It Gets Better

So helpful for today's gay teens to know that it definitely gets better.

If you're gay or lesbian or bi or trans, and you've ever read about a kid like Billy Lucas and thought, "Fuck, I wish I could've told him that it gets better," this is your chance. We can't help Billy, but there are lots of other Billys out there—other despairing LGBT kids who are being bullied and harassed, kids who don't think they have a future—and we can help them.

Felix Cane

I'm not a big pole dancing fan but I am a dance fan after having had 10+ years (ballet, tap, jazz, acrobatics) of it growing up and I appreciate a good dancer.

Felix Cane is one extraordinary dancer. She's very strong and sensual and I find it hard to take my eyes off of her. Her very last pole trick will be where she defies gravity as she twirls around and around.

Flipping around on the telly last night I saw her with the group Zumanity, a sensual act from Cirque du Soleil. Further examination told me that she was the World Champion Pole Dancer but it's her dancer's skills that probably nailed it for her.

The above video is from her appearance on Conan last night and her YouTube site can be seen at this YouTube link.

Obama's Speech - Video & Text

link

If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible; who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time; who still questions the power of our democracy, tonight is your answer.

It's the answer told by lines that stretched around schools and churches in numbers this nation has never seen; by people who waited three hours and four hours, many for the very first time in their lives, because they believed that this time must be different; that their voice could be that difference.

It's the answer spoken by young and old, rich and poor, Democrat and Republican, black, white, Latino, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled and not disabled - Americans who sent a message to the world that we have never been a collection of Red States and Blue States: we are, and always will be, the United States of America.

It's the answer that led those who have been told for so long by so many to be cynical, and fearful, and doubtful of what we can achieve to put their hands on the arc of history and bend it once more toward the hope of a better day.

It's been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this day, in this election, at this defining moment, change has come to America.

I confess that I cried most of the way through Barack Obama's presidential acceptance speech tonight. They will speak about this powerful, passionate speech for some time to come and the US will once again be proud of it's President.

We Are Not Alone

We are not alone.

Hear Astronaut Edgar Mitchell talk about his UFO experiences and what he knows for certain on this clip on YouTube.

There's no doubting his credibility. When will the US begin releasing the files on UFO visits? Mitchell says that several countries have started opening up their files-- Belgiam, Mexico, French, Brazil...

Does each President gets briefed on the truth about UFOs when they come into office or is NASA just putting out a blanket denial? Can you imagine Bush breaking that news to the nation?

Best Game Ever

From http://www.ImprovEverywhere.com, a little league baseball game is turned into a major league event. All players, coaches, and parents do not know what is happening. We worked with the league commissioner to get the kids' names and access to the field to setup our equipment the morning of the game. He was the only one in on it. NBC Sports worked with us and got us the jumbotron and the blimp.
