so i'm listening to laura flanders because we were all talking about c.i.'s air america post yesterday while we working on the third estate sunday review and which shows had any meaning for people on the left. and we all agreed laura flanders has meaning. i really should listen more but if it's a choice between radio and sex, i'll go with sex. (and i'm sure ms. flanders would back me up on that. she seems like a very sensual woman.)

and i read c.i.'s new york times post when i got up (at noon - it was an all nighter) and having my morning coffee. now i've gone through the paper and i hate to disagree with c.i., but there are some other things of interest. no, not news. but for the hormonally driven like myself ...

i've spent a half hour with the times's style magazine (men's fashion spring 2005).

note page 55 which is a full page black and white photo of ed burns. now i like ed. i think he's sexy. but 1/2 way through she's the 1, i started seeing this archie bunker thing going on. i don't mean politically. i just mean ed should really, really stay away from the carbs because he's got some carroll o'connor in him and just a little packing on of the pounds will make that obvious.
he's a hottie but 1 who better work really hard to maintain his weight because outside of edith, who wants to get in bed with archie bunker? (but i do love those hairy forearms on ed.)

check out the cutie in the kenneth cole ad on page 72. now true, he looks like he has a deviated septum. but those eyebrows and lips combined with those tina fey glasses really get me going.

a supposed football player by the name of greg hopkins, wide receiver and linebacker, comes off a little too christopher street for my taste on page 105. but for those who like their tricks and like them young, check him out.

p. 109 features what could have been a man who looks sexy but he rounds his lower back and it destroys the whole enjoyment of his nude frame.

the black eyed peas are looking their usual cool selves and p. 116 but i couldn't dwell on the photo because the facing page, p. 117, features the apparent child of william hurt and jeremy irons which is scary enough but the man seems to have gotten the worst quality from each of his 2 dads.

can urkel grow up? l.a. reid appears to answer that question on p. 118 and it's not pretty.

pp. 136 - 143 takes a look at the 'boarding school looks graduate to the urban jungle.' as near as i can tell that means edith head bangs are back - for boys.

p. 115 features tony mcleigh announcing that some sort of new-romantic-adam-ant-meets-bar-pub look is . . . not going to cut it.

lastly, p. 165 features the best photo yet. a hunky hunk with some really hot nipples - male nips are sexy! - wearing some low riding red briefs. were it not for the heavy hand used to style the hair and the intense amount of hair spray, i'd pick it as the best photo this week to pull out on a moist day.
