So I’m walking around Charlie’s picking up all the BINGO cards and I see a business card on the ground. I, of course, pick it up. On the back are some nonsensical scribbles I thought you’d all like.

The website www.TMZ.com is doing an awesome job covering the death of Michael Jackson. Go there for the latest.
Such a sad, sad rainy day.
Here’s a brief recap:
Will.I.Am of the Black Eyed Peas and Perez Hilton have a little altercation cat fight outside an awards show. The heated exchange boiled over when Perez was apparently hit by The Black Eyed Peas manager, Liborio “Polo” Molina. This is when Perez went on the verbal attack calling Will.I.Am a “faggot.”
Perez Hilton’s made this initial remark on his site and to the media:
“And that is when I made the split-second decision – that I was gonna say what I thought was the worst possible thing that thug [will.i.am] would ever want to hear. As I was standing my ground – without being violent or physical which I would never do – I told him – and you know what? I don’t need to respect you and you’re a f**. You’re gay and stop being such a f***ot.”
GLAAD demanded an apology. (Surprise, surprise.)
Perez later released the following statement:
“People make mistakes. I have made many in my life, but this past week I have made more than I can count on one hand.
I am sorry. And I mean it. No one is forcing me to write this. I am not feeling pressured to say this. I am speaking out because I realize that the last few days have been more hurtful to me – and many others – than the repeated blows I suffered to my head in Toronto this past weekend.
I have been filled with incredible sadness and regret.
I am sorry that any good work I have done for promoting equality may be tainted by me reclaiming a hurtful word – that’s been personally used against me and the gay community – to hurt someone that was verbally attacking me. It was stupid.
Apologizing for me is not easy. Writing this was not easy. Life is not easy. But everything happens for a reason and I will take away a lot of valuable lessons from this experience.
Violence is never the answer. Never.
Victims should not be mocked.
The “F” word will never be uttered from my lips again. Just as others use the “N” word to insult and hurt – or as part of their everyday speech – I challenge them to remove it from their vocabulary as well.
Hindsight is always 20/20, they say. I should have been the bigger man and walked away from an unfortunate situation. Instead, I chose – in a very misguided way – to stand up for myself and only made things worse by how I – under pressure, anger and extreme emotion – handled the situation.
I am sorry.
I am NOT apologizing to GLAAD. I could care less about them, my former employers.
I am apologizing to the gay community, to anyone who was hurt by my choice of words, and to all the people who have ever emailed me to thank me for all that I have done to fight for gay rights over the last few years.
I have reached out to Isaiah Washington, someone I incorrectly labeled a homophobe in the past, despite his own public statements that he was not.
I will be donating any money collected from my lawsuit against Polo Molina, road manager for the Black Eyed Peas, to the Matthew Shepard Foundation.
And I will continue to speak out for equality and support the great work done by LGBT organizations, such as LAMBDA Legal and HRC.
Sincerely, Perez”
In response, GLAAD is still not happy (again- surprise, surprise.) And The Matthew Shepard Foundation released the following statement:
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Thursday, June 25, 2009
303.830.7400 x10STATEMENT FROM MATTHEW SHEPARD FOUNDATION REGARDING PEREZHILTON.COM
The Matthew Shepard Foundation was surprised to learn this morning via media reports that blogger Perez Hilton (Mario Lavandeira) has announced he plans to donate, to our organization, the proceeds of a lawsuit he is contesting over an altercation which has been widely reported in recent days.
We had no advance notice or contact from Mr. Hilton or his
representatives regarding this proposal, nor any communication since he posted this plan to his website.We do not know the details of the lawsuit, whether it has been filed, the nature of his claims or the likely outcome. But because the lawsuit presumably involves the physical attack prompted by Mr. Hilton’s admitted use of an anti-gay slur, the Foundation will be unable to accept any funds obtained in such a manner.
We very much appreciate the generosity of the offer to support our continuing work to memorialize Matthew through activism in defense of sexual minorities and in favor of understanding, compassion, and acceptance. But because so much of our work involves education to reduce the use of hateful language against gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered persons, or those so perceived, it would be inappropriate for us to benefit financially from circumstances in which such a verbal attack was involved.
While we applaud Mr. Hilton’s apology to the LGBT community and their loved ones for his use of such a slur, we also feel compelled to point out that use of epithets can often lead to physical violence, as it appears it may have in this case, and that the Matthew Shepard Foundation has worked for more than 10 years to bring to people’s attention the consequences of hateful or intolerant language.

Hhmm, I guess the Matthew Shepard Foundation is doing well in a tough economy and doesn’t need/want the potential funding that Perez could generate in winning his case. Whatever.
For the record, I reserve the right to use the term/word ‘faggot.’ As gays I believe we’ve earned that right; this includes fellow ‘fag’ Perez Hilton.
Michael Jackson has suffered a fatal heart attack, passing away at 50 years old. Children everywhere are now safe.
R.I.P.
This loss hits Hollywood just hours after actress Farrah Fawcett lost her battle with cancer, and Ed McMahon’s death just two days ago. 
Well gays, the good news is your face paint won’t melt this weekend because of the heat, but your product maybe ruined because of the rain.
Oh, and be sure to use your plastic and leather cock rings. You wouldn’t want your metal ones attracting any lightening.
OK kids, so the second round of RuPual’s DragRace online competition began in the wee hours of the morning today. And local queen Ginger Sexton needs your help. Each racer started at zero again!
So go over to RuPaul’s site and cast a vote for Denver’s very own Spice! And don’t forget to do it every day for the next six days!
The Blackeye Peas “I gotta feeling” will be the song for summer 2009!
My friend DJ Chaotic told me about this song a few weeks ago. He said it’d be the song of the summer. And I think he’s right. It’s currently No. 1 on iTunes and the music video has already had more than 1 million hits on YouTube.
Enjoy. And happy Pride every one.

