The status of this weekend's road trip to Las Vegas is now unambiguous. Kathryn's doctor this morning ordered her to spend the weekend in Las Vegas. Sweet! I'll submit a health insurance claim when we get home. Continue reading Las Vegas road trip status update
Road trip to Las Vegas appears to be happening
It's been touch and go this week.
Kathryn and I have a tradition of road tripping to Las Vegas the weekend before Christmas. We've been doing it since 2007.
However, since last weekend, the trip has been growing increasingly uncertain. A certain family health issue — I don't want to elaborate right now — has been threatening to interfere with the trip. Continue reading Road trip to Las Vegas appears to be happening

Richmond, Virginia: Splurge at the Jefferson Hotel
I don't often splurge on hotels. It just seems like a poor use of my travel budget. As long as a room is reasonably clean, reasonably located, and reasonably priced, I'm happy. It's rare that I spend more than $100 a night for a room in all but the world's most expensive cities. In the United States, the major three-star chains are more than adequate. Continue reading Richmond, Virginia: Splurge at the Jefferson Hotel
I usually pack shoelaces
I like to travel light. The easiest way to travel light is to limit the amount of footwear I pack. I typically travel with at most two sets of footwear. More often than not, it's just the one set I'm wearing when I leave the house. This one set of footwear is often a pair of well worn hiking shoes. If any part of such shoes is going to fail, it's most likely the laces. I've found this out the hard way. Continue reading I usually pack shoelaces
Bottoms Up Pizza
When Kathryn and I arrived in Richmond last Saturday, we were hungry. Food on the plane is a ripoff nowadays, and our layover in Charlotte was too short to grab a meal. After we picked up our bag and rental car, we drove straight to Bottoms Up Pizza. Continue reading Bottoms Up Pizza
Seeing Virginia again for the first time
Kathryn and I recently returned from a long weekend in Virginia. I lived in several cities in Virginia for a total of about 13 years. Kathryn had never seen Virginia at all. We felt it was important to make sure the trip was new for both of us. In view of that, I've created the following list of things we did for the first time together.

