• Thought I was thiiiiis close to finally ending a YEAR AND A HALF LONG fic search for that ever-elusive Justin!HIV-scare scene. But alas, twasn't it. Close though! Justin was totally sitting on Brian's lap, but the dialogue didn't match. Upside? Getting to reread parts of London's brilliant series. Gah, I miss his writing. I remember DYING for new chapters to come out. And then reading them REALLYREALLY SLOWLY to make them last. OMG QAFOLDTIMERS DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN TWO CHAPTERS CAME OUT AT ONCE?! Best.time.ever.

• OMG. I just saw J-Lo's twins on E!. THEY ARE SCARY LOOKING, Y'ALL. D:

• My old TVGuide told me that FX's Dirt was cancelled. That show was my ultimate dirty pleasure for two glorious dirty seasons. Just how am I supposed to feed my Ian Hart crush now? Why do you hate me, TVGuide, why? :((((((

• I would totally be up to blackmailing Randy into agreeing to do a QaF movie. WHO'S WITH ME. There's has to be something we could use, something he doesn't want to get out. THINKING CAPS, PPL.

• So, hmm. I taped (but haven't watched yet) Burn Notice tonight, plus what I could catch of the marathon they ran earlier. This... is totally out of character for me, heh. Well, sorta. I'd seen a couple eps last season, but I kinda lost interest and kept forgetting to watch yada yada. But now I've got this sudden urge to start watching it again. Don't let anyone tell you a station repeating TV premiere commercials 3984955 times doesn't work.

• "Gale Harold probably doesn't even notice gay men anymore." Uh. Gale lives in L.A. Yeah, kinda hard NOT to.

• I feel so, so bad that I didn't see this earlier, you guys. THANK YOU SO MUCH for all the sweet things said about me at this year's QaF Love Meme! I hope every single one of you knows how much I heart you. Cos I do. Lots and lots. ♥ ♥ ♥

• "I thought he had married several years ago, but her name is not listed in his bio."
--Randy's imdb board, "Is he married?"

BUT IT GETS BETTER OMG. "I can't believe he is gay, I never would have known." I... ALDKALDKFALJ. This is what happens when you do not have your gaydar tuned up each year, tsk tsk. You get false readings and before you know it, you're searching on the net for wedding pictures. In my imaginary R/S world, Simon just yelled from the living room into the bedroom for Randy to check his email, where he's sent him the above link and the following: "WAIT I DID NOT KNOW U WERE GAY! "

• Pothead!Gale is appropriate for any and all forums, kthx.

• Remember this? Yeah, s'not happening, Fay said. Way to kick me in the nuts, Fay. :( There was a Sept release date listed, but tis gone now. Y'know, considering how long this is taking, there is just something so v. ironic about the fact that Slow Hand Releasing is the studio attached to this movie. And, uh, v. dirty sounding, heh.

• Though, I guess we can still vote for a FFG DVD release! I don't know why my age matters, but okay. This DVD? I needs it. I needs it bad. That site also has a gallery of "new" photos that I'm sure most everyone has already checked out, but I must post them here, cos a) I pretend to be organized occasionally, but mostly b) GAAAAAAALE. The only thing I changed was the coloring. THE RED TONES WERE MAKING MY EYES BLEED.

( photos )

Thanks to QaF Addiction for the heads-up!


New German magazine cover (left) and Out's cover from 2000 (right)
Randy has his chin lifted an extra two inches and I can't stop flicking my eyes back and forth to compare. Doesn't hurt Gale is eyefucking the camera in every photo from that shoot adlfaj. It's amazing the slight difference in mood that just Randy lifting his chin a little creates. The shadows on his face change, the shape of his jaw shortens, his ear looks a wee bit less weird. I bet Randy had a warm spot on his forehead from Gale's chin resting there. Awww, a Gale hot spot. Heh. And while we're talking Out, how about some entwined fingers! The whole slumped posture makes me whimper. So possessive. ♥

Oh, y'all. Thinking about the bzillions of unused photos from all the various Gandy/QaF/etc photoshoots just sitting around kills me daily. There could be behind-the-scenes type ones where the camera caught them laughing between serious shoots or sticking their tongues out at each other or in mid-question if they could break for a cigarette or rubbing their eyes because they're tired of all the camera shit. And these aren't used because that's not the mood the magazine wanted or whatever reason. Like, there could be close-ups of the holy crooked tooth that the photographers were all, "Not this one, crooked tooth is too shiny with spit here and this one has a possible booger in his nose." and then they slide right on to the next frame with their little magnifying eyeglass thingies and the poor little photos never see the light of day again.

