CLAGS: LBGT or LBGTST or LGBTQ Can you say "LGBTST" 10 times quickly? If not, you'd better learn, or you'll be lost at the indoctrination sessions that CUNY's Center for Lesbian and Gay Studies (CLAGS) has planned for this semester. The topic of February 7's panel, held at Baruch College, was "Imagining the Future: Exploring the Agenda of the LGBTQ Movement." Q stands for "queer" here – it's unclear how queer differs from L, G, B, or T, if at all – but such are the vagaries of progressive nomenclature. LGBTST – another variant used at the conference – stands for "Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Two-Spirit, Transgendered." Apparently, "two-spirit" is Native American for queer. But don't get hooked on it, because as soon as you get it down, you'll have to accommodate the Zulu term for pederasty and the Maori word for tribade, or some such. But, hey, concessions must be made to the disenfranchised, even if it means that gay monikers are starting to look like German nouns. Norah Vincent—"The Future of Queer: Wedded to Orthodoxy"-- Village Voice, February 22 A Tinky Winky Outer Goes Voting
While I cannot legally endorse a candidate on behalf of my ministries,
I personally endorsed George W. Bush months ago. I truly believe he is a
man of honor, integrity and leadership skills. He knows Christ and he
lives his faith every day. I admire him and believe he will be a great
president, if God allows him to be elected.

Drug Dealers Supreme They ain't never curing AIDS. That ain't where the money is. The money is in drugs, that's where the money is…Do you think Cadillac would ever make a car that lasts fifty years? They could, but there ain't no money in that. Chris Rock—"The Chris Rock Show"—HBO, February 18 The Food of Love Music may soothe the troubled breast. It might even be the food of love. But how does it cast it's spell? Romantics can take comfort from the fact that science does not yet have all the answers. The Economist—"The Biology of Music"—February 12 |

I have hair plugs! When I starved and lost 123 pounds, all my hair fell out. This
is all a hair transplant. This is 1900 hair plugs!…I don't lie to people. I lost my nails.
I lost protein. I had to wear a turban to keep them in place to grow. That reminds
me of the Norma Desmond look.
