Ok so...twink...a definition

Okay so...I found this on Towleroad.com and thought it was kinda funny/weird.

The gay that left BB9 apparently did some work for appears to be the gay version of Channel 1

Ok, So Rodan Is Starting To Get Nervous....It's Good For Him...

First of all, we are at 83 reviews on iTunes. And we want to add Eileen S and UberherrTX to the list of people that left us those reviews.

Now, that being said, Taffy gave you fine listeners a challenge. We need just two more reviews to make it to 85. We need those reviews by Sunday (just three days away). Should we have the 85 reviews, Rodan will show off the badonkadonk....at least one side of it.

Is it smooth or hairy, flat or bubble? wide or skinny? The only way you'll know is if you leave us those reviews....or if you sleep with him, which granted, probably is thirty or forty of you at this point....but I digress.

Oh, and if THIS isn't a motivator, I don't know what is....remember how I put in the tags of the last thank you post that I would ask Drum to show off the oft talked about balls if we got to 100 reviews?

Guess who agreed to it?
THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is a team player. :)

Ok, So To Say I Am Displeased.....

Without giving it away to those of you who have TiVOs.....
NOT strong, Heidi....not strong....

Ok, So, The Faces of PiMC REVEALED!

Taylor, Drum, Taffy, Lola...Even The Mountain Woman. We're all in this video....

Ok, So SHE'S Supposed to be 15?!?!

It's a long video, but fun to watch. And you have to love the announcer's accent...

Ok, So I'd Rather Walk On My Own Lips Than Talk Bad About Her, But....

I just started watching Paula Deen again on Food Network. Does anyone else NOT like the whole, "I'm going to have a guest co host on every week, and it is going to be some colorful southern person" thing she has going on. And what about the whole playing music behind her talking. People don't like when we have music in the background on our show, and now I see why. It's distracting. I just feel like she's gotten so big, she's losing a bit of what made her the southern gal we loved to watch a few years back.

Still, she made hamburger with an egg, bacon and a Krispy Kreme donut as the bun, so the old lady ain't all bad.

We never told you on PiMC how I gave Paula Deen a cough drop. I even have video of it! You can hear Taffy and I yell at the end of the video, "You want a cough drop!?!?" at a cooking class we took almost two years ago...

And here is video of her TAKING said cough drop, via the point of view of the Hall's Cough Drop Bag.

Now, there is a new show starting this week on the old FN, Rescue Chef. Um, if this is what the guy who rescues me looks like, there's a good chance I'm starting a grease fire in my kitchen pronto!

Ok so...A new trend?

Wedding Crashers to Wedding Trashers...

The pics are cool, but why pay all that money to ruin it??

Just sayin...

Apparently the new trend in wedding photography is to take "destructive" pictures of the bride in her dress...  um....why?  

Ok, So Many Of You Need Thanks....

It's been a while since we have thanked those of you who have left a 5 star review for us on the iTunes. And I need to remedy that immediately. Thank you to Southern Boy, TMECXG, KCinHH, Kelley-O, apj601, LUNA, ro1224, QCastCT Michael (DAH-LING!!!), Jess, 5345, Lauren K, erbear and mrmullen for your kind words.

This brings us to 81. As stated on the latest episode (see the podcast below), if we get to 85 reviews before next Sunday, we will show Rodan's butt cheek! We did it before with Taffy's breasts. See the levels we are ready to go to to get you to leave us a review. Please? Please??!? It's all I have!!!!

PiMC: Episode 48 - Our Most Offensive Episode Yet, or I'll Show You The Eiffel Tower...

Taffy is back, and she comes out swinging. We manage to offend soccer moms, dedicated workers, people in 12 step programs, Taylor's sister, the African American community and the whole country of France in this episode. We apologize. OK, Rodan and I apologize. Send your scathing remarks to podismycopilot@gmail.com.

Music: Brain Bukit: Run Rabbit/The Chase. Blog: http://www.podismycopilot.com/ myspace: www.myspace.com/podismycopilot join our group on facebook, "Ok, So, I Love Pod Is My Copilot" and call our listener line - 206-202-5165.

Leave us a review on iTunes - we are at 81. 85 by next episode gets you a picture of Rodan's right butt cheek. No, really. It's not that bad.

We don't need permission to make our own decisions...it's our podismycopilot!

As always, you can listen to this and all archived episodes at www.podismycopilot.libsyn.com.

Ok, So Tastes Like Liberty....

Another Barats and Bereta nugget.

Ok, So A Rebuttal....

The best part is in the gas station.

Ok, So I Will Probably Go To Hell For Laughing As Hard As I Did At This....

