Darlings, mark your calendars.

NOT ONLY is Emmett McCarthy hosting an event at his store EMC2 on December 9th,


NOT ONLY is Tim Gunn appearing at said event,
NOT ONLY will Tim be signing L'il Tim Bobbleheads upon request,
NOT ONLY are said bobbleheads a new design, but they TALK,
NOT ONLY will EMC2 be offering GAY GIFT WRAPPING, where, for 5 bucks, you get your purchase fabulously wrapped in what Emmett called "queen-fabulous wrapping paper,"


NOT ONLY will you be getting Gay Gift Wrapping, but your $5 goes to LIVE OUT LOUD, whose "mission is to empower, energize and enable Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Youth to live the life of their dreams through the celebration of the richness and diversity of our shared experience, the visibility of role models and the dissemination of information."

NOT ONLY THAT,

We will be there.


And if you can't drop everything to come see us just because you have "families" and "jobs" and whatever, then support Team RunGay by plugging your picks for TRESemmé's Fantasy Runway Game. Who's in and who's auf tonight, bitches?

I was there last year and Tim was so nice to everyone. Hopefully some of the designers will show up like they did last year.

I rarely miss NY, but now I'm sad to be 3.000 miles away.

What's up with the Treseme site? For 2 weeks in a row I made picks, but both weeks it said afterwards that I didn't make any. And now when I click on my leagues it acts like I'm not in this league. sniff.

I've officially given up on Fantasy Runway. The site sucks, and it didn't post my selections this past week.

Good luck to the rest of you.

jinxy said...

Gotham I am having the same problem. I gave up after trying to select picks like 5 times this week and them not sticking.

And it really sucks because I got them all right last week :(

Donny B said...

Um, maybe some of us can't make it because...stay with me here...we don't live in NY.

I know, I know, it's hard to believe there's life outside your bustling city, but trust me, there is.

However, if I did live in NY, I would totally be there.

Damn!That TRESemme site would try the patience of a saint. I logged in but it was still calling me "Guest" in the upper right hand corner. Anyway I voted for Steve to win. Chris to be out. And Christian for hair. But I doubt it registered.
I would love to have some gay gift wrapping paper, but I cannot imagine what I would do with a Tim bobble head (gack).

i'm glad to hear that i'm not the only one struggling w/ the fantasy runway site. it's as if they made it so all-fired complicated that it won't function properly. i usually have time to feed my cat, brew a mug of tea, and check my mail before the site even loads.

brilliant concept, execution leaves much to be desired. huh--kind of like many of the garments we see on the show... ;)

Chris, Ricky, who cares? Never heard them announce who won on hair anyways.

Tresemme always works for me. Ironic, since I've yet to pick the right winner or loser. I locked in Chris to win the whole thing. I just like him the best. More or less at random- Steven for tonight's win, Carmen for the elimination.

I curse everything about Utah, especially it's effing distance from NYC.

Pout.

Winner: Jillian
Loser: Carmen
Hair: Chris

Yikes, thanks for the reminder. Heading off to (try and) post these predictions as a Proud Team RunGay Member:

Win -- hmmmm, I'm going with Jack just 'cause I think this might have something to do with men's wear and he has experience with that.
Lose -- Ricky 'cause he doesn't.
Hair -- sticking with Christian. Some day our little princess is going to nail this one.

Well PRAISE THE LORD AND PASS THE BISCUITS! TRESemme finally recognizes me and accepted my picks.

It's about time!

It worked for me, darlings.

Winner: Jillian
Loser: Simone
Hair: Chris

SUS said...

Didn't Simone already lose?

Richard Lonsdorf said...

I'm totally going to show up!! I knew I moved to NYC for a reason! I wonder if I can request to have all my Christmas gifts "gay gift wrapped..."

Beth said...

TLo, Can you boys please ring up the folks at Tresemme AGAIN and tell them that their site seriously sucks? If you have to threaten them with the Gay Mafia, go ahead.

Anonymous said...

Oh.
My.
God.

I have got to get on Metro North that Sunday to meet you two! Will you be there for the full four hours?

I'm already in a swivet about what to wear....

AND, I can do some very targeted Christmas shopping. YAAAY.

Hot diggety!

