Your Monday Morning "Everything Bagel!"

Enjoy this tasty treat designed help to stall the inevitable soul crushingness that is known as the start of the work week. Savor it because as soon as you're done, it begins...

For some reason the all-pachyderm edition of Dieux Du Stade didn't sell very well.

• In sad but inevitable news, the rash of gay bookstore closings continues with the landmark Lambda Rising in Washington, D.C. Unlike most recent closings, however, this shut down isn't for financial reasons. The owners "decided they would rather close the stores than sell them to a new owner who might change their focus and mission."

Happy Birthday to Margaret Cho, who turned 41 over the weekend.

• Donal Og Cusack, the Irish hurler who came out in his autobiography, has won an award for "Irish Sports Book of the Year". I know the snarky among you are probably saying "well how many Irish Sports Books could there have been?", but according to the article there were quite a few that didn't even make the shortlist, so it's a high honor indeed.

• Ugly Betty continues its ratings ennui on Friday night (but at least it beat Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer on The CW). The move to Wednesday can't come soon enough.

• Say it isn't so! Bisexual singer Danyl Johnson got unexpectedly voted off of the U.K.'s X-Factor last night. He totally should have kissed the male gaffer and mimed having sex with the one of the judges.

• Office Space star Ron Livingston is suing, well, "someone" for constantly updating his Wikipedia page to claim that he's gay. He also believes the same person is creating bogus Faceplace pages for him stating the same thing. Well, that's what you get for breaking up with someone on a Post-It.

• Johnny Weir finished third in the Grand Prix Finals in Japan, in what was called an "Olympic-worthy" performance.

• CNN.com speaks with out Hollywood publicist Howard Bragman and out actors Danny Pintauro and Mitchell Anderson about coming out in Hollywood.

• Hiram Monserrate, one of the eight Democratic Senators who voted down marriage-equality in NY state, was sentenced to 250 hours of community service, 52 weeks of domestic abuse counseling and three years of probation for assaulting his girlfriend. He and his girlfriend still plan on getting married (after the restraining order against him is lifted), so I guess the sanctity of marriage will be preserved with this couple.

• NYTimes.com has an interview with certain-to-be-Oscar-nominated actor Colin Firth about his career and his performance in A Single Man.

• Above you can see Rachel Maddow delivering an impassioned monologue about the human rights disaster going on in Uganda, and the culpability of American lawmakers.

• Guardian.co.uk has an interview with George Michael that is sad and illuminating.

• The Grammys have always had a dubious track record for me, so the fact that hateful reggae "artist" Buju Banton's latest release has been nominated for Best Reggae Album doesn't surprise me.

• And here is your sports pics of the week!

Soccer God Cristiano Ronaldo received a foul and penalty for ripping off his shirt after scoring a goal. What has the world come to?

And now the work week begins! We're so so sorry...
