Hugh O'Conor

I don’t watch Tv, so alot of stuff just passes me by lol. But, there’s a cool ad on at the mo I hear. Starring one of my favorite actors, Hugh O’Conor. He’s a busy guy.

Hugh is soon to be seen in a movie written by Edna O’Brien  based on her book, Wild Decembers, directed by Anthony Byrne. Coming to TV … for Christmas? Wild Decembers also has Owen McDonnell and Matt Ryan.
He has just finished the movie Re-Uniting the Rubins. A comedy directed by Yoav Factor.

Nick Youngquest who now plays for Gateshead Thunder in England

The guys from Australia’s AFL & Rugby leagues that posed for the 2008 & 9 “Gods of Football” (!) look like they’ll be doing a 2010 calender DVD etc. It’s to raise money for breast cancer.
Can’t imagine Ronan O’Gara and co. doing a calender quiet like it:-)
Nick Youngquest won’t be doing it this year as he plays in for Gateshead Thunder now.

Thomas Fersen, poet, singer, songwriter

Les Deux Megots. “The two cigar butts” is a play on the name of the famous Parisian cafe Les Deux Magots. But in the video it looks like the animator had another much cooler cafe in the Marais in mind.. Au Petit Fer à Cheval.

The possible Nokia/ IBM “Nokia RX-51 Rover phone” due next year? In the meantime =

The N900 is due October… I see it’s being called the Rover phone by some sites?
After long deliberation I was going to get a mini laptop. Then thought well, the rumored Nokia RX-51 Rover is coming out but I need something in the meantime. N900 is it. Looks like the iPod. But with a full  keyboard and some higher specs. Though slightly heavier.. Have one on pre order.

Update Nokia’s Maemo site changed their vimeo video settings but here’s same on youtube
ps- the N900 Maemo is all over the web. Check out the no. of video promo’s out.

• Looks like iPhone 3GS is less spec wise than the N900.
• Looking at the 3G Frequencies , It’s most likely that in the T-Mobile gets the N900 and AT&T wont. In Ireland, Vodafone?
• The N900 will be available only in select markets – Europe, Middle East, North America.

Michael Fassbender in Eden Lake

Kelly Reilly, Michael Fassbender, Jack O’Connell all star in Eden Lake out on DVD. What is it with scary movies, I’m not a fan! H2 and some others are out at the mo. But this one has the best cast, including Michael Fassbender.

Anton plays Kane in New York, I love You!

I saw Paris, Je t’aime recently. Good movie. I was abit, hmm when I heard it was a film of circa 12 stories. It was OK though.

The same producers have done a similar project but based it in New York. “New York, I love you”, is the movie.
The producers aren’t finished with the formula and future “Cities of Love” movies include ones based in Rio de Jainero, and Berlin among others….
Natalie Portman is in both films, and in New York, I love You, she also directs one of the segments.

There’s about a million actors and directors all listed after the jump.

Gay Cruise or Out an ' About in Dublin?

Cruising In Style have a cruise to guess where….. The U.A.E.

United Arab Emirates, and the surrounding countries… A gay cruise?  lol.  From the 15th to 22nd March 2010.

At the same time in Dublin, there are some huge-  HUGE projects opening their doors for the 1st time!
It’s Saint Patrick’s Week at the same time as the cruise, so it’s going to be a great time to be in Dublin.

The 2010 St. Patrick’s Festival dates have been confirmed as Friday March 12th – Wednesday March 17th. Paddy’s Week is  great at any time, but next year is going to be special! Book your week off now, seriously
The Huge projects are part of the Dublin Docklands Development, some are listed as being due to open September 2010. But they are hoping to have all the projects finished and opened in March 2010! These being the €400m Convention Centre. The Samuel Beckett Bridge, Canon Hall LUAS line. The Grand Canal Theater, and a completely new Public Square.

If you can’t do Dublin, the Gay Crusie looks interesting. Imagine the U.A.E!

Looks like their doing three other cruises  in 2010 so will look into going on one.

Below is the schedule for the U.A.E Cruise.

Departs March 15, 2010

Hunks and Honchos, Queens and Queers, come on the big cruise

There’ll be semen everywhere …
Dance all night a Jolly Roger, there’s a porthole for very todger.
Two dozen men to keep you amused …
All aboard if you’ve got spunk …
Lubed up chums in every bunk ..
Chase Pete with Dick from dusk to dawn,
Get down, blow the captain’s horn
Chocolate starfish close up to you …
Lubrication, ejaculation, celebration,
