The Chicago Tribune has a knew hip and with it tabloid named the RedEye. This sib of the Trib, as they like to say in their masthead, contains hard-hitting stories like Lindsay Lohan's tell-all interview in the February issue of Vanity Fair of her eating disorder and how to properly hydrate one's skin.
This progressive tabloid also has a gay columnist aptly named Jason Steele who comments, apparently, on all things gay. In his column "Boy on Boystown" on January 5, Steele talks about gay marriage and why it is ludicrous that he can't marry his pardner, Brad. Now, I couldn't agree more with Jason on this point. But, who really gives a damn? We have way more important things to worry about. Nope, after his succinct and lucid argument on why gay marriage should be allowed, the RedEye wrote:
JASON STEELE IS A REDEYE SPECIAL CONTRIBUTOR - in caps, no less. Wow.
Moving on, let's rok a couple of tunes that have been in my iPod for awhile now - first, Psapp's "Chapter" and then "Skillz" by long-time playas, Gang Starr.

If I were gay, I would begrudgingly not marry you. You're dreamy.
Did you mean to spell partner; pardner?
First, Thunder, it is great to hear from you thanks for your kinds words. That was really nice of you to say that you if you were gay you would not marry me. I think your're dreamy.
OpAmp, yep I meant it. It was my small, little ode to the Brokeback Mountain boys.
I think they should rename Jason Stelle's commentary the "Brown Eye".
Anyone heard anything else on the Psapp album?
dig it! might have to check it out.
Jules, glad you could make it. Might be a little to crazy sounding for you re: the Psapp. Naturally being me, I only choose the best songs from any given disc.

naturally. of course.
Thanks then, I won't waste my time.

Oh, and don't distress. I'm always here, ever-watching, with my stalker-like tendencies.
Ha. Made you look over your shoulder, didn't I?
