To Make a Long Story Short ... Sedaris takes a mourning flight, Schrader talks The Walker, and more!
- Not only was recently-AfterEltoned Ugly Betty newbie David Blue robbed of any screentime as Cliff in the latest episode, but he was also robbed of ... well, he was robbed! He's not been hurt, thank heaven, and you can read his firsthand account (secondhand) of the incident.
- In his new book, The Naked Man: A Study of the Male Body, forward-thinking academic Desmond Morris moves past his previous "lack of male influence" theory and postulates that gay men become gay because they never "break" from other boys in childhood, or had disappointing sexual encounters with women at a young age. Morris's next book apparently hinges on a groundbreaking medical use he has found for leeches.
- Completing a self-skewering television trifecta (following his previous turns on Little Britain and the upcoming Extras Christmas finale), George Michael plays himself on an upcoming Catherine Tate Christmas special.
- Paul Schrader talks to gay pub HX about his upcoming gay escort movie The Walker and why star Woody Harrelson won't do interviews about it.

Desmond Morris's hypothesis
had me fluctuating between laughter and tears. Talking about a large pile of intellectual doggy-doo. How many gay men did he interview to come up with his theories? So we remain juvenile, stuck in a time warp of only wanting to play with boys? How about all those gay guys that only had female friends when they were young, or all those straight guys who spend most of their time with straight guys drinking beer and watching sports? Maybe Mr. Morris should go to an NFL game on Sunday afternoon to get a glimpse of males that never escaped being juvenile!
We become gay because our first experiences with women are disappointing? Of course they are disappointing, how can you get excited about a woman's physical attributes if you are thinking about guys?
Finally why are scientists so obssessed with the causes of homosexuality? I can only hope it is because they want to increase the number of gays and lesbians in the world. After all one of the biggest problems facing the human race is not a lack of people, but too many people!