Puerto Vallarta: Running the gauntlet at the airport
Prior to our recent trip to Puerto Vallarta, I hadn't arrived in Mexico by air since a 1989 vacation to Ixtapa with my parents. So, in stark contrast to my previous experience, I was pleasantly surprised to see Puerto Vallarta has a clean, modern international airport terminal. Complete with air-conditioned jetways, no less. Continue reading Puerto Vallarta: Running the gauntlet at the airport
Puerto Vallarta: Getting around by bus
Kathryn and I recently spent seven days in Puerto Vallarta. Other than the rides between the airport and our resort, we did not use a taxi once. All our travel around Puerto Vallarta and the surrounding areas was on the local buses. Continue reading Puerto Vallarta: Getting around by bus
Safely home from Mexico
Kathryn and I arrived home safely from Mexico yesterday evening. I'll continue posting updates until I've run out of stories from the trip. More photos are coming too.
Puerto Vallarta: Day trip to Sayulita
An update from Puerto Vallarta on Friday, morning in Mexico.
Kathryn and I decided to take a day trip yesterday to Sayulita, a village on a small bay some distance north of Puerto Vallarta. We traveled there by bus, one of the ones the locals use. I'm not sure how long the ride was, maybe a bit over an hour. The trip there and back only set us back 100 pesos for the two of us, so it was a cheap excursion, at least for the transportation. It was a different look at Mexico and an interesting change of pace from Puerto Vallarta. Continue reading Puerto Vallarta: Day trip to Sayulita
Puerto Vallarta: Much ado about nothing
An update from Puerto Vallarta on Wednesday, dinner time in Mexico.
Well, after all the preparations, Hurricane Juvo was a bust. Kathryn got some internet time today to track the storm. It has already passed us and has been downgraded to a tropical depression. The employees of the resort, who just this morning were bracing for the worst, have already brought back the chairs and umbrellas around the pool area, and it looks like dinner service will take place by the ocean as normal. Continue reading Puerto Vallarta: Much ado about nothing
Puerto Vallarta: Still awaiting Juvo
An update from Puerto Vallarta, Wednesday morning in Mexico.
We've been gearing up for Hurricane Juvo since Monday, but it's taking its sweet time getting here. When we left the U.S. on Saturday, it was forecast to hit Puerto Vallarta directly Monday evening. Hurricanes are unpredictable though. The latest report is it'll come ashore as a category-three hurricane much further south in the state of Jalisco, then follow the coast north toward us, probably having weakened to a tropical storm by then. That should happen this evening. Continue reading Puerto Vallarta: Still awaiting Juvo
Puerto Vallarta: Weathering the storm
An update from our vacation in Mexico, Monday noon.
We knew before we left the States that a hurricane was looming off the Pacific coast, and the forecasts at the end of last week were that the eye would pass over Puerto Vallarta this afternoon. We can't seem to find a weather report on the television, but folks we've talked to seem to think the storm is now tracking south of here. Continue reading Puerto Vallarta: Weathering the storm
Going places: October edition
Out of an abundance of caution, I've declined in years past to divulge the details of upcoming travels. Unfortunately, being too tight-lipped has caused me to miss some opportunities, like meeting up with friends traveling to the same places. So I'm going to open up a little and provide an overview of the plans Kathryn and I have for the next few months: Continue reading Going places: October edition
Confession at St. Peter's Basilica
During our trip to Rome earlier this year, Kathryn and I recognized how long it had been since we'd last received the Sacrament of Reconciliation, or Confession, or Penance, or whatever the Church is calling it this year. Far too long. The gift of the Holy Father's blessing at the General Audience earlier in the week, and the possibility we would receive it again after praying the Angelus on Sunday, increased our desire to receive the sacrament as soon as possible. Continue reading Confession at St. Peter's Basilica
The opposite of a travel photo
What's the opposite of a travel photo? A photo you take while sitting at home in front of your computer. I captured this sunrise over Phoenix this morning by rotating my swivel chair 90 degrees to the right. Continue reading The opposite of a travel photo

Incomparable sunrise at Shaw Butte
It was another beautiful morning in Phoenix. I arrived at the trailhead for the Loop at Shaw Butte at 5:48 am, and the temperature was 68 degrees. Continue reading Incomparable sunrise at Shaw Butte
Wasted opportunity
I wrote off any chance of getting out for a hike in the early morning today because I had a 9 am meeting scheduled with my team lead. So what did I find when I arrived at work? An e-mail from the team lead telling me he'll be out sick today. It was a perfect 73 degrees this morning. An opportunity wasted.
Another beautiful morning
It would be another beautiful morning for a hike in Phoenix. After two mornings of hiking the Loop at Shaw Butte, though, I think I'm ready for a break. My knees are a bit wobbly today.
Favorite Phoenix urban hikes: The Loop at Shaw Butte
This summer was one of the hottest on record in Phoenix. When enduring the scorching heat of June, July, August, and even into early September in the Valley of the Sun, it can be easy to forget what's here to enjoy the rest of the year. Fortunately, mid-September rolls around every year and reminds us we have eight to nine months of nearly endless outdoor possibilities in front of us.

