I now have a new need…I need a water heater that doesn’t run out of water.

Water is my friend; I love to shower, bathe, swim, SCUBA, float, walk in the rain and run through puddles. If there is any excuse to get wet, I’ll take it.

Today I decided to take part of the day off to help show my friends company around town. After I posted last night, we stayed up for hours all of us talking about who knows what, and they ended up being pretty cool. I figure today could be fun.

Anyways, I still woke up early. Habit I guess. So I went to the gym like normal, did my thing, spent some time in the hot tub, took a quick shower and headed home.

No one hear was awake yet, so I hopped back in the shower to wash away the rest of the chorine smell. The hot water felt awesome and the smell of my Billy Jealousy Ocean Front body wash gave me another boost of energy.

When I got out of the shower, the cool air made me very aware of every bead of water on my body. I took my time drying off, put on a mesh square cut trunk and a comfortable pair of jeans, and started writing here.

Should be a low key day, but fun all the same. I’ll be back to post the Monday Melee winner later.

Hope you all have a great Friday and a great weekend!

Some times I get myself into situations and I just don’t get how I end up there.

Last weekend one of my friends told me she had a bunch of college friends coming in this weekend and the number ended up being more than she had expected. I thought that was a good thing…meant people liked you more than you thought; however her feelings were different…she didn’t have the space.

What has happened now is that I have opened up my home to a group of people I do not know through the weekend; people that know I work in the men’s designer underwear field, but never really had that register.

They got here earlier today, I met them at my place so they could get cleaned up and rest some, and then headed back to work. Tonight we took the whole group out for a few drinks and dinner at a swanky new place just outside of town.

Just before we left I had a minor wardrobe malfunction; the clasp on my beltbuckle snapped and I was left with nothing really there to hold up my pants. Ok, no big deal, it’s just dinner and we’ll be sitting. It’s going to be fine.

I met everyone, we got to our seats pretty quick, and started to have a couple drinks. Since these are people I didn’t really know I thought it would be better to make sure I was drinking water in between mixed concoctions so I wouldn’t do anything stupid and embarrass my friend. Thing was, water may have been the dumbest thing I had done all day.

When I could no longer escape what I needed to do, I excused myself to the men’s room, found an open urinal, and started to go.

And go and go and go.

And then I lost my pants. Before I could even realize what happened, they slid right down and I had my Ginch Gonch Piggy Bottom Briefs and I was a little too busy to pull them up until I was finished. I was just going to have to wait it out; I put my hand on my hip and thought about how it was just perfect that the time I had a faulty belt was the time I chose to drink the most water.

It was at that exact moment that the door opened and half of my houseguest’s walked into the restroom and right into the line of site of my briefs.

I guess it was right then that they really made the connection that, yes, I really am in the fashion underwear business. After a short pause, a couple quick laughs, we all smiled, I finished up, and things were almost normal. Hopefully the rest of the weekend will be less interesting.

I have lots of goals and I think this one has popped back up into my life. Maybe working on images for a new ad campaign all week have got me a bit self conscious about them, or maybe it’s my new found gym routine that’s causing the renewed interest.

Whatever has started the sparked the thought has made its way pretty far into my mind today.

There is lots of advice on how to get better abs; eat less fat, do more crunches, do smarter crunches, don’t do crunches, skip days and do consecutive days.

It seems like everyone has there own person idea on how to make the perfect ads.

So the discussion today: What is your secret to better abs? If you wanted to become an male underwear model, what would you do to get those perfect abs?

I make no secret that my favorite novelty, or fun, brand of underwear is Ginch Gonch. These guys are so creative and really take me back to my childhood; the looks I get when I show people them are always a little off at first, but they almost always turn into fans.

Just this last weekend we introduced two new styles from Ginch Gonch. The first is a variation on the bandanna theme…we’ve moved from red to blue. The red bandanas have done really well for us, so I’m sure the blue will take off too.

I’m also really excited about the new Western Star line; apparently I am not alone. Just introduced to our site on Sunday, and they are already almost sold out! (Hopefully we’ll get some more soon)

If you’re looking for a fun present for a fun friend, you should check them out…I especially like the low rise brief in the Western Star.

