Book Club: X&Y: Letters from my bathroom by jinnwoo

See work/photography/art/poetry by jinnwoo here.

Reader review:

I have been witnessing the miracles that would be benny’s artistic endeavors for the past two or three years, and let me be the first to tell you that his writing is truly amazing. there is wine, there is sex, there is love, there is joy, there is drama, there is pain, there is sensuality, and there is a depth that is impossible to fully grasp. his writing is sultry and you will never ever stop wanting to read it. even his “boring” blogs and “boring” poems are a good read. Benny is truly an amazing person and it shines through in his fantastic writings. the price is cheap and the quality is top! please, please support him! he deserves more than what this book costs! plus he’s going to be famous one day and won’t YOU be sad when you realize you didnt buy that super rare and out of print poetry book? so you’d better snatch it while it’s here!

Flicks: Just don’t say the word “Gay”

Queer Beacon responded to my comment on his review of “The Devil wears Prada.”  I just couldn’t believe that a movie about fashion with some obviously gay characters was afraid to even mention the subject–even in passing, for God’s sakes.  Never a problem to make fun of the gays though, with every stereotype possible.  Man, what progress.

Here is the QB post, stolen without permission:

Q: Canadian Mounties Wed

What a country!

METEGHAN — On a Friday night in Yarmouth this June, Const. Jason Tree and Const. David Connors will don their scarlet dress uniforms, stand before family, friends and co-workers and wed in the first same-sex marriage in the RCMP’s storied history.  More.

Black Box: Will & Grace Redux

OK, so the finale sucked.  I noticed that the writers for this episode were the original creators.  From what I can tell they are not the regular writers.  That is just to say that the writing for this episode was just awful.  The last show was just a miserable failure.

That aside, I am grateful for the show.  I have noticed how conveniently so many bloggers complain about this show.  (See Malcontent for a sampling.)  But, in the end, I know we will miss it.

Nothing has even comes close on television.

I distinctly remember back in 1998 reading in a magazine about this upcoming, groundbreaking, new show.  Unfortunately, I was the real Will Truman at the time.  I worked for a big NYC law firm, and there was never a Thursday night that I was home from the office before 10 p.m.

It was only when I moved to Seattle years later that I was able to enjoy the show as part of the exteneded happy hour at the Manray.  I can tell you that the Gays were so happy to receive the show.  Laughs were perhaps exaggerated, and I think everyone was simply glad to have 30 minutes to see some part of their lives and humor reflected.  It was somehow validating.

Besides that, it was just funny.