Ok so...SNL

Okay so...Goonie sent me this...and I kinda think that Tina Fey may have actually helped Hillary Clinton out of the death spiral her campaign had been headed toward.

People will be saying 'bitch is the new black' all day tomorrow.



Oh...and after the whole 'pimping' thing a few weeks ago...I sent the Hillary campaign a note expressing my opinion on the sitch...and you would think I was her best friend. I get a note every day from her, Bill or Chelsea...

There is this little red button on each of the emails...it says..."CONTRIBUTE"...I haven't figured out what that is for yet...but when I do...I'll let you know. I prefer to think of us as just close friends sharing daily emails.

message from the editor (i.e. Taylor) The YouTube video Rodan put up was taken down, but I grabbed it from hulu.com. Sorry, Mac Users, I don't think you guys can see this.

ok so...NPH made me gay

Okay so...Neil Patrick Harris didn't really make me gay...but I did have a crush on Doogie Houser when I was growing up.

I love his sense of humor



...and he and his BF are very cute...yum

Ok, so there were other things to see besides male statues...

View from The London Eye of Parliament and Big Ben.

London Bridge

Eiffel Tower

More Later...

Ok so, I am a Child...

I should never be allowed in Museums.

I should never be allowed to hold the Camera.

I am an 8th grade boy at heart.

These make me giggle.

Ok, so...Rodan can eat Lola...(so to speak)

It was brought to my attention, from a listener, that there is a Cafe'LOLA in LAFAYETTE La.

Rodan, you have homework!!!  We want you to go and eat a "Lola" and report back!! 

Ok so, London and paris stories coming soon!

That's right Kittens, I'm Back!!  The Queen says "Hello" (and no. I don't mean Taylor)  I wanted to thank Nessa for doing a lovely Job of filling in... (By the way you have the cutest laugh I have ever heard) (and I don't give compliments often) 

And one more thing...TAYLOR WATCH PORN!!!!!! Sad... The Non-catholic wins again!!

Ok so...Champions

Okay so...a few weeks after we learn that they've canceled the Marvel Universe MMO game...we learn that the company behind City of Heroes has something else up their sleeve instead.



Looks like it could be fun...and you get to create your own arch-nemesis...

So Taylor would create a Rodan nemesis and I would create a Taylor one...hmmmmmm

Ok, So Start Weeping For This Nation Now....

They'll be running things someday. Remember that.

Education, hurrah!

Ok so...Bias

Okay so...I was catching up on my 'news' today and found this little article on Towleroad.com discussing a protest against all of the anti-gay PDA bias on As The World Turns for their gay couple Noah and Luke...affectionally dubbed "NUKE".

Nevermind that I shouldn't have an opinion on the subject since I'm not a soap fan or that I'm a bitter ice queen incapable of human emotion...but that isn't going to stop me from stating my opinion...

Okay...I may be getting old...but back when I was an impressionable young twink I would have been very pleased with a gay couple that was out and served as a positive role model. I get that some people want more gay PDA, but I think CBS should be applauded for going as far as they have gone...

Be happy that a gay relationship is on a soap opera as a regular occurence and not a ratings stunt, be happy that other young gays have positive role models, be happy that gay couples are finally making their way into the bastion of old women and young mothers.

Some fans even put together the video below to prove their point...



This looks like a lot of affection to me...but I guess straight people on soaps get more nookie

Ok so...in sickness

Okay so...I'm sick.

Yes I managed to get home from Illinois on Wednesday only to quickly get sicker by late Wednesday night...so by early Thursday I could barely stand up.

TWO Days...TWO WHOLE DAYs in bed...GRRRRRRRRR

I'm starting to go stir crazy. And what is even worse...Sick Breath



Nothing is worse than being able to taste your own sick breath...ick...poor poor riley

Ok, So Because I JUST Got Done Saying I Had Lots of Stuff To Do This Weekend....

I go looking for videos of songs that are playing on my iPod.
God I love this woman. We should all be so blessed to look like this when we are her age.

Ok, So On Call Blows.

So, once again, I am tied to the work phone, waiting to get to poke dead people until Monday at 8am. It sucks, but the extra money I could make from doing this could be helpful in paying off some nagging bills I can't seem to get rid of.
Beings I will be spending most of my time at home this weekend, I have a list of shit I want to get done around here. Nothing too major. I will post the list of things I want to do here and as the weekend goes on, cross those things off the list. Is this a dumb idea? Probably, but much like the previous desk cleaning post a month or so ago, knowing I have people watching to see if I will do something helps motivate me.
Without Further Ado...Wish me Luck!

