Next to another of our favorite fundraisers, A Toast to Toast: Raising Awareness of Bread under the Broiler, we have to say that Toast to Life is high on our list of charity events. Now in its 14th year, Toast to Life Gala benefits the HIV/AIDS programs and services of Resource Center Dallas, having raised [...]

Flashers & Grabbers
So, you’re stuck in Dallas for Mardi Gras weekend. That’s probably for the best because we all know what happens when you go to New Orleans. You end up picking up a stranger named Carlos from the Corner Pocket because he “wanted to see the inside of a fancy hotel room.” Oh wait, that’s what [...]
Rice, Rice, Baby
Way back in the early 1800s when the gay part of Dallas was just beginning to take shape, an old gypsy rolled into the hood and placed a curse on a particular spot of land after being jilted by a queen who only had eyes for her hot gypsy brother. Ever since, restaurants have opened [...]
Donut Ask, Donut Tell
If you’re gonna eat carbs, you might as well go all the way. Why eat a plain donut when you can get one topped with bacon, bananas, honey and peanut butter? Or chocolate, caramel, peanut butter, Peanut Butter Cap’n Crunch and pretzels? These are so sinfully delicious and filled with sugary goodness, James St. Peter, [...]
Your Ritzy Valentine
St. Valentine’s Day creates an interesting conundrum for the gays. Do you go all straight and cheesy with carnations and chocolate hearts? Or full-on flaming with Fleshlights and lube? We suggest neither. Instead of blowing money on something that will be forgotten by February 15 (hope you saved the receipt for that 8-foot-tall teddy bear. [...]
Pitchers, Catchers & Plenty of Balls
This weekend, we’ve decided to take an active interest in sports. Not because we’re suddenly claiming to understand their appeal, but because we’ve decided to learn everything there is to know about baseball from inside the locker room – one of our favorite places in the whole wide world. It’s all part of Take Me [...]
Shop, Then Chomp
Swiping our credit card over and over, walking from store to store, and deadlifting shopping bags is what we consider a full-body workout. And that makes us hungry. But slices of reheated pizza from Sbarro or a Flaming Frito Double Decker Supreme Grilled Steak Baja Fire Bacon Ranch Burrito at Taco Bell aren’t exactly our [...]
Make A DIFFArence
The Academy Award nominations this past Tuesday? Who cares. A movie about a maid, another one about a horse, and yet another about a baseball-loving math nerd? Where the F is Shark Night 3-D? But all that is soooo two days ago. This morning, we’re more excited about the big reveal of this year’s DIFFA/Dallas [...]
Booze & Cheers
It’s official. Handcrafted cocktails are the fastest growing trend in Dallas ever since it became cliché to poop on George W. Bush’s lawn. But that’s perfectly fine with us. If we’re gonna spend eight bucks on a cocktail, it damn sure better not be McCormick Vodka & Tonic. No, we expert more from our bartenders, [...]
Ready for Prime Time
Typically, the only time we like to see the words ALL YOU CAN EAT is when they’re on the waistband of a go-go boy’s underwear. As a population, many gays aren’t into consuming mass quantities of anything (except maybe vodka). But if we fast or fill up on salads for a few days, then watch [...]
