George Michael has found an alternative to cottaging, according to tabloids:"According to Michael’s pals, the 46-year-old hitmaker is cleverly using Grindr app to locate partners and meet them as he vacations Down Under. 'George has been using the application loads since he has been in Oz as he doesn’t know the local spots,' the Daily Star quoted an insider, as saying. The source added: 'It’s great for him as he can find out exactly where the nearest people are discreetly without having to ask around in bars where he would be recognised.' Melbourne blogger Richard Taylor said: 'Apparently George Michael ...

The house is ours!!! We found out at 5:15 today (finally) that the seller provided the HUD statement and so we get the keys. It is such an amazing relief. It is almost 5:30 now and we are halfway through South Carolia, but very happy now.Sent from Mark's iPhone.www.runningwithbluesponge.com ...

On our drive to Florida, I took a picture at approximately the place along I-95 I would be on my virtual run from DC to our house in Punta Gorda, FL. The distance it has taken me 2 and a half months to run-- about 220 miles--we drove in 3 hours. I wish I could Photoshop a picture of me running here (with a blue sponge), but don't know how to do that on my iPhone. ...

It is just after 11am and we've signed and Fed Exed the papers to close on the house in Punta Gorda (see previous post). The only thing we're waiting on is for the seller to sign the HUD statement. Once our title company receives that, Shane's mom can get the keys. There always has to be some drama. We're hoping the HUD comes through today or we can't get in the house until al least Monday. Right now, we're in the car driving in the rain south to Florida. We should get down there tomorrow afternoon--about a 16 hour drive. ...

We are all set to close on the house we're buying in Punta Gorda, FL, tomorrow! This has been the most stressful 2 weeks we've ever gone through. Everything that could go wrong has gone wrong with this house, but there seems to be a light at the end of the tunnel. Barring another unforeseen problem, we will own the house starting tomorrow. It is hard to believe that it might actually happen. We have to sign the documents and overnight them back to Florida tomorrow morning. Once they get confirmation they are sent, Shane's mom can get the ...

The Guidofy iPhone app allows nearly 50 different customizations to turn anyone into a fist-pumping Jersey Shore d-bag. It has great options to transform a regular photo into  that sophisticated Guido look by adding certain extras like: blowouts, shades, bronzer, gold necklaces and even wife beaters and abs! It’s only 99 cents. Just look at Jay Leno–douche face before, and douche face x 10 after. ...

So now another one of my ideas is already a thing. It's called "Bump" on the iPhone. It transfers info from one iPhone to another by simply bumping the two phones together. I thought of this long ago, of course I never said anything about it.You can transfer phone numbers, emails and photos. I was actually joking with someone about it last week, I said, "Too bad we can't just touch phones and have the info transferred." And they said, "You can, it's called 'Bump'!"Just like my idea of programing your DVR from your cell phone, I thought ...

Three dozen fire trucks, ambulances, and police cars converged on Hollywood & Highland a few minutes ago after a man robbed a store then leapt to his death from the third story of the shopping complex. Thairin and I were there on the scene, but I think I'll let my new boyfriend Burnz ("with a Z! 'Cuz he's a celebri-TEE!") tell the story. (iPhone video by Thairin) ...

And while we're on the topic of guidos, did you hear that guy with iPhone DJ PAULY D, exotic dancer THE SITUATION, and company will be heading to Miami to film the second season of the reality show of which I have not seen one millisecond (yes, I consider that a badge of honor)? Here's hoping that South Beach influences Pauly and The Sitch enough that the show turns into this other "Jersey Shore":The Sitch Loves Attention From Men: "I'll be honest, I like the attention. I'm flattered if ...
