire facility (with the exception of a hotel room…unless invited) from 7:00 AM until 8:00 PM for only $25. Lockers are provided on a space available basis should you need one.

The local Affirmation chapter (Gay and Lesbian Mormons) is hosting a special get together on Monday, July 20, 2009. They have invited everyone who wants to participate.

The event is the Cashetta Show “Magic is a Drag” at the Harmon Theatre. Cashetta is offering a special offer to Affirmation invitees/attendees: $15 and that includes a wrist band for unlimited drinks. Here is the catch, to get this special deal, simply ask the person at the box office: “Is this where i can get my FREE Book of Mormon?” The person at the box office will answer, “No, but i can offer you this $15 wrist band for unlimited drinks during this show.” Simply pay your $15 and join the fun.

The show is at 7pm at the Harmon Theatre. The theatre is at the Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood on the strip. The theatre is at the Harmon and Las Vegas Boulevard corner. This should be great fun. As you might realize, this event is open to those 21 and older.

If you can make it, it will be great to see you there too. And also FYI – don’t let the ‘Mormon” thing throw you off – this is the gay Mormons and i’ve seen how they can drink and party – you’ll fit right in!!!

Public Service Announcements of the future. Hilarious

An airline in New Zealand has figured out how to get passengers to watch those safety videos that nobody anywhere ever watches.

Everybody in the safety video is naked, covered only in body paint.

Watch and learn (as it’s probably the only safety video you ever will pay attention to).

HBO has a new comedy called Hung, about a teacher with a gigantic schlong who becomes a straight male escort to make ends meet. It seems to be well worth a look.
