Did You Get All of Your Chores Done?

Hope everyone had a great Sunday afternoon. Thanks to Veovix for posting this first and giving me something to share with all my friends out there.

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to scrounge up some kleenex...

Matty's New Watering Hole

It's just around the corner from my new place. I've been there once and it feels like home. A little more old mannish than I'm used to but it's not like I'm getting any younger, and it's just a stumble away.

Join me in a drink, won't you.

Mad Props and Shout Outs!!

Listen to today's episode of Lucky Bitch Radio to hear Matty's call from the road to Wanda Wisdom thanking her for the inspiration to follow his dreams. Also, you can catch the subtle promotion of Galore Podcast! WOOT WOOT!!

And if that's not enough, check out our listing on Podcast Pickle!

Lookit us! We're famous!

The GAYEST Thing from 1953

So I'm here in LA, enjoying the warmth and watching my netflix:



Gentlemen Prefer Blondes to be precise. And...wow! GAY!!

Behind the Power Curve

Well we missed St. Patty's day, but that's alright cause Cinco De Mayo is just around the corner...kind of. Oooo first there's April Fools Day...

Anyway, tune in to a special episode getting posted on Thursday to hear about all the latest changes in the Galore pod-hosts lives.

In the meantime, suck on some satirical Showboat meets Cabaret meets Baby Jane from Broadway's Leading Ladies. Matty's first random PBS Broadway musical which just opened a big gay can of worms.



Fagalicious am I right, ladies?

For Seattle locals, don't forget to go see Cabaret playing at the 5th Ave theater starting Tuesday March 25th.

Thanks To Tom Coffee!

Of Spilling Coffee.com for generously providing the the Corporate Vader picture in our last post. As anyone who normally reads the blog can probably tell, the pictures used are very rarely ours. This is primarily due to the free associative nature of the posts and how they're on-the-spot observations which don't provide the time to create our own set of photos. Our hats goes off to people who can take the time to create so much original content, it DOES make their blog that much more creative and original. We definitely don't mean to be stingy with the recognition because there's no way we could create the majority of images used to spice up this blog. But don't they make it that much more interesting?

So, going forward we will make more of an effort to recognize those who've provided us with a substaniative portion of our visuals. Perhaps you've already caught on to the irony that the above picture was perloined from Gift of Kindness.com, a site dedicated to inspiring others to be kind, compassionate, and loving to one another. Awwww.

Thanks to Tom Coffee (for bringing this issue to our attention), Gift of Kindness, and all the other websites who've helped Galore-y Blast to be the big colorful group effort it is. BIG GROUP HUG!!

Nerd Alert!

The mood struck me to change my signature quote on my hotmail account. For whatever reason I thought of a perfect cynical yet thoughtful one from my past, but couldn't remember how it went.

So I googled the words I could recall. That didn't work. Then I remembered...I set up a geocities web page YEARS ago. On a whim, I tracked it down and...

My first web page.

I thought it had been deleted years ago. Maybe now that you can see it, I'll wish it had been.

My Hat Goes Off To You...

...lady who does her make up on the bus. Firstly it's fun to watch the transformation. Secondly, how the hell do you not stab your damn eye out with the mascara stick?

KUDOS TO YOU!!

Sassy PANTS!!

This clip is mildly old, but due to it's incredibly sassy nature (and calling out of Andy Dick) is still relevant. Enjoy!

Time to Strip!

It's the first Saturday of the month and that can only mean one thing. PAY YOUR RENT!!

Ok, means two things. Rent and BACON STRIPS at Re-Bar starting at 11:30ish.

Above is footage from the first Bacon Strips Matty went to in November. 2 minutes in you get to see the FABULOUS Maxine Delacunt do a little ditty from Chicago.

Rumor has it this month she's got two numbers...

PS The theme is 70's porn. Slather on the blue eyeshadow and don't shave your pubes and you can get in for $5 instead of $7, AND possibly win prizes in the costume contest!

Happy Leap YEAR!!!

To take a break from work, I did a little wikipedia-ing and found out information about this glorious February 29th day. Apparently it's a tradition that leap years are the only years when women can propose to men without being hussy tarts!. So listen up ladies, take a moment to be empowered! For another 305 days making your own call on who you want to marry doesn't mean your just a cunty strumpet.

And here is another comic I found searching for the one above. It cracked me up. I know, I'm a nerd!

Come On Girl, Shake That Ass!!

In order to boost attendence at their games, the Florida Marlins have created a cheerleading squad of overweight guys called the MANatees.

God bless America, it's favorite pastime, and apple pie...

Hey! Who ate all the...oh...

