  Oh dear. My queer quotient is already pretty low. Was it a modern
rendition of GWTW where Rhett was a lesbian?

  All you need to do is go visit his video store in South Laguna, and
ask for the "private screening room". Or come to the Shrimp on Sundays
where Mark does his pants'ed dance. That way you can shop before you
drop.

  They may look at you oddly when they try to figure out where
you were trying to fit it.

  Really? Was that a public or private Greek place? Would you be
willing to demonstrate?

  Well, beer does have it's place. Margaritas? Tequilia gives me
dreadful hangovers. Going to La Fabula this weekend?

  Well at first I though grandmama was just giving one of her
children a peck on the forehead for goodnight, but the peck
missed and landed right down the poor child's throat. It was
awful, it jammed and it took what seemed hours to get back
apart.
  I'm sure grandmama is doing penance as we speak for any
wicked thoughts that may have come to mind.

  That's Homophobic Hinterlands to you dear. I get to go back
up in a couple of weeks though (yeah!). Maybe this time California
will drop into the ocean, and I won't be able to come home.
