Carson Kressley responds to a homophobic Australian radio host who called him a pompous prig and a pillow biter: “All that fuss over little old me. The prig part I will take, I don’t even know what that means. It sounds like an apricot and a fig mixed together, some sort of exotic fruit which is very accurate when describing me. He called me a pompous prig (and) I really took offence to being called pompous. Everyone should be able to speak their mind as long as they are not telling lies, but I’m not pompous.” A gay rights activist, Gary Burns, filed a complaint against the host and a local commission ruled in Burns’ favor after the outburst.
Gael García Bernal plays with balls soft as cotton.
NBA players Paul Pierce, Danny Fortson, and Robert Parish react to the notion of a gay among them.
Parish: “Pro sports are all about macho, having that chip on your shoulder from all that testosterone flowing through the locker room. Nothing’s taboo in a pro locker room, except family members. Everything else is free game. It’s a male chauvinist environment at its highest. A player like that could even suffer some bodily harm if he wasn’t careful. I’m afraid we’ve got a long ways to go. I know I won’t see a change in my lifetime. Maybe my children’s lifetime, though.”
Man kills five point deer with bare hands in Arkansas. “For 40 exhausting minutes, Wayne Goldsberry battled a buck with his bare hands in his daughter’s bedroom. Goldsberry finally subdued the five-point whitetail deer that crashed through a bedroom window at his daughter’s home Friday. When it was over, blood splattered the walls and the deer lay dead on the bedroom floor, its neck broken.” Said Deputy Doug Gay: “He got kicked several times. He was walking bowlegged for a while. At this time of year, a buck that sees its reflection in a window often charges, believing it is fighting off a rival.”
