Saturday just got better! We're giving you 3 more hours to enjoy your cocktails. Not AfterHours. Pre-Popular! Now you can order cocktails as early as 6 PM. Not HappyHour. Pre-Popular!

All Pre-Popular cocktails are 1/2 price, without restriction or limitation, until 10:30 PM. Not just the cheap stuff. Everything, baby! That's right., across the board, all Pre-Popular cocktails, including the Jonathan Divatini, are 1/2 price. Get trashed for cheap! Twice the cocktails, without twice the price. Not 2-for-1. Pre-Popular! How much more explaining do you need?

Remember, you do have to come out earlier than usual, to take advantage of the 1/2 price cocktail promotion, but that just gives you more time to find a trick, or two, before last call!

Back to the East Coast!

Back to the East Coast

Tonigh, I'll be catching the Red Eye back to New York. I'll be meeting up with my friend Carlo, my Director of Photography, for this particular trip back to the East Coast. I haven't really been mentioning this trip, because I wasn;t planning on coming back to Fire Island for another three of four weeks. But last week, I received a call from my Friend Brad Hammer, letting me know that my attendance was being requeste. Actually It was being demanded. Therefore, here is this last minute trip.

I have been scheduled as one of the "Celebrity" Judges for the Miss Drag Universe held at Fire Island Pines! You may recall that I always have a great time on that little ithsmus. This weekend should be no exception. I plan on being all over that island, exploring every nook and cranny that I can climb into or on top of... Later, I;ll head into Manhattan to meet some friends in Chelsea, Hellsea and the Upper East Side.

More about this when I get back into West Hollywood for a few days, before heading off to San Diegoo with Angel, Brandon, Destiny and Rusty to once again ride in a convertible while being surrounded by some of the cutest young men that you've ever seen. So sexy, that some people would pay a small fortune just to be seen with them. In the meantime, entertain yourself by reviewing some pictures from last years, end of summer, trip to New York, Manthattan and Fire Island Pines.
