Morning Meme: A New "Glee" Love Triangle, A DADT Vote, and Eddie McClintock Goes To Paris While "W13" Goes to Egypt

Plus catch up on Caprica, True Lies is coming to the small screen, and the HRC brings celebrities to New York equality.

Is Artie destined to be unhappy on Glee? Because now “other Asian” Harry Shum, Jr. is saying the he and Tina are getting together on the show. Is this the new love triangle? The super dancer vs. the guy in the wheelchair? It’s an interesting story to tell.

“In the history of me teaching as a pro, I've never heard a woman ask, 'Please, grab my boobs, it's safer,’” says Louis Van Amstel on The Bachelor Pad last night. Please, someone disinfect Louis before he goes home to that cute boyfriend of his.

Sourdough bread, white truffle cheese, 100-year-old balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil, cheese, quail’s egg, heirloom black tomato, epicure apple, and dried figs. $178. The realization that you just paid nearly $200 for a cheese sandwich, mortifying.

Fox is reporting that a teenager in the UK sent President Obama a drunken, vulgar email and has been banned from the U.S. for life. The Secret Service doesn’t comment on individual cases, but I need to learn to swear like this kid.

The first screening of 127 Hours, in which James Franco cuts off his own arm when he becomes trapped by a boulder, produced three faintings and a seizure. Art is supposed to evoke a response, I guess.

Out ex-police chief Brian Paddick is launching a judicial review in the UK over the police handling of the alleged phone hacks on the royal family.

Sen. Harry Reid is reportedly scheduling a vote on Don’t Ask Don’t Tell repeal next week. It would certainly simplify things for the White House if it was repealed legislatively as well as being ruled unconstitutional, but I’m expecting Senator McCain to try and filibuster it. It would make my year if Sen. Reid sacked up and forced him to stand and read the phone book for the filibuster instead of just filing a notice that he would read it.

The new CG Star Wars cartoon comedy is either the funniest things since Lucille Ball, or maybe it’s a cross between Jon Stewart on steroids mixed with Dave Chapelle. Seth Green was having trouble describing it. And George Lucas didn’t seem to want Yoda mentioned in the interview. It was all very “these are not the producers you seek.”

James Cameron wants to bring True Lies to the small screen. You have to wonder if all these retro ideas coming out of Hollywood are because they decided to clean out the attics on their spare mansions. Also, who is going to play Jamie Lee Curtis’ part, because it can’t be her. I can’t even look at her without the Activia jingle getting stuck in my brain.

The end of a relationship always comes with a little clutter, but I do believe that same-sex relationships are less likely to leave unnecessary things behind. Now there’s a blog for guys who broke up with girls, Things I purchased for girls that are now of no use to me.

Save The Words asks you to pledge to use a forgotten word in conversation or print at least once a day in order to keep it from falling into neglect and disuse. I pledge to help keep the comments of AfterElton.com from becoming too cynicocratical.

Followup from yesterday's Briefs about the homophobic campaign manager in the Indiana congressional race. Dr. Scott is  "taking steps to remedy that."

Note to folks at nonprofits giving talks at a school: Don’t keep pictures of naked guys having sex on the same flash drive as you keep your Powerpoint presentation. Some computers have autoplay.

I have a thing for the music of Jamie Cullum. It’s just fun, energetic pop/jazz. So it’s great news that the little guy found a stepladder and got his supermodel wife Sophie Dahl pregnant. Maybe the little tyke will be able to get things off the top shelf for his talented father this time next year.