Germany: Any reason to celebrate in Monheim am Rhein, Cologne, and Düsseldorf
I arrived in Paris six days ago and spent a couple nights there. I didn't do much in Paris that I haven't done before. Mostly, I just enjoyed being there, sitting in cafes, walking through parks, and so forth. The only new thing I really saw was the museum of the police prefecture, which actually I didn't find very interesting, aside from an exhibit of some of the firearms used during the Liberation.
I left Friday morning by train for Cologne, Germany, where I planned to visit a friend of mine, Christian, who lives near there. I had planned to spend the morning in Paris, but after speaking to Christian by phone, it seemed like it would work out better with his schedule if I arrived in the mid-afternoon. The rail line between in Paris and Cologne is a mostly high-speed line called Thalys, so the trip took less than four hours, with only a few intermediate stops. Continue reading Germany: Any reason to celebrate in Monheim am Rhein, Cologne, and Düsseldorf
Mission San Xavier del Bac: White Dove of the Desert, Tucson
During our recent weekend trip to Tucson, Kathryn and I took an opportunity to visit Mission San Xavier del Bac, just outside the city. As luck would have it, there was a Mass scheduled there Saturday morning. It was to celebrate the 366th birthday of Fr. Eusebio Kino, the Jesuit priest who founded the mission way back in 1692. So we made sure to schedule our visit to coincide. Continue reading Mission San Xavier del Bac: White Dove of the Desert, Tucson
Sonoran hot dogs at El Guero Canelo in Tucson
A couple years ago on one of my other blogs, I wrote about my first experience eating Sonoran hot dogs in Phoenix. I had first read about Sonoran hot dogs in an in-flight magazine on US Airways, but the article was about Tucson, not Phoenix. Since then, I've been looking forward to an authentic Sonoran hot dog in Tucson. The time arrived on a recent weekend trip. Continue reading Sonoran hot dogs at El Guero Canelo in Tucson

Montpellier, France: Donating blood at the Place de la Comédie
On my way out to do the shopping this morning, I was walking across the Place de la Comédie, and I noticed a sign that there were blood collections going on. I hadn't given blood since I was seventeen years old, and I hadn't actually tried since September 11 last year, when I was turned away because of the crowds. I wasn't in a particular hurry, so I figured I could kill an hour or so giving a pint. Continue reading Montpellier, France: Donating blood at the Place de la Comédie

The English woman on the train from Ljubljana to Salzburg
I've been reviewing a lot of my old travel blog posts recently and sharing the more interesting ones on Facebook and Twitter. While doing this, I noticed a glaring omission on my part. There was a story I never told because, at the time, I was so embarrassed by my naivete with respect to the opposite sex. It happened five years ago this week, in August 2006.

St. Peter's Basilica: You are Peter, and upon this rock I build my church

We were in need of a good workout, so we passed up the elevator and took the stairs. Continue reading St. Peter's Basilica: You are Peter, and upon this rock I build my church
General Audience with Pope Benedict XVI

Apologies for the long delay
I want to express my apologies for the long delay in producing posts about our trip to Pennsylvania and Rome. It seems like there haven't been enough hours in the day for me recently. I've prepared several pages of notes on paper, and I'll try to get everything online before the rest of my memory fades. Thanks for your continued patience.
False start: Who needs money?
Our 2007 trip to Europe started with a flight from Phoenix to Phoenix. The aircraft we boarded to begin our journey had a mechanical problem just after takeoff. However, it had too much fuel to land safely, so we circled west of the airport for about an hour before landing. We then rescheduled a later flight. Continue reading False start: Who needs money?

Packing carefully: Is one suitcase enough?
Several weeks before our trip, Kathryn and I began negotiating how much baggage we would bring. I wanted to pack light, especially since we would be using public transportation in Rome to transfer between the airport and our guest house. I insisted we could share one small suitcase. She, on the other hand, wanted to travel with more options. She thought we should bring one suitcase each. The difference in price wasn't really a factor. The extra piece would cost us $25 more on the Phoenix to Philadelphia leg of the trip, but it would be free on all the international segments. Continue reading Packing carefully: Is one suitcase enough?
New format for my travel tales
My wife Kathryn and I recently returned from a ten-day break in our daily routine. First, we spent three nights in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, for the wedding of a very good friend of mine.

