Hot Stuff

F.Y.I. it is now official: September. 22, 2009 will be the final day all across the U.S.A. for the sale of clove and flavored cigarettes, the only flavored cigarettes that will be allowed to be sold in the U.S. is regular and menthol. So if you smoke clove I suggest you purchase them now. On another note, the clove company has come out with clove filtered cigars, which they say are just as good, and these are still legal since they are a “cigar.” Antonio at To The Moon Marketplace will have samples in, so go check them out!

FGRA will have at least one function at Scandals Saloon every month starting in September, which will include membership drives, cowboy car washes, pool party, and much, much more.

 

This Is Hot

Wolfe Video’s hot late-summer DVD release, Dan Castle’s spectacular surfing drama Newcastle, hits the streets August 25th.  This fresh, exciting coming-of-age drama has an amazing young cast that includes: rising star Lachlan Buchanan as top competitive surfer Jesse (a well-known teen heart-throb in Australia, Buchanan is also the star on Season 3 of The WB series Blue Water High); talented Aussie actor Reshad Strik as Jesse’s bad-boy brother Victor (Strik is also starring in the highly-anticipated new Fruit Chan horror flick, Don’t Look Up); and young Aussie star Xavier Samuel as Jesse’s gay brother Fergus, who falls for Jesse’s pal Andy (newcomer Kirk Jenkins). 17-year-old Jesse and his brothers live in the small town of Newcastle. Rising surf star Jesse spends time chasing waves and girls and battling with his resentful older brother, Victor. Jesse’s got the raw talent to surf his way into the international circuit, but can he overcome his equally natural tendency to sabotage himself? On a getaway weekend with Fergus and his mates, Jesse learns what is really important in life. The drama plays out against the stunning backdrop of the Australian surfing scene and features spectacular cinematography. Newcastle is 104 minutes and can be purchased at WolfeVideo.com or locally at the Pride Factory!
