It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me.

If The World Were A Village of 100 People: Issue No. 10 - Education

We are halfway there!  This is the 10th poster out of the 20 posters I have shared with you over the past several months.

Every week I have been asking, "What if the world were a village of 100 people?"  And by using statistics based on the spread of the population in the world, Toby Ng Design created these posters as another way of looking at how our world is today.

Dropped From Country Music Record Label? Become A Supermodel

So what happens when you're an up and coming country music star, and get signed on to a record label? 

Make lots of money and become a famous Nashville star!!!

Not so much. You become a supermodel and become best friends with a really hot guy named Rodiney Santiago.  LOL.

Actually, Josey Greenwell, the gorgeous country music singer you see on your left, had it all going for him until he was kicked off a record label for being gay.
    "After we had been recording for months, they found out I was gay and dropped me from the record label and debut album wasn't released. I ended up finishing the project myself and spent all that year promoting it myself and trying to get any kind of help I could. They said, "Music isn't ready for something as controversial as you and we sure as hell won’t be the first label to have it."

    I don't think that is true at all and actually think music is READY for someone like me to come along! Music can put someone on such a pedestal and it's up to them whether or not they use that for the greater good and I definitely feel like I am not only strong enough, but now brave enough to be able to stand up for millions of people out there just like me and stand as a role model with my music."
I don't know about you, but I think Nashville really fucked up on this one. Literally. Geezus, this guy is beautiful!  

And not forgetting to mention, his friend Rodiney isn't so bad either. 

Check out Josey and Rodiney singing a cover to Britney Spear's "How I Roll". They're so cute together :-).

Oh, and two more hot pics after the jump...

To Troll A Predator... with... Batman

So what do you do when Chris Hansen is no longer around to film "To Catch A Predator"?  Watch Batman's version of it.  LMAO!
OMG, Ryan and I used to love watching this show.  The premise of the show, which aired on MSNBC, was to catch adults preying on underage youth usually around 13-15, through online chat rooms.  Do these still exist?  

In either case, a house would be used to draw these men to it, with the hope that they would meet the teenage kid they were chatting with to have sex.  The decoy, who was either a boy or girl (never really looked like a teenager), was used in the filming of this show.  After inviting them in they would leave to get some "lemonade" or "to change clothes",  and Chris Hansen would pop out and say, "I'm Chris Hansen, with Dateline NBC."

This would spook the predator, but they would rarely attempt to leave without saying a word to Hansen, but guess what?  They weren't going anywhere, the cops were waiting outside for them.  Some of these were preachers, teachers, and fathers with teenagers of their own.  And the things they would say, were "out of this world" ridiculous.

Well... Since Chris Hansen isn't around, Batman has come to the rescue.  Sounds kinda funny, right?  But this guy is actually helping you see a reality which happens way too often.

A man dressed as Batman has been creating fake online accounts and chatting with older men in order to lure them into meeting for sex.  When they show up at an unspecified location, he confronts them with his raspy "Batman" voice.  LOL. Hey whatever works, right?  Maybe this will make the predator think twice before he does it again.  Check out a hero at work...  The online messages are NSFW, it's rather descriptive.

Median Net Worth

It pains me to see close friends and past co-workers having a difficult time finding a job.  And it also pains me to know that I work with a nurse who's daughter just graduated college, and can't find work anywhere.  She has a Bachelor's degree, spent over 150,000 in college loans and no job to help pay that off.  So while Republicans are finding ways to make it harder on students, the elderly, and Latinos to vote in 2012, they are also blocking legislation which could help our college students with another major crisis - their debt.
Adding salt to the wounds of the new lost generation:
According to analysis by the Pew Research Center released Monday, younger Americans have been left behind as the oldest generation has seen wealth surge since the mid-1980s.

While it’s typical for older generations to hold more wealth than younger ones who’ve had less time to save, the gap between the two age groups has widened rapidly.

In 1984, households headed by people age 65 and older were worth just 10 times the median net worth of households headed by people 35 and younger.

But now that gap has widened to 47-to-one, marking the largest wealth gap ever recorded between the two age groups.

Sebastian, Kurt and Blaine Love Triangle on Glee

I'm so looking forward to "The First Time" episode on Glee, and I know all you gay boys are too!  As many of you already know, the Dalton Academy has a new gay student and his name is Sebastian.  Oh my! He's a cutie patootie!  So, of course he has the hots for Blaine whom we all know is stuck in a relationship with Kurt.

LOL, just kidding.  Geez. Don't scream!