Sunday Mass at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels
Sunday was the final day of our trip to Los Angeles, and it wasn't really supposed to be much of a day for us. The plan was to get up early, pack up our things, find a place to attend Mass, and make the long drive back to Phoenix. Continue reading Sunday Mass at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels
Great day in Los Angeles
For the most part, Kathryn and I slept pretty well the first night in L.A. I was woken up by a bit of noise around the pool area at midnight, but I got back to sleep pretty quickly. What woke me up was the sound of a beer bottle hitting the ground. Luckily it didn't break. The managers must have given the folks a talking to, because they drank from cans the following night.
We woke relatively early Saturday, around 6:30 or so, knowing we had a big day in front of us. We had a light, early breakfast at the hotel, mindful of the fact we'd be attending Mass later. The breakfast served was what a lot of hotels now refer to as deluxe continental, which means continental plus a waffle iron. Kathryn and I shared a waffle and each had some cereal and something to drink. After heading back to the room to shower and dress, we got in the car and headed over to St. Francis. Continue reading Great day in Los Angeles
Pilgrimage to the City of the Angels (1/3)
I haven't updated my blog with any good travel tales for quite some time. However, Kathryn and I managed to pack a lot into our 60-hour road trip to Los Angeles last weekend, so I figured it was time for a new post.
When I sit down to write a new post, I often have the title in my head before the text. The word pilgrimage came to mind right away. Although I was a little hesitant to use it at first, I think it's appropriate here. The timing of the trip was chosen to allow us to witness one of the friars from our church make his profession of solemn vows into the Franciscan order, as well as to support our choir, which would be singing at the mass. Los Angeles, a city named after Our Lady of the Angels of the Portiuncula, the place where the Franciscan movement began, seems like a particularly fitting place to celebrate such an event, especially in a church named after St. Francis. Continue reading Pilgrimage to the City of the Angels (1/3)
Home from New York City and then gone again to Portland, Oregon
I'm back on the road again after enjoying three nights of sleep in my own home. Actually, that's not quite true. I spent one of those night's at Kathryn's place. I'm aboard a flight to Portland, Oregon. I have about an hour until landing, so I thought I should take a few moments to catch up on my blog.

The global rate-rigging scandal rocking the banking industry escalated yesterday as state-backed Royal Bank of Scotland suspended a trader for allegedly attempting to fix another key rate.
RBS has already warned that is likely to face a huge fine as it is sucked into the Libor-fixing scandal which cost Barclays £290m. But it emerged that the bank has suspended a trader in Singapore for allegedly trying to fix so-called dollar swap offered rates to benefit his position. Chong Wen Kuang is thought to be the first RBS employee to be suspended or fired for allegedly attempting to fix a rate other than Libor.
RBS fired four traders last year for rigging yen and Swiss franc Libor rates and suspended a further two, who have since been reinstated. A spokesman said investigations into the setting of Libor and other rates was "ongoing".
The Financial Services Authority has set out plans for an overhaul of the Libor system. Responsibility for publishing the rate will be stripped from the British Bankers' Association, while submitters will have to be approved by the FSA. The rate will be based on transactions rather than bank estimates of borrowing costs.

Banyan Drive management to be discussed today
By TOM CALLIS
Tribune-Herald staff writer
Should the Banyan Drive resort area be transferred to Hawaii County?
The state Senate's Ways and Means Committee will consider that question today when it takes up a bill that would make the county the landlord for the nine hotel properties.
The lands are currently owned and managed by the state Department of Land and Natural Resources but some lawmakers have expressed frustration by the deteriorating quality of the facilities.
Other proposed remedies have included establishing a new community development district for the area or a partnership with the Public Land Development Corporation.
Forming an independent Banyan Drive district has failed to gain much traction over the last few years. A bill to form such a district that was introduced this year is expected to die in committee.
The PLDC is being considered for repeal, leaving that agency as an unlikely solution.
Senate Bill 1361, introduced by state Sen. Malama Solomon, D-North Hawaii, is the first to propose transferring the lands to the county.
If approved by the Legislature, the bill would mean about $800,000 in annual lease revenue for the county, which would also be responsible for negotiating land leases.
But the goal of transferring ownership, Mayor Billy Kenoi said in his testimony to the committee, is to be an active manager of the lands in order to improve an area that helps fuel the East Hawaii economy.
Kenoi wrote he believes the county is in a better position to meet those obligations, including ensuring that tenants comply with the terms of their leases.
He cited the situation at Naniloa Volcanoes Resort as an example of what has gone wrong.
The hotel filed for bankruptcy last year after securing a lease from DLNR seven years ago. It has seen little improvements since the acquisition and remains underutilized.
"Enormous effort has been invested in bringing direct flights to Hilo to boost the East Hawaii economy, yet the lingering problems at the Naniloa jeopardise all of the progress that has been made," Kenoi wrote.
DLNR Chair William Aila has wrote in opposition to the proposed transfer, noting the agency uses the revenue to help manage its many acres of public land.
He noted lease agreements are being negotiated to include substantial investment in the properties and that the Hilo Hawaiian Hotel has proposed making $5.4 million in improvements.
"There is no explanation in the bill as to how the county will better be able to manage the properties," Aila wrote.
Five of the nine Banyan Drive leases will expire in 2015.
Rep. Mark Nakashima, D-Hilo, Hamakua, said the state Office of Planning may help DLNR with developing a master plan for those properties, rather than simply leasing to the highest bidder.
Relying on the bidding process alone doesn't always produce the best results, said Nakashima, who used Naniloa as an example.
Nakashima introduced the bill to form the community development district, which, if approved, would be responsible for creating a development plan for the area.
He said the bill was sent to the wrong committee, but could be revived by being tacked onto other legislation sent over from the Senate.
SB 1361 was initially incorrectly written to transfer Banyan Drive — the road, not the area —to the county.
The county already owns the road and Solomon's staff attributed the error to miscommunication.
The Water and Land, and Public Safety, Intergovernmental and Military Affairs committees amended the bill Feb. 13 to accurately reflect the proper intent.

