A few months ago, my good friend Gina and I had an idea for an iPhone app:
MY GAY AGENDA.
We envisioned it as a classy, understated sort of “up-yours” to Focus on the Family, and all those other repulsive organizations that claim to hold a monopoly on goodness and morality.
But we also wanted it to be fully functional and truly useful.
Above all, we wanted it to be funny, snarky and lovingly gay-centric, without being overblown. You should pardon the expression.
So we started developing the app, and then brought it to our friends at Cerebral Itch. They put it all together, and submitted the finished product to the Apple Store for approval.
And last night, it went live.
MY GAY AGENDA, my first foray into the world of iPhone/iTouch apps, is now available for purchase in the iTunes Store! Can you even believe that?
I am so excited, and very proud of the way it came out. I can’t wait to hear what you think of it. So if you have an iPhone or iTouch, go to the iTunes Store and download this baby right damn now.
A portion of the proceeds from MY GAY AGENDA will go to Project Angel Food, a non-profit organization that provides daily meals for people homebound or disabled by HIV/AIDS and other serious illnesses.

I gotta know. When Al Rantel is off air, does he sound different? For example on air he’s, “The illegal aliens are criminals, stealing from California” and then off air is it, “Oh these illegals are just sssssteaming me up to no end. Heavens to Bette Midler, they just make me sssssssooooooo mad. hmmmmph”?

If I hadn’t loved you before (and straight) I SOOOO do so now. You bring laughter and entertainment to me everyday (I listen to your old shows INCESSANTLY) and you also have such a wonderful heart. Thank you for everything you do and all the joy you bring us.

Congratulations! I just bought it, and it’s hilarious *and* useful. I’m telling everyone. You deserve to be rich.

April, this clinches it. I love you to pieces. You have compassion for other people and are funny beyond words. I’ve been listening to the old KFI shows … damn, they’re still better than anything on the air these days.

so what day of the year is ‘Shitting behind JR’s day’.
Also learn from someone else’s mistake. If you are in Chatsworth don’t make the mistake of shitting behind JD’s cowboy palace on devonshire.
First most citizens of chatsworth are not porn workers. They are drugged out rednecks. The way you can tell the difference is that the porn workers don’t have crab lice. It is not the regular people of chatsworth don’t buy bottles of Rid, they are just too stupid to use it correctly.
Also the porn workers are mostly imports , whereas those born and bred there are victims of that TRW toxic waste spill and spent their formative years smoking dope on Stoney point and falling head first onto the railroad tracks.

John Hughes at his greatest. Don’t let the subsequent Chevy Chase film dissuade you from enjoying this national lampoon classic from the 1970’s.

of course, some people wonder whether the local kids of Chatsworth can get jobs in their local industry. Just take a look at a high school annual.
Nobody wants a fluffer with a semi permanent herpes scar on their upper lip.

John Hughes was funny when he wrote for National Lampoon. His movies sucked.

Fantastic! I love great ideas.

Going off-topic…since April is occasionally focused on Gelson’s, maybe it’s worth mentioning the LeVar Burton hasn’t paid his Gelson’s bill since December, and now he owes them $2,000.

My 401k is now just $400 off from its high point. With that and the My Gay Agenda app – I am benefitting from the Stimulus package.
On my gay agenda is lowering the high cost of good quality lube. Have you priced the 16oz bottle of
Astro-Glide ?!(the official lube of Elroy Jetson…)
Its a $30 commitment to a 4 hr date night…

On the Al Rantel thing, does anyone else think it strange that Al, who is an anti-Socialist medicine Republican, is headed off to Canada to get his health care needs met? Just sayin…..

Burning bush? – aren’t there creams for that

coasterboy,
no stranger than Dr, Laura getting nude polaroids of herself taken by the married man she was having an affair with.
or rush limbaugh calling Jerry Garcia ‘just another a dead doper’ and then getting his maid to get his Oxycontin.
or Joe the plumber goping on welfare.
What’s strange is that most of their listeners know this shit and still hang on their every word.