I WOULD LOVE TO SEE GALE'S SPITTY TOOTH AND RANDY'S BOOGERS IS ALL I'M SAYING KTHX.

Heh, just noticed the cover stories are completely opposite. "Queer Is Here!" and 8 yrs later, "Bye-Bye QaF!" Also, wow: EIGHT YEARS. o.O

Forget the chocolates with the carbs and the pink-hearted cards and flowers that make your boyfriend sneer and shake his head in pity for the suckers of the world. Because one Justin Taylor made Brian a Valentine's Day gift they both can whole-heartedly support--it's all about Brian's cock. ;)

( he really is large. he's gonna poke someone's eye out one day. )

♥ HAPPY BRIAN KINNEY COCK DAY, FLIST! ♥

The one straight-laced chick who looks all *WTF* - SHE IS MY FAVORITE OMG. You know annsummers.com went to Brian and was all "I need to get more dildos into more women, Mr. Kinney!", he was all "UM EW VAGINAS ARE ONLY GOOD FOR SMUGGLING DRUGS KTHX", but annsummers.com was all "But you could be responsible for countless orgasms!" and then Brian was all *flashes back on 41984736501857 trick's o-faces with Justin's as every other one (and the only one in color and not blurry)*

The rest is history, baby.

• [Randy] is surprisingly short with an abnormally large head. Also, the visual of him clapping above his head like a happy, speshul seal makes me v. v. giddy. Oh, Randypants. :X Wonder what show it was? ETA: OMG, dreamingkitty gives us seal!Randy ALDSFKJAS.

( all the fangirl text in case it disappears )

• Haha this is awesome you Gale fanatics! Well, he looked great. He had some facial hair and a cool hat. He showed up with a guy with a matching hat... -- a blogger, when asked about Mr. Howard the night he was spotted at a LGBT party (and reported by dreamingkitty, my hero as always ♥)


Shhh, you don't see them hiding in their matching camouflage hats!
They just blend right in, y'know. I'm just glad he was out and about. Though, uh, I'm not sure why I am. He's probably perfectly happy at home reading or covered in motorcycle grease in his garage or some such. But, hey, free liquor! Not to mention the chance to show off one of his hats. Oh, yeah, baby.

( 10 things that make me go hmm about this latest galespotting )

( the blog's text )

So, anyway, got me curious about mean-looking!Gale and if he actually existed in any of the photos I had. Turned out to be quite the challenge, go figure!

( the elusive search for the mean-looking galeface )

• Speaking of screenings, I was in Whole Foods this past weekend when I got randomly invited to an advanced screening (aka audience test) for a George Clooney movie on Tuesday. Let me repeat that - GEORGE CLOONEY, PEOPLE, ALFDKASJLDKF. ♥ ♥ ♥ Later that night I did about .002 seconds of Googling and found out it had to be Leatherheads. WITH JOHN KRASINSKI, AKA PAM'S JIM. So, we're talking George AND John in a movie that's not slated to come out until next spring. And then Tuesday rolled around and I was struck dead with that sinus headache that literally blinded me for a few hours. :| :| :|

• I somehow forgot to tape Bionic Woman and Life last night and it's not like there's a lot of eps left before the strike-drought begins. Dammit. Actually, I don't even know how many are left for any of my shows. I kinda don't wanna even look. *denial*

• We're mere days away from the big ole gay QaF box set release. I guess we're just not gonna get an extras listing at all? :|

• I love Lucy, too, but, I gotta admit, she's not the first one I think of when shopping for gay boys doing the buttsecks, Amazon.

• Joule got fugly. :((

• For the past six years, I've been saying Thea's name "Thhhhayah" and not "Tayah". I am a little bit retarded.

