Wacky Web of the Week: "What if the entire physical universe and all the philosophical planes of existence are just a miniscule speck in one man's crotch ... "
And whose crotch would that be? David Bowie!!
Jason Schupp writes: "There's music, photos, a forum for discussion, and more. It is THE complete website regarding David Bowie's Area.
"Because seeing Bowie in the movie Labyrinth gave me my first conscious clue that I liked boys."
Go to www.areaology.com/area.html for all you ever needed to know about David Bowie D.T. ... down there!!

My friend Martin was over from England for the Hellfire Inferno during the "Attack on America." Like everybody else, X-TREME S&M queers were deeply affected by the devastating news. They immediately put out a call for rabbis, priests and therapists at the event to help with crisis counseling.
I don't know about you, but a Sado-Masochistic rabbi seems a little odd to me; pierced yalmuka and leather tallis. I guess it takes all sorts to make a community.

My intention was to go to the Chicago Eagle at midnight and meet the very pretty Daniel Vandenbark ( Mr. Pistons Leather 2001 ) , and also to spend the first few minutes of my 50th birthday in Chicago's most important bar. And I did, though I took a rather circuitous route to get there.
I met Martin and his lover Richard in Bobby Love's earlier in the evening, where Lisa Eaton did my favorite impersonation for me i.e. Liz Taylor in Butterfield 8. Crystal...a permanent resident at Charlie's...dropped in for a chat and a photograph.
Is there a competition going on in Bobby Love's to see who can get the biggest hair? It seems these days that Bobby Love's doesn't have drag shows, but Bobby Love's IS a drag show.
... And, while we're on the subject, I've seen a lot of drag queens in my time, but Roberta Lovella wins the FABULOUS TIARA AWARD for being the scariest.
After Bobby Love's we headed north toward the Eagle, but somebody got hungry and we stopped at the Queen's Kitchen; where I bumped into the beautiful Monique. What a nice person.
We eventually got to the Eagle at midnight for Mr. Pistons Leather 2001, and what a cutie he is. He gave me my first 50th birthday card...and thanks for doing that Richard, that was a nice thought.

Book of the Week: Family Jewels: A Guide to Male Genital Play and Torment by Hardy Haberman ( Greenery Press paperback $12.95 )
There are sexual paths that I have never ventured down; one of them is S&M. A few years back a friend of mine lost her 16-year-old son to a "freak S&M accident." Being a free-thinking liberated child of the '60s, my friend knew that her son was experimenting with his sexuality and gave him the privacy to do so. She made a sad mistake.
One day she came home to find him dead with a rope around his neck; and it wasn't suicide. Since then I've made it my business to support the S&M community, especially with regard to educating their members in safe-sex practices.
And so, if you desire the exotic, then learn to do it right. If genital torture...electrical cock-rings, mouse and rat trap action, steel-ball harnesses...turns you on, then go buy Family Jewels...a book that tells you everything you need to know about male genitals and their boundless opportunities for painful pleasures. Contains advice on ... "Removing A Stuck Cock Ring" ... and other annoying little problems.
ME: I'll settle for a good old-fashioned B.J. any day ...

How do you fill up a bar on a Tuesday night at 10 p.m.? Simple .. karaoke! Jackhammer was packed, pulling in an insane crowd that included Hotspots Marty...soon-to-be Dame Tee...singing "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds," and Gary ( AKA Joan of Clark ) dismantling John Lennon's Imagine.
Monique did a nice job with Jolene.

I dropped into the Ebenezer Lutheran Church on Foster last week for one of the opening classes of Chi-Town Squares; those crazy, fun-loving GLBT square dancers.
How do they remember all those dance moves? I get dizzy just looking at them.
