Page 1 Consider (11/12)

  • George Michael Syndrome: State Rep. Bob Allen (R-Fla.) has been convicted of offering an undercover male police officer 20 bucks to suck his "stocky black guy" cock. There's good news and bad news for Allen. The bad news is he now has to pay a $500 fine. The good news is he will be spending 60 days in jail where he may well have access to a free all-you-can-fellate bar. Ah, family values. How they warm your heart. (365Gay)

  • Mistaken Identity: A lesbian in Washington state has been awarded nearly $4.4 million in a lawsuit she filed against her former employer, Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., and a supervisor, alleging unlawful retaliation that eventually led to her dismissal. That's fantastic news -- but why on earth would Goodyear fire a lezzie in the first place? (Advocate)

  • Happy Ending: Back in 1999, a down-on-her-luck Bonnie Brown took a job as an in-house masseuse at an Internet startup called Google, which started out at $450 a week but included a pile of Google stock options that she figured might never be worth a penny. Today is she is a retired multimillionaire. (Must be how she paid for her sex reassignment surgery.) (NYT)

  • Big Guns: A Navy doctor was found guilty Friday of using a hidden camera to videotape Naval Academy midshipmen engaged in sex acts. What a disgusting pervert. Now where can I rent these? (AP)

  • ENDA 2: Electric Bogaloo: Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.) says he will introduce a Senate version of the the Employment Non-Discrimination Act in the current session. The Employment Non-Discrimination Act passed the House on Wednesday but without protections for the transgendered. (365Gay)

  • Unstoppable: It was a fitting end to Justine Henin's tremendous season. The world No. 1 rallied past Russia's Maria Sharapova, 5-7, 7-5, 6-3 in the final of the $3 million WTA Championships on Sunday to claim back-to-back titles at the prestigious season-ending event. The year started with Henin divorcing her gay husband, Yves, then she went on to win 10 titles, including the French and U.S. opens. (Ticker)/li>

  • A Mighty Wind: Did you hear about Tom Cruise's latest freakout? (OK, it's kinda old. But I'm just hearing about it.) The midget actor was recently granted permission by the German government to shoot "Valkyrie"in Berlin, a new film based on actual events about a plot to assassinate Hitler at the height of World War II. A delighted Tom decided that the cast and crew should observe a moment of silence to honor the anti-Nazi heroes. However, the silence was broken when a crew member cut one, which infuriated Cruise almost as much as people who've shelled out 12 bucks for his last five crappy films. (TheBlemish)

    Those cameras are an outrage - spying on our Navy Midshipmen! I think I speak for all Springfield when I say, "Where is the sexy footage?!"

    You couldn't be more wrong about Bonnie Brown, retired masseuse for Google. If you saw her up close, you'd agree: she's gorgeous!

    You can read more about her on her Web site: www.GiigleBook.com and read excerpts from her yet-to-be-published book: Giigle.
