Gay Positive
Gay Positive is the story of one man trying to bring to attention the outdated ban on gay men donating blood in the United States of America. This documentary is meant to inform and educate people on this controversial issue. A woman who recently received her nursing degree presents facts that could suggest that in order to keep our blood supply clean and abundant, we must update our current screening process for potential donors. By taking the camera to the streets, Gay Positive captures the opinions of people from many walks of life regarding how they feel about the ban today. One of the questions posed was, "If you were in need of a blood transfusion and the donor was healthy, would it concern you if this generous individual was a gay male?" Recent history proves that when tragedy strikes, donor centers are often in short supply and struggle to meet demand. The ban forces organizations such as The Red Cross to reject willing, disease-free, healthy individuals.
Bounty Hunters
Jeff, Bill and Larry are old pals who work together at Barton Bounty Hunters in the small Southern town of Skeeter Creek. They get their bounties from Lisa, a loudmouth bail bondsman whose office is next door. Jeff is the owner of the company and leader of the team. Bill is the resident criminal profiler, and Larry is the team muscle. Together, they track down redneck fugitives, making Skeeter Creek a little bit safer.
The guys will have to deal with friends and family like Jeff's sassy ex-wife Stacy and her smarmy new husband Nathan, as well as local rednecks like Jesco (who just so happens to be Jeff's dad).

Hilarious, raunchy. adult comedy. In clubs and theaters across the country, Lisa Lampanelli calls audience members colored, queer, bald, fat, and old. Do they get offended? Angry? No!
