Kiss-In at Cornell

I love Cornell. I worked there for 5 years and I was in awe over the students and the university. So when I saw this article about the Kiss-In, I wasn't surprised.

Their LGBT community is very open and proud. The initiatives are always on point and university was very supportive. The student group, DASH (Direct Action to Stop Heterosexism) sponsored the 5 minute event on Friday.

It took place at Ho Plaza, which is in the middle of the campus. And it was a kick off to the big V-day.

Stick to the Original

Friday the 13th was better the FIRST time

Interesting Quote: Jamaican South West St Ann MP Ernest Smith

"I am very concerned at the extent to which homosexual activities seem to have overtaken this country…

I am very concerned that homosexuals in Jamaica have become so brazen, they've formed themselves into organisations and are abusive, violent and something that the Ministry of National Security must look into is why is it that so many homosexuals are licensed firearm holders…

There was a report recently which has never been challenged that our security forces, particularly the Jamaican Constabulary Force, have been overrun by homosexuals … there was a front page report in one of our daily newspapers, which has never been challenged."

Boycott Time!

Californians Against Hate are not playing around, y'all. The launched a boycott attack on Mrs. Katharine Garff, wife of Ken Garff Automotive Group Chairman of the Board and CEO Robert Garff for donating $100k to the Yes of Prop 8 campaign.To give y'all some insight about the Garffs, they own many car dealerships in Utah, California, Texas and Iowa.

According to the site, she has given smaller amounst to similar causes, but this glorious amount, placed her on top of the largest contributors to Prop 8.

Robert Garff started trouble with this statement: "We do believe in the proposition of marriage as being between a man and a female,'' he said. “But we reserve the rights of others to believe and act as they wish. … We want our friends who are gay to know that we respect them.''

Well if that's respect, giving $100k to stop gay marriage, I would love to see his idea of disrespect or honor.

Wanda's Going to the White House

Wanda Sykes has been chosen to be the entertainer at the annual White House Correspondents' Association annual dinner in Washington in May.

This dinner will be kind of a 'hair down' event, mixing Washington elite, White House press corps and Hollywood celebs.

Wanda is excited about this and can't wait to perform:

"The first thing I did when they asked me to do this gig — I made sure my taxes were paid."

Good thinking, girl.

Friday The 13th Movie Remix was a Day Late and a Plot Short

So I saw Friday the 13th tonight at The Grove. I wasn't banking on much with this movie and kept my expectations low...and I'm glad I did.

This movie...well, first this is not a remake. This is another story in between the original 4 and 5 chapters. And speaking of the original, it was a whole lot better than this. I will keep this vague for some of y'all who will see this movie (Christopher) later today.

The story was told in a frat boy's style. Sex, Weed, Breast, Stupid jokes, and Sex. I felt dumb after watching this. I can't fully explain it, but I wasn't feeling the flick. In the beginning, they mangled the original ending, then they remixed Jason's steelo, which made him the butt of jokes and not a deadly being.

I wanted these characters to die and the way they died was...funny. There was no fear or terror here, just campy camp slasher tales.

Also, Michael Bay was all over this film. The silly one-liners, the ridiculous monologues, and aerial shots were clearly present. However, the over-campy feel just killed it for me. I wasn't scared or thrilled. I felt like I was watching Chopping Mall.

Perhaps the best thing in this film was Jared Padalecki.

He can act and he's very easy on the eyes...so cute....Okay, but if you do anything, see the original parts 1-4 and call it a day. This flick could be Friday the 13th part 4 and a half...I would be fine with that. This movie...it's not bad bad, but it ain't good either.

Babies Having Babies

Y'all this is some crazy stuff. This young 13 year old boy is a FATHER. Do you hear me? A FATHER!

Alfie Patten and his 15 year old girlfriend, Chantelle Steadman gave birth to 7lb 3oz Maisie Roxanne.

The Sun reports:

Alfie, who is just 4ft tall, added: “When my mum found out, I thought I was going to get in trouble. We wanted to have the baby but were worried how people would react.

“I didn’t know what it would be like to be a dad. I will be good, though, and care for it.”

Alfie’s dad Dennis told how the lad does not really understand the enormity of his situation — but seemed desperate to be a devoted and responsible father.

Lord...this is some Glimore Girls drama! What really going on? When Alfie is 30, his daughter will be 17! Wow, I'm shocked to see this baby-faced kid as a dad.

I guess, SKINS will be canceled now.

This is how I earned my Gay Card

I get giddy every time I watch these clips

I have a Crush

So, I was watching the news and I noticed the new NAACP president, Benjamin Jealous.

This man is amazing and...kind of sexy. I know he is married, but he's truly a hottie. Lia is a very lucky woman.

And Benjamin is a very sexy man.

American Family Association: We Are Coming For All of You

I have hoped that someone besides little ole me, would attack the terrorists known as AFA. I blogged about this yesterday, wishing for something knock them out of the water.

Well, my prayers are answered.

The HRC unleashed their fury on the American Family Association's hatefulmerical, "Speechless: Silencing Christians". WOOD-TV said they will air the program on Saturday, but now the station has changed their minds. They are not airing the program!

WOOD-TV General Manager Diane Kniowski sent this announcement:

"We made a gesture of the 2-3 p.m. Saturday time period. It's been 24 hours and we had no response," Kniowski said. "Our station is being bombarded with calls and messages, and we find ourselves in the middle of someone else's fight. Ours was a fair offer and we are removing ourselves from this matter."

The HRC was on it! They encouraged their members to almost attack the station with emails and phone calls. I guess it worked.

The HRC prez, Joe Solmonese said, "I am so proud of our members who answered the lies and distortions of the AFA and stopped this campaign of hate and deception. Our community stood up and would not let those lies stand."

Good job, y'all. But get ready, I'm sure the AFA are coming back with something bigger.
