George wrote in to first ask us a technical question, and then to prove with photos that his life is more fun than ours.

"Hey dudes,
quick question, do the liners have a "high rise" fit
or fit more like a pair of boardshorts (low rise)?
There's not a shop around Aspen listed, but I'm stoked
on the product. 
anyway rock out. bummer life is awesome.
enjoy some pics from our boys going away night
"bachelor party." if you haven't, you should have a
faux bachelor party with your crew, free shots and
chicks all around. and spring time in fort collins,
co.

Ryan also gave us a shout this weekend.

"Hey Guys,

Been a fan for a while. But I found some great Rasmussen sightings that I have posted on my blog.

Pull Your Pants Up(dot)com

Ryan Guay"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That Ryan is a busy character, and we whole heartedly enjoy and support pullyourpantsup.com. Hell, as much as we enjoy pulling our pants up, why wouldnt we?
Later on over the weekend, Hawk, who is better known to some as the vice president of the Chest Hair Now! action group wrote in to give us a whats what in the world of moustache related art.

"Hey dewdz.  It's snakehawk.  in north crackalina.  Just thought i'd send you a pic from my recent art show.  It can be viewed in its fullest glory (which isn't all that much) over at drunkcyclist.com, or on my gay myspace.com/snakehawk page.  Later.  Happy 'stacheing.

Hawk."

So for a few years there, a small and dedicated group of us in the Bay Area held an annual 'Moustache Bash'. Each year for upwards to six months, the individual contestants would groom their own style of stache in preparation for the event. At one point last year at about month 4, my better half moved into kiss me, and suddenly recoiled exclaiming that my moustache smelled of Parmesan cheese. This wouldnt have been so bad if it were not for the fact that I had been nowhere near any Parmesan cheese.
Anyhow, its been said by those who know the two of us individually, that we should never cross paths with one another for fear of, as one of his close friends put it, the universe folding in on itself.
Hawks planning to be in attendance at next years moustache party, so when the universe begins to collapse, youll know why.

Id now like to present to you the first years winner, yours truly.

And speaking of folks who appreciate moustaches, CO and I were emailing one another at some point over the weekend discussing important things like hangovers and muscle cars, and he laid some heavy info on me.

"Did you know that the "Plum Crazy" color Challenger was affectionately known as "Statutory Grape" cause the pervy dude that was out of High School but always went to the High School parties more often than not had one."
Like Wooderson says, "that's what I love about these high-school girls. I get older, they stay the same age."

And now to continue. From moustache greatness to a serious problem for New York artist, Alain Ket Maridueña who could use some help and awareness of his situation.

"Online Auction to Support KET's Defense Fund

Shepard has joined many of Alain Ket Mariduena's friends in supporting his on going battle with the NYC courts by presenting an Art Benefit for Alain Ket's Legal Defense. Art will be auctioned off on July 26th and an event will be held on August 1st in NYC with proceeds going towards the defense fund.

Alain Ket Maridueña is a publisher, writer, Hip Hop historian, activist and graffiti artist from New York City. He was charged in New York City courts (Brooklyn, Queens, and Manhattan) on counts of felony criminal mischief, possession of graffiti tools, and X., all relating to a search performed on his home in New York City in late 2006.

Alain Maridueña's arrest had come in the context of a growing anti-graffiti sentiment in city government due to the growing gentrification of New York City and as part of the Mayor Bloomberg's quality of life push, one started by former Mayor Rudy Giuliani. Alain's arrest appears to be politically motivated attack for his involvement with Marc Ecko and Ecko's successful lawsuits against the city of New York in order to hold a graffiti event and repealing a spray paint sales ban to 18 year olds. Many consider the charges against Alain excessive.

Alain's court cases are ongoing and his family and friends will be raising funds to pay his legal defense, setting up public events to educate people about the incarceration of artists, and providing financial, logistical, and legal support to Alain throughout his proceedings.

Ok- now back to the regularly scheduled nonsense, well leave you with a few more specimens of masculinity.
"I just want a woman who can get down and bowl!"

And last but not least, I recently got word that the first season of The Fall Guy is now available from Netflix.
Im not entirely positive, but I may have just died and gone to Heaven.
Jody, Colt, Howie and Jack stare holes into my souls.