Clean my desk....again.
Wash the pugs
Finish all my charting (unless you are my supervisor and you're reading this, in which case, the charting is done!!!)
Clean out the vent for the dryer (which I hope is the reason things aren't drying, and not because I need to buy a new dryer)
Do Laundry, appliances permitting
Read more of my Cult Of Oprah Book. (more on that later)
Get three more pages of art done for a book I am working on for my job (more on THAT later, too)
Complete March artwork for the blog

Ok, So An Open Question To...Well, You Know Who You Are....

Ok, when you post a profile on ManHunt, or Bear411, or gay.com, and you say you are only looking for friends, why am I looking at a picture of your cock? Is that really necessary for us to be friends? Or do you have secret motives with your use of PhotoShop and your master of the english language?

Anyone? Anyone? Hmm?

Ok, So It's Amazing Just How Gay A Song Can Be....

I have this on my iPod. Shocking, I know.
P.S. Taffy SO has this hat...

Ok, So FINALLY....

So, today was a good day for me, work wise. I feel like I got a LOT accomplished, and was even able to get home early from visits and checking on the Huffington Household. But all that pales in comparison to what happened in my 4th (of 6) visits today.

See, I have a young man who I have been working with for over a year, on and off. This 5th grader is the type of kid that is sweet, and will probably grow up to be a heartbreaker - HUGE blue eyes, thick blonde hair - but to say he is slow would be a understatement. He lost his aunt a year ago, and some other important family when he was very young (trying not to tell too much of his story because of, you know, confidentiality and all that...) Anyway, for the last year, I meet with him once every two weeks, and for the last year, I ask him how things are going, and for the last year, I get shrugged shoulders and "fine,""ok," or "good" as an answer to everything I have talked with the guidance staff at the school, and his teachers, and they all say that they think it's important for me to stay in there with him,that he will open up to me eventually. Against better judgement, I would keep seeing him, keep playing the same games, keep asking the same questions. He didnt like art, and talking to him was difficult. So we just played UNO. Again. And again. And again.


Today I walked into the school and told the guidance staff that I would probably be closing his case after today, that after a year of trying, that I wasn't sure how much I could do for him, and that I would refer his family to a counselor who could deal with some of the other issues in his life, and then should he be ready/able, I would come back to do the bereavement piece. She agreed, and called him down to the office for me.


I had jenga with me today, instead of UNO, because I am sick of playing UNO. I have written words related to family members, emotions, places and life events on some of the Jenga blocks. If you pull a block with a word on it, you have to ask another member of the group (or when working solo with a kid, the other person at the table) a question using that word. (example: the word on the block is "questions" "Do you have any questions about the medication Mom takes for her cancer?") We played Jenga for a while - same old behavior. The tower fell down eventually (I think it was me), and the blocks went all over the table.


I'm starting to put the blocks back in their container when I realize he is using the blocks that fell in front of him to build...stuff. It's not really a tower, it's no a person, it's just stuff. He reads one of the words that was on the fallen block. Then, like someone turned a knob, he starts talking about his mom who died when he was a baby.


And talks.


And talks.


And talks.


The whole time, he is playing with the blocks and I slowly pull the blocks I had put in the containher back out onto the table, and I start playing with them next to him. I am gently asking him questions about how he feels when other kids talk about their moms, and how he hasn't told anybody that his mom is dead. He talked about how when his aunt died, she was like a mom to him, and that it felt like he's lost two moms now, and it "isn't fair." He talked about how he doesn't remember anything about his mom, and how sometimes he watches videotapes of her with him when he was a baby and "hurt my brain trying to remember when that happened, but I can't, and it makes me really sad."


Eventually, I have to send him back to class. It's the end of the day, and he needs to get his bookbag and coat to get on the bus. As he gets up, I told him that he did a great job today, talking, and I thanked him for sharing all the stuff he told me.


And for the first time since I met him, this fucking kid smiles at me when he walked out of the room.

The pay sucks, but it's on days like this that I love my job.

Ok so...bits and pieces

Okay so...

1. I'm in Illinois...Galesburg to be precise. It is 8 degrees. I have lived in Florida my entire adult life (well...until last June) this whole 'cold' thing doesn't work for me...especially since the plate in my leg reaches outside temps very quickly...do you have any idea how painfully cold a metal plate can be when it is wedged between bone and muscle. It is supposed to be 1 tomorrow.

Oh yeah...took the private jet to get here...heehee

2. I'm watching American Idol right now...and what the hell...did they pick up these kids from Creepy Kid Middle School? These are the weirdest looking people on TV

3. and yeah...I'm a Big Brother addict...but this is an interesting NSFW fight that the folks on BB had the other night...I think the gay one is bitter his partner left.

