The Drag Queen Posse

Business Week gets the kudo for breaking the story about Wall St. getting vaccines before Main St.?

While the news certainly IS outrageous, please keep this whole media hysteria in perspective:

36,000 people (90% over the age of 65) die from flu-related illness each year, in the USA alone, most of them respiratory.

This year, WORLDWIDE, there have been only 1,170 deaths from H1N1; despite .5 M people contracting it. Those, are pretty good fucking odds against the “deadly swine flu!”

Eat some yogurt or some other probiotic, take some vitamin C, drink water, and if you have a fever - some ibuprofen or an aspirin! THEN call your doctor for some painkillers, sweetie!

Cheers, and a pisser to the Bankers!

We tend to agree…Halloween is essentially the Queer New Year.

There’s nothing like Hoyle’s dead-pan humor…

‘Meds’ by ‘Placebo.’

For those who didn’t take the vocabulary pop-quiz, ‘placebo’ as a band name is ironic in this context, as a ‘placebo’ is usually a sugar pill in blind test studies done to determine the efficacy of a drug in a control group.

OK…love the bunny ears and the afro…work it out and wear it on your next flight.

Also, we think the white ears one is definitely gay…check out that ‘White Party’ posing and posturing around the 1:30 mark…

In case you’re wondering, the music is the “remix” of the Star Wars theme…yes, full-on nerd!

She tends at Beauty Bar in downtown Las Vegas, near Fremont St.

Blond, brainless, fundamentalist sell-out, and all-around dumb, opportunist bitch, Ms. Carrie Prejean (yes, the ex-Ms. California fucktard who set off a firestorm of controversy on the Ms. America pageant when she said she believed marriage was an institution only for hetero couples), has apparently dropped her multi-million dollar suit against the pageant holders for “religious discrimination” because one of the Pageant lawyers played his trump card: a hard-core sex tape where she is the star and in which she also engages in a solo sex act!

Witnesses at the arbitration apparently saw Ms. Prejean BOLT from the room, her lawsuit now dropped, and the Pageant lawyers paying a paltry $100k - all to pay her legal expenses and not a penny of which will go to her.

Ms. Prejean is also accused by the pageant holders of failing to repay $5,200.00 for the breast augmentation, which was paid for out of CA taxpayers’ pockets! Oh, yeah! Their counter-suit alleges that Ms. Prejean broke her contract (by not showing up at scheduled appearances) and lied about semi-nude photos! Oh, well…

Have fun crawling back into the arms of the religious right wing-nuts, Carrie (b/c they’re ALL GOING TO LAUGH AT YOU!!!), we’re sure they’ll find you a job, and/or get you married to some famous/religious/closeted guy who needs a good beard.

We hear Tom’s got some problems…

Said one Pageant insider:

“We’re so glad to be back in the business of beauty and out of the litigious system that is Carrie Prejean,” Keith Lewis, of K2 Productions, told the Daily News. “It’s wonderful to put this behind us.”

This hilarious videos, and other genius, original (and some GLBT) shorts are available at: Reckless Tortuga. (Tortuga in Spanish means “Turtle.”)

Why?

According to the latest USA Army statistics, a mind-blowing 70% of military age citizens (17 - 24) cannot join because they are (one, combo, or all): fat (er, obese!), dumb/didn’t pass high school nor get a G.E.D. (can’t pass the simple Army entrance exams!? - which are designed for an I.Q. of 100!!!), and/or have previous arrest records.

So, to combat this problem, they are telling youth to return when they’ve lost the weight, study while losing the weight, and for those with previous criminal records, to apply for a “conduct” waiver. Oh, boy, nothing like giving an accused criminal a gun and allowing them to roam free in a country they are too fat to be in safely, and too dumb to understand and comport themselves with civility and otherwise good judgment.

We want you as a new recruit! By any chance are you Canadian? We can get you nationalized double-quick!

With about 87% of the precincts reporting, the “Yes on 1″ crowd voting to repeal marriage equality won by 53% of the vote, with about 50% of the electorate of Maine coming out to vote.

Oddly, they expanded the use of medical marijuana, but at the same time, shot down higher taxes. We suggest doing a two-fer: legalize cannabis and tax it.

Incidentally, Bob McDonnell is not the governor-elect of Virginia, and Mr. Chris Christie is now the governor-elect of New Jersey.

