Not At Marcellas
Why aren't there performances at Marcella's like tihs with back up dancers and what not..that would be fun. Though Marcellas' performances do occasionally involve a full sub being flung aroudn with lettuce everywhere which is fun too........Here's a little something from my 2 favorite RuPaul drag race contestants..









she even has a music video

My Favorite Product -
So me and my mom are doing an extensive home versio nof Clean House minus the Nicey host and home make over and television celebritiness of it. We are both pack rats and decided we have to rid ourselves of a lot of stuff. It clicked for my mom after she realized we had so much stuff of my grandmas still at her house and she passed away 3 years ago. So needless to say it has been crazy going through and gettin rid of stuff, literally i would say we have about at leat 1,000 greeting cards to get rid of (some charities take them and reuse the front part, i am not sure they realize how many they are going to get, i think it will be a lifteie supply)! My mom just threw out our baby crib (the width of the bars are illegal now cuz they are too far apart and dangerous). I finally parted with my collectio nof paper bracelets they put on your wrist to prove you are 21 (each with the event and date listed on the back) and so on and so forth but we came across this gem of a product...

we bought it for my aunt and uncle as a gag one year and it has been passed around my family every since. So you think what is so funny about a doughnut express?.....

image

Well what is so funny is that NOWHERE ON THE BOX OR DIRECTIONS does it include using the doughnut express. the instructions very nicely give e you directions on how to make a donught by like makuing dough and rolling it out and cutting it and stuffing it and stuff. NO PART inside or out involves the doughnut express. It is so hilairous to me! I love it!!! Like it tells you how to make things wihtout using their product. No step involves batter dropping or any express doughnut machine! I love it, i don't think i can part with this one...


image

I am having a garage sale in the summer at (e:libertad)'s house to get rid of a lot of this stuff, there will be plenty of gems like the Highschool Musical Mystery Date game unopened, a safari hat, a motorized tie rack, abou 12 differetn radios that look like cellphones, and that's just the beginning!!!!

I'll leave you with this

Lately I"ve been reading my old journals for like the month it is for the last 8 years to see what I was doing around this same time of year over the years. And I just read Tiny's comment
paul - 03/03/12 00:51
What made you ask that here today?
mike - 03/03/12 00:46
are unicorns not real?
james - 03/19/09 23:03
Is that carbonated Jack?
heidi - 03/19/09 20:46
Maybe a silent auction at (e:matthew)'s birthday party?
tinypliny - 03/19/09 18:21
The "As seen on TV" brands are all such frauds. I think putting "as seen on TV" translates to "Warning. This product is a bogus. Meant only for people who believe in unicorns."
tinypliny - 03/19/09 18:19
LOL - What is it for then? Does it have that instrument that is on the cover or does it just have doughnut flour inside?

ALso, do you have an old but functional stereo receiver for cheap? I really want bookshelf speakers for my computer but they need stereo receivers and I can't find cheap good ones. The ones they make nowadays are ultimate pieces of garbage. I used to have many of these lying around at home but alas, I can't find any at garage sales around here.

When is this sale? Would it be on this Sunday?

RuPaul's Drag Race- Sashay Away
So I love the new reality show RuPaul's Drag Race on Logo. It is like sorta America's Next Top Modelish but with Drag Queens and lesser prizes! Putting drag queens in a reality show is a great idea and i love that at the end of each episode the lowest two girls have to "LIP SYNCH FOR THEIR LIFE!" , it is quite entertaining. I think they could have maybe found some little more interesting people but it is still really good. They all have very different styles and it also like you don't necessarily know who will get voted off each week. Sometimes it is surprising!

You know its good because it is one of only very few shows that both me and (e:libertad) like. We generally like different kinds of shows but we both love this one which is nice. Unfortunately it is on on Mondays, and so he and his roommate Steve get to watch it on Mondays when it airs and i have to watch it on dvr later in the week cuz i work all day mondays. I am so jealous of them watching it! It stinks that we don't get to watch it together since we both like it. I hate waiting all week , knowing they already know what happened and i don't. But if any of you get Logo you should check it out or rent it on dvd when it comes out....i think it is almost the finale

theecarey - 03/17/09 18:22
SORRY!! I totally thought that after I made the comment of who was booted off recently, but then I remember that (e:mike) said it appeared to be the finale, or getting close to? I hope I didn't ruin anything. There is a little extra interesting nugget of how it happened to Shannel if you guys didn't see it that I haven't divulged!
libertad - 03/17/09 08:07
Great tiny, you ruined it for everyone! JK. Don't worry mike I was so exhausted last night that I just ended up going to bed 1/4 of the way through. I will tell you that nobody gets sashayed away though.
theecarey - 03/17/09 07:53
(e:tinypliny), that is RuPaul.

