you should read this too

Just finished another book, Exile in Guyville: How a Punk Rock Redneck Faggot Texan Moved to West Hollywood and Refused to be Shiny and Happy, by Dave White. Yeah it's a long title for a book that I read in 4 short days. I've been reading Mr. White's blog religiously for about the last 6 months. It's entertaining. He also write movie reviews for Movies.com and writes occasionaly for other magazines like The Advocate. He also writes articles for MSNBC.com. In addition, you can frequently see him and his partner in audience shots when Kathy Griffin is doing stand up on her reality show. Evidently, they use that same shot, no matter where she is actually performing. Doing her show in Michigan, there's Dave. Los Angeles, Dave's there too and wearing the same shirt...scandolous....
Anywho, the books a hoot. It's essentially a journal of his first year of living in West Hollywood after moving from Texas. He's like David Sedaris, but a lot more edgy. My most favorite passage had me rolling, because it described an identical event that Greg and I witnessed in the waiting room on the day Michele had her last surgery. Enjoy this excerpt from the book, and then go out and buy it. It's only $13.95 at Borders.
"Another thing to do in screening rooms is clip your fingernails. This isn't nasty at all. Everyone should do it in public, carrying around little clippers in their pockets attached to their car keys. Just let the loose nail trimmings fly where they may. Dave White will find the move especially enchanting, more so if he's sitting two seats away from you and being hit by the stray bits of your DNA. When Dave White gets up to move away from you, don't bother wondering why. Continue grooming yourself. Look your best!"
