Steven Slater – a member of our team – Monday did what anyone who has worked with the general public at large has always wanted to do. Slater, a JetBlue attendant who flew a flight from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to New York City, lost it, stylishly, naturally. According to the official report “One passenger stood up to retrieve belongings from the overhear compartment before the crew had given permission. Mr. Slater instructed the person to remain seated. The passenger defied him. Mr. Slater reached the passenger just as the person was pulling down the luggage, which struck Mr. Slater in the head. Mr. Slater asked for an apology. The passenger instead cursed at him. Mr. Slater got on the plane’s public-address system and cursed out the passenger for all to hear. Then, after, declaring that 20 years in the airline industry was enough, he blurted out, ‘It’s been great!’ He activated the inflatable evacuation slide at the service exit and left the world of flight attending behind.” The 38 year old, who allegedly took two beers from the beverage cart before his fabulous disembark, was arrested a short time later and is tonight in police custody, charged with criminal mischief, reckless endangerment, and trespassing.

Ensign Steve Crowston, a limited duty officer with the Strike Fighter Squadron 136 in Virginia, has filed a complaint with the naval inspector, Crowston contending that the call sign his squadron choose for him was tantamount to workplace harassment. Crowston thought that earning his own call sign would act as a welcoming induction into the squadron, however when he walked in the ready room last year he alleges that he found aviators, including the commanding officer, mocking him as gay. Among the proposed signs were “Fagmeister,” “Gay Boy,” with the squadron settling on “Romo’s Bitch” which was an apparent reference to Steve’s adoration of the Dallas Cowboys and quarterback Tony Romo. “I was like, wait a minute? What the hell? You think I’m gay? What a way to tell me that,” said Crowston. Crowston did not say whether he is gay or not. His complaints of harassment and of the promotion of hostile work environment were found unsubstantiated by the Naval Inspector General’s office and he is still assigned to the squadron.

Worcester, England was to host its first ever Gay Pride Festival this September, but Monday, event organizers released a statement that the “project plan for Worcester Pride 2010 has gone through many changes due to the major developments that have occurred in Worcester and in the wider area over the past year. Due to the recession and a change of government, it has become more apparent that a large-scale event, as was planned for 2010 is not a viable as first hoped.” The postponed pride will, hopefully, occur in 2011.

91 year old Hudson Gibson, Mel’s father, was asked by Political Cesspool Radio Program if he believes the Catholic Church has been politicized to the point where the hierarchy is unable to address issues like homosexuality, to which Hudson answered “It’s not will to do so because half of the people there in the Vatican are queer.” He was then asked whether he thought Pope Benedict is gay, to which Hudson answered “I certainly do ... why else would he put up with this? He’s a slippery character.” He also stated that the Pope is a part of a Masonic conspiracy intent on destroying the church from within.

A blind item: “This celebrity couple is close to a final agreement over how everything – including the child/ren – is going to be divided in the divorce. However, the wife’s legal team is having her keep one chip in her pocket for the divorce trail. If the husband’s team tries any last-minute manoeuvring, the wife is not afraid to reveal an incident where she (along with their child/ren) caught her husband in bed with a family friend of theirs. The friend is a male professional athlete. In case you’ve been wondering why the two husbands are still close – but the wives rarely get together for more than an hour and a photo op- this is the reason.”