The washing machine repair man came this week to fix the Hoover, one-year-and-one-month-old and out of warranty.
Parts are free for five years but labour is not, so when the thing suddenly sounded on the spin cycle like the Hadron Collider, we made some calls. As the one-year warranty was up, the only thing we could do was take out insurance there and then, at a cost of around £130. This, we were told, would pay for the labour, call-out and also protect us in future.
It took nearly three weeks to be fixed. In the interim, I have been running across the road with baskets of dirty laundry, diving into my neighbour's house to use her machine while she was away. But there are only so many times you can avail yourself of such kindness. So, in the meantime, the washing has piled up. And this week, the Grigg household resembles a Chinese laundry.
The repair man came from Hoover Candy on Tuesday. He was very sweet, with a lovely Westcountry accent and one of those rotund bodies only a Weeble wife could love. He took an-hour-and-half to do the job and at one point the washing machine was an empty shell. He told me I'd been given a new front and had about £300 worth of parts. He said it in a way that made me feel like I should be grateful.
It would have been more cost effective for the Hoover Candy people to give me a new washing machine.
When I asked him what could be done about the slight damage to the outer casing just below the door, which was caused by the bolt shearing off inside, he just shrugged.
"The protective coating has started to chip off and I'm worried it might go rusty,' I said.
'It won't go rusty,' he assured me, cheerfully. 'Only if it gets wet.'
It's a washing machine. Wet things come out of washing machines.
'Have you got any white nail varnish?' he said.
Do I look like a Chav?
'Well, paint, then, or Tippex, that should do it.'
The thing I am most annoyed about is not how I blithely said: 'Oh, um, OK then', but what happened next.
On his way out to the van, he pointed to the doorstep.
'I've left a big load of cardboard there, is that all right love?' he said. 'I can't carry it in the van. Oh, and yes, a piece of concrete.'
'Thanks very much,' I said, with no hint of sarcasm.
If I'd had quicker reactions, I would have picked up the ruddy concrete block, hurled it at him like a boomerang and knocked the bastard out.
But then Weebles wobble but they don't fall down.
That's about it.

