When I hear the name Tempest Storm I first think about Tempest Bledsoe from the Cosby Show. I can't help myself - she was my least favorite of the Huxtables. Then I think about strippers and how that's such a perfect name for a glorious pole dancer. Lucky for us, there is a stripper with that moniker...and she's 80 years old and still going strong!

Of course, I have to wonder if she wears orthopedics while working the pole but something tells me she's too classy for that.

Thanks to Michael K. over at D-Listed for bringing Kenyan Smith to my attention. Not only is he a piece of man meat in the very female-dominated sport of synchronized swimming, he is also a splendid reminder of one of the best SNL skits that I can remember.

First I give you the profile of Kenyan as perceived by all of his hags teammates. Kenyan does make a very good point about reverse sexism. Currently the Olympics do not have a place for competitive male synchronized swimmers which is not only cruel to people like Kenyon, but also for those of us who would love to see just how gay it could get. By gay, I do mean fabulous. I'm going to start a petition - who's with me?

And now, the classic SNL synchronized swimming skit.
