Happy 2009!
Had a lovely party at the home of my friends Coop and Ruth, who always have the best guests. Many lovely chats were had, and I made my key lime pie martinis for those in the mood.

Shout-out for TLS in TransNation
Jacob Anderson-Minshall gives a nice shout-out to TLS in his 2008 Trans Year in Review:
LOGO’s reality dating show TransAmerican Love Story, in which a bevy of bachelors competed for the attention of openly trans actress Calpernia Addams, was actually groundbreaking if for no other reason than—as Andrea James (Addams’ best friend, business partner and fellow trans activist, who aided her selection) suggests—it helped “eliminate the stigma and the mystery of who dates [trans women].”

'Chasing Ghosts' on Showtime
My friend Lisa Wiegand DPd this awesome documentary about the golden age of arcade video games. In addition to having great footage from the early 80s, a moment when geeks were truly revered, the film follows up on the top-scoring guys 25 years later. If you missed it at Sundance, it’s playing on Showtime this week. Set your DVRs and prepare for a trip to a magical cringe-inducing age of yesteryear.

The shot mentioned in the trailer: The "Sgt. Peppers album cover" of arcade gaming: the 16 high-score champs on the top games from 1982.