But seriously, can't Blaine end up with Sebastian?  That would be like so totally hot!  In either case, the new boy is actively pursuing a "married man", which happens way too often in our corner of the world.  And Sebastian has no shame in doing it either, even after Blaine informs him that he has a man, the boy tells him Kurt doesn't have to know. Check out the video above to see Kurt's reaction. LOL.

Couples Dynamics

Okay, this is wrong on so many levels, but how right is it?  

So let's see... if you see an "Ugly Male" with a "Beautiful Female" more than likely, "He Is Rich."  If you see a "Handsome Male" with another "Handsome Male," more than likely, "He's Gay".  No Business.

Check out this handy little tool, copy it, laminate it and place it in your wallet.  And the next time you come across ugly and beautiful people, you will have something to measure them up to.

How To Tell If Your's Son Is Gay

The new Android app called, "Is My Son Gay".  Has been causing a lot of fuss lately, but I think it's actually kinda funny.  The questions are absolutely hilarious and stupid.  

For example, "Are you divorced?, Does he like football?, Before he was born did you wish he would be a girl?, Does he like Diva singers?, Does he have a tongue, nose or ear piercing?"

No, I didn't download the damn thing.  But I did want to share this hilarious list by Richard Lawson over at Gawker that I found was more in par with finding out if your son is gay or not.
  • If you come home from work and you hear noises upstairs and you go up to investigate and your son's door is open and you catch him "hooking up" (as kids call it today) with his friend Michael, and you quickly turn around and walk back downstairs and later that night over dinner you say "You know, honey, if there's ever anything you need to tell me..." and he says "Mom, I'm gay," then your son is gay.
  • If your son has recently gone to college and hasn't been in touch much and you figure hey he's new to college, he's busy making friends and whatnot, and then late one night he calls you on the phone sounding upset about something and you ask him what's wrong and he's quiet for a while and then says "Nothing's wrong, really, I'm just... Dad, I'm gay," then your son is gay.
  • Has your son ever been on a long drive to one of your daughter's swim meets with you and when stopped at a red light he's turned to you and said "Mom, I feel like I owe it to you and dad to tell you that, well, Donald is my boyfriend. I'm gay"? Then your son is probably gay.
  • Chances are that if you are on your deathbed and your estranged son comes to visit you in the middle of a rainy night and he sits by your bed quietly until he begins to cry and clutches your hand and says "I wish I'd told you sooner that I'm gay" and then you both stay there in silence, you pretending to be asleep, the only noise the beeping of the machines that will only keep you alive for a little while longer, your son is gay.
  • If you and your spouse are ever visiting your son in the big city he now lives in with all his fancy friends and fancy restaurants and you're out to an awkward lunch before your train home and you three get into another pointless fight about years-old stuff and it's really uncomfortable and finally you or your spouse says "Well, if you'd just settle down with the right girl, I think-" and then your son interrupts you by yelling "Guys, I'm GAY. Gay gay gay, gay as gay gets. Have you seen where I live, I mean... God you two are thick. I'm gay. Deal with it," and then you sit there uncomfortably until the check comes and he gives you stiff hugs at the train station and you don't see him or talk to him until Christmas, then he is gay.
  • If your wacky son brings a boy home for dinner after play practice and you two are joking while you do the dishes and he says to you "Hey Ma, so... I'm not gay, but my boyfriend is!" and then you laugh and muss his hair and in the living room your husband shows your son's boyfriend his model ships, then your son is probably gay, though he might be bisexual, so be careful about labeling.
  • If your son ever says "Oh my goodness," when surprised or when opening a gift, well then yeah, he's probably gay.

What a Hot Mess: Facebook Friendship Goes Up In Flames

I suggest the next time you try to remove someone from your friend's list on Facebook, you not give them your address.  Otherwise you'll end up with no house, and possibly a dead husband next to you.  What a hot mess! Literally!

Yep, Jennifer Christine Harris pictured here, went all psycho on Jim and Nikki Rasmussen, after Nikki and Jennifer got into a dispute on Facebook, that ended their friendship.  According to Detective Jack Kamerick, the dispute had much to do with a Facebook event the former-best friends were planning.

"Jen asked Nikki to create an event on Facebook for a party.  Nikki did as suggested, and as the date for the party approached there were a lot of 'declines,' on Facebook. It was looking like the party might be a bust. The dispute apparently blossomed." according to the Detective.

Yep, it takes a puppy a full year to put himself together.  Hence the reason, this fabulous chart was created. So that you can see that without enough vitamin D and Calcium, a puppy's legs could grow crooked during his first year.

Wait, I Forget, Is It Ann Coulter or Mike Huckabee Who Hates Us More?


