Fumble no more! Discrete yet stylish, The Condom Holder designed by fashion designer Jeffrey Banks is the perfect accessory. Made of reflective fabric, the case holds a dozen condoms with a reflective strip for easy access. Made of PVC.

Hot daddy at midland Nike Outlet. Rows of chrome ridden cars reflect the heat as hell rises off the blacktop parking lot. The Nike store is extraordinarily cool, weary shoppers are in rabid purchase mode. Very hot 6ft. 2 ex-college football jock peruses shoe bins with skinny son. Giant tree trunk legs and matching upper body musculature round out tan, stubble ridden face. Joyously he helps son out with just the right fit, excited, he helps with purchases for the upcoming school year. The hot man is bulge ridden, perfect and natural in a midwestern, lacking details sort of way. Short shorts and a smile-he doesn't know he is beautiful and that makes him even more beautiful.

Soundtrack For Today
Fuck The Pain Away
Peaches (from Teaches of Peaches)
Why Don't We Dissappear
Gonzales (from Gonzales Uber Alles)
Burning Flies/Festival 95/Columbo's Car
(Looper, bassist Stuart David from Belle and Sebastian)
Tonight a special LIVE! viewing of Detroit's underground indy daarlings 'White Stripes'. Yea, I'm looking forward to it, but just don't tell anybody, cause that ain't cool.

"Mies forces you in. You have to go deeper. You might think this austere strength, this ugly beauty, is terribly severe. It is, and yet all the more beauty in it." Less is still more, not so a bore! Access now.

Canicula res dies said the Romans, or dog days of summer. Sirius the infamous dog star of astrology shines the brightest during the period of July 3 to August 11. Quit wilting and allow Ovid to be your guide to a hospitable activity. Refresh with that soothing potion of cooling aromatics known as the mint julep, a restorative and invigorating panacea for all the evils of climate. Combine 2 cups of sugar to two cups of boiling hot water, stir to dissolve the sugar. Turn off the heat and drop in about 8 sprigs of fresh mint leaves, to infuse the mixture, cover and allow to cool. Fill your julep glass with ice and add about one tablespoon of the mint syrup, and a generous amount of Kentucky bourbon, I said Kentucky damn it. Stir rapidly and garnish with a sprig of fresh mint.

(1x) 'New York City is the hottest place/ For a honeymoon in a hotel room/ New York City is my favorite place/ 'Cause I know so many people with a golden face'...ms. nunsexmonkrock. I don't mind that you're switching DNA w /her. The heat is forcing hot boys to underground. camo here, camo there and bitable butts are everywhere. Down there, your thinking becomes positively luminous, silver cars go whizzing by as sleek hair is disturbed by the wind. I smile and think of danger and talent exploding. Suddenly and without cause a tall black man with a boom box passes: Clap your hands everybody/ If you got what it takes/ 'Cause I'm Kurtis Blow/ and I want you to know/ That these are the breaks.

Honey, pick me up some Mot�in and some Pork �inds at Walgreens. 'If I ruled the world I would outlaw flip flops, especially on grown men' he said. 'Turn that damn thing off for Chrissts Sakes!' 'I can't!' I'm Watching Neil Simon's 'The Goodbye Girl', it's so very 77, so very very 1977. Dear Marsha Mason would you stop running around in crisis mode. So very very Ann Romano so very 'One Day At a Time' So Bonnie Franklin Battle of the Network Stars, 'Damn it! Juullieee Baaarrbra!' Come on back to Indianapolis Carbie Booper Carbie Booper. Darling, hand me the Mot�in, I feel a sicky headache coming on.

Mothers of America
Let your kids go to the movies!
get them out of the house so they don't know what your up to
it's true that fresh air is good for the body
but what about the soul
that grows in darkness, imbossed by silvery images...
Frank O' Hara
It's always better in black and white, missing neon signs flickering with the promise of air-conditioning-Cool-off is no longer a catch phrase, no longer an inticement to weary overheated people. And what about this business of living, life unscripted. Petulant, alternately joyful Frank O'Hara lives on to disarm me: 'oh god its wonderful / to get out of bed / and, drink too much coffee / and smoke too many cigarettes / and love you so much.'

Busy, scorching hot weekend, I don't know, perhaps it's the heat that is causing me to rethink some battle plans for the future. As an artist, blah blah blah, I would quit reading right here, if I were you...okay you had your chance, I would normally stay 'open' to things, you know, so I wouldn't miss anything and ummm isn't that the way artist's are supposed to act. Experience, take it all in, LIVE! Seriously, I realize that my philosophy, which I am ashamed to say, I touted rather egotistically, is to put it bluntly UTTER BULLSHIT. I'm thinking now, okay, cut the crap, I only have so much time, and why should I spend my time engaging in work/ or other activities I really dislike. Look, I'm not searching, I'm finding, and through it all, I realize, I have very definite ideas. Fuck, I'm cranky today. Reading a really ass kicking novel titled 'Perv- A Love Story' by Jerry Stahl. Chock full o' juvenile delinquents, tacky sex, lots of drugs, and a horrifying cast of misfit parents and predatory adults, set in Pittsburgh. Darkest of the dark comedies, quick quirky and fantastic read so far. If you are so inclined, read from Tinhouse, Stahl is interviewed by Ann Magnuson.

Posted a new playlist for August. Can recommend the new Avalanches cd, hilarious fun sample heavy party album full of lively songs. If you are parking on the dance floor then you need to pick up Danny Rampling's 'Love Groove Dance Party' for that special disco touch. Out to lunch, lethargy got you down? Bored and depressed? Pick up Iggy Pop and James Williamson's 'Kill City', a moody masterpiece of unused Stooges songs. Cheery, now smile damnit!

Men for Muscle take their vitamins. Get their pizza with double the sauce and light cheese. And if you must eat a Big Mac, remember at least to rinse it down with lots of water. Find out why, and check out 20 head starts to a healthier diet.

ETC. office stimulator doubles as interface and plaything. Timely events occur as virtual workers go about their business, or log in at night and mix it up with the janitor. A great example of Flash and shockwave enhancement.
