ST. VINCENT'S HOSPITAL SHUTTING DOWN

noreply@blogger.com (Lady Bunny) — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 13:19:00 +0000

Just snapped this sad pic of St. Vincent's hospital closing and the emergengy room sign being taken down. I don't fancy myself a photographer but it was lucky for the pic (not for him) that a guy in a cast was walking by at that very moment as if he didn't know where to go for treatment now. Signs indicated that the nearest treatment center is going to be waaaay downtown.

THE DELIVERY!

PATHETIC NEW AD CAMPAIGN

noreply@blogger.com (Lady Bunny) — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 11:06:00 +0000

I am not as cyber-oriented as many people so I ask you: Is this ad campaign for Svedka vodka not one of the worst in history? I enjoy futuristic imagery but who the f#ck looks at this ad which asks "RU bot or not?" and thinks Oh, I'm bot and then buys this vodka? Bot presumably being a cuddly abbreviation of robot. I find it hard to believe that this idea tested favorably with market researchers.

SPILL, BABY, SPILL!

noreply@blogger.com (Lady Bunny) — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 10:55:00 +0000

The oil spill hit land today and could be worse than the Exxon-Valdez spill. Sarah Palin and Michael Steele have had nothing to say about this, even though they claim that off-shore drilling is environmentally safe. And Obama should be cursed for recently throwing conservative crazies like them a bone to develop more o...ff-shore drilling. Obama is now forced to reconsider something which should have been obvious in the first place. Note to Obama: Throwing someone a bone is hardly going to satisfy a crew who wants your blood.

'Drill, Baby, Drill' Champions Silent On Gulf Oil Spill

More than a week has passed since the Deepwater Horizon rig exploded 50 miles off the Louisiana coast, killing 11 workers, injuring over a dozen more, and causing a massive oil spill that may eclipse the Exxon Valdez.

Yet the two most prominent political champions of offshore drilling -- Sarah Palin and Michael Steele -- appear not to have uttered a word about the incident.

MICHAEL ALIG'S INTERVIEW INTERVIEW

noreply@blogger.com (Lady Bunny) — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 01:01:00 +0000

It is immediately evident how intelligent and charming Alig can be. Some former friends have called Alig a sociopath; others—like Cassidy—a very good human being who made a terrible mistake while under the hold of drugs. Alig does seem genuinely contrite. He clearly knows that it will be his good behavior—not the bad behavior that made him famous—that will bring him back into the world. He tells me after the interview, “I don’t want it to sound like I’m sensationalizing or glamorizing the past, because that makes me sound like I don’t care about what I did. And I do care.” One day, Alig will be back on the streets of downtown Manhattan. He may be as surprised by what he finds there as those who once knew him as the master of the Club Kid universe may be surprised by what they find in him.

BANKING SYSTEM IS "DESIGNED TO FAIL"

noreply@blogger.com (Lady Bunny) — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 20:52:00 +0000

Republicans want to keep a banking system which is "designed to fail" unless you're one of the few mega-rich who is profiting from their scam. Wake up, people! Republican politicians represent big business only but manage to trick people into supporting highway robbery by attaching hot button issues like abortion and gay marriage to their platform. Even if you're anti-abortion and anti-gay marriage, DO YOU WANT TO BE RIPPED OFF AND GO BROKE SO THAT A FEW VERY RICH PEOPLE CAN GET RICHER?

R.I.P. MARC BERKLEY

noreply@blogger.com (Lady Bunny) — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 16:45:00 +0000

N.Y. Nightlife Impresario Marc Berkley Dead at 56 by Steve Weinstein

Marc Berkley in a familiar position - surrounded by hot men.

There was a time when, if you were a gay man and you went out to a nightclub to dance, you were probably at a Marc Berkley event. A shy, insecure guy from Queens had so successfully reinvented himself that, for a bright, shining, moment (closer to the better part of a decade), he reigned as the king of the gay dance parties - as the New York media dubbed him.

When Berkley arrived on the scene, the city had already emerged successfully from the 1970s bankruptcy into the ’80s "Masters of the Universe" glitz of clubs like Area, the Palladium and even a renovated Studio 54. Above all was the Saint, the gay-only megaclub that had the best sound and light systems, a specially hydraulic dance floor and just about everything else that made the it finest dance space in the world.

Berkley became friends with Bruce Mailman and learned the basics of Nightclub 101 at the foot of the master impresario. Although his stint at the Saint was brief, he was able to take those lessons and apply them to other clubs. In the process, he would bring his own ideas, which flew off in every direction but often-enough landed to make a splash with clubgoers and the media.

Before the Saint, however, he had made his first contact with a man who would have a deep influence on Berkley’s career, Peter Gatien. The mysterious, one-eyed Canadian club owner hired Berkley to work as a publicist.

It was a heady rise for a kid self-described as fat, unattractive and deeply insecure. Berkley was born in the Bronx but spent most of his youth in Queens, N.Y.. He attended Central Michigan University, where he majored in social work. According to a 2001 profile in New York Magazine, he had planned on teaching emotionally disturbed children.

