Reminder: Porno Bingo Tonight
Tonight I’ll be calling numbers at Will Clark’s Porno Bingo, which will benefit NYC’s Gotham Knights gay rugby club. The event begins at 9PM in Hell’s Kitchen at the Ninth Avenue Bistro. What does one wear to porno bingo? I have a feeling that by the end of the night, I’ll be a little tipsy. “Beeee-ssssheven!”

Legally Blonde, The Musical has begun previews and officially opens April 29th. I’d totally make fun of this, but I’m eagerly waiting for Young Frankenstein, The Musical, so I have no room to talk.

Rosanne Barr, for many years a staunch supporter of the gay community, made some rather surprising remarks on the radio yesterday.

(That Like The Fellas)
New Yorker Jonny “The Gay Pimp” McGovern’s new song, Somethin’ For The Fellas (That Like The Fellas), is loaded with wailing divas, strutting queens, and lots of boy-on-boy action. Therefore, totally NSFW. Catchy track, the line “my mussy’s on fire” made me laugh, and but my favorite McGovern track is still 2005’s Soccer Practice.

The New York School Of Interior Design, located on the Upper East Side, is a private, not-for-profit college. The school motto is “We’re just not feeling this window treatment.” Right now the school is having an exhibit on the history of “prefabricated housing”. Since I live just down the block, I think I’m going to stop in and revisit my …

Have I complained about the weather yet? Have I complained about the radiators in my apartment making more noise than the annual Ghosts of Christmas Past convention? Have I complained lately about the miserable chattering pigeons in my airshaft that wake me up at 5am every morning? Have I complained about the guy upstairs who just got a new monster …

“Oopsie. Here’s your foreskin back. Keep it in a warm dry place. We’ll be happy to take it out of your hands later, if you are among the millions suffering from ESPS (Excessive Sexual Pleasure Syndrome.)” The New York Department of Health issued a statement today saying that the New York Times had “misrepresented” its response to the recent UN/WHO …
