This is about as old as it gets (1998 for crying out loud) but still funny as hell. Read it!
"When I was a family man, I constantly had to worry about things like taking the kids to Little League practice, paying for their braces, and remembering my wife's birthday. But now that I'm gay, I'm finally free to focus all my energy on having non-stop, mind-blowing anal sex."
AfterElton Reports that David Hyde Pierce is officially out.
The site claims that the guy who played Niles for a billion years on Frasier has finally come out. I guess?! He didn't really come out. His publicist "confirmed" that he's got a life partner. Mr. Pierce, as far as I can tell, has not released a personal statement.
Well, David, apparently everyone in Hollywood knows you are gay. Of course, everyone in Hollywood knows everyone in Hollywood is gay, but that's another story for another day.
Anyway, good for him. Another gay actor admits he's gay. Now all we have to do is convince the other 4,999,994 to come out.
A publicist for David Hyde Pierce yesterday confirmed for AfterElton.com that Pierce is gay and in a long term relationship with Brian Hargrove, a writer/producer/director in Hollywood. Speculation had long swirled around the actor who found fame playing Niles Crane for twelve years on the long running sitcom Frasier.
Pierce had frequently been asked about his private life, but always declined to discuss it. In an interview in the fall of 1993, a reporter for Emmy Magazine asked Pierce about the issue and was told, "Basically, I don't talk about my personal life." That was the stance he continued to adhere to over the years.

Most cats do not like getting wet - as anyone who has tried to bathe a moggie will know.
But as these pictures show, there's always the exception to the rule. For the cat in question is a large male white Bengal tiger called Odin.
Six years old, and at the prime of his life, Odin lives at the Six Flags Discovery Kingdom Zoo in Vallejo, near San Francisco. He is about 10ft long from nose to tail, and is an excellent swimmer.

This is so cute. There are also Gay Penguins (Roy and Silo) in New York City, but they haven't chosen to adopt yet. Originally from Towleroad:
LONDON (AFP) - A pair of gay flamingos have adopted an abandoned chick, becoming parents after being together for six years, a British conservation organisation said Monday.
Carlos and Fernando had been desperate to start a family, even chasing other flamingos from their nests to take over their eggs at the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust (WWT) in Slimbridge near Bristol.
This cute couple of comedians from Britain is claiming that they're going to get married on UK's Big Brother. If it's not a total prank, that would be cute and cool. From Towleroad:
James Joell and Stephen Ireland, a gay comedy duo and couple from Eastleigh, England say they've been added as housemates for the next edition of the UK's Big Brother. Friends of the couple say they plan to marry on the show, which starts May 30th.
...
The show's producers are remaining silent on the couple's inclusion, saying housemates are only confirmed when they pull up to the house in their cars on the program.
Apparently all those hundreds of gay leading men in Hollywood movies aren't really gay. They just like getting their butts rubbed by large penises for therapeutic reasons.
People in dark movie theaters will believe just about anything. A boy magically becoming "Big" overnight, the Terminator recast as a pregnant woman…and "Bennifer" in an unconventional romantic comedy. Okay, that last one didn't quite work out, but at least Hollywood took a shot.
But some people say that one thing Hollywood, and audiences, won't believe in, is an openly gay actor playing a leading man.
This is interesting news from the Fresno Bee.
The silver tiara matched his silver stilettos when Johnny Vera was named prom queen Saturday night at Roosevelt High School.
He's the first transgender prom queen in Fresno -- and possibly anywhere.
Vera's win probably didn't surprise anyone who had seen the prom queen candidates' speeches Friday in the quad during lunch. Vera, effeminate and towering in heels, had wrapped his manicured nails around the microphone.

