Unabashed Show-Offs: Blue Cross Knows What’s Up

July 8th, 2010

With the current climate of disdain for insurance companies, especially Blue Cross, I want to take a moment out and acknowledge the company with the balls to raise premiums 40% at one time.

Blue Cross Blue Shield telephone hold message:

Hey guys, a weekend at the lake sounds fun, but be aware of the dangers involved.  Males are three times as likely to die from drowning and fireworks than females.

This summer don’t be a show-off, and leave the heavy duty fireworks to the professionals.

Word.


Unabashed Valediction: xxxxxxxxxx

To Whom It May Concern:

When you “xxxxxx” at the end of every single email, I begin to doubt your sincerity.

Warmly,

Unabashedly Served: The Legends Ball

July 6th, 2010

I only participate in gay pride festivities in cities where gay visibility is needed.  I look forward to the future fag functions in my new home of Iowa City, Iowa, where hate groups à la Westboro Baptist Church still line the parade route using their inbred children as pawns.  LA, New York, San Francisco: count me out; I’m not interested in the fracas.

But then there are the subsets of the major cities’ festivals.  Black gay pride festivals take place in Chicago, Atlanta, Philadelphia, and this past weekend, Los Angeles Black Pride.  Among day trips to the beach in Malibu and dance parties downtown, one of the pinnacle events was The Legends Ball hosted by Mother Devine Chanel and Arnold Allure of House of Chanel and House of Allure, respectively.  If you don’t know what I’m talking about, wiki it or rent Paris Is Burning, but be gone until you do so.  [Pics after the jump.]
