Old Home Movies - Blind Style

As we approach October 17, the urge came to go back and dig up a couple of Ted's old original blinds which began to hint towards the coming of Baby Tile.  Can you believe it was 9 years ago?

And now that we know Jake and Austin met as far back as 2002 with their relationship taking off like a rocket ship, reading the Baby Tile blind again in 2007 makes one realize that their relationship story followed a more natural and realistic progression than so many of the zip-liners you see today.  

The famous Lakers photos from 2006 had barely been affixed into the scrapbook before Ted released this revelation:

One Kids 'R' Us Blind Vice - January 11, 2007

Congrats are in order! Guess what? I hear our fave hubba-hubba, humpy homo in T-town, Toothy Tile, is seriously considering making things super-
domesticated with his equally homosational b-f. And no, I don't mean the gorgeous closeted (albeit permanently, it seems) actor is getting a new puppy or Cuisinart.
Hear ol' T2 is thinking about helping his man-friend adopt something, uh, more...complex. As in a human (aren't we all?). Meaning, a baby! Too sweet!
I could just cry (since Ellen D. left me on the verge yesterday, ya know) with happiness!
Couldn't all you hard-asses at home weep with me, too?
Yeah, right—wouldn't hurt for you malcontents to soften up a bit, but whatever.
You all going for a boy or a girl, Mr. Tooth?
And if he or she turns out to be gay, like you, and if he or she wants to become a mucho-talented performer, also like you, Daddy Toothy, I declare, I do wonder what advice you'd offer the kiddo? Hmmm. What could it be?

Stay away from the Biz, altogether, I wonder?

And then 3 months later, came this:
From Ted Casablancas at E! Online March 15 2007: 
 
"... thought I'd also give you the latest on Toothy Tile. Hear he's not really planning on adopting a kiddo, as I previously broke a few weeks ago. Nope. I was—gasp!—wrong. 
Turns out T2, so blab our mutual amigos, plans on swirling up his love juice, right alongside his boyfriend's procreating protein, ya know, putting it in some kinda beaker or toaster, or something, and mixing it around with a donor's eggs, then putting the results into yet another donor to carry the resulting embryo.
The plan is, Boyfriend Tile will then, legally (and far, far away from pokin' press types like yours truly) be listed as papa—when, in fact, our beloved Tooth just may be the correct daddio. Oh, the lengths scaredy-cat cats will go to in order to cover up their preferred meowing ways."

A bittersweet look back. This song makes me feel kind of melancholic and I hadn't intended that at all. LOL!

Beautiful rendition by Eddie Vedder, isn't it? Love it - first time hearing him sing a cover of that song.

Oh folks....when you look at 2007 and how there was so much eyebrow arching over Ted's blind about a Baby Tile and what we know now?

Look at everything that has happened since then. It is phenomenal. It is undeniable that these two guys did exactly what Ted said they did.

We'll look at a bit more, but it was nice to go back and re-read the old original blinds.

Wow! Nine years already. I can still remember how Jake and Austin were the talk of the town during those years. In fact, when Jake showed up with Austin at that Lakers game in February 2006, I thought the Internet might melt down on the spot. Always great to revisit the beginning. Jake was genuinely happy back then. Now, nearly a decade later, there is even more evidence that these guys are raising a family. Austin has basically sidelined his career, letting Jake become the breadwinner. Just beneath the official narrative you can see what's been really going on beneath the surface.

That staged pic in London with Jake and that female chef, is just another classic example of enough hetero suggestion to continue with the charade. That's why TMZ "reported" on a pretty much nothing pap shoot. They provided the content that then could be picked up by other media allies/outlets to build upon. Lamey's nonsense a classic example of the technique. Make no mistake. Most of what surrounds these two guys is smoke and mirrors. Because they are still very much together, raising that Family Tile that began in 2007. It's a little bit early, but Happy Birthday, BT.

