a keyboard, a second-grade education, and a powerful sense of entitlement





"A few years ago, I never would have thought that a 24-year-old gay man could have a chance in the world of music." Apparently, no one told Jai from Queer Eye about Elton John, Freddie Mercury, or Justin Timberlake.



Soccer chief says women footballers need tighter shorts. Hear, hear! Those shorts the volleyball women wear are AWESOME!



Mookie's linked to a list of the 100 Best Novels. I've read 13 on the board's list and 20 on the reader's list, so I guess I'm behind. And of the ones I read, I liked the ones on the reader's list better. The two that stand out for me are The World According to Garp (awesome book) and The Hunt For Red October (I was riding around in a submarine when that one came out). I also liked Watership Down by Richard Adams, but thought that his Shardik was a better book, it was an amazing story.



I've come up with a motto for my last 15 years - "Uncertainty is the Spice of Life". So are frivolity, variety, insanity, Lawrys Seasoned Salt, and Scary. During my research, I finally found that naked Spice Girls pic you've all been looking for. Just be advised that they "need cleaning" and "smell like they've been exposed to smoke".



Photos in the news:

Despite all his recent troubles, Michael Jackson has some serious competition in the "rich freak" category.

Speaking of competition, I pity the poor porn stars, who have a hard time keeping up with Paris and Britney when it comes to looking slutty. Or acting slutty, for that matter.



I had a big long serious post that I was gonna start today (it's so big it needs multiple parts!), but then I stopped and wondered if I really want to get off into big serious post territory. I'm more of a nugget guy. And don't worry, the post wasn't anything spicy or revealing - just my opinion on some things. I may get around to it later...I'm just not in the habit of posting things here that take more than 5 minutes to pop out, and I like to keep it light.



Todays funny Google hit - "do gay people like sponge bob". Well, duh, everyone likes SpongeBob! That's like asking "do gay people like breathing".



I really need a haircut. I'm on the verge of looking like James Traficant, it's that bad. I called Mr. Sugarmama's place Saturday, but they were way on the other side of town from me, so I blew it off. I gotta do something soon, though - I have lots of important social events to attend in the next few weeks (yeah, right).



The Sneeze is covering one of the funnier 80's movies you probably never saw, Better Off Dead. The first interview is with the guy who played Ricky, the dorky neighbor. There are a ton of classic scenes in that movie...my sister and I still yell "TWO - DOLLARS" at each other regularly. But we're weird like that. Check it out if you haven't seen it, it beats the pants off of Cusack's "big" 80's movie, Say Anything, which was too sappy for me.



3 Bruces is back! Well, they were never really gone, but there seem to be more updates lately. Maybe someone made a resolution. Check it out, funny stuff!