Seeing homophobes Mike Huckabee and Ann Coulter sitting down together brings a special feeling to our hearts. Especially when the pair of them start bickering about who hates gay people more: The bigot blonde bimbet or the failed president who hides his hate behind religion. 

Well, I See No Reason To Shower at U. of M. Anymore!

I'll just take my towel and go elsewhere. I'm sure the hall pipes at University of Houston can accommodate me just fine! 

Things To Do When The Internet Is Down

Oh what to do, what to do...  Sounds about right. LOL.  Ask God, "Why me?"

HALLELOO!!! - Drag Race Zombies!

Another teaser from RuPaul's Drag Race has hit the small screen, and it's going to be a doozy.  Yep.  Zombies!  I told you last week, it's all about the Zombies, remember?




I sooooo cannot wait for the 4th season of RuPaul's Drag Race.  It's going to be an  Extravaganza, Eleganza!!

Must Watch - Must Read: President Josiah Bartlet on Homosexuality

Ryan and I are currently watching one of the greatest shows ever to air on network television, The West Wing

Last night, we had the pleasure of watching our new favorite episode to date, titled "The Midterms". It's memorable because of what President Josiah Bartlet told a Dr. Schlessinger character aka Dr. Jacobs.  

She was told by the President, "I like your show. I like how you call homosexuality an abomination."  And she responded, "I don’t say homosexuality is an abomination, Mr. President. The Bible does."

The President's reply was absolutely awesome, and astounding.  Check out the small script below, better yet, watch the video I attached.

President Josiah Bartlet: [addressing a radio personality party in the White House, entering room to applause] Thank you. Thank you very much. Thanks a lot. I wish I could spend more than a few minutes with you, but the polls don’t close in the east for another hour, and there are plenty of election results still left to falsify.
[everyone laughs]

President Josiah Bartlet: I’m sorry. Uh, you’re Dr. Jenna Jacobs, right?
Dr. Jenna Jacobs:
Yes, Sir.
President Josiah Bartlet: It’s good to have you here.
Dr. Jenna Jacobs: Thank you.
President Josiah Bartlet: The awesome impact of the airwaves and how that translates into the furthering of our national discussions, but also obviously how it can… Forgive me, Dr. Jacobs. Are you an M.D.?
Dr. Jenna Jacobs: A Ph.D.
President Josiah Bartlet: A Ph.D.
Dr. Jenna Jacobs: Yes, Sir.
President Josiah Bartlet: In psychology?
Dr. Jenna Jacobs: No, Sir.
President Josiah Bartlet: Theology?
Dr. Jenna Jacobs: No.
President Josiah Bartlet: Social work?
Dr. Jenna Jacobs: I have a Ph.D. in English literature.
President Josiah Bartlet: I’m asking ‘cause on your show, people call in for advice and you go by the name Dr. Jacobs on your show, and I didn’t know if maybe your listeners were confused by that and assumed you had advanced training in psychology, theology or health care.
Dr. Jenna Jacobs: I don’t believe they are confused. No, Sir.
President Josiah Bartlet:Good. I like your show. I like how you call homosexuality an abomination.
Dr. Jenna Jacobs: I don’t say homosexuality is an abomination, Mr. President. The Bible does.
President Josiah Bartlet: Yes, it does. Leviticus.
Dr. Jenna Jacobs: 18:22.
President Josiah Bartlet: Chapter and verse. I wanted to ask you a couple of questions while I had you here. I’m interested in selling my youngest daughter into slavery as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. She’s a Georgetown sophomore, speaks fluent Italian, always cleared the table when it was her turn. What would a good price for her be? While thinking about that, can I ask another? My Chief of Staff Leo McGarry insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly says he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself, or is it okay to call the police? Here’s one that’s really important ‘cause we’ve got a lot of sports fans in this town: Touching the skin of a dead pig makes one unclean. Leviticus 11:7. If they promise to wear gloves, can the Washington Redskins still play football? Can Notre Dame? Can West Point? Does the whole town really have to be together to stone my brother John for planting different crops side by side? Can I burn my mother in a small family gathering for wearing garments made from two different threads? Think about those questions, would you? One last thing: While you may be mistaking this for your monthly meeting of the Ignorant Tight-Ass Club, in this building, when the President stands, nobody sits.

How many of you remember this dog from back in September?  He balanced 36 treats on his nose, and I was sure he had me beat on Jenga.

Well the pooch is back with a whole new balancing act.  It seems the earlier video was just his warm up.  This time he's not holding back.  He does it upside down, while lying on his back!
