Guilty Pleasures?!?!?


I have two. I one almost over and the other is about to start.

First is the show, So You Think You Can Dance. I have been watching this show since about the 2nd week of auditions and even though I might have missed an episode or two in there I have not missed it since they had the too 14 at least, maybe even the top 20.

But I am really here to gush on about my favorite, Travis Wall. I am so hoping he wins it all. He is the youngest of the final four and the most technically correct of all the dancers that are left. And at the end of last weeks voting show the judges all agreed that Travis just stole the whole 'Sexyback' number that the final four danced. Wade Robeson was the choreographer. Great number, I have it on DVR and have watched it at least 10 times.

Go TRAVIS.


Second is the new movie coming out the 1st of September called, Crank.As I have mentioned before on here I have a big thing for Jason Stratham. Since I first saw him in The Transporter then The Italian Job, Cellular and on to The Transporter 2.

This is only a guilty pleasure because this man is just incredible. I don't think the US has an action hero like him. Those darn Europeans know how to do the action. This guy rocks. Idea of the move is basically the movie Speed but in Jason's body. Chev, Jason's character has been injected with a poison that will kill him if his adrenaline levels drop below a certain point. Will be a pleasure to watch him tear up the screen and probably the city he is running around in to find the antidote and his potential killers.

Remember Last Friday Night.....


That sudden rain storm that broke out for a long time around 7pm or so.
Well, I found this picture today over on Flicker, seems like someone just sent it in, it had no user name behind it.

Oh, God, whatever, just look at the pic from inside the C/E train tracks at Penn Station.

Been Meaning to Add This Quote:

"I wish people still swooned, don't you?"

Mrs Madrigal talking to Mother Mucca in the book, "More Tales of the City" by Armistead Maupin.

I have to say I think swooning is a great thing and I know I do it quite often, maybe not visibly, but I do.

Feeling A Change Coming On

So I just got home after a nice relaxing day of volleyball in Central Park. Afterwards five of us went out to eat alot of food at Jackson Hole just up the street from my house. Ariel, Marjon, a little guy I just love but whose name excapes me at the moment and Big Bryan. Not big in the bad sense, just tall and a really sweet guy. Love seeing him, hardly get to and he was kicking ass in the park all weekend long.

I have to say that this is the second weekend I have gone out to eat with Ariel and Marjon, they know I use just go home and grab something to eat. They always say come on because we are usually just a couple of blocks from my house since we are on the Eastside so why not. Why not indeed.

Last week was just fun as was tonight.

So I think from now on I will be trying to really get back in touch and start really hanging out with friends and going out again. Since I move up here a year and a half ago I kind of stopped going out. Needs to change.

So since I just got a haircut last week I thought when you have a change in your life, even a small one like this, you need to do something to cement it. So I decided to change the look of the site. Not a big thing but all I have to really change right now.

Well, I could say what I am really thinking when someone asks me, "What am I thinking?" but I am a little too smart/shy to really say. LOL. Okay, maybe not shy, but smart enough to keep my mouth shut for the most part.

Oh yeah....


I took this picture from my window and stitched it together. You can see exactly how clear it is out there the last couple of days.


Then I went up to the roof and took a whole city wide photo and stitched that together too. Harder task but was only doing it for fun so please forgive any imperfections.

Click on both pics to get a larger view, I think.

See, Bryan.............


I may only have put up two posts but I am starting to get it going again.

I have about 4 more posts coming but now I need to run and get some new shorts and flip flops, maybe Havaianas, I have been dying for something more colorful.

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.
You can't beat the weather in NYC this past week. Loving it.