Digital Capital Week (http://www.digitalcapitalweek.com) is a 10 day festival in Washington DC focused on technology, innovation and all things digital in our nation's capital. The mission of Digital Capital Week is to strengthen the capital region's digital economy via a 10 day series of events focused on creativity, technology, entrepreneurship, marketing, content creation, and innovation.
As part of the celebration, we're connecting non-profit organizations and changemakers throughout the city to pro-bono consultants who can lend expertise and help with projects that can be completed within the Digital Capital Week as well as more long-term skill building projects. Larger scale projects will be completed throughout the week and consulting sessions will also be held in a pro bono consulting lounge event on Wednesday June 16th - DC WEEK's Gov and Org 2.0 day (http://dcwgovorg.eventbrite.com).
If you have a project you'd like to get help on you can submit your Pro Bono Consulting Project idea at http://bit.ly/dcwnpconsulting
We will connect volunteers with projects that match your expertise. Many projects will be completed on Wednesday June 16th during our pro bono consulting lounge event at 900 Massachusetts Avenue NW while some larger projects will be completed at other times throughout the week.
Fill out the volunteer application below and you'll be matched with an appropriate project. An organizer will be in touch with you.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I refused to blow, but did very well on the sobriety test. I was always told not to blow so i refused and was taken to jail. My jail bond is 900 and I don't know what it will cost for the refusal ticket if found guilty. Can you give me some details on what happens? Also what the difference is between a DUI and a refusal DUI?
Refusal cases are very defensible but you need a good lawyer in Oxford...try to get in touch with Dwight Ball he is the dean of the DUI defense bar in North Mississipi.
Judge Ball (as we all called him in college) has been doing this a long time for sure. However, he does charge for his services.
DUI refusal does not have a fine associated with it. It is just an administrative suspension of your driver's license for 90 days. You will get a letter in the mail (to your address on your license) giving you 10 days to file an appeal. Chances are, you'll notice that by the time you got the letter your 10 days are up. So if you want to fight the refusal, you have to get on it immediately.
The DUI itself, is another problem. You are facing about an $800 fine (you can call the court clerk and she can tell you the exact amount), you'll lose your license for 90 days (in addition to the refusal 90 days....6 months total), you'll have to attend a MASEP class ($150...4 days/1 day a week), and you'll have to pay a reinstatement fee ($125). Depending on the Court you are in, you may also have to do probation (monthly fee).
DUI's are mostly what I do (along with other criminal defense work in North Mississippi) You can reach me at 662-647-3888.
The state of Mississippi does not certify lawyers in any specific category of law and the decision to hire an attorney should be taken only after careful consideration. Jeff Padgett's profile and any answers to questions given is strictly for the purpose of advertising his services.
I was told all in all total legal costs for a DUI would end up being 8,000-10000 Dollars. Is that even worth it? Should I just wait and be appointed a free lawyer in court and hope for the best? I have never had a ticket before this, and have never gotten into any trouble. University police arrested me, if that makes any difference.
I think that figure is a little high even if you factor in added costs of insurance, fines, etc. over a period of 5 years which is how long a DUI stays on your record. I would talk to another attorney. Both Kevin Frye and I are qualified to handle your DUI defense, and I doubt we charge as much as you've been quoted.
The fine will vary depending on what agency arrested you - i.e. the Oxford Police, University Police or Highway Patrol. A refusal DUI simply means that in addition to potential criminal penalties if found guilty, you will also have your license administratively suspended for 90 days for refusing to submit to the breath test.
Advice not to take the breath test is generally good advice, and your case is likely more easily defended because of your decision. My suggestion is that you hire an attorney, though I would suggest that you ask around and find someone recommended by your friends.

