Found Porn Star
I work in a store that is pretty popular around here. It has locations around the country, inclding NYC and LA. Sometimes a gal at the "home office" will post in our company-wide weekly newsletter that certain celebrities came into the store and tell us what they thought and what they bought.
I doubt this one will make it into her list, but gay porn's own Jason Branch (above) came in last night, and once I picked my jaw up off the floor, I managed to laugh quietly to myself as several co-workers treated him to our legendary customer service, never knowing the dirty dirty things he's done for fun and profit.
Unsurprisingly, he was a very nice guy who had chatty banter with all of us on a quiet Monday evening. Once he and his friend (husband? life-partner? Slave-boy?) left, I wasted no time in telling the tale, though it outed me as a porn watcher in a relatively straight-laced setting. They can't imagine I stay at home and bake all the time. Even though I sort of do.
Living in SF as I do, it's not all that unusual to see the odd porn star or so, even when it's not Gay Pride or Folsom St. or Bear Weekend or whatever, but this was still pretty cool. I rank this right up there with the time I saw Judd Winick and his lovely wife Dr. Pam Ling, both of MTV's "Real World: San Francisco" in the store. Naturally, Judd is famous to me for his great comics, but having that "I know this guy is famous even if you don't" factor applies in both cases.
I won't include a pic of Judd here, as I don't think it's fair to compare his absolute cuteness to a person who makes his living from being a physical paragon. Plus, I can't find a shot of Judd in tight white underwear showing hard.

OK. One, you were being sarcastic about Judd's comics, yes? (You don't have to answer that). Two, I saw Judd at some restaurant years ago and kept thinking, "I know that guy from somewhere." He kept smiling at me (probably because I was staring), so I was SURE that I knew him. About a week later I figured out who he was. Three, I didn't even notice the really porny part of the porn until you mentioned it. Then, wow.

I don't care if he is a gay porn star I REALLY enjoyed his photo!
