Great. Now the guys can look as sick and repulsive as the corpse-like girls. That's progress.

This was interesting to me. Not that I like it. (Though thinking back, at 14 I was 147 lb and 5'9". Stayed so pretty much forever due to smoking.)
"According to a study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Americans are taller and much heavier today than 40 years ago. The report, released in 2002, showed that the average height of adult American men has increased to 5-9 ½ in 2002 from just over 5-8 in 1960. The average weight of the same adult man had risen dramatically, to 191 pounds from 166.3. Fat farm. Chuckle. Added: and it seems all too true - going by the Slide Show, plus taking a notional average of what's to be seen in the Men's Collections, linked off
to from the slide show end page. 'Pencil thighs'. 'Chicken-chested'. Scrawns, oh for some happy medium, well short of totally gym-built that
is. It's flesh not bone and not bladders of muscle either.

Letter to the editor in today's Kansas City Star:
"Kudos to the letterwriter who had praise for peanut butter and mayonnaise sandwiches. . . The only thing better than PB and mayo is peanut butter, mayonnaise and avocado." It wasn't signed Brian Kinney though - LOL! |

Peanut butter, mayonaise and bananas is what Brian should have eaten! |

There was also the sandwich Justin made when Cynthia was in the loft. He was slicing a banana, wasn't he? Maybe he converted Brian from avocados.
Nutritious but fattening, but neither of them has to worry about that. However, I clearly remember what is truly yummy in Brian's sandwich scene.

wow, this is just sad.........almost a month and nobody's posted so much as a howdy or pulled up to the bar for a Hot Buttered Brian!!!
I know the lad seems to have gone missing, but maybe if we all came and gathered round, and put our heads and our wine glasses together, Mr Harold might just be inclined to do the same........or at the very least, we'd all get a jolly good time out of it!!! What do you say, Refugees, wanna cum??????????? Barkeep, barkeep........... |

"I know the lad seems to have gone missing" Hope he's not back assembling motorcycles. That would be a real shame!

Indeed! I hope he doesn't stay behind the cameras either - like producing more movies. I want to see him again! |

One wonders why he hasn't been picked up for another series or a mainline film. Either he simply is not as wonderful as we think he is, or (more likely)
he isn't interested. He's a little different, of course, and he seems to prefer puttering around the edges of limelight life. Maybe it's true
that he doesn't give a rat's ass for the gifts of fame and fortune and honestly prefers indies and promoting this and that.
I don't like to think that 5 years playing a gay man on QAF hurt his chances of future success in front of a camera...but maybe it did. None of the other stars of QAF have gone on to any particularly great career heights. Peter's probably done the best. I can't find a menu, but I guess I'll have a Hot Buttered Brian. |

Hot Buttered Brian coming right up. As he always does! I've been hoping Gale's lack of work (or at least the lack of high-profile work) was related to
the writers' strike, which shut down all the pilot production for so long. Maybe better things are now in the works. I hope. Or as you say, maybe he
doesn't care. I don't know if QAF hurt his chances but I wonder if Vanished did. It was hardly his fault the writing was so piss-poor and the show
tanked (as evidenced by it sinking even lower when his character was replaced), but there did seem to be some ominous signs that he was being made a scapegoat.
He went to the NY stage afterwards - my feeling that he should do that again has nothing to do with the fact that I live just outside of NY! Randy's been
working steadily but mostly in small theater circles. I'm sure he's fine with that but it's bad news for fans who can't run over to NY or the
Berkshires.

From TV GUIDE SCOOP:
[Question: Any idea how good or bad the upcoming episodes of Grey's Anatomy are? - Alistair Ausiello: That depends. Does the sight of two extremely good-looking young men making out on your TV screen get you excited? If your answer is yes, then I guarantee you at least one of Grey's five post-strike episodes will be very good. According to my Seattle Grace mole, producers are looking for a pair of actors in their twenties to play gay soldiers in love. Interested thesps must be Caucasian, hot and be comfortable sharing a "very romantic kiss" with another dude. BTW, if you're wondering why we teased this item with a photo of Eric Dane, it's because a) the story pertains to Grey's and b) Dane is a member of that show's cast. Duh. ] Okay, anybody thinking what I'm thinking??????? Me thinks the paramedic shoulda been a soldier, no?! |

I saw the term "Top Ten" recently and it made me think of and miss this place.

Hi AnnieGirl! It's so good to hear from you. It's funny how often someone will say something that makes you flash back to QAF or this board or this
fandom, isn't it?
It's amazing to me that she recognized Gale from L&O! When we were in New York seeing Suddenly Last Summer, we were waiting outside with some other women, before the play began, to see Gale as he walked in. One of the women mentioned that she actually saw him first on Vanished and thought he was gorgeous so she goggled him and (in her words) "found the pot of gold!" We all laughed because we knew exactly what she meant! |

IT WORKED!! IT WORKED!!! The lad has resurfaced!! L'Chaim!
From TV GUIDE: Exclusive: Gale Harold Gets Desperate Sources confirm to me exclusively that former Queer as Folk cad Gale Harold has booked a potentially recurring role on Desperate Housewives. The Vanished actor - who turned up last November as a swastika-sportin' medic in a two-part Grey's Anatomy - will play a quick-witted, charming and buttoned-down suburbanite. Picture a young Jack Lemmon, only without a cross-dressing Tony Curtis dragging him down. He'll be introduced in the May 18 finale and could return next season in a recurring capacity. |

It's a party-all-day occasion at Woody's today. (Wait a minute, we always party all day in here.) Okay, well, beside(s) the great Gale news, we have
even more reason to celebrate.
Have a great day, philflam! |
