after learning about the death of oscar mayer a week ago, a random wienermoblie could not deal with the news, veered off course and rammed it's long shaft into the nearest vessel. after entering abruptly, the wienermobile began to thrust in and out repeatedly in a vain attempt to dislodge. eventually the wienermobile expelled all it's fuel and pulled out slowly. two young gay boys in orange flight-suits witnessed the entire spectacle, and it actually brought them to their knees. One southern Wisconsin homeowner is probably not in love with the Oscar Mayer wiener. The famed hot dog's Wienermobile crashed Friday into the deck and garage of a home in Mount Pleasant, about 35 miles south of Milwaukee.
Police said the driver was trying to turn the Wienermobile around in the driveway and thought she was moving in reverse. But she instead went forward and hit the home. It sat in the driveway as if it were stuck in the garage Friday afternoon.
Both the home and vehicle suffered moderate damage, which Oscar Mayer spokeswoman Sydney Lindner says insurance will cover.
LONDON — The world's oldest man, 113-year-old World War I veteran Henry Allingham, died Saturday after spending his final years reminding Britain about the 9 million soldiers killed during the conflict. Henry Allingham: World's Oldest Man Dies At 113
Allingham was the last surviving original member of the Royal Air Force, which was formed in 1918. He made it a personal crusade to talk about a conflict that wiped out much of a generation. Though nearly blind, he would take the outstretched hands of visitors in both of his, gaze into the eyes of children, veterans and journalists and deliver a message he wanted them all to remember. "I want everyone to know," he told The Associated Press during an interview in November. "They died for us."
Allingham's funeral will take place in Brighton. He is survived by five grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren, 14 great-great grandchildren and one great-great-great grandchild. READ MORE-
during his naacp speech yesterday, obama made reference to cape coast castle, ghana. the origins of the dark side of american history start here. Cape Coast Castle is a fortification in Ghana. The first timber construction on the site was erected in 1653 for the Swedish Africa Company and named Carolusborg after King Charles X of Sweden. It was later rebuilt in stone. In April 1663 the whole Swedish Gold Coast was seized by the Danes, and integrated in the Danish Gold Coast. In 1664 the Castle was conquered by the British and was extensively rebuilt by the Committee of Merchants (whose Governors administered the entire British colony) in the late 18th century. In 1844, it became the seat of the colonial Government of the British Gold Coast. The Castle was built for the trade in timber and gold, later it was used in the trans-Atlantic slave trade. The Castle and Dungeon, was first restored in the 1920s by the British Public Works Department. In 1957, when Ghana became independent, it passed under the care of the Ghana Museums and Monuments Board.

FETISH BOOK CLUB we are so enjoying reading MERV GRIFFIN: a life in the closet. every page is a hoot. acording to author DAWRIN PORTER, merv made it with everyone. the catty humor is great in that old-school-homo sorta way. an example~ according to dawrin porter, after meeting with singer, joan edwards she immediately told a young merv, "you sing romantic ballads better than sinatra, although i'm sure you don't fuck as well. I'm speaking from personal experience. but that blubber has got to go. there aren't too many moby dick scripts being written for whales these days." then after merv looses 60 lbs, his long time friend, johnny riley says this, "i was so impressed with merv's new look that i tossed in a mercy fuck that night, just for old times sake. after all, he'd lusted after me ever since grade school, and i felt he deserved some kind of reward."
and that's only one page of the book! read the book and come chat about it @ THE FETISH BOOK CLUB, friday july 17th- 7:30pm- $15 @ antebellum
Voodoo became a fatal obsession. ON A SEARCH FOR SPIRITUAL CLEANSING, SHE DIED IN A SOUTH JERSEY TOWNHOUSE LUCILLE HAMILTON paid $621 to have her "spiritual grime" removed by a voodoo high priest in an ordinary townhouse on a winding street in Camden County, a friend said.
