Damn good article in today's LA Weekly about Paul Reubens.

Also in the same issue, an article as to how ravers use new technology. That's for you Rob.

[Abraham Smashington]

That was a pretty great article. I always felt bad for the guy.

[Ed Hocken]

It was real chicken shit on the part of Florida to nail him for jerking off. Nice work there, FL.

The only thing that confused me was the paragraph that compared Reubens to Hugh Grant. I didn't understand if the writer was saying jerking off was a gay act or that Reubens is gay. As seen here:

At a screening of Nancy Nurse in a XXX theater in Sarasota, where he’d grown up, Reubens was arrested for the victimless crime of masturbating. Had he been Hugh Grant — straight instead of gay and having committed the comparatively respectable crime of soliciting the services of a prostitute of the opposite sex — he might have bounced back after a year or two of mea culpas.

[Abraham Smashington]

Now if he was in a normal theater watching a flick and beating off? Then yeah, that would be proper fucked. But it was in a porn theater. What else do people go there for?

[Ed Hocken]

That's pretty much what people were saying 19 years ago.

THINK OF THE CHILDREN!

[Ed Hocken]

I really wish Bugs Bunny had sawed Florida from the rest of the country. Fuck that state so much.

[Abraham Smashington]

THINK OF HOWARD!

[Ed Hocken]

I think Howard would agree with me that Florida sucks.

Isn't that right Howard?

Hell, even southerners don't even like Florida.

[Howard]

Ehh. Better than Minnesota. Because it's warmer. Also, Mr. Reubens has been extremely secretive about his personal life (as is his right). Entirely possible that he may be gay but I like to think he play's for Rob's team.

Guess it all depends on the content of Nancy Nurse.

[Ed Hocken]

After re-reading that paragraph a couple of times. I'm inclined to believe the writer just said Reubens was gay.

Guess it all depends on the content of Nancy Nurse.

Go find out, will ya.

[Abraham Smashington]

Yep.

[Howard]

Guess it all depends on the content of Nancy Nurse.

Not necessarily. Unless Nancy Nurse was a solo film and the "star" was a female.

[Ed Hocken]

Still, the guy is 57 and looking pretty damn good for his age.
