Watching him work his iPhone, I see that his text message function gets used a whole lot. As an internet junkie Nick embraced texting early on, before it became many people&#8217;s primary form of communication. </p>
<p>He was also one of the first podcasting super-fans, actively participating as a listener and informal contributor in many of the online shows we now know as podcasts. </p>
<p>The fun ended when he got outed as a gay man on one of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nobody_Likes_Onions#Nick_Starr">his favorite shows, Nobody Likes Onions.</a> </p>

<p>Nick sold his blackberry cell phone and a listener bought it and sent his gay online personal ads to be ridiculed for the world to hear.</p>

<p>Today Nick is looking great and living a healthy, happy life as an openly gay man in San Francisco. </p>
<p>Listen as we talk with Nick about cyber-bullying, guilt over what turns us on and the future of podcasts and online communities.</p>

		<itunes:summary>Nick Starr feels more comfortable text messaging than he does placing a phone call. Watching him work his iPhone, I see that his text message function gets used a whole lot. As an internet junkie Nick embraced texting early on, before it became many people&#8217;s primary form of communication. 
He was also one of the first podcasting super-fans, actively participating as a listener and informal contributor in many of the online shows we now know as podcasts. 
The fun ended when he got outed as a gay man on one of his favorite shows, Nobody Likes Onions. 
 
Nick sold his blackberry cell phone and a listener bought it and sent his gay online personal ads to be ridiculed for the world to hear.
Later he came into the national spotlight when he attempted suicide and micro-blogged about it on Twitter. He got a lot of sympathy from his friends, family and an in-depth article about the experience in the New York Times.
Today Nick is looking great and living a healthy, happy life as an openly gay man in San Francisco. 
Listen as we talk with Nick about cyber-bullying, guilt over what turns us on and the future of podcasts and online communities.
Ernest Borgine, star of such classics as The Poseidon Adventure and Marty credited the secret to his longevity to masturbating. The 91 year old actor told  Fox and Friends that he likes to release the pressure in hushed tones but it was picked up by his mic. Love that Ernest-ness!
The Internet and television is all a buzz about what&#8217;s on US Olympic champion Michael Phelps&#8217; iPod. He seems to never be with out it in photos these days. Could he be listening to Feast of Fools? I don&#8217;t know but the idea of him spending some time listening to Tracy&#8217;s sexy stories, or Sal-E take on the nightlife, or even Amanda&#8217;s sci fi geek tangents makes me giddy.
Finally a president you would want to see shirtless! Photos of Barack Obama playing in the surf in Hawaii are making the rounds. Maybe Obama took a page from former Russian president Vladimir Putin and decided to sex up his image by appearing shirtless. We We hope and pray that McCain doesn&#8217;t do the same.
Plus- beer milkshakes and believe it or not, Nathan Lane&#8217;s Lip Plumping Lip Balm.
