Who you jivin’ with that Cosmik Debris?

A Pox on All Gurus! This video of a live Frank Zappa show from Sweden in 1973 is not particularly gay, but resonant in a lot of different ways. This Mother (of Invention) stares down The Mystery Man and tells it like it is. Whether it is snake-oil or salvation, spiritual hucksters are as American as…well, nevermind! “Who you jivin’ with that Cosmik Debris? Look here brother, don’t you waste your time on me!” Take home message: think for your blinking self.

John, They’re only Dancing – Marines Shake It! (Hot & Silly Video)

These two are just too cute. Barely more than kids, as soldiers usually are, they are caught in a complicated history, their own personal stories intertwined with that of their country at war. Vets, and children of vets, understand how one can despise war and still honor warriors. Many of us still carry the physical and emotional effects of conflicts long past. “It’s complicated” – as they say on Facebook. War is hell, but it is also boredom. In these media days, that’s easily taken care of with a camera and a YouTube account. The Internet is awash with interesting videos made by soldiers with time on their hands. These two mess around to Soulja Boy’s Donk. For a great Lady Gaga Telephone re-do, click here. For an interesting musical political commentary, based on a lyrical re-working of the Beach Boys’ classic Kokomo, click here.

Last of the George Wong Sexy Happy Independence Day Pics

Friend of this site George Wong passed away in June of 2011. George, who will be missed by many, was known for sending out sexy pics as holiday greetings. This was his offering from last year’s Independence Day. His pics were the inspiration for the sexy holidays featured on this site, and we have featured many of his little presents. For George’s obituary, click here. For some of our favorite (and most popular with readers!) of his sexy holiday pics, click here, here, here and especially here. Thanks, George!

Happy Independence Day! – from hot Bear artist Jiraiya…via Bearotic

Jiraiya - Independence Bear

It’s all bears all the time at Bearotic, where we found this great Independence Day Bear from Jiraiya. Lots more from this artist over there. For all your ursine needs…

Fucking Elephants! Really…

Ah, the thrills and occasional spills of exotica tourism. Animals do what they do, and DNA just wants to make more DNA. When these tourists decided to ride the elephants, they weren’t counting on the bull climbing on board!

Sights Seen at SF Pride: Cruising Sexy Big Cameras!

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

When we got the sexy new camera, we became aware of the subculture of  camera cruising. Peeps with BIG cameras check each other out. Seriously. We see each others cameras first, and only THEN the person behind it. Cruisy banter often ensues: “Yours is big, but mine is bigger!” Ahhh…the joys and terrors of scopophilia!

Sights seen at SF Pride 2011 – Boy Oh Boys! – Sexy Slide Show.

Ah, youth. Nutritious and delicious, sexy and silly. Is youth really wasted on the young? Worse ways to spend it IMO than on a sunny Sunday afternoon at San Francisco Pride. Captured with a click. Snap! For a Hot slide show of the Leather Contingent, click here. More soon.
