MoPod Show 2.1 - Gay Comedy Podcast

I thought about writing an even longer entry this time just to harass Ruphus.  I don’t think it will really turn out to be as long as the last one, but I will write as much as I can.  Some highlights from this past weekend include a dinner, a demon, a drink, and a Denise.  

First was the dinner.  I went to Texas Roadhouse, which I have decided to call Texas Roadkill or Texas Road Whore.  I kind of prefer Texas Road Whore, it is a little less expected.  Anyways, I went there with a friend “Mo-Problems”.  There was an unexpected wait of about 40 minutes, which was surprising since it was only 5:30.  Once we got seated we were immediately given some bread and butter, that kept getting replenished.  On top of that were enormous portions of food and never ending soda refills.  I guess everything is really bigger in Texas.  After that meal I had a Texas size food baby gestating in me that felt as if it would burst out through my front much like an alien.  Thankfully, that did not happen.  I probably won’t go back since it seemed more about quantity and not quality…although, it was a lot of food for the money. 

Next was the demon.  I went to see Hellboy 2:  The Golden Army.  I was excited to see this move since I think Guillermo Del Toro is brilliant.  Visually, this was an amazing movie.  There were also some great parts.  The story, however, was a little all over the place and I felt too much was being forced into one movie.  Mo Problems had actually fell asleep during part of it….I didn’t think it was that terrible.  I do usually like Selma Blair and look forward to seeing her in the American version of Kath and Kim.  The Australian show is awesome. 

The next item on the list was a drink.  I went out for drinks on Saturday night with Mo Problems.  We went to our normal bar, and my favorite in Omaha, Flixx.  It is a smaller bar, but I like it.  There are actually windows in this bar…..I know, a lot of queens would prefer a dark corner, but I like the windows.  The people who work there are also very nice.  I noticed an attractive bar tender when we first walked in.  Later, he revealed these large “bear” paws on his chest, one on each side over his pecs.  I could only think that Ruphus should be here…he’d love it (although I have to admit, it was nice to look at).  We also met a guy that came over to our table.  I cannot remember what he said his name was, but he kind of reminded me of Crispin Glover…I think I will call him Crispy Queen.  He actually seemed rather eccentric, but kind of cool at the same time.  As the bar filled up, it became more and more apparent something was different.  It was the smoke…there wasn’t any.  Omaha bars are now smoke free.  The evening ended with a game of spot the Kevin Dillon.  If you have read the previous posts, you may have seen the picture of Kevin Dillon with his Lesbian look.  The game is to find Lesbians with the same hair do, or that look similar to him in that movie.

Lastly, was the Denise.  A friend of mine got me an autographed picture of Denise Crosby.  He even had her sign it “To Peasha-with love”  As a sci-fi geek and lover of Star Trek the Next Generation, this is definately something I will treasure. My friend also told me that when he asked her to sign it to Peasha, she repeated “Peasha” back in a hesitant tone.  This made me think of a favor I would like to ask of anyone willing.  Next time you are at a sci-fi type convention, and see Denise Crosby, ask her to autograph something to Peasha.  I wonder if she will start to think it is some sort of conspiracy…….
