Newsy day.

Wednesday, May 31st, 2006

So, with a to-do list as long as my arm, today turned into media day. I was interviewed on X96 “Radio From Hell” this morning, KRCL midmorning, and KSL in the afternoon. There was also this article in the Deseret News. Today’s my last “office day” before the Utah Pride Celebration. Set-up and our film [...]

Blind Prophecy #006 – Mormons and Marriage

Monday, May 29th, 2006

It’s my birthday weekend and a week until Utah Pride, but we’ve got to talk about the LDS church and its new marching orders to the members about the anti-gay Federal Marriage Amendment. Also, I was in the news this week.

Here Go the Mormons

Sunday, May 28th, 2006

Fuck. Fuck-fuckity-fuck. LDS set sights on marriage measure By Jason Bergreen The Salt Lake Tribune Orrin Hatch’s press secretary said the U.S. senator from Utah receives about 1,000 pieces of mail each day. He may want to brace for more. Bishops of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints were expected to read a [...]

Irony of LJ

Sunday, May 28th, 2006

I hate that when my life is most interesting and I’d most like to be journalling my experiences, I have so little time/energy to devote to blogging… yet when I have the time to post a lot, I feel like I’m babbling about nothing important. Tonight I went to a dinner party hosted by Jesse [...]

X-3

Saturday, May 27th, 2006

Okay, so I didn’t hate it as much as other people seem to. No, it’s not the best movie in the X-Men series, but it was okay. Mostly, though, I’m looking forward to the DVD to find out what got cut because the movie felt far too short. Like I’m missing the important scenes between [...]

Media Exposure

Friday, May 26th, 2006

Look. It’s actually hard to get excited about this stuff anymore. I’m just glad they actually mentioned Pride (barely, in the second to last paragraph) after last year’s fiasco. In Utah This Week is a new weekly arts & entertainment tabloid. I’d call it alternative, but it’s owned by the Salt Lake Tribune, or at [...]

Oprah for President

Friday, May 26th, 2006

It’s so easy to make fun of Oprah when she’s screaming along with Tom Cruise or making self-righteous speeches about dieting and self-esteem. There are times when I question if she’s too influential (such as her unintentionally heterosexist show on the “down low” culture). But then there are episodes like the one I saw late [...]

Winding down?

Thursday, May 25th, 2006

Well, today has been oddly quiet. I guess it’s a good sign that things are slowing down for me with Utah Pride. Today has alternated between little bursts of busy followed by big stretches of wondering what I’ve forgot or what I should be doing. I know it’s probably the calm before the storm, but [...]

Picspam Meme

Wednesday, May 24th, 2006

Last week I posted a meme that read: Ask me to take a picture of any aspect of my life that you’re interested in – it can be anything from the house I live in to my favourite shoes. Leave your choice here as a comment, and I will reciprocate by taking the pictures and [...]

Then and Now

Sunday, May 21st, 2006

Wow, second meme in a week (although I haven’t quite finished the first one yet – tomorrow, I think). This came from *-*-*upstart_crow”> 1) Where did you go to school? THEN: Freshman at the University of Nevada, Reno NOW: Dunzo 2) Where did you work? THEN: Macy’s, selling men’s shoes – worked in the costume [...]