As ever,

You boys really need to schedule a road trip to Chicago. You have lots of devoted fans here too!!! and the weather is just getting bad enough for the full Windy City experience. Can you use your influence to get Emmett to open a boutique here?

Anonymous said...

Those bastards! They not only never counted my Episode 2 picks, but they dislodged me from Team RunGay. I hate them, I hate them, hate them and I am never buying another Tresemme product until they fix their effing Web site. Nyah-nyah-nyee-nyah-nyah.

Donny, I think our darlings TLo don't live in NYC either. I'd be there in a heartbeat, but the night before I'll be singing in a big Christmas concert, so I doubt I'll be up to a 4 hour drive from Boston the next morning.

Le heavy sigh....

Unknown said...

i'm glad i'm not the only one. for two weeks now, i've my my picks, then it tells me i haven't made any picks when i go check the results. and, i couldn't get signed up on the project rungay league.

i was wondering if it's a mac issue.

fwiw, it's not interesting enough to make me work this hard.

LOL.

I'll be there, dahlings, taking lots of pictures.

God, I hate living away from NYC!! Back in the day, I could have been there in an hour. Not anymore. :(

Anyone who's going - here's what I'd do (since I can't be there I'll tell you!) I'd wear the most horrible outfit! Go out and buy one if you must. Then, I'd beg Tim for a makeover.

Wish I could be there!

Guys-- please please please take pics of the giftwrap!!!

"WHEN will something interesting happen that's NOT in New York. Y'all are killing me."

I go to New York twice yearly to see 2 or 3 Broadway show. The last time I was there (June '07 - Grey Gardens, Spring Awakening, Year of Magical Thinking) I:

1. Stepped over human feces on the stairs to the IRT platform;

2. Paid $22.50 for a Cuervo Margarita at The Village Vanguard and $54.00 for a pork chop in Little Italy;

3. Got groped by a drunk queen wearing 18 pounds of turquoise jewelry while listening to Vinnie from Staten Island crucify "I did It Myyyyyyyy Wayyyyyyy" at Don't Tell Mama's;

That was all the "Interesting" I could have wanted. For me, NY is fun in small doses ... could NEVER live there.

Oh. My. GAWD! What a fabulous event! I trust you will tell those of us who will be incarcerated at that time all about it!

finding the filth said...

im in the neighborhood and shamefully have never been by emmett's shop. (i know! i'm horrible!) so i will definitely make an effort this time.

and - i won't spoil it - but i'm really looking forward to episode #9!

oh - and i am very satisfied with tonight's auf'ing!

Brandenburg3rd said...

I love you I hate you I love you I hate you I love you. There's no way in hell I can make it.

Have fun (duh). Have an extra serving of fun in my name. I'm going to go home now and start a major sulk that will reach peak velocity on the 9th.

{crossed arms, pouted lip, scrunched brow} Oh, poopy.

Suzanne said...

Once again I am going to give it the old college try....

BTW I NEVER got the Tresemme site to work.

Thombeau are you going to jail??

Anne said...

Also VERY satisfied with last night's aufing. Ha ha, you fake-crying bitch!

Come ON you guys, it's 9:30!! Put the post up!!!!!!!!!

Bill said...

Fab event. It was great to be at one of Emmett's events last year. I might just go again.

Tried the Tresemme site from work and from home and couldn't get it to work. I have officially given up on playing fanatsy runway (or whatever the heck it's called) - at least until I try agian next week.

Donny B said...

Gorgeous Things, I said NY, not NYC. Do they not live in the state at all? Oh well, whatever.

Have fun at your concert!

Anonymous said...

That Treseme site is got some serious issues. They've lost my picks two weeks in a row now. I give up.

Kat said...

You guys are just not fair. Not only can I not make it home that weekend to meet Tim (and you two! ♥), but apparently I'm six months too young to play Fantasy Runway. (Wow, I feel even lamer admitting that.) It's good to know that others are having difficulty with the site, because then I don't feel like I'm missing out, haha.

Anonymous said...

The Tresemme site isn't event loading for me. It's all black with a small swirling circle of stars, but nothing else loads and nothing on the page is clickable. I looked for a "skip intro" button but there was none. I don't get it. The only text on the page was "Music on/off."