"Now," he said, in typically wisecracking Marc Berkley style, "I just throw them parties." In fact, after the Saint closed in 1988, he worked briefly as a child welfare investigator for the City of New York.

COTS!?!

noreply@blogger.com (Lady Bunny) — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 11:42:00 +0000

I'm a fairly liberal democrat. I understand that some people are republican. I can't really understand why they are republican, but I'm sure they also question my beliefs. Don't get me wrong. I understand that we are all different and different upbringings and situations lead to different conclusions about politics. So while I would diasagree with republicans on most issues, there's nothing wrong with a healthy debate. There are people who cherish republican/conservative values. HOWEVER, the republican legislators are bogus and here is proof about how they don't even hold their own conservative values dear.

For days, republicans have sworn that they would filibuster THE DISCUSSION of Wall Street reform. Wall Street's crooked practices have had a huge part in our recession. How could any politician not want to solve the issue which created tons of foreclosures which forced people out of their homes? Far from solving the issue, republican politicians are so embedded with Wall Street special interests that they don't want to even discuss this? C'mon! It's absurd, but top republican legislators swore up and down that it was against their principles to discuss consumer protection from widespread shady investments. If they don't represent consumers, then they must represent banking interests which get rich by ripping us off.

But here's what's so crazy. Watch this clip. The republicans' commitment to filibuster based on their core principles vanished when faced with the threat of a televised overnight vote. The fact that it would be televised would show Americans. still smarting form being shafted by banks and Wall Street speculation, that republicans didn't even want to discuss this on camera and prove to viewers that they side with the very interests who have ripped us all off! If you are a republican, please explain to me how this can be ethical. To me it seems like the whole gang of repubs got caught out.

RACHEL MADDOW IT'S THE CLIP CALLED FACING THREAT OF LATE NIGHT, REPUBLICANS CAVE.

and
asked him the following questions:
L: Have you any grounds?
P: Yes, an acre and half and nice little home.
L: No, I mean what is the foundation of this case?
P: It made of concrete.
L: I don't think you understand. Does either of you have a real grudge?
P: No, we have carport, and not need one.
L: I mean.What are your relations like?
P: All my relations still in Poland.
L: Is there any infidelity in your marriage?
P: We have hi-fidelity stereo and good DVD player.
L: Does your wife beat you up?
P: No, I always up before her.
L: Is your wife a nagger?
P: No, she white.
L: Why do you want this divorce?
P: She going to kill me.
L: What makes you think that?

PEOPLE! I can't believe the number of postings about how Raven was "robbed" when she didn't win RuPaul's Drag Race. Are you stupid? Do you actually believe that this is a true competition with realistic challenges?

On previous episodes, the queens have faced challenges where they sew, rap, appear in chicken costumes, put older, bearded men in drag etc.--none of which any successful queen needs to do. Entertaining yes, but hardly rooted in what a queen has to accomplish in order to make it. Queens all over the country ask me "How did that fat ugly gurl get on the show when they turned me down?" Are you not aware that they cast these shows based not on who the prettiest or most popular queens in the nation are but on the same basis that they cast all reality shows on: we need a bitch, someone who can't speak English, someone fat, someone retro, etc. in order to create conflicts and make dynamic TV on a show whose only plot is elimination. Don't snap when the formula you obviously love doesn't go your way, you big crybabies.

Was New York the prettiest girl to compete for the love of Flava Flav on Flavor Of Love? Did she even win? No, but she got her own show because she was a train wreck who made for compelling TV. They also brought her back on the second season to aggravate that group of girls, which has nothing to do with rules or fairness. That kind of mess is what reality shows are often looking for.

This year everyone wanted Raven to win. Last year everyone wanted Nina Flowers to win. And after she lost, Nina taped some promo for the next season's show saying something to the effect of "This season the queen who deserves to win will win." Don't you realize that the show is designed to push your buttons and it's working beautifully? Just because it's called reality TV doesn't mean that it's real. Enjoy the show as the hit cultural phenomenon it is but don't paint it as a serious competition showcasing the best drag talent in the land. It never tried to be that.

If you really want to get into it, why don't you claim that Tyra should be disqualified for having a silicone-pumped upper lip, since contestants aren't supposed to have had cosmetic procedures? I don't see why these girls pump the first lip only since the bottom lip is normally fuller than the top. I always gagged looking at Melanie Griffith's weird top-heavy lip. But what do I know? Melanie's misshapen mouth is on Antonio Bandera's d(ck and mine ain't. And now Tyra can take that prize money and use it to inflate her bottom lip. Maybe she can pump her son's lips too! Werk!

SIMON DOONAN ON IAN DURY

noreply@blogger.com (Lady Bunny) — Tue, 27 Apr 2010 14:54:00 +0000

FROM THE DAILY BEAST:

Decades before Lady Gaga announced her desire to “take a ride on your disco stick,” there was Ian Dury, hilarious, horrible, wicked, and irate, screaming, “hit me with your rhythm stick. Hit me! Hit me! Hit me!” at the top of his lungs.

Hit Ian Dury? That would not be very nice. You don’t hit England’s most beloved low-life rock poet. You don’t hit the bloke who popularized the phrase, “Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll.” And you certainly don’t hit a cripple.