Enjoy it while you can, Mr. President, as 2010 places the majority (filibuster-proof) we have in the House at stake, a third of the Senate, and 37 other governor’s mansions are up for grabs. If you are going to implement change, our advice is not to wait…

Let’s see, that’s two states (CA & ME) where the voters’ closed minds repealed equality. We see it harder for the President to take a political gamble on our side for much longer. Indeed, we now see the Supreme Court shying away from hearing this, if at all - perhaps throwing the issue back to the individual states.

Keep on trudging troops, we have a long way to go…

According to the Jamaican Star, the town of McGregor Gully has made it clear they will eradicate the GLBT presence in their community by any means necessary.

So much for those “all inclusive” ‘Hedonism‘ resorts on the island, eh? We guess not “everything goes” there anymore — trust us, we’ve been there, regrettably.

Fucked again.

We wonder what the Tourism Board of Jamaica will have to say, seeing as how it’s the only thing that keeps the people of that island from quite literally starving to death. The employees of ‘Hedonism’ make $1 per hour - yes, you read that right. People FIGHT for those jobs. Why? Simply put, they pay the best salaries on the island - and they can keep their tips. So, they may not hate you to your face, but just don’t expect them to be friendly the second one of your toes leaves the compound of your resort.

We’d recommend a boycott of any travel to Jamaica from now on, because there are nicer places to go. You can visit Puerto Rico without the need for a passport, and/or the U.S. Virgin Islands — if you REALLY want a Caribbean vacation. Plus, who wants to go on vacation, and experience racism? Trust us, Jamaicans HATE anyone who is remotely Caucasian, that includes Hispanics. If you’re not Black, you’re simply not welcome to be anywhere - save at your hotel. While this is a broad, general statement, because we’re sure there are some open-minded, nice people who are not bloody racists and/or homophobes, they are VERY few and far between.

Take your money somewhere else.

Here is a great article from New York Mag, detailing how complacent the younger generation is that did not witness the genocide of GLBT people during the outbreak of the HIV pandemic. It also delves deeper into the personal lives and medical histories of those whom have been lucky enough to survive through some of the newer medications (which can practically drop your viral load to “undetectable” levels), but, the effects on their bodies are only now being more fully understood.

As you might have guessed, the information/data that’s starting to come in, does not bode well.

The Associated Press is being real meddlesome, so, we have to link you to the article.

Way to go, chica!

Sir Ian McKellen, regarded and renowned as one of the greatest stage and screen actors of the last 40 years, has his own method for waging his private battle against those who would use the Bible as a means to oppress GBLT people such as himself. Mr. McKellen came out in 1988, far from when it was considered “fashionable” nor “safe” to do so for a public persona in the arts; in other words, career suicide. His method? Every hotel he visits, he makes it a point to rip out the pages of Leviticus that supposedly condemn homosexuality. In fact, those pages are denouncing forced homosexual acts, or those involving homosexual prostitution and/or such acts committed at a temple/synagogue.

However, no one bothers to read the little details. Leviticus also condemns those who eat shellfish (like crab, lobster, shrimp), and pork, wearing clothes of more than one material, working on the Sabbath day (depending upon your Christian/Jewish sect, this day is also open to interpretation), even talking back to your parents! So, who wants to get in line first? ALL the employees of USPS? Fed-Ex? DHL? Anyone and everyone who has ever eaten shellfish or even handled it at a restaurant, your next! Pretty much anyone in the modern world who wears clothing. As for talking back to your parents? Everyone else get in line!

PLUS, TIX ON SALE NOW FOR THE KINSEYS’ NEW HOLIDAY SHOW IN SAN FRANCISCO AND SEATTLE!

The Kinsey Sicks have announced plans to, um, mistakenly take off in an experimental hot air balloon this weekend in a desperate bid to publicize their next tour. The balloon will launch accidentally near Cincinnati; the faux-pas will take place again the following day in Central Ohio. If everything goes according to plan, the tragic error will be repeated in Springfield, IL, and in Philadelphia. Aware that a Colorado family recently stole this idea in their own bid for immorbidity and immortality, The Kinsey Sicks have modified their original plan. Instead of hiding their persons inside the balloon, the dragapella divas will hide balloons inside their persons. “Trust me,” noted Trixie, “it’s not a big deal.”

Nov 3: Philadelphia The Kinsey Sicks bring “Each Hit & I” to Arcadia University. Showtime is 8 pm at Stiteler Auditorium.