Get Ready WeHo...HERE I CUM!!!!

After a quick jet-setting trip to LA, Matty has landed a place in West Hollywood. Literally just a stroll down Santa Monica Blvd from the big RAINBOW FLAGS decorating the street AND a fancy pants mexican place.

Homos and margaritas...this move is going to ROCK!!!

Even 700 years Later...

...the exes come out of the woodwork. Sir Hugh [Tampon] Despenser wasn't a very nice guy AND was apparently boning King Edward II of England in the 1300s. And then he was brutally murdered by King Edwards wife when she took over the throne. Can you think of any exes you'd like to kill off who just wouldn't die? I can...

Hot Shit!

You're not changing the face with any of the costumes?? Really?! Ok...

Wikipedia's Just Being Mean...

Less than 24 hours after Mit Romney has dropped out of the presidential election, the article for the day is about John Smith's gold plates.

And if you look close, a recent article is famed popular conservative President, Ronald Reagan.



And to add insult to injury, scroll down and what's today's Featured Picture? John Edwards in front of an American Flag!



It's not nice to gloat, wikipedia.

We're So Hip!

We're predicting "breaking news" on CNN before it was even posted. While it may be a 38 year old story, WE talked about it first in 2008 on this weeks episode

Here's an in depth report with all the footage on CNN

Insurance is Fun!

I'd never seen this one before. Oh James Lipton...


Although this one is still my favorite. See how much being in the closet for 50+ years breaks your brain!

Run Like You're Being Chased by Satan!!

And so the countdown begins...not to the Oscars (cause no one on this podcast cares apparently). To Matty's move to LA.

I just turned in my notice.

About time, it's freaking FREEZING here!

In About 8 Hours...

...I'm giving myself the gift of unemployment. Some say it's the gift that keeps on giving. And in the spirit of giving, let us not forget the most wonderful gift of all...



...You Tube...

Happy Birthday LEGO!

Remember those long Saturday afternoons when you made a LEGO wall all the way around the living room? What's the biggest/weirdest thing you've made with LEGOs?

It's Finally Happened

Work has become so much a standard part of my routine now that I think I could honestly find myself on the bus one day without pants and the only thing stopping me is that my legs would be cold when I left the apartment.

The Kitchen Area at Work...

...smells like the continental breakfast nook at a hotel. Mmmmm, warm things. Blech. What does your kitchen smell like?

My gay, gay ipod

I'm fine owning up to my gayness in all it's forms, but seriously, if my ipod plays ONE more Electric Light Orchestra song on random today, I'm just gonna strip down to my purple unitard and skip through downtown Seattle with a streamer behind me!

I HEART Seattle

"Benjamin Franklin Climbs 5,000 Stairs
(!!!)

Have you always dreamed of watching someone dressed like Benjamin Franklin climb 5,000 stairs? Today's your lucky day. This afternoon in the University of Washington's Red Square, historical presenter G. Robin Smith dons his Franklin garb and hauls himself up 5,000 stairs, to raise awareness and funds for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. (UW's Red Square, between Odegaard Library and Kane Hall, www.gobengo.info. 2–4 pm, free.)"

From The Stranger Suggests

Fatal Diseases are PRECIOUS!!

As found on the Seattle waterfront in the Ye Olde Curiousity Shoppe, Giant Microbes.

I'm not sure what's more cuddly, HIV or Polio.

Maybe the Clap.

Pakio's Favorite Video Ever!

It may be months after the fact, but we deliver. Here it is, in all it's half minute glory. The DRAMATIC CHIPMUNK!!!

I'm Not Sure They Can Do a Gold Anniversary

Did anyone else know the Smurfs were 50 years old?

Apparently the TV cartoon didn't start until the 80's, but as characters, they've been around since 1958.

Which Smurf would you be?

Growing up is Hard!

A slow day at work today let me to free associate on wikipedia where I started researching Thundercats. It was one of my favorite shows when I was a kid. And then I saw a picture of the guy who did Lion-O's voice...



I hoped maybe to improve my mood by looking up the voice of He-man but just found this...


...sigh...

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year!

Saturday is Pakio's birthday and Monday is mine. Happy Birthday shout outs to all my Capricorn peeps!

As evidenced by the picture above, we're gonna rock and roll all night and party every day! Um...with a moose. Every kid looks like they've got something on their minds. What do YOU think they're thinking? Let us know.

And you know whoever is in that moose costume has a thought or two about ankle-biters.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Casual Friday Cums Early (ewww)

Looking up something about the upcoming birthday's, I found this. Thought it was cute. Especially since he bothered to put black socks on.