Ok, So I Can Only IMAGINE The Comments From This Peanut Gallery...

So, as I said on the latest podcast, at work we are in the beginning stages of planning out annual camp for kids who have had a relative die. It's a HUGE undertaking, and one that I look forward to every year. This will be my 7th year as a counselor at the camp, and the kids I work with never cease to amaze me. I also mentioned on the latest show that I will be working with 2nd and 3rd grade boys, and was going to be co-facilitating the cabin with a coworker of mine, Kelly.

Well, things have...um, changed.

See we are going to have some people leaving our program in the next few weeks, and another one traveling out of the country. That leaves more less "veteran" counselors running cabins, and given that some of our staff have never actually run a camp cabin before, it makes sense that thay move things around a bit. So, today, it was decided that I would stay in the green cabin, and Kelly would co-facilitate with Liz, a newbie, in the pink cabin, which is 2nd and 3rd grade girls (aka the little princesses.)

Apparently, this disappointed Kelly, who wanted to stay with the boys, citing they are easier to deal with and less high maintenance. So, after the meeting, Kelly, Kathy (my supervisor) and I all sat down to look at other options.

Five minutes later, I am being asked to run the little girl's cabin.

Five minutes after that, I'm accepting the responsibility

Five minutes still, I'm freaked out.

I will be making our camp's history as being the first male to run a female cabin in 21 years. It's kinda cool, but I am used to dealing with little boys, who think fart jokes are funny, and want to throw a ball around when we have downtime. I work with little girls all the time on a one on one basis, but to have a cabin full of them? FOR A WHOLE WEEKEND? I am excited and a bit scared of this challenge all in one breath.

Oh, and did I mention that for Friday night, I get to wear a pink t-shirt with my name written on the back of it, and a big "'08" on it (our camp theme this year is baseball.) I think I'm most excited about that!!! :)

Drum, I have your volunteer application in my car.

Ok, So I Just Wanna Hug The.....

http://ulteriorproductions.com/MANO.mov

a very funny short film. The sound is NOT SAFE FOR WORK (lots of...um, well, cursing), so if you have headphones, put 'em in, or wait til you get home to watch it!

Thanks to my friend John (aka cherryghost1) for directing me to this.

Ok, So Either You All Are Being Awfully Polite....

....or no one noticed I put the wrong number on the latests artwork for Episode 47. NOT 45. Dur. I will fix it tonight and make it available for those of you purists who want the right artwork. Because I'm that anal about that sort of thing. (And other things - honk!)

I like his pink shirt, though.

Ah, who am I kidding - I'd totally let him tag it.

Ok, So A Year And A Day Ago....

...a blog was officially born. Pod Is My Copilot (Originally to be called "Ok, So....") was created by Taylor (or as he was originally known, "Host # 1,") and was quickly joined by Taffy Carlisle Huffington and Rodan. One Thousand, Three Hundred and Forty Nine posts later, we turned a year old yesterday. 46 episodes, 16,300 requests for podcasts, and many new friends around the world later, we want to send out a thank you to all of us who gave us a shot and peek into our sick and twisted lives. You all are amazing people and we're nothing without you.

And we still have the one year anniversary of the podcast coming up in Early March!!! Leave us a birthday wish/message at 206-202-5165. We'll be putting them on our anniversary show! Be a part of the podcasting love! Rodan's had all his shots! Promise!!!

Sincerely,
The Dairy Guy, The Debutante, and The Renaissance Painter (as we were called on another podcast recently

Ok, I stand corrected...

1.	Big Montana	55 up, 7 down
	1. A roast beef sandwich at Arby's. 2. A vagina that resembles a roast beef sandwich at Arby's. (In more than just looks...) "Wow, that bitch sure does have a Big Montana between her legs." by algorhythm Mar 13, 2004 email it
2.	big montana	33 up, 9 down
	when a females vagina has large, meaty flaps. usually in a roast beef kind of color. see "beef curtains", "t bone flaps." simular to a second rate fast food chain's large roast beef sandwhich. "yo, i was with this girl last night.. she had a double serving of the big montana" by s rudiman pittsburgh Sep 2, 2005 email it
3.	big montana	20 up, 3 down
	1. The largest of the Arby's Food chain Sandwiches. 2. A vagina that is loose and has been beat up like Grace Jones; lips are brown to brownish purple and resemble premium cuts of roast beef from a locally owned deli; sometime accompanied by Horsey Sauce. That broad had a big montana, but I still ate it all. So I have never heard a woman's fa-gine looked like a roast beef sandwich...but apparently others have.   Maybe the ones you all are looking at need to be tended to.

