It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! Would you like a side of queer with your news?
- Stumped on what to get that special man (or beefy woman) in your life? Burger King has launched FLAME, a BK Broiler scented body spray.

Get a free copy of their Cable Babes 2009 calendar featuring the modem-installing, wire splicing heroes that promise to show up between 1 and 5 pm.
- It's time to rethink Don't Ask, Don't Tell, according to Colin Powell.
- After zoo keepers segregated a pair of gay wannabe-parental penguins in China (to keep them from stealing the other penguins eggs for raising), they gave in and gave the couple an egg to take care of. Turns out they're the best parents in the zoo.

The local Zapotec people have made room for a third category, which they call “muxes” (pronounced MOO-shays) — men who consider themselves women and live in a socially sanctioned netherworld between the two genders."
