Heard on the radio that Baltimore is having a celebration of sailors’ tattoos in Fells Point and this seemed like it would be up the alley of many an OFMD fan. If you’re in the area, it’s called Pride 2.

My sexuality is to me, what my parents’ hometown was to them.

I can tell you every celebrity that identifies as bisexual, and my mother can tell you ever celebrity that’s from Buffalo, NY.

The annual greasing of the poles for Mardis Gras.

“Now in its 49th year, “Greasing of the Poles” has earned its place in Crescent City history as a landmark experience, and is considered by many as the French Quarter’s official kickoff to Mardi Gras weekend. Royal Sonesta New Orleans originated the ritual of greasing the building’s support poles as a practical means to deter overzealous revelers from shimmying up to the coveted balcony space. Nearly five decades later, the practice has evolved into a star-studded and music-filled event, even spawning its own international fan club that faithfully hails from Switzerland each year to participate. “
