4th of July in Provincetown

Posted on July 8, 2012 | 3 comments

Last Wednesday was the 4th of July.  My partner and I opted to escape the heat of Boston and spend the week in Provincetown.  Lucky for us (and half of Boston or so it seemed) Brian Piccini – owner of dBar and DeuxAve – hosted a fantastic party at his house in Provincetown, which has a beautiful view of Provincetown Harbor. Listed below are some photos from his Independence Day bash. Thank you to all those who posed for a picture. And thank you Brian for the invite. Brian PicciniBrian PicciniBrian PicciniBrian PicciniBrian Piccini

Men who exercise increase their testosterone levels

Posted on July 8, 2012 | 1 comment

Are you struggling to get yourself to the gym and remain active?  Last week a new study reported in The Daily News linked weight loss with an increase in testosterone and sex drive for middle-aged men.

The study found that men who incorporated two-and-a-half hours of exercise a week into their lives, as well as eating healthier food, saw dramatic results in the course of a year. There was a 15% increase in testosterone levels and a 46% decrease in instances of hypogonadism, a condition characterized by low testosterone levels that can be linked to low sex drive and erectile dysfunction, according to Mayo Clinic.

Hide your honey… Bear week starts

Posted on July 7, 2012 | 3 comments

Provincetown Bear Week2012 Bear Week in Provincetown officially starts today.  If you are heading to Ptown for the week, enjoy your time and have plenty of fun.

The Marc Jacobs shop is ready for the expected crowds. Before the 4th of July theme week had ended they had already added these two guys out in front of their shop on Commercial Street.  I predict more than a few will pause to have their photograph taken with these guys.

I call these two buddies “da bears”.Provincetown Bear Week

Letters to Cleo: Here and Now

Posted on July 6, 2012 | 1 comment

One reason I love Boston is because it has an amazing music scene. Something about having more than 60 colleges and universities within a 30 mile radius of Boston probably has something to do with that.

In the 1990s I loved this local band and saw them more than a few times. The band has since gone its separate ways, but I still love ’em.

Provincetown: Bear Week

Posted on July 6, 2012 | 5 comments

Immediately following 4th of July Week is Bear Week in Provincetown.  The two weeks could not be more different as twinks, circuit boys and others will file out on Saturday, July 7th and burly, hairy men arrive.

I stumbled upon this excellent YouTube video from Provincetown’s Bear Week 2011.  It is worth watching.  TorontoKub did a great job pulling this together, and if you identify as a bear, cub, otter (whatever) I think the video will make you smile and perhaps even consider booking a trip to Ptown for Bear Week 2013.

BosGuy brain teaser

Posted on July 6, 2012 | 6 comments

Each Friday morning I post a riddle or what I like to call a “brain teaser”. Share this with your colleagues or friends and leave your answer in the comments section. I’ll publish all comments and if needed validate the correct response in the afternoon so readers can take a fair guess. This week’s puzzle will make you think a bit, but I’m confident you will figure it out.

Like “a Toyota” or “Civic”, I’m just as good in reverse?

Lee Castoro: RAW Fine Art

Posted on July 5, 2012 | 3 comments

20120703-013535.jpg
I recently had the opportunity to meet the exceptionally talented Provincetown artist, Lee Castoro. He conceived and created the powerful fine art photography exhibit RAW Fine Art, which premiered in August 2010 and toured the United States. The subject matter addressed in the collection is powerful and Lee’s vision, brought to life through his photography is moving and relatable.

If you visit Ptown, you can see some of Lee’s work on display at the prestigious Julie Heller Gallery in Provincetown at 2 Gosnold Street. Definitely a gallery worth seeking out on the Friday night gallery stroll or as an alternative to the beach if you need a break from the sun.

If a visit in Provincetown isn’t likely this year you may see more by visiting the RAW Fine Art website, or you can visit and “like” the Facebook page.

BosGuyI suppose that is one way to encourage people to come in and try your food.  Do you think the person was even for one second thinking about what he was saying when he put up that message?

BosGuyI’m on vacation today and feeling a bit lazy about what to blog about so I figured some patriotic eye-candy would suffice.

The circuit hits Provincetown

Posted on July 4, 2012 | Leave a comment

20120704-152725.jpg

The circuit is in full swing in Provincetown as men from all over descend upon this tiny town. The crowds seem more manageable this year but the town still seems to be filled to capacity. I’ve spent much of my time relaxing and going to shows including Ryan Landry’s Show Girls and Mary Poppers. Later this week I’ll check out Ms. Coco Peru at The Crown and Anchor.

I’m really struggling with writing posts and adding images to my blog using my iPad so I promise to add more once I get home and to have those posts drop next week. I’ve included a photo of what the daily Tea Dances at the Boatslip look like, proving that the crowds continue to flock to Ptown no matter what people say about the economy. Below is a photo from Monday’s Tea Dance.

Fitness tips from Kris Kranzky

Posted on July 4, 2012 | 1 comment

Fitness tipsKris Kranzky, my personal trainer at The Boston Sports Club in the South End, shared his typical weekly workout regimen in last week’s fitness tips posting.

Kris has recently modified that routine to get into shape for two hockey tournaments next month by adding different workouts that focus more on power and explosive movements.

If you are looking to add variety into your routine, consider including sports specific exercises including olympic lifts, cleans, snatches, deadlifts, squats, plyometrics and quick feet drills.  Ask trainers at your local gym for suggestions or advice.  You can also use YouTube to watch demonstrations and to give you ideas on how to include new routines into your work out regimen.
