  • Cannabilism: History, Perspective and Taxonomy

    Fished this out of a MeFi thread on cannibalism and sadism. Court TV’s Crime Library: Cannibalism

  • Athletic Apparel for Short Guys

    Okay fellow short men – where do you get your workout clothes? Every time I go to SportMart, even the small shorts are way too long. Long shorts only make you look shorter. Same with tank tops and shirts. Then when I go to Amazon and marvel at their huge selection of multiple brands – […]

  • Media Watchdog Takes Down Bill O'Reilly (Again)

    Mr. O’Reilly, you have repeatedly and personally attacked me, Media Matters for America, and my fine staff, calling us “vile,” “despicable,” and “weasels,” and comparing us to the Ku Klux Klan, Castro, Mao, and the Nazis. And you have refused my repeated requests to appear on your broadcast…. On the January 5, 2004, O’Reilly Factor, […]

  • Anti-Gay Rally Starts at Dr. King's Tomb

    Gay rights activists are denouncing an anti-gay-marriage march that starts near the tomb of the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. as an effort to hijack the slain civil rights leader’s legacy. The march, set for Saturday, December 11, is being organized by the predominantly black 25,000-member New Birth Missionary Baptist Church of suburban Atlanta, whose […]

  • Canada Gay Marriage Rant

    It’s great that when my vitriol is dried up on a Friday morning, I can borrow vinegar from a neighbor. T goes off on a woman’s letter to the WaPo about the gay marriage events in Canada. As a gay man in the Metro-DC area, and a fellow commuter, let me be blunt in my […]

It is unclear exactly what recourse the plaintiffs’ seek; the filing adds on to an original suit to have the recount […]

  • Gay Teen Expelled From High School

    What would you do if you were a closeted eighteen-year old senior in high school and your principal told your parents that you were gay? James had created a gay teen outreach site for closeted teens to talk to eachother. A classmate outed him to the administration did the rest. Before the expulsion the school […]

  • Cold Turkey

    Did anyone catch the beginning of this show? Ron and I had tuned in, not knowing what it was. This is the best beginning of any reality show ever. All the participants came into the house thinking that they were in different shows: train for an astronaut, design a fashion line, find love as a […]

  • Apprentice Finale

    Whoever thought to stage the last boardroom in Lincoln Center needs to be given a promotion. That was bad-ass. When they swirled around, the wall came up and hundreds of people are screaming. Fantastic twist. Oh shit, here comes Regis. Something’s wrong with the video. Does anyone else get a lot of bleed? (later) When […]

  • IL Gov Wants to Ban Graphic Video Game Sales to Minors

    Slippery slope time. Evidently the video games rating system isn’t enough. Some of the popular video games on the market right now allow kids to simulate and participate in violent and sexual activities. Soldiers heading to Iraq use simulations like today’s games in order to prepare for war. That may be OK if you’re a […]
