OMG, OMG, it's the Pope.
Yellow hanky bong hits for the Pope! The biggest drag queen in the world is here in DC for the week. I hope to avoid any traffic congestion associated with his visit, but that is my extent of my passion for the man. As far as I'm concerned, Sunday mornings are for establishing rapport with higher powers through the dream state. And Sunday mornings are for brunch and Bloody Marys too.
This Passover Saturday, Renegades alumni and friends of the 'gades are encouraged to come to our only home match of the season at 1pm on April 19 at Cardozo High School field, 1300 Clifton St. NW, Washington, DC. Field entrance is at 13th St. and Florida Ave. NW. The match will be vs. our friends the Philadelphia Gryphons. Social to follow at Stoney's, 1433 P St. NW, between 14th and 15th St. We'll be upstairs.
And the excitement won't stop there - all weekend it's the big 'ol Cherry Weekend celebration, with venues all over town, including Saturday night at the 9:30 Club. I'd expect to see the Pope trying to sneak in through the back door, or at least a couple of his underlings here and there. Judging by the state of my body last Saturday after a rugby match, it is highly unlikely Grampaw Jimbo will be able to make any of the events. My body is just too beat up to boogie this time of the year.
A cautionary note to the indie 'mos and angertwinks who are too cool for school: you probably won't find that new gay at a Cherry event, but it shouldn't preclude you from having some fun once in a while. Wipe that grumpy sourpuss off your face, take your shirt off and have at it. No cherry-colored letter will be permanently branded to your soul if you cut loose and have some fun once in a while. Jeez...kids are so frikkin' serious these days!
Margaret Cho last Friday was good for a few belly laughs and she definitely has the green stamp of approval for recycling - her old material, that is. And perhaps Kelly's best venue is the Internet, because 'Shoes' live just didn't really have the charm that it does on YouTube.
I heard somewhere that Ace of Base has reunited and are on tour? Unless it was somebody's cruel joke on me...I'd go see them if they came through DC, even though they're Swedish and not Norwegian. I'm not racist.

We're bracing for Papal Visit Red Alert here in NYC this weekend... Oh what fun that's going to be. *sigh*
And yes, Ace of Base are reuniting... sans one chick. Who cares though as long as the hot guy with the goatee is still aboard!
Why is he huffing urine? That is so wrong.
I was a little worried I might be one of those TNG's, but then I realized that I don't go out anymore because a) I work 15 hr nights and am usually too damn tired to bother, b)My young and single days are long past and I'd rather spend my little bit of free time at home, watching movies and cuddling, and c)I live in Maine, for fuck's sake.
The man and I did go to the HRC True Colors concert in Boston last year, though (since you mentioned Margaret Cho).
Comeon Jimbo. Slap some Bengay on those sore muscles. I'm traveling to DC from Michigan this weekend and I expect to see you rockin your jellies on the dance floor! :)
Exactly what Homer said! To hell with the bong, he's huffing pee!
What the fuck IS that in the bottle? No, seriously, I have no clue... what is it?
Maybe the Pope is doing a drug screen on a police horse? You have to make sure the temp of the cup is warm to make sure no one substituted someone else's pee. Maybe that is what he is doing?
Where are The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence when a city needs them? Jimbo, this is a quote from some folks that I work for,"The living room carpet went to the JPII Center for the Pope to walk on." Now how ridiculous is that!
For those of you wondering, he's huffing chrism - olive oil blended with a special fragrance that's used to anoint people at Baptism and Confirmation, and to consecrate new altars. The consecration of it is the highlight of the Chrism Mass during Holy Week. I know, more Catholic trivia than you ever wanted.
Um... that's not the pope...
