News: Justin, Johnny Marr, Gay Games, Billie Jean King
The National Tennis Center in Flushing, Queens is to be renamed The USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center: "'I still can't believe it,' the 62-year-old gay tennis star said with tears in her eyes during a press conference at the stadium yesterday. 'So rarely are women thought of in this way.'"
Chicago's 2006 Gay Games drew more than 140,000 attendees, 40% more than organizers predicted: "More than 11,000 athletes from 70 countries participated in the 30 sporting events, with figure skating, diving and dancesport drawing the largest number of ticket buyers."
Former Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr has joined Modest Mouse: "Marr’s membership is so unequivocal, he will tour with MM in support of their next record, tentatively titled We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank and tentatively due this fall. 'He made a cautious commitment to write and record with us, and then the tighter we got, he was like, 'okay, let’s tour too,'' Brock said. 'Then he was pretty much a member of the band - not pretty much. He’s a full blown member of the band.'"
Fast forward to fall. Justin Timberlake sheaths his sexy back in layers of clothing in the 100-degree NYC heat. Why???
Guy Adams, an organizer for (big surprise!) wingnut Alan Keyes' group Renew America has made a hateful and inflammatory claim on a conservative internet radio show: "The newest thing in Chicago, it's becoming a trend, and you're gonna find this hard to believe...sex with infants...It's not enough that they have...you know when you engage in perversion, and homosexuality is perversion, we don't hate the gays mind you, we don't hate them, we hate what they're doing...pretty soon that perversion is like addiction, it's not enough, so you need to graduate to something else. You need to move on. So now they're having sex with animals, a small group that's getting bigger, sex with infants, sex in the street in Chicago out in the open, it's just getting more and more perverted." Of course Guy Adams had no evidence to back up his statements.
The Star Jones/Al Reynolds divorce rumor mill continues to grind.
Jack Jackson, gay activist and Houston philanthropist, has died at 81.
Guy Adams is so behind the times. He left out the part where the Gays drink the blood of orphans, abduct elderly Nuns and perform hideous experiments on them, and the curious new "gay" mutation of a third eye that turns you gay with one glance.

The new gay trend in New York is murdering people in the subway and raping their dead bodies. Cheers Guy!

Thank you, Republicans for paying this maniac's salary and giving him a platform to create more anti-gay violence. Thank you, Log Cabin Republicans for supporting Alan Keyes and George Bush's hate speech.

So question... aside from the obvious that we are just so far above this crap; where is the anithisis to this Guy Adams?
My thoughts keep going back to Bob Clark's "Porkey's", where our band of downtrodden misfits get even by, during a political rally, publicly broadcasting the remarks about penis size made by the ultra-conservative mayor while he was watching underground porno.
When can we begin broadcasting the right-wing closet porno our to the masses?

The new Gay trend in Texas is to stick jalapeno peppers in a babies butt, then slow roast them and eat the pepper while fellating the roasted baby.

I thought I would share a letter which I sent to Ms. Stacy "The Shrew" Harp for even airing such a vile and erroneous interview in the first place. She professes her "apologies" to everyone for not pre-screening her interview with Guy Adams first. Never mind that she eagerly pod-cast it and continues to distribute it on her hate-mongering Christian blog...
"To the repulsive and odious Stacy L. Harp,
There is no statement that I can make which adequately describes my contempt for the gross ignorance and vicious lies that you peddle each and every day to the world regarding productive Gay and Lesbian members of society. You’re bigotry is only outweighed by your self-righteous arrogance. You are a repulsive, immoral fraud who should first beg for forgiveness from all the people whom you have vilified then, in an act of contrition, go drown yourself in a bucket of water to atone for your foul crusade of ignorance and hate. Such a selfless act would be the only meaningful and valid penance you could perform to account for your errant, heretical and profane prognostications about the nature of humanity. You are a depraved, boorish, congenitally wicked dilettante. The world would have been a better place had you never been born.
Earnestly,
Robert J. Muniz"
(I realize my letter may be a bit over the top, but unwarranted and erroneous bullshit like this Guy Adams interview really pisses me off...)

Wayne,
We all know the fellatio part of roasting a baby is a myth.
