ESPN to Show 'Straight Eye for the Homo Guy'

(2003-08-15) -- The Entertainment and Sports Programming Network (ESPN) announced today that its fall lineup will include 'Straight Eye for the Homo Guy', a new show based on a similarly-named program on another network.

On each episode a team of five heterosexual males will do a "makeover" on one homosexual man.

Preview screenings of the pilot showed the five guys uncomfortably shuffling around the menswear section at Wal-Mart picking out trousers for a guy named Maurice, who they refused to take with them.

...

In another scene, the team takes their subject to a Barber Shop to "get a real haircut." While he waits, they force him to read an issue of "Guns & Ammo."
Sadly, no mention of football or strippers. How can you have a makeover without football & strippers?

GUILTY AS CHARGED

Ok, I admit it, I've been lazy here. And y'know what?

It felt good.

Blogging is no fun when you feel pressured to put out something--anything--so that your readers have some reason to come back. It's easy to forget why I started doing this (i.e. pressure from Medley), and why I keep on doing this (i.e. it's fun).

Today was a shitty day. Amongst the various things that went so very wrong was the fact that my computer kept shutting down due to that DAMN RCP worm-thingy. Fuckers. It took me three hours to download the patch. The RCP problem would shut down my computer before I could finish downloading. Stupid slow dialup connection.

I have been remiss in not doing a movie review for either "Bad Boys II" or "S.W.A.T.". I must get on those.

Went to the Iowa State Fair on Sunday. Yes, there was a butter cow. And a butter Harley. The Harley didn't have any mirrors, though. Maybe it wasn't finished yet. The Fair food was good, but waaaay too many stupid people were out and about. Don't they have minders?

Also went to my first drag show last night. Very interesting. More thoughts on that later.

I'm currently trying to figure out a way to trick my gf into meeting my parents. For some odd reason, she's terrified to death of meeting them. I really don't know why--they're just like me, only more bland.

Oh, and Howard Dean (yes, that Howard Dean!) will be maybe playing harmonica & guitar here in Des Moines for a fundraiser on the 17th(?). Not sure if I can go or not. I really hope it's not a Dukakis-in-a-tank moment and more of a Clinton-playing-sax-on-TV moment.
