Go Home And Now For Something Completely Different

And Now For Something Completely Different

I guess Andrew Sullivan's been pretty preoccupied with Obama, but I'm still kind of shocked I'm beating him to this: Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to Bear Force 1.

(H.T. to reader J.B.F.)

I don't think they're hairy enough.  I mean, they've got the beards, but do they have enough shoulder hair to make it big?

That's just a little bit too gay for me.

I haave always considered myself pretty tolerant of other people's lifestyle choices.  These guys can do whatever they want, and if they find an audience, good for them.  Having said that....

I *am* gay, and it may be just a little bit too gay for me, too (well, almost -- I kinda dug the disco-retro, but perhaps I shouldn't admit that).  I think, though, that much of the jarring aesthetic overload may come from the fact that, um, Europeans seem to be involved; note the license plate on the convertible.  In the Bear Forests of the U.S., you're not likely to find many pastel polo shirts.

Which one of them is Andrew?  If he's the chubby one, he's really let himself go.

What about the tri-color canvas belts? Like the safety dance, VERY 80s.

Apparently they're from the Netherlands... that most sinful of lands.  Can't wait to catch them at Passpop on the 23rd of March!

And the point is...

You think this will attract more readers?

You are gay, and after Saturday night at Crisco Disco you think the whole world is gay, too?

Oh, I get it!  Nobody at CanWest is paying attention, so why not, right?

I know about" We're here, we're queer."  I mean, I'm used to it, so why the Larry Kramer?
