Sea urchins / Ann Coulter / NY resolution

This is too bad, I like Eli Roth. He's an intelligent fan and creator of horror films.

Eli Roth Stung

Why couldn't it have been SARAH PALIN STUNG BY SEA URCHINS instead. Or DICK CHENEY DEVOURED BY DRIVER ANTS. Or maybe ANN COULTER GORED BY UNICORN.

Also, I have made a belated new year's resolution: to stop exercising. It's just too hard. To quote the great Karen Walker of Will & Grace: Exercise is for fat people. Actually she never said that, but it sounds like something she might've said.

Alas, my career in hospitality has come to a scudding halt. I'm looking for a job in San Francisco. Preferably a paying one.

Gay pride goeth before a fall

Adam Lambert from American Idol (which I've never watched) is on the cover of Rolling Stone talking about how he's gay and took psychedelic mushrooms at Burning Man. It's always kind of funny, and kind of annoying to see how long it takes the mainstream to acknowledge things that many of us have known about/experienced for so long that we're kind of bored by them now. I'm really tired of hearing people say they're "proud" to be gay.

Look. Being gay is not something you should have to be ashamed of. But it's not something to be PROUD of, either. Let's find a nice middle ground where you don't have to be either ashamed or proud, you can just be yourself without going to either extreme. Stonewall happened a long time ago, you know. Dick Cheney just came out in support of gay marriage, for chrissakes. (Not that it matters, since Dick Cheney no longer - thank God - holds any public office.)

Speaking of which...this weekend is Gay Pride. I may attend some of it, out of curiosity. It's really just an excuse to party for a couple days, drink, and possibly hook up, right? That by any other name would be as fun.

Waterboarding: not just for illegally detained prisoners any more

Just now on Keith Olbermann: a conservative radio host (I believe the nickname is "Mancow") who volunteered to be waterboarded to prove it isn't torture caved after 6 seconds, admitting that it was "absolutely torture" and that he would admit anything under such duress.

Excellent. Now let's get Dirty Dick Cheney on the board. That I want to see.
