A sterling example of my favorite kind of physique!

Zdenek Routa by Joe Weber


The square of pseudo-shag carpet is a hallmark of Weber's photography.

Sven Holm and David Knight by Dick Falcon


Many of the men photographed by Dick Falcon -- including these two -- gained wider popularity when they were shot by Falcon's fellow photographer, Walter "Champion" Kundzicz.

"Corner of Carl's Room" -- early 1900s




A photo that was recently sold by the eBay dealer "Gargantua" along with two enlargements -- a true bachelor pad (note the motto "Don't Marry")!

simply stunning!


I think this one is by Russ Warner. His face is just-so-slightly out of focus -- he must have barely moved just as Russ snapped the shutter! I'd love to find a full-length shot of this wonderful model.

"Shining Light" by Annie Lennox

One of the greatest voices in rock is back with a new song, so uplifting --!

With thanks to one of my favorite men, Will Clark, on whose blog I just found this!

The Man With the Million Megawatt Smile


Who else but Dick Dubois?
Photo by Bob Mizer!

Good night, guys!

Pat Burnham by WPG


Pat must rank as one of Don Whitman's greatest models. Whitman is justly famous for his outdoor photography, but by no means was he a slouch in the studio, as this beauty demonstrates!

Noel Peters by Champion


"National Geographic," huh? And I'm sure he keeps it by his bed to read the articles...

Kim Fox by Bruce of LA


One of my fantasy boyfriends...!

Herding Cats (2000)

The ESPN website places this commercial at #9 in their list of the best Superbowl commercials. I've had a soft spot for this one from the first time it was shown, and through the miracle of YouTube, I just saw it again for the first time in 9 years. I hope you get a kick out of this month's LOLcat!

Good night, guys!

For a good time, read Carrie...


Nothing to do with vintage here...

I learned from the AMERICABlog site tonight that famed actress and writer Carrie Fisher has just started a blog. While 99% of the world will always remember her for being Princess Leia in "Star Wars," I have always enjoyed her appearances in such films as "When Harry Met Sally" and "Soapdish" (not to mention "The Blues Brothers"), and her fiction and non-fiction writings are very open about her travails through life. The first few entries at her site were very much worth a read -- very real and very funny!

Just thought I'd pass this along to my buddies -- For a good time, read Carrie!
