Amanda Steinstein has chocolate on her mind! We capture today our harried and hurried journey from our home in Andersonville to dowtown Chicago as we prepare ourselves for one of the most delicious and fabulous fund-raising events of the year, the AIDS Foundation of Chicago’s World of Chocolate!
We simply had a ton of fun at one of the most impressive charity events in Chicago, bringing dozens of fabulous chocolatiers, candy makers and chefs to dazzle and delight our taste buds. Did I mention there was a open bar?
More fabulous photos and videos to come soon, but for now, listen as Amanda, Marc and Fausto (that’s me) talk about Chocolate, AIDS, health care, Rodney King (he just got shot, but is in good condition) and the possibility that the newly crowned Miss Puerto Rico in the Miss Unverise pageant might have sabotaged herself to draw sympathy in the contest.
A Feast of Fools a day will help you work, rest and play.

November 30, 2007 at 07:37A nice little ‘cast! It’s always good to hear from Amanda. She’s my favourite after all.
If everyone here ever finds there way up to good ol’ Edmonton, Alberta, be sure to check out Kerstin’s Chocolates. (http://www.kerstinschocolates.com/index.php) She makes some really, really quality chocolate that is worth going out of your way to get.

November 30, 2007 at 10:00Yea! Amanda!
Didn’t you see the “Planet of the Apes” remake in 2001? Apes can’t swim. LOL
On the health care issue, I’ll start off by saying I agree with you, our system is “F”d up. That said, I don’t know if turning over my health care choices to the same government that took care of the people in New Orleans & Mississippi after Katrina, or the government that is running operations in Iraq, or the government that is taking care of all the thousands of wounded veterans, or the government that is watching after all the money we have put into Social Security, is a good idea. They haven’t shown me they can do much right yet. Again, I don’t have the answer, but I don’t really want my government taking care of my health care or knowing every intimate detail of my health care.

November 30, 2007 at 21:40I LOVE CHOCOLATE. I love it almost as much as I Love Cock. But chocolate can’t get me to cum. That’s what my beautiful sexy hunky husband is for. And I can’t have chocolate everyday. Hot sex is healthier when you have it everyday. It releases endorphins, relaxes and revives you at the same time. And licking melted chocolate on a man’s body is even better. Everyone should try it at least once.

December 1, 2007 at 01:52I can’t wait to sit down with a nice Choco-martini and watch the video! I loved the turn by turn directions too, almost made me feel like I was riding along….in the trunk.. ;oP As for the Ms. Puerto Rico incident….working as a DJ in one of Knoxville TN’s biggest Gay Clubs…and dealing with three to five pageants a year, I got to see and hear it all. Fist fights after the pageants, super-glue in pad locks that were protecting the “jewels”…lol…I even heard about shaved glass in the face powder, but then again, nothing really surprises me after working there. >:O) But I’d do it all over again, and wouldn’t change a second of it. As for whether I think she could have done it…well, some of those girlz spend their lives leading up to it, so anything really is possible.

December 1, 2007 at 16:41This show was soooo short..but I thought the furry friend chat was interesting. I acually dressed up as a giant onoin at this festival by me. It was fun, besides the drunk rednecks that would molest me. I feel bad for the gorilla man who almost drown…people are stupid sometimes and cross the line. Can’t wait to see the video…i got my chocolate from halloween still so i can munch on it while i watch! love yall

December 4, 2007 at 15:59Cute show!! But one Question is it me or does Amanda 2 distinct voices? It seemed to me that she at fist when you picked her up didn’t realize that you were taping and sounded one way, and then when she realized she was being recorded changed her voice to a higher pitch and more nasal.. Maybe it is just me…. I get a kick out of that!!