(e:mike), this is hilarious that you mention RuPaul's Drag Race. I did not know it existed until last week. I couldn't sleep, I flipped through the channels and found a marathon of this show. I watched several 'ladies' 'sashay away'. I think Shannel had just been ousted from the race, which left, Rebecca Glasscock (haha, Nina Flowers and Bebe. The challenges are entertaining and RuPaul still has it. I have to somehow stay tuned now.
tinypliny - 03/16/09 22:43
So who is the person in the photo?

e:Paul's Circumcision
Just thought I would try and get a little of the attention over here with my title. My mom was juts going thorugh old bills and stuff and found paul's circumcision bill....guess how much it cost in 1977...........




wait for it.....



FIVE DOLLARS! yeah that's it , five dollars! How insane, i cna't even get like a wendy's meal for five dollars let alone a circumcision!
tinypliny - 03/16/09 22:40
The real question that NO ONE asked is just how much does a circumcision cost today??!
leetee - 03/07/09 10:38
ha ha ha.... now when i hear the 5 dollar foot long jingle i will think of Paul's missing foreskin....
mk - 03/06/09 20:25
Hahaha that's crazy
metalpeter - 03/05/09 17:22
You can eat for $5 at Wendy's try the Dollar Menu, best dollar menu of all the places that have one by the way. Go to Subway and get a footlong for $5. Quiznos if you can find one around here is supposed to have(d) some good deals for about the same price.
hodown - 03/05/09 10:24
Only Maria would keep that for 30 years.
james - 03/05/09 09:30
Was the receipt saved so she could write it off on her taxes?

Talk about economic stimulus. I might blow!
jim - 03/05/09 09:00
Down with MGM!
drew - 03/05/09 08:40
I'd probably spend my $5000 at Wendy's.
paul - 03/04/09 23:58
OMFG, I would pay like $5000 to have it back.

Giving Up Bacon
That's right! You heard it here first, i am giving up bacon for lent. Now bacon may seem like something easy to give up cuz how often oculd someone really eat bacon? But i find prolly on average i eat it at least once a day since some days it is in every mael i eat. I really don' tknow if i will be able to do it. What is a chicken finger sub without bacon? What is a hamburger without bacon? What is a candy bar without bacon? We'll see how it goes, i guess lent is only 40 days anywya. IN the past whateveri gave up for lent i kinda got over and was not so obseesed iwth afterwards, my arteries are hoping the same ting happens with bacon
'

now ireally feel the need to go out and party tonight for mardi gras, and mourn the passing of my bacon days!
tinypliny - 03/16/09 22:38
How are you doing? I failed COMPLETELY and I am actually glad about it. :D
libertad - 02/25/09 16:22
Oh too bad, cause I was just about to make this...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UR3kfP1IQHk
hodown - 02/25/09 14:28

That's Soul Sausage. It's actually pretty good.
joshua - 02/25/09 14:09
What is soul sausage?
businesscheese - 02/25/09 13:51
I had heard that about you, Lilho.
Now it's confirmed.
lilho - 02/25/09 13:42
i could give up bacon for a while...as long as i can still have sausage. wait, that sounds weird. i really do love sausage though... chorizo, italian, polish, soul sausage...mmmmm!
businesscheese - 02/25/09 13:05
I find this disturbing. I don't know why anyone would ever voluntarily deprive themselves of bacon.
Mayo - sure, fried stuff - see ya later, chocolate - eh alright. BUT BACON?!!!!!!!!
hodown - 02/25/09 09:34
3 things:

1. Chicken finger sub with bacon?! Genius.
2. Someone at my work made bacon infused vodka. Not as good as you'd think.
3. I thought you were giving up bacon for good and I was worried. Glad it's only for lent!
mk - 02/24/09 22:27
Haha I've actually never heard of bacon on a chicken finger sub...but I'm sure it would be delicious. Actually I'm so impressed with your choice that I think I will give up my bacon equivalent...no Raisinets for 40 days!!!! I decided it tonight when an entire bag spilled in my purse. It was a sign from the heavens that Raisinets should be out of my life. I don't know if I can make it...

carolinian - 02/24/09 22:24
If there's a bourbon chicken, a vodka bacon using the other white meat is probably not far fetched. I gave up bacon/pork for life and managed to survive; just barely, though, as won ton soup was like my most favorite food ever and I had to give that up.
janelle - 02/24/09 20:31
Please invite me over to your home after you've made that lovely concoction of bacon and vodka. Puhlease... *salivate*
james - 02/24/09 19:36
You should celebrate with bacon infused vodka (which I am totally going to make).

:::link:::
janelle - 02/24/09 19:21
Mhhh... bacon. I totally should indulge in bacon before lent starts. And then underindulge in all food items after lent starts.