• Wow, the galeharoldblogs feed has been spitting up a lot of spam lately. Annoying. Still, there is something about seeing "gale harold nude hot boodies" (I'm not sure if that's supposed to be "bodies", "boobies" or "booties", but whichever, they're nude and hot and I wanna see 'em) and "gale harold in underware" (but not underwear, that'd be different) on one's flist that perks me right up. A couple more, you ask? BUT OF COURSE!

1. gale harold bisexual (*crosses fingers*)
2. hal sparks with gale harold kissing (NO WANT! NO WANT!)
3. randy harrison and gale harold kissing hard (WANT! WANT!)
4. randy harrison and gale harold sex pizza themed art (I'm not sure what a sex pizza would entail, but I bet it's hot and spicy and requires Randy being v. hungry and Gale being v. stoned.)
5. randy harrison and gale harold nude simpsons (I want them drawn as Simpsons characters SO BADLY.)
6. www.gangbangbus.com set up gale harold in underware granny wig (Well, okay, that one is just disturbing.)

Almost forgot to post this here aldfja. My contribution as a guest star over at lizathon last weekend during Blogathon. ♥

( now get your platform shoes on and let's boogie! )

The summer is about to get a lot hotter as AIDS Project Los Angeles (APLA) presents its 22nd Summer Party on Saturday, August 4 at “The Lot” in West Hollywood.

Legendary divas Thelma Houston and Tiffany will headline on the 104.3 KBIG outdoor concert stage, while Showtime Networks will create the Queer As Folk dance party with special cast appearances on a soundstage. --here or here

Dude! There's gonna be a QaF gathering of Babylon proportions this weekend! Please see to it, fandom, that we have stalker operatives fans already in position behind every available palm tree and slushee stand and hired go-go dancer, and that all the entrances and exits are under surveilance should Gale and Randy show up. We're gonna need coverage on this, people. Stay alert and quick out there! Randy has been known to carry sharp objects and isn't afraid to use them. Bring back reports and make me proud.

Even though we all know there's no chance they're gonna be there askjda. BUT SHUT UP COULD HAPPEN. You watch. Soon as we think they won't be somewhere, we're gonna see it on some random TV blog how they were spotted making out behind the stage or something and we will be all *shakes tiny fists at them* for being wiley enough to escape us.

And someone tell me there's some awesome singing drag queen named Tiffany that I'm not aware of. Because if teen-80s-singer!Tiffany is considered a legendary diva now, I'm going to require some alone time to bang my head against my desk kthx.

Two things I'd bet good money on:

• Who will show up. My official guess: Hal, Hal, Hal, oh, yeah, and Hal. Robert, Peter. And Thea. Cos, y'know, there's gonna be an open bar and all.

• The v. high odds that this will show up as an upcoming DVD "extra".

( but, hey, let's take a peek at what it would look like if G/R did show up for the dance party )

( the real event poster )

QUEER AS FOLK REUNION OMFG!!!

(&hearts jammer1027 and pbanda for the head's up♥)

I just peed. Also, I firmly believe Randy had a pantless!Gale pressed up against the bathroom wall while this was being filmed kthx. They'll be out later and Gale will make up words and Randy will flip off the camera.

So, chances are this is an extra being filmed for a re-issue of the later seasons or full-season box set and not a whole new DVD, but STILL. V. v. exciting to think what other extras will be included. I've got my fingers crossed for the full-season box set. Would give them a chance to make up to us the horror that was S5 packaging. Ah, yes. We remember you well, Rosie!arm.

And this Nov release date (just in time for cmas, heh) is actually good timing for me. I've been mentally gearing myself up to FINALLY watch 513 this August on its airing anniversary. Cos I'm ridiculously romantic like that.

And in case I hadn't peed enough with excitement, Blogathon starts tomorrow. BLOGATHON, PEOPLE!!! Only one of my favoritest days in the world and for such good causes. ALSO, SO MUCH INSANE FUN. So, be at lizathon and sev_4_blogathon starting tomorrow morning (6 a.m. PT) or I will send Ted to confiscate all your porn.

Is anybody else from our v. gay fandom doing Blogathon? Lemme know if you are, I'll totally stalk you like my hero Justin. ♥
