Hillary Clinton appears on today’s season opener of the Ellen Degeneres show. Aside from another restating of non-support for same-sex marriage, which Degeneres lets slide without challenge, Clinton does a sit-down bit with Ellen at The Flame, a Hells Kitchen diner, in which Ellen directly asks about a potential Clinton-Obama ticket. Very interestingly, Clinton does not rule it out. She …

You’ll have to embiggen it to be able to read the text of this cartoon I found on Free Republic, where I often lurk on their “Homosexual Agenda” threads. They do almost as good a job of ferreting out news of gay interest as some mainstream gay media sites. Although the cartoon is intended to be mean-spirited, the author inadvertently …

Manhattan, Eagle roof-deck, Sunday 9pm Guy 1: Man, is Alan’s new boyfriend dumb or what? What a box of rocks! Guy 2: I don’t know, maybe it’s just his accent. Guy 3: I agree. He could totally be smart. In Spanish..

My buddy Carl was in town this weekend and snapped this pic on the subway. I’ve blogged about Manhattan Mini-Storage’s provocative anti-Bush and pro-choice ad campaigns and the pressure they are feeling from conservatives to stop. Now the company has launched a poll asking if they should back down from the right-wing. You know what to do.

In the 18th hour of this weekend’s Labor Day Muscular Dystrophy telethon, host Jerry Lewis appears to say “illiterate faggot” while live on the air. Unbelievable. Was Jerry Lewis ever funny? The gaffe was caught by eagle-ears over at After Elton and many other blogs and news sources, a few of whom say Lewis said “fatty”, not “faggot.” What do …

Sighing from the extra work, Lady Randomocity had to spin her wheel twice in one week, after last week’s Swag Tuesday winner was unresponsive to his email. However, spin #2 landed on the lovely Amy of Brooklyn, who immediately and succinctly reacted with a single, “YAY!” Amy gets the giant hardbook Playbill Broadway 2006-2007 Yearbook, now available on Amazon. New …

Once or twice I’ve made mocking posts about all the Lt. Uhurus running around with those ridiculous blinking Bluetooth earpieces, but this new “invisible” in-ear receiver seems a slight improvement. According to the linked Gizmodo article, this radio frequency receiver is “capable of receiving transmissions from mobile phones, walkie-talkies and specialized transmitters, with a range of 250 meters.” I suppose …

Courtesy of Showtime, this week’s Swag Tuesday haul is the 4-disc box set of the first season of Dexter, their critically raved and deeply strange series about a police detective who moonlights as a serial killer.Dexter is based on the compelling novel “Darkly Dreaming Dexter” by Jeff Lindsay. Orphaned at the age of four and harboring a traumatic secret, Dexter …

Police arrested three patrons for sales and 12 for use and possession of marijuana, cocaine and ecstasy. Swooping in at 4:35am, vice cops described the scene as an “open-air drugs market.” Also busted: 17 nightclub staffers were arrested under a charge of “criminal nuisance”, meaning that …

Lakeside brunch at Central Park’s Boathouse is a little pricey, but it’s a classic Manhattan experience.

“My gut wrenched when I read of Sen. Larry Craig‘s bathroom arrest. I remembered my own late-night encounter with the law at a Garden State Parkway rest stop following a political dinner in north Jersey. I pulled into the rest stop, parked my car, flashed my headlights, which was “the signal,” and waited. Glancing in my rearview mirror, I saw …

As expected, Sen. Larry Craig resigned today, saying, “The people of Idaho deserve a senator who can devote 100 percent of his time and effort to the critical issues of our state and of our nation. Therefore it is with sadness and deep regret that I announce that it is my intent to resign from the Senate, effective September 30th.” …

“When you look at this recent photo of Britney Spears, are you thinking what I’m thinking? I mean, that’s an awesome handbag, am I right?” – Leigh Ann Wilson on Lock The Bedroom Door. I don’t usually make these kind of posts, but Wilson’s quote was irresistible.
