I keep getting accused of trying to get into people’s genes, so I thought I would open the kimono, so to speak, and show you what’s in mine. Genes people, not jeans. Have some decency won’t you? My employer recently started a new discount program for employees to get confidential genetic testing. I did a little research and thought, why not give this a try and see what I can discover? The program offers us the choice between two vendors, and I chose 23andMe – they offer an additional “ancestry” option that gives details on family ...

The Boston gay flag football team behind a video that managed to get the attention of Ellen Degeneres earlier this year put their effort into creating a video for a Ke$ha YouTube video contest. Except, after finishing the video, they realized they had used the wrong song. Still, it's as party-oriented as you'd expect a Ke$ha video to be. More "poison for the minds of our kids" no doubt. Watch, AFTER THE JUMP... ...

And the American media came right out and called the organized campaign exactly what it is: propaganda? Gee, ninety years ago: Can you put some of that direct, far more respectable frankness in a time machine and send it our way? We'll send a bottle of Cuervo back your way as a way of saying thanks. ...

I may not understand this Ke$ha person at all, but if there's one thing I do understand it's boys dancing in their underpants. A bunch of totally str8-acting (uh...) fratboys musclejocks recently got it in their heads to strip down to their 2Xists and make a music video for Ke$ha's TAKE IF OFF. Yes please! And don't make fun of them, otherwise they might not want to do it again... ...
