And another joke for my friend Wes:

How do you know that you are at a gay dinner party?

Fork on the left, spoon up the nose, knife in the back and dish, dish, dish

My sister-in-law Annette is walking for Breast Cancer

Dear friends and family,
As many of you know I am preparing to do the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer 3 day walk in Washington D.C. on October 3-5. I am going to be walking 60 miles over 3 days and I have committed to raising $2200 for the cause. I REALLY NEED your help to reach this goal.

Funny Jokes
Current mood: goofy

1. Seth Gold DJing! 

2. The mother of a 17-year-old girl was concerned that her daughter was having sex.

Worried the girl might become pregnant and adversely impact the family's status, she consulted the family doctor.

The doctor told her that teenagers today were very willful and any attempt to stop the girl would probably result in rebellion. He then told her to arrange for her daughter to be put on birth control and until then, talk to her and give her a box of condoms.

Later that evening, as her daughter was preparing for a date, the woman told her about the situation and handed her a box of condoms.
The girl burst out laughing and reached over to hug her mother saying:

'Oh Mom! You don't have to worry about that! I'm dating Susan!'

Ok, I get it (warning - angry and vulgar post)
Current mood: justified

We met about seven years ago. I was DJing at eXceSs after Artrageous. You came up and we chatted. I asked you out and we went on a date. You were intelligent, independent, well employed, and funny with southern etiquette - a delightful combination that I was highly attracted to. You came back to my apartment and was horrified - and in no uncertain words told me so. Because of course, the state of my living conditions is a direct reflection of my value as a human being. You didn't want to hang out with me because I was too into "clubland." Fine.

You moved away but would return every couple of months. You would always seem to come to eXceSs - and I would see you with your eyes dilated or your teeth chattering. Hmm. I always loved the black light inside the DJ booth at eXceSs because white powder really glows underneath it .. and you always had glowing rings on your nostrils. You would stop in the booth and say hi, ask me where to buy drugs and I would tell you that I don't do that. Me in my low self esteem phase was still attracted to you and thought you might be interested in dating. What a sick twisted fucking thought that was.

For the past three weeks you've come to Tribe on Wednesday and totally ignored me. I would say hi and talk to the people in your circle and you would not acknowlege me. I reached out to shake your hand and you looked the other way. Yes, you do look ok - but those drugs have left their mark on your face. Not that I would ever judge someone based solely on their looks, but you are rough. Hitting on guys half your age isn't that cute either.. it reeks of desperation. What are you going to do - go back to their parent's house and critique their decor? To each their own.

In the immortal words of Lainie Copicotto, "Fuck you, you fucking fuck." I've grown, advanced and made something with my life. Yes, I DJed an afterhours club - for 8 years, from opening to closing date. Did I ever ingest a single illegal substance during that time? No. I am not saying that I am better than anyone who has -- but to dismiss as being too into clublife and then turn into bar trash yourself seems to be some sort of justice.

Ok, I get it.. will you ever?

Great tech support story

This ranks up there with the "dumb terminal" story

I won't name the customer – but I was going over the Z60 update and when we finished the customer asked, "Why do you blame everything on your coworker?"

I wasn't sure how to respond, so I just asked what she meant.

"You seem to blame all the problems on your coworker named Dee."

I wasn't getting it and I apologized and said that I didn't understand.

"When we were going over everything, you kept saying everything was Dee's fault."

Maybe its my accent.. but it was all I could do to hold in my laughter when explaining what I meant by default.

A dishy, bitchy blog
Current mood: working

Great headline, eh?

Got a few messages saying that my blogs have been way too professional - and not really me - that I need to let things out a bit.   To be honest, I am actually in a really good place right now.  Things are going incredibly well on just about every level - professionally, personally, dj, production, etc

If I were to bitch about something - it would be that tonight seems like psycho night.

Psycho 1 - Ok, I will admit it, I was a bit promiscuous when I was in college.  No shock there.  A guy I was intimate with my sophomore year - 1993 - gets in my face tonight - and is really agressive.  In a really psycho kind of way.  "I've always dreamt of you." "I want to have children with you."  "I saved the condom from that night and its in my scrapbook."  Woh.. this is weird.  This is stalkerish.

Psycho 2 - He seems normal and wants to get to know me.  I ask what he does for a living.  He says "I'm a civil engineer, which is what you went to college for.  You have a degree in civil engineering from Vanderbilt.  I know a lot about you - you used to drive ... and live at ... and order .. at Shoneys.  You used to do laundry at .. and .."  Do you get where I am going?  He knew way too much about me.  Um.. this is weird.  This is stalkerish.

Psycho 3 - Not really psycho, just stupid or not observant.  Asks "Can you play some new Janet Jackson?"  On the screen is "Rock With U."  Um, excuse me?

With all that said - I know that I am blessed in some cosmic way to be an entertainer - playing music and video at clubs to make people happy.  The occasional psycho doesn't put a damper on my outlook.

And I got some amazing news in the mail today.. more about that later :)
