Brokeback Jack Twist truck brings in $60,000.
TAB: Graham Norton splits with boyfriend Kristian Seeber: "I don't think you date people unless you think that it might be a possibility you'll be together forever. Everyone is a bit romantic when they fall in love. You do hope it will be forever and always. I never understand people who just go on lots of dates. In the past I would have pursued something just for sex. But now I can't be bothered. I just think 'it's sex, I'll have sex again'. I'm a man and men are dogs but sex gets less important...There have always been long gaps between my relationships. Finding someone you want to spend your life with is hard. As you get older your checklist of what you're looking for gets longer, but the checklist of what you're offering gets shorter. You become fussier but you've got no right to be that way."
Gay Pride in Phoenix attracts 10,000 over the weekend.
What's the distressing secret behind Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman's breakup that could be revealed on a few FBI tapes?
United 93 trailer hitting too close to home? "One lady was crying. She was saying we shouldn't have [played the trailer]. That this was wrong ... I don't think people are ready for this."
Talk about nuts! U.S. researchers have created powerful stem cells from human testicles, which they then nurtured to become heart, bone, and nerve cells. I wonder where they got the testicles from? Maybe someone should ask one of the three men charged over the weekend for running a sadomastic dungeon in rural North Carolina. They allegedly performed several castrations for willing participants over the last year, without a license.

Self-hatred and intense self-loathing can manifest itself in political behaviours, and as seen here, by psychosexual behaviours including genital mutilation.
For many youth, it is suicide of the entire human body, and life with it. With these souls, it is castration.
They shouldn't worry, for if these men allow the political sadists to do their work, they could wait to have their castrations in Nazi-like death camps.

Two disturbing thoughts:
1. The FBI was actually spending time recording Tom and Nicole's cell phone conversations,
and
2. "Women's Day" has a mole in the FBI.
I don't think it's actually true, but it makes for a disturbing mental picture. I keep picturing Mission Impossible 4, in which Tom Cruise roots out the traitor who's selling top secret information to the editors of "Good Housekeeping".

Relationship Comment
I would agree. As I've gotten older I'm much less concerned with sex than emotional connectivity (oh, I'm considered attractive by anyone's standards).
While I love a good shag, I don't go running out every night, week (or even month) looking for it. Rather, I've gotten to the point of simply living life and allowing things to fall where they will.
Fortunately, I've recently met a nice guy (after 5 years of being single and 2 previous long-term relationships)and the connectivity and sex is awesome.
It pays to follow your instincts regarding what is and isn't important to you. Makes all the difference in living a life on your own terms. Bonus: it also makes you attractive to the very people you find attractive.

Interestingly, Graham Norton's longest relationship was 5 1/2 years starting in 1996 - just as he was starting to become famous - with a man who curently runs the findadeath.com web site (and takes people around death sites in Hollywood - www.dearlydepartedtours.com):

I definitely won't be seeing United 93 - I just can't, but I'm glad it is at least premiering at TriBeCa. Robert DeNiro started the TBF to help out lower Manhattan after 9/11 and he truly loves New York. I have a hard time thinking he'd let a film the portrays that day insensitively into his film festival.

Saw the United 93 trailer. Don't want to see a recreation of the most depressing even in my life.

Anyone remember the cast of Stepford Wives promoting the movie on the View? (I don't think Glenn C and Bette M are best buddies)Star Jones asked a petrified Nicole K what
she'd like now that she has risen to the great heights of Celebrity...A weary Nicole said 5 years away from the spotlight...the look on Star's face was priceless...

Andy...where are you going to park that truck in Manhattan? :o)

The Calgary Sun said the truck got $70,000.
