"Near Beer"?  Try telling that to the Berliners I partied with last
month! Heffeweisen, the cloudy, yeasty stuff, with or without the 
lemon is truly a brew of the heavens-and strong, too. 

"Near Beer", indeed. Humph. What kinda ingrates are you hanging

It's nice that your friend is a good lesbian, and
you are sensible to arrange your dates in advance.

Organization: Reed College, Portland, OR

There's this guy on American Public television - Jack Korkheimer, Star
Hustler. It's this bizarre little 2 minute TV show about the stars for
any given night. It's produced out of of Florida. Usually shows on the
PBS station right before signoff.

Jack's very twee. The intro to the show goes something like "Some
people hustle cars.. Other people hustle pool. But only one man
hustles the stars - Jack Korkheimer, Star Hustler!". At this point a
bearish (but beardless) man wearing a Members Only jacket ambles out
along this stylization of the rings of Saturn, and inevitably says
"greetings, fellow star gazers, we have an exceptionally interesting
night tonight!".

He sets off my gaydar like you wouldn't believe. It's not just the
Member's Only jacket, it's his whole schtick.

Anyway, last night he was talking about how one sticks one's fist into
the rim of the big dipper. I thought that was pretty risque.

Why does there have to be a scientific backup for feelings? I like men,
and that's reason enough for me to be queer. I don't need to go any
deeper than that to feel good about myself.

Dancing in restrictive black leather chaps and steel toe lineman's boots 
that have seen three major continents is a great way to get nice calves,
and burly men. 

Sex standing up or laying down wears out many things but the soul isn't
one of them. Sex while standing on ones head is easier if you have a

I haven't seen any mention of _Howard's End_ here - I 
saw it a while back and thought it wonderful.  
Vanessa Redgrave gives an *incredible* performance,
and the rest of the actors are top-notch.  
Visually, it's stunning.  Highly recommended.

Also recommended is kd lang's new record,
_ingenue_.  It's not really country, it's
more torchy, but even that doesn't describe
it.  I like it more and more the more times

I assume this is Richard Fung, who also made the hilarious "Chinese
Characters", a look at representations of Asians in gay male porn.

I had mentioned this before, but kept forgetting to post: there's a
new book on gay video and film called _How do I Look?_ (forgot the
publisher, sorry). The Richard Fung article is (guess what) a study
of representations of Asians in gay male porn, and contains many
tiny reproductions of scenes from porn videos.

It's probably not *exactly* what Jojo was talking about (literary
critics who have studied porn). I may have a few extra leads from
the queer studies conference that was here last weekend. I'll type
in a report soon...