Thank you for this lovely recap.
That's so sweet. So much crazy stuff to manage for so long for these guys. These little memories from the past are always appreciated.

We are going to face a very interesting (sad or funny, it depends upon how you look at it) weekend starting from tonight.
So this post was really needed!

prairiegirl said...

Hey Peyton, wonderful to see you! ;-) I felt like getting misty and hadn't read those blinds in awhile so it was nice to do so again.

And I have to say, it's kind of funny because I just happened to come down to Wichita to visit my brother & his family. My niece is giving up her room so I can sleep in it tonight, poor kid. And while I can't see them now, when the lights first went out, she has a bunch of glow in the dark stars on her ceiling. It was very awesome.

And I don't know where the years went. I still remember when they were both born, my niece and nephew, and taking them to parks and the mall and playing and birthdays and tonight, my nephew tells us his future college plans and it just can't be.

I don't want him to start going to college! He's still my little nephew and I remember rocking him in his bedroom as he slept, there in the rocking chair. Feels like it was yesterday. The years go so fast, one minute they're holding your hand crossing the street and the next, they're shaving and voice is all deep and college is being planned.

Gee, imagine if I was a parent, and just not an aunt. LOL!

And one minute, Jake and Austin are having their first one and Jake is piggybacking with you know who and now that kid is going to be 9 years old. NINE years old. Those 2 guys are very soon going to start going thru puberty again with their kids and the dreaded teen years.

They think they're in control now, wait until they go through that, right? *maniacal laugh*

;D

prairiegirl said...

honey, I'm home! I could've stayed down there a bit longer - we had a very good time. Had some Jimmy's Egg, just us 3 siblings. You cannot beat Jimmy's Egg! Went to several favorite places and their farmers market. The pickins are getting slim, but some folks still had tomatoes, some lettuce, good stuff.

It was nice to mostly disconnect. Once in awhile, the urge comes to just get off of social media. This guy I follow tweeted last week that he needed a day off and thanked his followers for understanding (or something like that). And I told him, for pete's sake, a person shouldn't have to apologize for taking a break from social media. But isn't that the mentality of America today? Companies give employees laptops and work cell phones so that they can stay accessible and "agile". Folks have cell phones, noses constantly checking timelines or emails or Facebook posts or whatever, afraid like we might miss something or that we need to be reach-able.....

What did we do before all of this? Well, somehow the world is still here and made it through all of those centuries without. For the most part, I love Twitter and everything, but there's so much more out there. And I need to remember that. :-)

Just this person's tweets alone from the Think Pop event last night are interesting enough. Either she was sent from Mgmnt to give the "official" point of view or she sees what she wants to see, lol. Barf warning towards the end.

@bnodzak my breath away. Seriously.



There's just so much in those exchanges, I don't even know what observation or conclusion to reach first. What else is there to expand upon when a Mercedes Benz is capable of taking a person's breath away?

I mean...




prairiegirl said...

I would be surprised if there aren't some kind of picture(s) released. It would look awfully suspicious for Mgmnt to not make sure one or two pics at least are "released" or "leaked".

This gal sounds exactly like she was put on Twitter to give the narrative for the evening, I'm sorry. She's trying to heavily suggest to everyone where Jared is. And what is with the "no show"? Unless you know for certain that Jared and Genevieve were committed to and publicly advertised to be attendees, you can't say he was a "no show". "No show" has negative and spiritless connotations.

The pic is of Jensen. But no Danneel.

Methodical Muser said...


Management routinely sends people to these kinds of events to provide "authentic" social media content for the fans. Which means, scripted content. And, Danneel is a force of nature? Really? Truly this all reads like poorly composed fan fic. How ironic. Management loves to accuse others of making stuff up and that's because, they are the ones "shaping" the image of their clients every single day. In addition to manipulating the audience to view what's going on according to the false narrative they spin.

Exactly. It's like the tweeter is going down a checklist of instructions to make sure she "answers" all the questions people might have about the evening. Spoon-feeding 101.
