So okay, this is super weird. I am a really big fan of this site 23/6.com. They are an off shoot of Huff Po. It is satirical political blog that I found because some comedians I used to see all the time did videos for it. Eugene Mirman does political coverage, John Benjamin does fake Swift Boat ads and John Glaser… well John Glaser is just a weird, weird man. They also have animated Get Your War On comics which are pretty mind blowing. Oh and Bobby Tisdale and Joe Mandy do videos too… Lots of East Village regulars…

Anyway after the election I sort of steered clear of politics in general. This week I drove from Richmond to DC and back listening to right wing talk radio the whole way for some reason so I am back into it a bit. I guess I need to give a fuck who the Secretary of Commerce is all of a sudden. I guess that is the price you pay when your team wins. I know who the back up left guard is for the Miami Dolphins, I guess I should be able to defend the questionable choice of retaining Robert Gates as Secretary Of Defense some how…

Okay, the point is I checked 23/6 for the first time in a few weeks and I was catching up on videos and I saw this video where you had to guess if a person was a pornstar or a Democrat based only on a close up picture of a mustache. I have to tell you I was not doing well. In fact I got everyone wrong until I noticed a specific mustache… “That’s Ron Jeremy!” I exclaimed to no one in particular. I was right, but when they pulled back and showed the full photo I realized why I recognized it. I took the photo! It was pretty amazing, although it is on his Wikipedia page, so I guess that is where they got it. They didn’t credit me though, and I was in a strangely litigious mood (I am in the process of taking someone to small claims court) and I emailed them to complain about this. They were very cool about it, apologized and added my credit to the video.

Now admittedly this blog is long and rambling, but we are finally getting to the pay off, the money shot as Mr. Jeremy might say. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you… Democrat Or Pornstar: Mustache Edition!

I have a few photos in some things right now.

When I was at the beach the other week I got a call wondering why I hadn’t sent in images from the Jump party for URB Magazine.  They had a 6pm deadline and I hadn’t received the email since I was on the beach.  It was 530PM and I was in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean (Well maybe not quite the middle…) fishing.  They were all flustered and when we got back to shore I rushed to my computer and spent an hour editing all the images they wanted until they were nice and pretty.  My friends were pretty annoyed that we were sitting around instead of enjoying the beach. But I got them done, and they told me they had time to publish them.  A month later, I get a copy and they only used two photos (featuring 3 Burning Angels) in this spread with tons of other parties.  There wasn’t even a write up of the party or anything.  It was mildly disappointing but what can you do.

The next published shot I have was pretty hilarious.  I got an email about a photo on my flickr account a long time ago.   I completely forgot about it and then the other day I get a package from Australia in the mail.  What could this be I wondered?  Well it was a travel magazine called “Get Lost“.  I flipped through it until I recognized a photo of two of my friends making out that I took at Le Royale about a year ago.  They used it for an article about how people from Lesbos were sick of being called Lesbians.  I think that is pretty hilarious, especially because the girls kissing are in no way lesbians (Jamie is about to have a daughter!), but I have to say that the photography in get lost is pretty amazing, so I am at least in good company.

Lastly, we have a photo of Prince Terrence published in his home town paper, the LEO Weekly. He told me he was going to bring me a copy of the paper, but you can read the article on him online, so that is probably good enough.  The LEO didn’t credit me though.  That’s the last time I do them a favor, god damned horse raising, bourbon drinking bastards.

Okay here is the video from Good Morning America. I will post about the experience and the fall out when I wake up in this same post. I am just going to update it. I’ve been up 24 hours, must sleep a bit…

Update:
Okay.  I am awake.  The other day I got a phone call from Good Morning America while I was at work.  They wanted me to come in that day to shoot something about the cheating video on You Tube.  My boss let me leave for a few hours, but I had to come in early yesterday to make up for it.  Anyway, I coincidently was wearing the sweater that I had on in the video.  It was probably the first time I have worn it since then.  I also hadn’t shaved in a few days so on the way to the studio I bought a razor and a hoodie from Duane Reed.  I then shaved in a Starbucks bathroom homeless style.  I got lost on the way to the studio due to bad directions, so I was running and when I got there I was thirsty and sweaty and my hair was a mess.  I thought they would have some sort of stylist or something, but they didn’t even give me a mirror so I just sort of pushed my hair down which is why I sort of look odd on TV.  Anyway, they interviewed me for like 10 minutes and aired about 5 seconds.  I figured they wouldn’t show much, but it was even less than I expected, but they did show a lot of my video which was cool.    I am not sure why I went on, when it was clear that I am a bad guy for teaching kids to cheat, but its not every day 5 million people watch you do anything, so why not, good story.  My mom was not pleased with this response, but what can you do?  She was even less pleased when my fundamentalist Christian aunt saw it, but what can you do?  Such is life.  I have gotten a bunch of hate mail from it, but mostly positive stuff.  Anyway, watch it, it’s pretty silly.  I’ve been emailing with the girl in it, and she’s doing something for CBS next week and has gotten even more hate mail than me!  I hope nothing bad happens with her, she’s young enough that this video might get her in trouble.