Miss California Carrie Prejean has been replaced with a prettier, less hateful version. Homosexuals around the world can now rejoice.
Voting for Rupaul’s next Drag Race is on. . . and has been. Remember how great it was to have one of our own on national tv? Well then, you’d better start voting and remember to vote everyday thereafter! Denver’s own Ginger Sexton is running and with just 12 days until the end of round 1, she is way behind on the leader board. If voting were to end today she would place 14th – and that’s just not right!
Okay peeps, you know your mission and I want all of you to accept it. GO NOW AND VOTE FOR GINGER HERE!
Oh – and be sure to check out www.gingersexton.com
Nina Flowers is HOT as reported by the Denver Post here.
PS: The two comments on this post have nothing to do with the above, the person who commented was meaning to comment on the post below.
Last week I received an email from The GLBT Center of Colorado regarding Dale Kershner and a company called Power Sharp Advertising AKA: GLBT Yellow Pages AKA: Gay Friendly Yellow Pages. According to what The Center believes to be true, this guy has been going around selling ad space in this publication trying to promote it as a Pridefest sponsor and/or participant.
(We all know, much to my own dismay that Outfront is the only publication allowed to be a Pridefest sponsor, but that’s a whole other story.)
Anyhow, I was curious if the Center was just over-reacting – or if this guy, Dale Kershner was indeed trying to scam businesses of the gay community. So I did some digging and thus far have been able to come up with this:
Somebody has created a website dedicated to the scams of Dale Kershner here.
And apparently he has joined (or was just visiting) the Denver Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce, because in the organizations May 2009 newsletter, Dale Kershner is pictured here attending an April Luncheon. (On page 7)
And this.
And The GLBT Yellow Pages media kit, which clearly states that they WILL be distributing 50,000 copies or 60,000 copies (depending on which page you read) at Pridefest. We know this to be FALSE as they have not purchased a booth at Pridefest, nor are they a participant/sponsor in any manner.
What I found interesting though is that I don’t see Dale Kershner’s name on the Power Sharp Company website anywhere???
Ok, let’s assume Power Sharp Advertising is a legitimate new gay business in Colorado who is launching a new rag.
But then I found this.
It’s all very confusing.
IN AN ABSOLUT WORLD, TRUE TASTE COMES NATURALLY
And with a Touch of the Tropics
World’s Most Iconic Vodka Introduces its First Tropical Flavor ABSOLUT® MANGO
NEW YORK – ABSOLUT® VODKA invites consumers to indulge their five senses as the sweet smell, savory taste and exotic kick of the “king of fruits” explodes with the debut of ABSOLUT® MANGO. The world’s most iconic vodka introduces its tenth flavor, adding a splash of the tropics to the brand’s portfolio. Aromatic and juicy with a pronounced and genuine character of ripened mango, the taste is fruity and full-bodied. And, like all ABSOLUT flavors, ABSOLUT MANGO is made from all-natural ingredients and contains no sugar and no added preservatives.
“ABSOLUT MANGO has done exceptionally well in both the South American market and at Global Travel Retail, and we are eager to replicate that success in the U.S. market, as we offer bartenders and consumers the true taste of mango in their cocktails,” said Ian Crystal, Brand Director of ABSOLUT VODKA. “ABSOLUT revolutionized the flavored vodka market in the mid-1980s and we continue to set the standard with exciting new flavors that have strong global appeal.”
The most popular fruit in the world and a staple in Asian and Latin diets, mangos bring a touch of the tropics to decadent dishes and desserts. Now, bar, restaurant and nightclub patrons can experience the true taste of mango in a variety of signature cocktails, such as the ABSOLUT MANGO FIZZ, the ABSOLUT MANGO SPICE and the SAGE LADY.
World famous for its iconic bottle, the new ABSOLUT MANGO packaging reinforces its strong heritage in the field of design. The bottle design is artistic and asymmetrical, with a strong visual concept. It has more transparent glass than previous flavors and the decoration consists of mango fruit contours gathered in groups around the bottle. The colors – shades of green, red and yellow combined – are chosen to reflect all characteristics of the fruit and will stand out on back bars and add pizzazz when entertaining at home.
ABSOLUT MANGO Signature Cocktail Recipes
ABSOLUT MANGO FIZZ - 1 Part ABSOLUT MANGO, 2 Parts Lemon-Lime Soda, Pour over ice and garnish with a lime.
ABSOLUT MANGO SPICE – 1 ½ Parts ABSOLUT MANGO, 1 Part Mango Nectar, 2 Slices Jalapeno, ½ Part Agave Syrup, ¾ Fresh Lime, Dash Orange Bitters — Muddle jalapeno, agave syrup and mango nectar.
