In a piece dated July 7, 2000, I wrote a somewhat cunty column called “FEMALE TROUBLE” for Fab! Newspaper, where I describe my first time at the notorious and hilarious Dragstrip 66–an event that does not need much introduction for anyone who grew up at or near Los Angeles. DS66 delivered 20 years of […]
Ohmygawd, do you guys remember pride rings? I totally recall those rainbow colored rings that every openly queer person dangled from their necks back in the early 90s. These rings give me a total flashback to a time when you were seriously messing with your very LIFE whenever you put the rainbow colors anywhere […]
HAPPY PRIDE FUCKERS!!! Here’s a little throwback to LA Pride from the early crazy years. This has been published in the latest TLBG Pride issue of The Fight Magazine. I wore some pretty scandalous getups throughout the years as a big F.U. to anyone who had any problems with my being out and proud. […]
If the old West Hollywood Sports Connection (Erection/Infection) used to be a gay club back in its hey day in the 80’s and early 90’s (now it’s just a public gym known as 24-Sour Shitness), then The Athletic Club gym was pretty much an upscale gay oasis with its men-only policy that also lasted well […]
Here’s an article I wrote that has been published in the latest issue of The Fight Magazine. I’m throwing it back–waaayyy back to my first White Party weekend in the early 90’s during a time when it took big balls to look so cheap and be so openly gay. === Throwback to White Party Weekend, […]

ONE has recently launched “EZTV: Video Transfer," an exhibit at their gallery located on 626 North Robertson Blvd at Melrose in West Hollywood, showing an exhibition and […]
Here’s a small piece of West Hollywood history, just in time for Throwback Thursday. A friend of mine was eager to show me an old episode of Charlies Angels (one of the latter ones from 1979 with Jaclyn Smith, Cheryl Ladd and Shelley Hack). I was like, “I don’t wanna watch that shit.” And he […]
How many of you remember the vintage and long gone West Hollywood Sign? I recently wrote a love letter of sorts to the City of West Hollywood which is centered around that old sign. The story has been published in the latest issue of The Fight Magazine for Pride, so like check it […]
Hello lovers, lurkers, haters and WeHo history buffs!!! Does anyone remember the old West Hollywood Sign? Does anyone have any information on this historical little symbol in the heart of WeHo back in the early 80s? When did it go up? When did it come down? Why was it torn down? I’m desperately seeking names, […]
OH EM JEE! I totally found a sheet of black & white film strip while I was rummaging through my apartment looking for my lost wallet the other day. I’m talkin’ about the old school kind of negatives that you have to ship away to some special developing studio, cuz they don’t make photo labs […]
