Just some links to stuff I’ve found interesting over the past few days…Readers, you say?
- Not Asking, Not Telling: Riverside judge declares “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” unconstitutional…policy not only violates the 1st Amendment rights of lesbians and gay men but has a “direct and deleterious effect’’ on the military…Los Angeles Times reports the story here…
- Crazy, Sexy, Fat: According to today’s Daily Beast, fat men last longest at having sex. YES! I’ve known it all along. What we lack in quantity of partners, we more than make up for in quality of love! Read the story and get all kinds of other sex-based factoids here at The Daily Beast…
- Live & On-Stage: October 18th marks the date of the 25th anniversary staged reading of Larry Kramer‘s The Normal Heart, starring Joe Mantello (first time acting on stage since original Angels in America!), Patrick Wilson and Victor Garber, will benefit The Actors Fund and Friends in Deed. Playbill.com has the story here.
- Friend Me, Fail U?: Harrisburg University offers extra-credit for no Facebook, and basically “blacks out” social media: You can read all about it at the Chronicle of Higher Education here…
- Children of the Manor Born: So, Jay-Z’s signing Jada and Will’s daughter to a record deal. She’s 9. Jay-Z calls her the “next Michael Jackson” or some other such ridiculousness. Check it out here at Rapradar.com (including Ryan Seacrest interview with Willow; she hates math.)
If you haven’t heard her new song, here’s a video. It’s called “Whip My Hair” and it sounds like Rihanna. Not great “Umbrella” Rihanna. But that’s just me.
