Come on, folks. Where are you getting your gays these days? it sounds like Byron Beck writing for the mercury. Is the Mercury so lacking in queers that you have to outsource your articles to boring-ass Just Out writers?

Uh, yeah. They fired Beck and now he's "writing" for the Mercury. That's beside the point. The fact is that there haven't been any good gay writers for a long time... if ever. it's all drag queens and jokes about how "gay" straight people are ... with a limp-wristed Zing! of course. And, Embers? Did you move to town after Patrick Swayze died?
