Las Vegas Pride | 8 1/2 Into the Night
After seeing the RentBoys go past in the Los Vegas Pride Parade we only hung around for a little bit longer. But after five minutes I was like "Let's go!" The chill of the desert night was calling our names to come and play.
It the three of us hauled it to 8 1/2 (don't you just love the name)/ Piranha Nightclub located on the "Fruit Loop" which is the gay area of Las Vegas. The RentBoys were supoosed to join us, but at the last minute decided to hit up Krave because they gave them a VIP booth, and since I had already paid $60 to get into 8 1/2, we decided to stay and make the most of it. It sucked that we weren't able to hang out with the boys, but Kyle and his friend Josh met up with us later in the night.
The place featured two dance floors; one r&b/hip-hop, the other dance music. We all spent the night going back and forth between the two whenever we got bored of the music. The night turned out to be amazing fun. The music was hot and my company was enjoyable so it was definately the perfect recipe for a fun night out. The loved that the two dance floors had totally diffrent moods and atmosphere. The hip-hop side was dark and had a 9' ceiling. The vibe was dark and intimate.
The dance music space was separated by a walkway which featured a large piranha filled aquarium archway. The space was comparatively brightly lit with high ceilings. The columns that flanked the raised platform in the center of the space lit up from within, which was an interesting idea, but the execution of the details were sloppy.
Sometime in the night I did however manage to pick up an unwanted stalker while trying to just have fun on the dance floor. Now, I'm not very good at sending or receiving social signals when it comes the courtship, but I tried my hardest to make it clear that I was not interested and wanted him to go away. I just half-heartedly smiled back as he kept throwing me compliments hoping that I could take the bait. Mark and Joseph tried saving me, but the guy would not go away. I think me trying to be polite to him mixed up some of the rejection signals I was sending.
But I thought that he would get a clue when I said I was going out to smoke and quickly walked away that he would get the idea. But while I was walking with Mark and Joseph to the other dance floor I had just pulled out a cig when out of nowhere a spark and a blaze erupted in front of my face. The guy had fuckin' followed me! 
After returning to the dance floor I was fed up with it, he was definately preventing me from having a good time with my friends. So I just started to dance up on Mark and random. He finally got the picture and I felt bad when he quietly walked away looking so sad, but it had to be done.
Despite the extended interlude with my stalker it was definately an amazing night out. We finally dragged ass back to the hotel as the desert sky began to tint into dawn. The unnecessarily bright desert sun was definably not a welcoming thought after a night of drinking and dancing. So we sealed the thick sun-blocking curtains of the hotel room and I sealed my eyes dreaming of the possible realities that lay ahead.

Las Vegas Pride | The Begining
At the very last minute I decided to hit up Las Vegas Gay Pride 2008. So my roommate Kyle Foxxx and our friends Mark and Joseph left Los Angeles in search of rejecting reality & substituting our own fantastically wild and crazy one. It wasn't until we were passing Barstow (half way to Las Vegas) that I realized that I had left my cell phone in Los Angeles. Only imagining what kind of trouble & mischief each of us were going to get into, I bought a t-mobile pre-paid phone to get me through the weekend. It worked out pretty well besides the fact that I only had five entries in my phone book throughout the weekend. But I seemed to managed.
I absolutely loved the fact that the Las Vegas Pride Parade is at night! I could not imagine frying in the sun having to watch these glorified and glitter-fied flatbeds go by. Although, the heat would defiantly inspire more hot shirtless men... Kyle was walking in the parade with Rent Boy so Mark Joseph and I headed over to the parade route to show our support. It was actually my first time watching a Pride Parade, but I had a good breadth of references to know what to expect. The parade wasn't as boring as I thought it would be, but I think the fact that we could drink alcohol on the street as we watched the parade defiantly made everything more enjoyable, as is usually the case.
Although I hate it when gay culture gets so shallow, I have to admit I as looking at the hot shirtless men as if they were objectified pieces of meat. That is, incredibly hot, muscular, steamy, tasty, practically naked, begging-to-be-licked pieces of prime grade juicy man meat... what was I talking about again?
The RentBoy-mobile was hot as always. Who needs to decorate a float when all you have to do is stuff a car with hot boys in their underwear? So much easier and more efficient. Although, I thought it would be cool for each boy to stencil their hourly rate on their chest in the rent boy font. My thinking is that if you're advertising yourselves to the general public, why not be cheeky and creative with it? Or at least some rent boy underwear...

Button Down to Leather Jock | Exterface
I love an smart looking guy hiding an awesome bod beneath a button down and slacks. But going from brainy button down to a leather harness, mask, and jock strap; that's heaven. It's all about contrast of expected social behavior and deviance. I love Exterface's photography. The shoots are always edgy in content and imagery.
No Tuna Thank You | Teeth & Vagina Dentata
Teeth – DVD Available Now
Now I've never had the urge or desire to see, smell, or taste a vagina, but this movie Teeth just gives gay men all the more reason to never want to go near another vagina. The movie Teeth features a girl who deals with vagina dentata. Her pussy had fuckin' teeth! Yeah, I say no thank you. I heard about this movie a while ago and thought it was hilarious. I do think the analogy and imagery of the rose for the movie's promotional printed advertisements...
