I'm sickMan, I feel like crap. Since last week, I’ve been fighting this truly awful 100.5 fever and I’m crossing my fingers that it isn’t anything serious.

It’s been pretty awful. Shaking terribly through the night, painful fevers and complete loss of appetite. Feed a fever, my butt! Here’s another reason why our Health Care System needs an overhaul.

Seeing a doctor, blood tests and medicine, $450 total. And this is the cheaper version. Thankfully we ran into our sexy friend, Chicago Dragons poster boy and fierce Sister of Perpetual Indulgence John Brosan, who always makes me quickly forget about my boo boos.

Marc Felion and Jane LynchMeanwhile, Marc Felion and our friend Michael Lehet went over to HRC’s Annual Gala “Summer Chic” to primarily stalk the guest of honor, openly lesbian comedian Jane Lynch and of course to support the advancement of gay rights.

Jane’s well known for her appearances in the great comedy films “A Mighty Wind,” “40-Year Old Virgin” and “Space Chimps.” The nice thing about these charity galas, is that the celebrities they hire to show for them CAN’T leave. You can just take as many pictures of them as you like, and they can’t run away from you!

Thankfully, Marc and Jane hit it off and managed to pose together for this wonderful photo. Click here to see more photos from the event.

One nice thing you get to do when you’re sick at home is to watch lots and lots of reality TV. After participating in “What Not to Wear” I’m amazed more than ever on how many hours of shooting, writing and editing it takes to make one hour of a TV show.

Hulk Hogan File PhotoWhat they really are is mini-documentaries. One particularly unusual show I caught was a spin-off of Hulk Hogan’s reality show “Brooke Knows Best” which focuses on Brook Hogan, the daughter of the 1980s wrestling celebrity Hulk Hogan, pretty much doing nothing.

On last weeks show Hulk Hogan (who still looks huge) sat down with her openly gay roommate, choreographer Glenn Packard, to talk about just how “gay” he was.

Glenn’s worked for the likes of N’Sync, Michael Jackson and Liza Minelli. The man’s resume is gay.

Needless to say, Hulk needed to let the viewers of the TV show (all three of us) about how gay friendly he was. “Some of my best wrestler friends are gay.” Which made me realize this is probably the first time he’s publicly acknowledged the sexuality of his famous TV co-stars.

So who’s gay? Randy Macho Man Savage? The Iron Sheik? Andre the Giant (rest in peace)? That’s a whole lot of gay.

Listen as we talk about La Pequeña’s new video as the Chilean Subway Goddess, Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog, and the recently found conjoined birds.

La Pequena is now the Subway Goddess Neil Patrick Harris in Dr. Horrible Conjoined Birds Found Pitvertising

We all know that advertising works, especially on podcasts like this one, but a London ad agency is about to expand the realm of advertising into men’s armpits.

Pittvertising. Digital TV screens built into the armpits of hot men’s shirts draw attention on subways, marketing deodorants and other male-body related goods.

Now if condom or underwear manufacturers could do crotchvertising. I’d buy whatever they were selling!

A Feast of Fools a day helps you work, rest and play.

I haven’t had a chance yet to listen to the show, and it’s time to call it a night. Look forward to listening and hope your feeling better really soon!

BTW you’re picture is just so adorable I want to want to nurse you back to health. All of us with the inner Mom are lining up with our own personal versions of momma’s chicken soup for you. At least in this virtual world! Get well soon!

I just started to tune in. Oh Darling feel better soon! If I was there I would break out my Daphne gear and play your drag queen granny and nurse you back to health. Feel better soon babe! Oh and so far the show is good. :D Sending you Love and Anti-Bodies!
Matty

So true about nursing you back to health. If its any consolation Fausto, even when your sick, you still look hot and adorable in that cute blanky no less!!! ***sign*** I am sure you are in great hands with Dr. Marc, although I have to agree with you about not eating pickles. Maybe if you watched ‘Pickle Surprise’ as a substitute that will make you feel better.

I felt really sad for Rami. Eye-witness accounts gave a gruesome description of the attack. No one, including hot and sexy celebrities deserve this kind of treatment.

Get well Fausto!!!

Fausto
It’s starve a fever feed a cold!
Hope you’re feeling better.
Mark

Just don’t die like Jim Henson who had a cold and ended up with toxic shock syndrome…

Marc & Michael defile Jane Lynch’s bathroom at the Hilton!

Funny show…Loved Fausto`s comment about facebook. :)

Get better soon, Fausto ! We still need you !

It wouldn’t let me embed the video here for some reason, so here’s the link:

Thinking of you Fausto and get well real soon!

much much much LOVE
cliff from Australia

Thank you guys, I’m feeling much better today. I would LOVE to see pictures of Matty in nurse drag, so bring it on!!!

I am eating plenty of yougurt and now I’m eating small spoonfuls of fresh sauerkraut (major yuck).

The idea behind starving and feeding a cold is based on eating food temporarily raises the body’s immune system.

Hey guys, fun show despite Fausto’s ailments, not used to just listening to you guys without a guest, it felt like we were hanging out chatting, and being i am naked in bed listening to it, it’s kind of hot lol

Very entertaining show! i haven’t laughed so hard all weekend! Facebook really how fausto describes it, i’ve only been out of high school for a year and already i’m seeing some of my friends deteriorate, or get knocked up! Looks like i’m going to miss the show tonight, my mom is coming to visit me and wants mother daughter time :( but hey I’m still on for Thursday! See everyone there!

Oh Faustin i hope you get better soon. I swear i have never had fever, or at least that i remember, for some reason i barely get THAT sick, just the annoying cold…it must be the water here in Mexico hahaha, u know, once your body gets used to all the bacteria it learns to live with it, lol, that is why you all get sick when you come here, your bodies are not used to that, so we are more evolved that you hahahaha :oP

Hey so, about that Rocky Horror dude, i do not remember his name and to be honest i have never seen the movie but i did watch the scene where he first appears and damn was he a hottie!!! Of course being me (by me i mean obsessed with porn) i remember that one time i saw naked pics of this individual and damn he was/is hung and not in your just above average but really nicely hung. I could link you but i know that since you are a google lover u will have no prob finding the pics. I remember they said he did some naked pics and did a homoerotic hercules era movie, i think that was his only one besides Rocky. It was in italian and there was a lot of male nakedness in the movie, like full naked. I think i should try to dl it :oD

John?
I know who you are talking about…
That is James Roscoe he is part of Treasure Island Media.
He is also part of the group that we are starting here in Chicago.I am talking about the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.
We will be out for Market Days with some special guests from somewhere special.
Yeah, so my friend hurt his one foot and then while trying to work the crutches hurt his other foot.
He is not having a good summer. He works up at JackHammer stop by and say Hey!
He is not hard to miss look for the HOT GUY IN CRUTCHES…I love it when they can’t run from me!
Fausto, I hope you are feeling better real soon! I’ll bring some pazole over to fix you up.
Love ya
-SAL-E

Hurricane Fausto is still raging in Chicago!! Get better soon :) Oh, and very cute picture under the blanket!

Aww… Feel better, Fausto :) I just got my wisdom teeth taken out, so I feel your pain :P

Also very impressed with your Spanish skillz Marc. Did you learn that from/with Mr. Fernos or by yourself? It’s really good.

Wish I could have been there with Marc seeing all those wrestlers! You know my ears were perked up during that segment! Hope you boys thought of me whenever the word “wrestle” is spoken.
Your wrestling obsessed fan, Mark from AZ

Hey gorgeous!!! Hope your fever is gone……..I’m still hobbling around like a jackass!