PiMC: Episode 46 - The Big Montana

Yeah, remember when Taffy laughed during episode 7? Taylor may raise the bar (at his own joke, no less) in this episode....

Ok so...We need a hero fix

Okay so....

Somewhere...right now...Taylor is crying...

Reposted from Gamespot.com

In July 2006, Microsoft and Marvel Entertainment announced they were developing an ambitious project, Marvel Universe Online. The title was the first massively multiplayer online role-playing game designed for cross-play between Xbox 360 and Windows Vista, and the first MMORPG to feature characters from the Marvel Comics universe. As outlined in a GameSpot interview, Marvel Universe Online also marked the first collaboration between Marvel and developer Cryptic Studios after they settled a nasty legal flap over Marvel-esque characters in City of Heroes and City of Villains.

But following the high-profile announcements of 2006, the flow of information about Marvel Universe Online was shut off in 2007. Unconfirmed reports swirled that the project had been quietly canceled, even though official inquiries were greeted by Microsoft's standard refrain, "Microsoft does not comment on rumors or speculation." However, the wall of silence broke at last week's D.I.C.E. Summit, when Microsoft Game Studios head Shane Kim told GameSpot that Marvel Universe Online is permanently offline.

"Microsoft and Marvel have decided to discontinue that project," the executive told GameSpot. "It was a mutual decision." Kim did not go into further detail about the game's cancellation.
The demise of Marvel Universe Online leaves Sony Online Entertainment's even more mystery-shrouded DC Comics PC and PlayStation 3 project as the highest-profile officially sanctioned comic-book massively multiplayer game in development. (City of Heroes and City of Villains, which feature character-created superhero characters, remain online.) It also comes shortly after Marvel ended its agreement with Electronic Arts to codevelop a fighting game. The company still has longstanding agreements with Activision and Sega to develop non-MMOG games based on its iconic characters.

Ok, So They Did Another One.....

Ok so... Is it just me, or is this kinda sick...

Ok, So, Rodan, Remeber When....

We went and saw the first Mummy movie, and I turned to you in the theatre and said, "is it wrong that I think the Mummy is kinda hot?"

Watched the last 30 minutes of it this morning. I forgot what a fun movie it was.

Of course, I'm sure Rodan owns it. Nerd.

Ok so...Torn

Ok so...we at Pod is My Copilot have not yet decided to tell you who to vote for...however...as I've mentioned before...I've become terribly addicted to MSNBC.

Yesterday, as many of you have probably heard or read, one of their reporters claimed that the Clinton Campaign was 'pimping out' Chelsea Clinton. The remark was unfortunate to say the least, however, I am not sure that it was meant as a sexist comment but rather a exploitive comment.

Certainly 'Pimp my ride' hasn't been deemed sexist. I've attached a video clip of the initial remark and Keith Olberman apologizing for David Shuster's comment.





My initial reaction is that the Clinton campaign has over reacted to this mis-step. They have threatened to boycott MSNBC and any future debates involving MSNBC.

The democratic fight is reaching a fervor and I think if the campaign really wanted to resolve this situation and not just create a bigger soundbite, they would have addressed it on the air with MSNBC and had an open discussion about how it was insult to Chelsea.

What are your thoughts? Am I wrong...was this the ultimate insult or is the campaign seizing the moment to create a soundbite for the primaries this weekend.

One last note...Bill is actually in Monroe as I type this...at the BOE corporate hanger for a Hillary rally...Monroe...yes...Bill Clinton is in Monroe. Weird. The BOE actually sent out a note to all of us today saying that the appearance does not constitute an endorsement for any candidate or any political party...but urged us to vote this weekend in the Louisiana primary (or is it a Caucus here?)

Ok, So....Rescue Me, Season 1

A co-worker of mine let me borrow Rescue Me: Season 1 last JUNE, and I just got around to watching it within the last few weeks.

I liked it. I really liked it. A LOT.

The show is going to be starting it's 5th season (I think) this summer, and I am going to be working desperately to try and get all caught up before it starts. For those of you not in the know, Dennis Leary stars as a firefighter in New York City Post 9-11. While he is the main character of the show, the show is really about the firefighters and how they are clearly a family. There is a LOT of comedy in this show, but many of the conversations and arguments have a realness to them you don't normally see in television. (There is a scene early on between Leary and his estranged wife that I may have seen between my own parents around 1986.) Plus there is lots of hot guys banging girls (who I ignore), and really, who wouldn't want to watch these guys getting out of the shower in the first episode?

So, in this writer's strike wasteland of a television season, if you are looking for something fun and well written to watch, grab this show!!!
