Is there some game going on this weekend?
Ski Brokeback! Take a close look at the names of the runs down the slopes.
The Southern states are getting more snow than the Mid-Atlantic this season. Send some of that powder our way! My board is waxed and ready to go, but the weather has not been cooperating.
Mark yer calendars: the Washington Renegades Rugby Football Club, is hosting a big gay rugby tournament for all the Mid-Atlantic and east coast teams on May 19th. It'll be at Gravelly Point by National Airport, which is always a nice place to play as the jets fly overhead and the Washington Monument is in the background.
I guess I'm glad I share my last name with a real gun, not some Super Soaker or pastry gun.
On heavy rotation this week, the appropo 'STFU' by Revolucian...STFU as in sampling from Babs. It just fit so well as the soundtrack for this week.
Watch out for Gay Bands. OMG I had a vague idea that Bob Mould was gay, but didn't have a clue about Metallica.
Sorry, Mary: think your baby isn't political? Your baby became political when the party you chose to work for decided to use people like you as a campaign tool. But I guess you thought you weren't like the people your father's party demonized for 8 years, but welcome to the world that you made.
St. Olaf is real, not a fictional place Rose Nylund went to get her degree. And they have a choir and they're coming for you.
Apparently there is some major sporting event going on this weekend. The only bowl of importance to me already happened.
HAPPY WOODCHUCK DAY!

According to this list:
- Ted Nugent is gay because he wears a loincloth (which, I suppose, should then theoretically make all cavemen gay).
- George Michael is from... Texas.
- There's a question as to whether or not Morrissey is gay (do these people have the same clue phones as Ted Haggard's ex-flock does?).
- Frank Sinatra sang songs about homosexuality. Jilly and the Ring-a-Ding Kid are 'mos? I knew it all along.
ANd... GO BEARS! :-)

My friend S. me a slightly homoerotic Metallica-related anecdote from when he used to live in San Francisco and was friends/roommates with a girl who was dating James Hetfield (or maybe Kirk, I can't remember). On one occasion the three of them were tripping on mushrooms and ended up laying on a bed together. James started groping S.'s leg thinking it was the girl's; S. responded, "not that I'm telling you to stop or anything, but do you realize who's leg you're groping?" Then James freaked out and ran screaming from the room.

The St Olaf's choir special on PBS is one of the things I look forward to each Christmas; wouldn't be a holiday without them.

Gay metal? Manowar qualifies:

St. Olaf Choirs ROCK! I guess it's all the hours of rehearsal they put in while it's snowing. Their Christmas shows are stunning. That is, when PBS actually decides to air them...
