Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My god, moral soap now? I just want soap!

It kills all bacteria that don't repent of their evil ways and accept Jesus?

Bass-Lehmkuhl Friendship Sparks Gay Rumors

Former 'N Sync singer Lance Bass has sparked speculation he is homosexual and dating The Amazing Race reality TV star Reichen Lehmkuhl after the pair were spotted partying at gay bars together. Since the boy band leaped to fame in 1997, his bandmates Justin Timberlake, JC Chasez and Joey Fatone have been romantically linked to a host of female celebrities, but Bass' lovelife has remained low-key. The New York Post newspaper reported last week that Bass and Lehmkuhl - who won the 2003 prize in the Amazing Race with his former lover Chip Arndt - were together at gay bar Atlantic House in Provincetown, Massachusetts. Kevin Naff, managing editor of leading gay and lesbian newspaper The Washington Blade, tells ABC News, "Perhaps the Post is not outright saying Lance is gay. But by implication, we can all easily connect the dots." Naff says several bloggers on the newspaper's website have spotted Bass at a series of parties in Provincetown, a seaside gay hotspot. He adds, "If privacy is what Lance wants, that's something that's easy to have. But if you're Lance Bass, and you're going to the gayest town on the gayest day of the year and going to gay parties, you have to expect something." Bass' spokeswoman Cindy Owen and Lehmkuhl's spokeswoman Mara Santino have refused to comment on the Post reports.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I love Dr. Bronner's soap and use it, well, religiously. The writing on the outside is not so much religious as it is insane. According to Dr. Bronner, realizing that mankind is "All-One" plus good soap will save the world. It also says things like the only things needed for beauty are enough sleep and Dr. Bronner's Magic Soap.

Allyson, has your water feature bathroom issue been resolved?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think I read somewhere that the new rumor was that Lance and Reichen were going to have a reality show about Lance coming out. But now I feel that must have been in a dream.

So, you think that IMDB item was just a form of early promotion for the tv show?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

My god, moral soap now? I just want soap!

Dude, Dr. Bronner's Magic Soap is awesome! He was apparently mad as a hatter, but in a thoroughly benign and kindly way (though rather an abuser of exclamation points in his exhortations), and it's weirdly touching that although the rest of his family is apparently quite sane and non-batty, they adored him to bits and are honoring and continuing his legacy and not changing the soap or the labels since his death.

Also, really good soap. Seriously.

eta: Great article about Dr. Bronner and his family and his company.

I don't think I've ever seen it-- where can you buy it?
