The Men of Martha’s Vineyard

August 27, 2010 by

Laying on South Beach enjoying the sights.

Of course for every one of these pictures I have to act like I’m taking Lynn’s pic. Or we walk around holding our phones out trying to “get reception”.

Lynn almost got run over by these dudes because he’s standing slightly to the right.

Lynn was so close to this one he got sand in his eyes.

Ok this hottie, lunged into the water like a man running towards it, and dove in like a Merman from Atlantis….Lynn eased his way in with a 4 year old niece screaming.

Imagine this guy coming out of the water dripping wet.

“I can’t get any reception on this beach anywhere!”


I’m open! I’m open!

C. Savage Salon Opens In LA

August 16, 2010 by

Saturday marked the grand opening of C Savage Salon right here on Beverly Blvd. to become an L&A Approved Hot Spot. Up there with the likes of STK, The Riviera Palm Springs, and Boa. It’s modern, it’s new, and it’s filled with talented stylist, like the one you see here shaping Lynn’s hair. Which is actually a huge bitch to cut because it’s so fine you can see every snip. The finished product….

VIOLA!! Lynn as vampire sheriff Eric Northman’ish.

Meet Corey Savage the new owner. He’s single, he’s stylish, and quite the entrepreneur. Corey is also a wardrobe stylist who has done music videos for Robin Thick, and the Pussy Cat Dolls. Oh what? Now you care? Me too! We are such name whores!

Fun facts we found:

-Used to be STEAM Salon.
- Cory Savage gutted the Moroccan look, replacing everything down to the baseboards.
-Corey bought the salon and completed a full scale remodeled in six months.
- Corey ripped out a false roof to give the salon a more loft like NY feel.
- Been in business for over nine years.
- Bumble & Bumble products
- I heard they have drinks in the back… alcoholic drinks.
- Tip: add on a scalp massage, Alex loved it.

The day ended with a much needed night party to celebrate, hosted at The Abbey with the Bacardi flowing. I love a haircut and a party. I really do.

Our Riviera Resort & Spa Paradise Pictures

January 31, 2009 by


L: Parker Dog’s still queen bitch at the Riviera… besides Lynn. We’re proud to report that he’s had no accidents.


A: Saturday morning was spent in the mineral waterfalls of the Buddah Lounge and spa. While moaning, I could feel myself enlightening to another mental state. I was also enlightened that the other patrons were leaving because of my moaning.

A: Why did we get a $250 dollar cabana so Lynn can blog and watch TV by the pool.


L: Poor Parker’s locked in the room!
Parker: Why aren’t you here?

DON’T HATE – We’re Off To The Riviera, Palm Springs

January 30, 2009 by

UPDATE – We’ve arrived to a breathtaking weekend! We’ll keep you posted with videos and pics all weekend because the Riviera is to die for! The hotel just underwent a 70 million dollar makeover and feels like Hollywood without the stuffy static.

We’re leaving now to spend the weekend in the brand spanking new and ultra glam Riviera Resort & Spa. It’s going to be a vay cay filled with first class features, five course dinners, and a spa menu that’s five pages long. Can you believe it?

We deserve a nice break from our Hollywood hustle but we will be back on Sunday in time to do a radio show during the Superbowl for those who hate watching it.

LAragmag Does BOA on Sunset

December 2, 2008 by

As a gay man when you here of a venue called BOA we get a whole different image of what to expect. Well, while you might not see gogo boys dancing with “their” boas you will find an intimate and well staffed steak house in the heart of Los Angeles. If you live here, you know that a GREAT steak is something hard to find… much like the new Prada pump.

We dined at BOA on the Sunset Strip right up the street from our house last weekend with our agent. It was, in all three of our opinions: fabulous! Twelve year aged Kobe filets ($60 per ounce but worth it, you can order more cheaper cuts), sides to die for, salads to kill for, and desserts that could actually kill you.

We give BOA on Sunset an A+. We will be back again… even if we have to pay. Not a bad place to book out for a private party. A small and sophisticated setting for a meal of uncompromising flavor and service. It is often hard to find both at one restaurant here in Hollywood. Be assured, BOA has everything covered. Just make sure you get a reservation. It’s popular.

Going to Vegas soon? Go to BOA Vegas and spend those winnings on some real meat… not the meat that takes your wallet and gets you arrested when she invites you up to her room. That jezebel!

Boa is fabulous. It’s an LAragmag MUST!
