Hello I'm Rich Brown and this is my personal website and blog. I'm just your simple, average, down to earth, professional, out gay man and aspiring circuit boy, living in Phoenix, Arizona with a few things to say while trying to find my place among all the scary, conservative, religious nuts in this sick and twisted world.

Day in the Pool, Night in the Bars
@HOME. Since I was up all night working on some web design projects that needed to get done, namely the Red Fork Hospitality Website, Justin and I finally strolled our tired asses out of bed at around 2 PM. The Meury's showed up around 3 PM to begin the day's festivities. We broke out the ice chest, the limes, the case of Corona and headed into the pool for the afternoon.
Extreme Makover. Left, Andrea before ... Right, Andrea after. God doesn't she look even more beautiful now then ever before?
So the four of us spent the entire afternoon talking, laughing and drinking in the pool. I think we finished off a 1/2 case of Corona and broke into the case of Becks and Sam Adams. Let me remind you that no self-respecting gay household would be without at least 2 spare back-up cases of beer.
So after a long afternoon of drinking in the pool we did what any drunk group of friends would ... We went out! Woo Hoo! We started out at Amsterdam where apparently they were having a party at one corner of the bar, which I might add we didn't find out until we sat down on the leather couch where no one was sitting. After some dork and a few of his fag hags gave us the glare of death, the dork immediatly ran over with a reservation sign to hold in front of us.
"Are you part of the party?" he said all waving the sign at us.
I'm serious ... if it's your party wouldn't you know if we were in it or not. Anyway, we of course tried to play it cool and act like we didn't see the empty bottle of champaign and didn't know what the hell he was talking about, since we really didn't.
He wiggled the sign again and said "this area is reserved for a private party"
Thus I guess we were to assume we weren't allowed to sit there. But I mean seriously ... WTF ... the couch was empty, the champaign bottle was empty and how could we see the reservation sign since he had the death grip on it. Oh well, whatever bitches have your little gay party. We went outside.
Here we are on the couch before we got kicked off, and here we are outside afterwards.
Our usual outside bartender, Brian, was taking care of our every need. Before you knew it we turned around and our good friend PB Loco Anthony had decided to show up and meet us. He was at the Alanis concert earlier but had to haul Keith #2's ass home first before he came out to meet us. Don't you hate that when your friends make you drive their ass home because they don't want to go out drinking. I mean seriously, who dosen't want to go out drinking? I just couldn't imagine.
Speaking of drinking, I had a few sips of Justin and Andrea's drinks, but I decided to stop drinking because after about 1/2 a case of beer earlier in the day and almost passing out on the living room floor before going out, I felt it was wise to take a break for a while.
So following a few drinks at Amsterdam, we headed over to Charlie's. Suprise, Suprise. So after saying hello to some friends at the front of the bar we headed to the back to hang out on the outside patio in our usual spot. All of a sudden from the corner of my eye I saw this guy walking up to us whom I didn't recognize. In a quick instant I though, oh he's cute why's he coming over here ... so I turned around thinking who the hell is this ...
"OH ... Hi Darin!"
I've never actually saw him with his glasses on but he pulled it off nicely. I think guys with glasses are hot, but I digress here. Ok so anyway, Darin was there with his cute little friend Donny, whom I might add I've never met in person but have chatted with online a few times before, and have read about in Darin's blog. Also, one of Justin's co-workers, Tony and his friend stopped over to say hello and make us all wonder what it was in which he was a pro. One can only wonder.
Donny and Darin, and Justin's co-worker Tony (Black T-Shirt) with a friend.
The boys ... we're only missing Kevin here! A cute pic of Donny, Mark & Andrea.
So then behind us a fight started when this kid decided to hit this girl in the face and give her a nose bleed. His friends came over and her friends came over, everyone started screaming, oh the drama. Go home people, this is a gay bar for gods sake. We don't do these things here. I wanted to go over and take some photos of the little event, but opted not too. I don't know what happend to them as I turned around and they were all headed to the front of the bar, maybe to go outside and duke it out, who knows.
So once again it was another fun filled day and exciting evening out on the Phoenix scene with a good time had by all. And last but not least my gentle readers, I know that you may not be ready to handle this one, but I just had to include it anyway. If you have a weak stomach you may want to close the browser before you get to this next photo because let me tell you my little peter eaters, it's not a pretty sight at all. Put the kids to bed, turn off the lights and scroll down to view this horrific sight ...
That's Darin trying to woo the women over at the bar with a display of his skilled tounge abilities. Thank's Darin for the lovely visual, that's hot! Ta Ta for now kiddies.
That's right, poodles. I'm doing my best impression of how to eat a Twat Waffle. It's not just for breakfast anymore.

Hi Rich!
I'm gonna steal a picture for my blog, hope that's OK. My Amsterdam co-workers album is missing any pix of Bryan. I miss him, and (almost) everyone else there. Just don't miss the mismanagment.
But anyway, it was so nice chatting with you the other night. We MUST go out sometime. Maybe for dinner or a bar.. but not "A" bar. I'm still boycotting.
Hey... isn't that the same guy I saw at the gay Safeway? Looks like him. I should have said hi. But he looked in a hurry.
So what's up with Darin's hat? Looks like he's hidin' something. No?
Anyway... drop me a line sometime, or post to da blog.