From Ars Technica :
Roommates.com found itself on the wrong end of a judicial ruling yesterday as the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals found that asking questions about applicants' gender and sexual orientation removed the site's Safe Harbor protection under the Communications Decency Act.
...
So much for the question portion of the Roommates.com sign-up process. But there's also a free-form answer area at the end of the questions in which users can post anything that they want. The Judge notes in a series of footnotes that past responses have included, "The female we are looking for hopefully wont [sic] mind having a little sexual incounter [sic] with my boyfriend and I [very sic]" and "I am looking for asian/spanish persons to share the apartment." Some of the qualifications that appear in this section might also violate the Fair Housing Act, but the Court found that Roommates.com was not responsible for responses left on an open-ended form (one judge dissented from this part of the ruling).
This originally came from gay news blog. It's midnite, bedtime. I'm not going to dissect this article and what I believe are the legal ramifications. First of all, I'm not a supreme expert, and second I'm tired and cranky. However, I think it deserves mention because these legally married New York Gay people have literally thrown a big rock at the glass wall of DOMA and other legal rulings barring gay marriage, causing a big legal crack which can be taken advantage of.
BOSTON, May 15 — A little-noticed resolution to a case involving same-sex couples from New York will allow dozens of them to be considered legally married in Massachusetts, and apparently in their home state as well.
Those marriages are also expected to be considered legal in New York. John Milgrim, a spokesman for the office of that state’s attorney general, said, “Since 2004 it has been the position of the attorney general’s office that New York law presumptively requires the recognition of marriages validly performed in other jurisdictions.”
It's about fucking time. Goodbye, you old son of a bitch. I'll be dancing on your grave come morning. So will millions of gay people, black people, women ... oh hell, even Larry Flint's going to learn to walk just so he can walk all over your grave. Hope the worms get you quickly!
The openly gay coach of the Missouri men's lacrosse team was told his contract will not be renewed after nine seasons. Team leaders said Kyle Hawkins was dismissed because of his job performance, not his sexual orientation.
ACLU Gives Tennessee High School an F in Civics for Censoring Gay and Gay-Supportive Students Demands School Apologize and Promise Not to Censor in the Future...

I'd like to see this.
“No Regret” is an independent South Korean gay feature film created in 2006, by the country´s first openly gay filmmaker.
Don't these people have better things to do, like say, having sex with their farm animals or something?
Two Oregon bills that recognize same-sex domestic unions and a law banning discrimination against LGBT people in employment, housing and public accommodations is under fire from the American Taliban.
Have you ever seen the British Comedy Little Britain? It's hilarious.
Well, score one for homos and chubs/cubs/bears alike. Matt Lucas is openly gay. Yay for the only gay in the village!
Here are my photos from my trip to Phoenix Pride 2007 (April 12th, 13th, 14th, 15th).

Icky.
BOSTON — Proponents of gay marriage and state Democratic leaders are lobbying the national party in an effort to get a handful of state legislators to change position and vote to kill a proposed state constitutional amendment banning same-sex...
Score! From GayWired.com, the EU smacks down Poland's homophobic president:
The then Mayor of Warsaw, Lech Kaczynski , who is now President of Poland, violated three Articles of the European Convention of Human Rights when he banned Warsaw Gay Pride in 2005, the European Court of Human Rights ruled Thursday morning.
From Towleroad:
The Oregon Senate on Tuesday gave final legislative approval to House Bill 2007, which will give same-sex couples in the state all the benefits of marriage via domestic partnerships. The Oregon House passed the bill in mid-April. It will now go to Governor Ted Kulongoski for his signature.
I was just tooling around the internet, waiting for my last screenwriting class of the year to begin, when suddenly the name "Jack Osbourne" popped up. Don't ask where or how because I'm not about to check my history on this one. However, I started doing searches for the hairy little satyr, and voila, Jack Osborne, Naked.
When you visit the site, just ignore the bitchy, anorexic, hand-me-a-cheeseburger-before-I-faint whore who write that site. Just admire the photo.
Does anyone remember the episode of The Osbournes where Jack gets naked and runs around the house? Yeah, well, he was probably underaged at the time, but since everything was blurred out it was all good and safe. Still, I got a stiffy, which I can't normally say for 17 year olds. But Jack, my friend, you are 22 now! My digits are....
This is funny and sad at the same time. The "same sex marriage debate" hits MMORPGs. Sigh.
Rockwood posted the survey online and got responses from almost 10,000 people. Two-thirds of the respondents -- gay, straight and bisexual gamers -- said they felt the gaming community was either somewhat hostile or very hostile toward gay people.
More comedy, satire. Fun-e!
A tiny pathogen was discovered at MIT that causes people to be gay.
Okay, so this really happened? But it's funny anyway.
A woman's email to Telecom New Zealand's help-desk was rejected because the company's filter system found her name, Gay, "inappropriate for business-like communication," a newspaper reported on Sunday.
Of course this is old news. However, I'm really happy about it. I will be much more likely to visit bars once this smoking ban goes into effect.
The smoke in New Mexico bars and restaurants will soon fade into oblivion under a statewide smoking ban signed this morning by Gov. Bill Richardson.
...
The measure prohibits smoking in all workplaces across the state, including bars and restaurants. It takes effect June 15. Individuals violating the ban would face a $100 fine for a first violation.
This is a study abstract, not an article. Beware, lots of stats ahead.