Oh yeah, the video was posted on the main page of Yahoo.com all day yesterday too… Jeez.. If only it mentioned this site some how, I might have some traffic.  Honestly that is the most disappointing thing is that all this exposure has done almost nothing for my traffic… Sigh…  Make me feel better, if you have a blog, link to this!  Or not…  I am going to go finish season 4 of Weeds.  The very late photos from Wednesday will be up before midnight…

I once played an evil villain in a music video so I am used to playing the bad guy role.  Tomorrow I am going to be on Good Morning America talking about my YouTube video that teaches kids to cheat and suggests they try it in a very tongue in cheek way.  I thought it was big when I got a line in an LA Times article, but GMA gets like 5 million viewers a day.  I am sure they are going to edit my interview until I sound like I am some horrible guy corrupting the youth of America, but it is only a very small part of a section on kids teaching kids to cheat online.  I will probably only be on it for 15 seconds, but still, it is amusing.  I will talk more about it tomorrow.  I will also be posting the photos from the Alumni party at Arlo & Esme last night tomorrow.  In the mean time I just need to go to sleep so I can wake up early and watch it.

Since I talk about my web site in the video, and I assume there will be a bunch of new people coming to my site tomorrow here are a few links of things that I like on this site.  For those of you who haven’t seen them, check them out too.

Thanks for stopping by… More updates LATE tomorrow.

Would Like To Fuck #2 is out and I have three photos in this issue. The zine is very not safe for work. There is an image in there that is of a guy sticking his dick (in a very artistic way for course) into a meat grinder. It makes a guy want to pass out. Anyway of the three images in there, one of them I sort of sent as a joke. I am glad they used it though.

I was dating this girl many years ago and she was sort of insane. One time I came home from class and I opened my refrigerator and I saw that there was a half opened root beer sitting on top of this note:

She broke into my house to leave it. Also, just FYI the “drug” she was on was ritalin. Seriously. I took the photo of the note for Passive Agressive Notes but they never ran it. I sent it to WLTF because the new issue is about poetic fucking and I thought it was appropriate, if not my best image ever…

Anyway, check out the new issue, it is pretty great.

A few weeks ago Krames asked me to shoot a photo of him for XLR8R magazine.  I went down to Happy Endings where he was DJing and we took some shots.  Then after he finished, we took some more.  After all that they used about a third of one of my photos and printed it about 2 inches high.  But then again, it was about three times as big as what they actually WROTE about Krames, so I guess it is pretty good after all.  Anyway, I picked up a copy of the issue, and the first thing I opened to was an article making fun of the Jump because it had like 30 hosts, which I was one of, and which Krames DJ’d.  So we had some positive press and negative press in the same issue.  Amazing.  Click the photos for the full article.

Hey. I am back from vacation. While I was on cruise control just posting all sorts of naked photos from the Hot Movies party, all that stuff started getting a lot of press so I figured I would drop those links on you while I get back into the swing of things.

• Fleshbot wishes they were with me in Philly.
• Indienudes sent me thousands of hits because of my NSFW week.
• Hotmovies.com posted my Strip For Pain photos.
• Pornsaints used a couple shots for their blog.
• Joanna Angel posted my photos on the Burning Angel blog.
• Village Voice bought the photos too.

Totally exciting. Also a bunch of the BA Girls that I was hanging out with last weekend are in town tonight, so hopefully tomorrow I will have some more crazy photos. Get excited.

This is the backside of the infamous IGOR paddle. I submitted the photo to Skul-A-Day.com and it was posted the other day.  I was pretty happy about that.  You should check it out here.

People seemed excited about it, so I am going to teach you how to make one of your own.  I made a new one and took a lot of photos, so I will get up the DIY paddle guide as soon as I find someone to hit with the new one.  Any volunteers?

I spent a few hours today working on my topless Polaroid book. I probably haven’t talked about it on here in a while, but I have photographed hundreds of topless girls on Polaroid over the last 8 years. Not all of them have given me permisson to use theirs so I am somewhat limited, but I still have a ton to choose from. I am picking the best photos and writing a story about each girl and making it into a book. That will hopefully get published some how. Anyway, it has probably been up for a while, but I just noticed that a few of my polaroids were uploaded to the French website 50 Rooms. It is a pretty respected site as far as dirty Polaroids are concerned, so I am quite happy to be up there. In celebration here are a few newer topless polaroids that are not quite going to to make it into my book.