Here’s a list of some of the new stuff that we still have left:

Check back Monday for the next round of Monday Melee!

As some of you who have been with me for a while know, I switched gyms earlier this year. Just after I switched, things got pretty crazy around here, so when I have been going, I haven’t been able to spend a great deal of time there. I get in, do my thing, and get out again as soon as possible.

Now that things are slowing down and getting more normal, I have started to finally spend some quality time at my new gym.

Which has lead to a small problem, or maybe a small confusion: I don’t know what to wear!

The gym I belonged to before this was just a small gym near by that was open 24 hours. There was no locker room, no pool, no sauna, no juice bar, but there were tons of people you knew because it was just that small. Everyone there bonded some how, became friends through fitness, and it was just normal.

The owners of that gym sold out to a bigger chain, so now my gym is a giant two story monster with everything you could need except maybe a steam room and a whirlpool in the locker room (so I don’t have to walk all the way across the pool area).

I didn’t notice this until just this morning, but people dress very different here than at Small Gym. Here there are more people walking around in tight shorts and tight shirts, trying to show off in suburbia I guess.

And there is a locker room, something I haven’t used since college.

So my questions are:

What should I be wearing to work out in? I don’t want to show off like some gym rat and I want to be comfortable.

What kind of underwear do you usually wear when working out? I’ve hitting the gym harder than ever, and my regular briefs just aren’t cutting it.

What do you walk around the locker room in?

This last one I find interesting because I have actually seen some guys change into different underwear to wear around the locker room! Is that nuts, or do I need to start bringing more underwear to the gym?

What are your gym clothes routines?

So the time has come for a summary and to announce our winner.

We had a couple image entries that we posted, like this one of Robert in his chair with his tattoo and underwear showing, or the one we received from amateur hunk earlier with his white jock.

We also got an image in of a guy that had all his junk tattooed, talk about trouser snake! (That’s what image was tattooed).

There were some clever ideas too, like this one:

What if there was a sun on one cheek and a moon on the other?

The could be interesting…talk about moon’s over my hammy…Suns seemed to be a theme too, like in this one from Michelle:

I find it hot when a guy has a sun tattooed over his belly button. My ex had one and seeing that with him in his underwear always got me going!

Another reader had one, but couldn’t get a picture in on time. Of his, he writes:

I have a tribal tattoo going down where I should have a treasure trail. Just the top of it peaks out of the top of my briefs, but it’s enough to get people to want to see more.

We had lots more people write in (I wish they had sent pictures!), but we had such a huge response right off the bat from Robert’s picture that we decided he had to be the winner! So congrats Robert! And feel free to send us more pictures!

We’re still working on the format to get more people involved and to make it easier for everyone to participate, so if you have any ideas on how we can improve or men’s underwear related contests you would like to see, let me know!

There seems to be a theme to some of our best selling products…Anything that increases the size of the bulge tends to sell well.

Sometimes there is an insert that creates the illusion of a larger package, sometimes there is a built in sling, like this C-IN2 brief with sling support, and other times there are built in cock rings.

I have a couple pair of sling support briefs, and they work really well; the profile it gives you is really nice, especially in a tight pair of jeans! The only drawbacks I have found are:

1. After a while, they sometimes start to not be as comfortable. They aren’t something I would wear to work every day.
2. Because the sling rubs a little, it can be arousing, which sometimes leads to an even bigger bulge than I had planned on.

Both drawbacks are still worth the final result in my book.

The good news is that C-IN2 has just released a new line of products that still keep the boys up front and center, but does not rely on any mechanics pulling the whole package up.

The magic is in the cut; the crotch is actually fashioned with a type of fabric shelf built in, so everything you need to lift rests comfortably on this shelf instead of free hanging down below.

I have found two great benefits:

1. Because there is nothing physically pulling me up, I don’t get any odd rubs, even after hours of wear.
2. The fabric is Bamboo, which is incredibly soft. So not only do I still get a great profile, but they are just really comfortable.

The bulge you get with the sling is bigger, and the arousal factor is higher as well, but if they just aren’t your style, try the new C-IN2 Bamboo Trophy Shelf line today!