Hamilton, 21, a male living as a woman, flew in on Friday from her home in Little Rock, Ark., to the house on Loch Lomond Drive in Gloucester Township, friends said, to take part in a three-day spiritual cleansing referred to on the priest's Web site as "Lave Tet." By Saturday night Hamilton was dead, and authorities are awaiting results of an autopsy and toxicology tests to determine exactly what happened. READ MORE-
ok, i saw bruno.... i guess i had to for anthropological reasons, or it was my day off... i was hot & tired etc.. here's what i thought- i was disappointed that michael jackson's fans could not get to his star on the hollywood walk of fame, because bruno had his red carpet draped over it, near he chinese theatre. bad omen to have premiere the day of the king of pop's death.
the film for the most part just isn't that funny. it's dullard, frat boy humor, like a slightly, (just slightly) more enlighten jackass. the days of the liberace/richard simmons gay clowns are over. richard simmons is funnier when he's making fun of himself. check him out on WHO'S LINE IS IT ANYWAY?- HILARIOUS.
bruno is more successful when it's subtle. during the hunting scene when bruno comments to three snaggletoothed NRA devotees, "we're so much like the sex in the city girls!" then silence... long silence.. very uncomfortable silence. that's funny! cut. that all you need.. instead sacha baron cohen stretches it out and adds a totally pointless nude scene of himself trying to enter one of the hunter's tents. so what? the reaction of the guy getting pissed off and swatting the camera is a surprise? grow up.
the black baby scene is funny, as a one time shock value.. but don't draw it out. same with the wrestling scene. one clip i really did like was during the wrestling match when the entire audience is freaking out and wanting to lynch the gay wrestlers who are lip-locking & 69ing, the camera catches a random heshen in the audience is smiling with glee.. this is real... this is funny, however each scene goes on for way too long, then the outcome of homophobia is supposed to surprise us? or enlighten middle-america?
i would wager that sacha baron cohen had no gay people on his crew. otherwise the would have told him day one, " this humor is soooooo 2008." here's what barbara wawa and the girls on the view said about the film-
Israeli Cell Phone Company in Hot Water Over Ad Featuring Wall
It only lasts a minute but has sparked days of argument and controversy. what a surprise... Cellcom, one of Israel's leading mobile phone networks has produced a TV commercial starring Israel's controversial security barrier with the Palestinian West Bank.
The ad shows an Israeli army jeep patrolling a concrete section of the barrier. Their jeep is hit by a soccer ball kicked by unseen Palestinians from the other side. The soldiers get out and kick it back -- yes, you guessed it, the ball comes back over again and an impromptu games begins. The commercial voice over ends by saying "we all just want to have fun." besides the continuously sensitive political positions, the commercial has allot of homoerotic appeal. there has been no comment about this because the opposing sides are too incensed by the larger depiction of israelis and Palestinians having fun, but check out the hot Israels wearing wife-beaters and straddling one another after a score.. yah!

according to the university of sussex, cats 'exploit' humans by purring. cat owners may have suspected as much, but it seems our feline friends have found a way to manipulate humans. Researchers at the University of Sussex have discovered that cats use a "soliciting purr" to overpower their owners and garner attention and food. i feel so used by my cats pyewackett and sympathy, but i do eventually succumb to everything they want.
Unlike regular purring, this sound incorporates a "cry", with a similar frequency to a human baby's. "He would wake me up in the morning with this insistent purr that was really rather annoying," READ MORE-
it seems like everyone wants a piece of the action. blacks & latinos have had their share of riots, anti-war demonstrators, gays and now ULTRA-ORTODOX JEWS have taken to the streets to demand the closing of a parking lot.
as join mitchell once sang, "they paved paradise, and put up a parking lot."
after two guys were nearly arrested for kissing in front of a mormon church, today many kissers protest near Temple Square. A "kiss-in" drew about 60 people sporting pink paper hearts to the sidewalk just off of LDS Church property near Main Street and South Temple in salt lake city, sunday to protest actions taken by church security late last week. Former Salt Lake City Councilwoman Deeda Seed launched the idea from her Facebook page after two gay men, Derek Jones and Matthew Aune, were forced to leave the church-owned pedestrian walkway between North Temple and South Temple Thursday night for "inappropriate" behavior. That behavior, reportedly, was holding hands and a kiss on the cheek and led to the men being handcuffed, led off the plaza and cited by Salt Lake police READ MORE-
