    This is obviously anecdotal, but most of my gay and lesbian friends have at least a few friends of the other gender.

    The GoDaddy commercial, about 95 percent of the crap that currently passes itself off as TV programming, and about 99 percent of movies ...

    I don't care too much for any sort of kissing photo. Guess I'm not surprised at the shitstorm, but that's one more reason why newspaper websites shouldn't have a comments option. Facebook? Who cares about that gossip?

    So, hell, if you're the paper and want to run it, fine.... it tells a story. Just don't be surprised when a certain portion of the readership gets their underwear in a bunch. If papers get calls over running a simple car crash photo, what do you expect?

    When someone asked if they'd ever kissed a girl, I KNEW I would see this photo.

    We don't run pictures of our personal affairs in the city newspaper.

    What if those affairs include your mug shot?

    It still doesn't run in the paper. Only time my mug ever ran was with my column.