Tumblr may be the greatest time sink ever invented. You can lose yourself in communities devoted to your favorite shows, movies, bands and stars. It's also a gay mecca, combining humor, news, hot guys, and yes, lots and lots of porn. Part of the joy of Tumblr is its randomness. Depending on who you follow, scrolling through your Dashboard can yield Pokemon, naked models, and the lyrics to your favorite song in one twist of the wheel. You never know what might pop up.
We've compiled a list of our favorite gay interest Tumblrs for you to follow covering the breadth of what the system has to offer. Well, most of the breadth. Due to our charter, some excellent Tumblrs that have nudity and R+ related content didn't make the cut. But finding those really isn't that difficult, and we're sure you can manage. And we bet you have favorites of your own you'd like to share in the comments.
Poison Paradise
If you're looking for the latest sexy male models, celebrities with their shirts off, and generally the hottest men in the entertainment field, this is the place to be. Fresh faces, GIFs, and beautiful people doing the things that make us lust after them, the selection ranges from Hollywood stars to runway models you may have seen but never knew their names. It's endless eye candy.
Chris Geidner
Chris has carved out a niche for himself with some of the best GLBT political reporting out there, from his time with LawDork, to MetroWeekly, and now Buzzfeed. His Tumblr will not only bring you his stories for Buzzfeed, but often the breaking news before he has time to form it into his trademark analysis. Plus, he goes places you don't generally get to, be it the White House Briefing Room to Buzzfeed Brews, and he takes you there with him, in images and words. On top of all that, Chris is one of the nicest guys in the business.
Stephen Fry
Actor, activist, comedian, and all around renaissance man, this Tumblr tends to be updated weekly, with some of the deeper thoughts behind politics, gay rights, and sometimes just expanding on online conversations he's had on Twitter. What is guaranteed is that there will be an honest, thoughtful read on a serious topic without it being like reading in college. You'll probably learn something.
George Takei
This is run by the same social media person that made George Takei's Facebook page required reading. It touches on gay rights, Broadway, television, and general internet comedy. It generally provides you with a laugh at exactly the moment you needed it, so you can get back to procrastinating about doing some actual work.
I'm With Kanye
Stacy Lambe has written for Buzzfeed, Queerty, Out and VH1, covering pop culture with an eye for the absurd. He'll have the latest on Miley Cyrus, his attempt to learn "Cups", serious interviews of celebrities, and the latest photos from his trips to the red carpet. If you want to know what's happening in the pop culture world fastest, his Tumblr is essential, and his take on it is impeccable.
Dave Holmes
Dave Holmes was one of the VJs on MTV, and since then makes a living writing, producing, and doing comedy. He'll have promotions of his shows, commentary on music, television, and gay rights. He's shown a fondness for our own snicks' Top 100 of the 80s, and called out gay media for failing to support gay artists instead of their own. He's both deeply thoughtful and wildly cynical.
Tap That Guy
Some people find this creepy, but to me it's a window on the world. These are simply snapshots of hot guys, taken in public places, in restaurants, on the street, etc. The photos flow in from users all over the world, and are tagged with the location the photos are taken. The men vary from college to middle age, all with some indefinable thing that makes them hot, even if they don't look like they could star on a show on the CW. But quite a few could.
LGBT Laughs
This Tumblr acts as a clearing house for comics, photos, eCards and all things GLBT. It generally has a humorous bent, and sometimes you see things you've already seen before, but generally the net here is cast so wide that I get several surprises each day. Sometimes it can get a little tough on some categories – there are days when it just won't let up on cisgender males, or allies who want too much credit, but generally it just stays a funny one stop shop for all things gay and happy online.
Buzzfeed LGBT
Buzzfeed LGBT is perfectly adapted to Tumblr. It seeks to get information out as visually and succinctly possible, frequently by imposing powerful quotes on images, tailored for the soundbite culture of the web while still remaining visually interesting as you scroll past. They have the hook for the reporting that gets done on Buzzfeed that makes you not only reblog, but also click thru to get the whole context. They cover Russia, marriage, the Supreme Court, and Hollywood with equal finesse, and provide a window into extensive reporting.
Yes, we're including ourselves! TheBacklot Tumblr is run by me, and I like to think I provide a good mixture of news, beefcake, quirky humor and Hollywood scoops in a timely fashion. It's the Morning Meme that never stops, and you don't have to wait for morning to read. If you're not following us, you're missing out.
So those are our favorite Tumblrs, but Tumblr is a big, growing place, and we all have our favorites. Which ones have you found that other readers of TheBacklot should know about?

Andrea Stramaccioni is on the verge of being named the new Udinese Coach, according to reports.
Gigi Del Neri had been expected to take over at Stadio Friuli this summer following Francesco Guidolin's retirement.
But after initial talks were held last week, the club confirmed that they would be looking elsewhere for their new tactician.
As such, according to Gianluca Di Marzio, they seem to have settled on Stramaccioni, who is currently in a meeting with the Zebrette hierarchy.
The 38-year-old has been out of work since May 2013, when he was relieved of his duties at Inter.
