My mom would always say, "Every day is Kid's Day." To all those heterosexuals that bitch about gay pride, I say the same thing: Every day is heterosexual-pride day!

Gay BBC Television Host Kristian Digby Found Dead at Home

Kristian Digby, the BBC presenter found dead at his home, may have died as the result of a sex game that went wrong.

By Laura Roberts, Telegraph On line

Police are investigating his death in "unexplained circumstances".

The post mortem is expected to answer the question whether he died of suffocation after deliberately restricting his supply of oxygen.

Auto-erotic asphyxiation, which has been condemned by police and medical experts as a dangerous practise, is said to heighten sexual arousal.

Kill Bill film star David Carradine died in June last year after his body was found in a wardrobe in a Bangkok hotel with a rope around his neck.

INXS singer Michael Hutchence died in similar circumstances in 1997 at a Sydney hotel although questions remain over the final moments of both men.

Mr Digby, who was the host of daytime property shows including To Buy or Not to Buy, died at his home in east London on Monday.

Ambulance crews were unable to revive the 32-year old at the flat in Newnham at 7.45am.

According to reports a belt and a bag were removed from the property for forensic tests.

A BBC spokesman paid tribute and said: "Kristian was a much-loved and talented presenter for BBC Daytime. He brought a real sense of energy and warmth to all the shows he presented for us and will be sorely missed. Our thoughts are with his family at this very difficult time."

Mr Digby is the third BBC presenter to die unexpectedly in recent years.

The presenter, who was born in Devon to a family of property developers, started his television career hosting Nightlife for ITV.

In 2001, Mr Digby, who was homosexual, presented That Gay Show on BBC Choice.

He went on to front several popular BBC shows, including Double Agents, Living in the Sun, House Swap and Buy it, Sell It, Bank It.

Mr Digby was also a director whose short film, Last Train to Demise, won the Melbourne Film Festival Best Student Film in 1998. Words of Deception won him a junior Bafta in 1997.

Friends and colleagues paid tribute to him.

Dominic Littlewood, who was Mr Digby's co-presenter on To Buy or Not to Buy, said: "There's not a bad word I can say about Kristian.

"He was a lovely fun, nice, jolly, decent person."

His agent and friend Jo Wander said: "I am devastated by the loss. He was a lovely guy and a very talented presenter and director. I will miss him hugely and my thoughts at this time are with his family and his many friends. He will be sorely missed."

Alistair Appleton, a fellow BBC presenter who is also openly gay, said: "Kristian was a fine, charming, complex, rather dazzling man. TV is duller and straighter and drearier without him. I was proud to have met him, hung out with him, known him a little.

"It’s desperately, desperately sad."

Jan and Marcia Brady Feud Over Lesbian Rumor

By Advocate.com Editors


A planned reunion of the cast of The Brady Bunch has been canceled due to animosity between Maureen McCormick and Eve Plumb, possibly relating to a rumor about a sexual relationship between the two actresses, reports RadarOnline. The six actors who played the Brady children in the iconic 1970s sitcom were scheduled to appear together Wednesday on the Today show, but plans for the televised reunion quickly fell apart when McCormick and Plumb each learned the other would be participating.

Plumb reportedly still harbors resentment toward McCormick, suggesting she implied there was a slight lesbian relationship between the two actresses to sell her 2008 memoir, Here's the Story: Surviving Marcia Brady and Finding My True Voice, when in fact there wasn’t one.

At the end of the tax year, the IRS office sent an inspector to audit the books of a local hospital.

While the IRS agent was checking the books he turned to the CFO of the hospital and said, "I notice you buy a lot of bandages. What do you do with the end of the roll when there’s too little left to be of any use?"

"Good question," noted the CFO. "We save them up and send them back to the bandage company and every now and then they send us a free box of bandages."

"Oh," replied the auditor, somewhat disappointed that his unusual question had a practical answer. But on he went, in his obnoxious way.

"What about all these plaster purchases? What do you do with what’s left over after setting a cast on a patient?"

"Ah, yes," replied the CFO, realizing that the inspector was trying to trap him with an unanswerable question. "We save it and send it back to the manufacturer, and every now and then they send us a free package of plaster."

"I see," replied the auditor, thinking hard about how he could fluster the know-it-all CFO.

"Well," he went on, "What do you do with all the leftover foreskins from the circumcisions you perform?"

"Here, too, we do not waste," answered the CFO. "What we do is save all the little foreskins and send them to the IRS Office, and about once a year they send us a complete dick."

Wise Words

Mold in the bathroom

To remove mold from the grout between the bathroom tiles in a spray bottle mix ½ cup 3% hydrogen peroxide solution and 1 cup of water and spray on the problem areas. Let dry, then wipe down the area.

Note: hydrogen peroxide loses its potency when exposed to air so buy a small bottle and discard after use.


QUOTE: Success, Emerson

"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success."

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Laughter is indeed the best medicine

The old adage has been backed up by a recent study. Findings show that people with a good sense of humor and a propensity to laugh may be less likely to develop heart disease when compared to aggressive, antisocial personalities.

Giggles, Gaffaws and Groaners...

A circus owner walked into a bar to see everyone crowded around a table watching a little show. On the table was an upside down pot and a duck tap dancing on it. The circus owner was so impressed that he offered to buy the duck from its owner. After some wheeling and dealing they settled for $10,000 for the duck and the pot.

Three days later the circus owner runs back to the bar in anger, "Your duck is a rip-off! I put him on the pot before a whole audience and he didn't dance a single step!" "So?" asked the duck's former owner, "did you remember to light the candle under the pot?"



When I had my surgery, the doctor gave me a local anesthetic. I could not afford the imported kind.



A drunk guy approaches a cute girl in a singles bar. “Hi Babe, how about a date? He says. “Don’t waste your time. I never go out with a perfect stranger.”

“It seems we are both in luck. I’m far from perfect.”



An idiot guy walks up to the door of a bar, rolling a wheel along with him. The bouncer says, “Hey, what are you doing with that?”

“Last time I came here, they said we had to have proper IDs and a tire.”



A mother mouse and her three children crept out of their hole into the kitchen and began feasting on some delicious bits of food. Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, Mother Mouse saw a cat slinking toward them. The cat was between the mice and their hole. The mother muse puffed up her lungs and went, “Woof! Woof!” The cat turned tail and ran. With that, the mother quickly led her children back to safety in their hole. When they were settle and breathing normally, Mother Mouse said to her children. “Now, what’s the lesson from that experience?” “We don’t know,” the baby mice squeaked. “It is this,” said Mother Mouse. “It’s always good to know a second language.”

THE WORLD NEEDS MEN ...

…who cannot be bought;


…whose word is their bond;


…who put character above wealth;


…who possess opinions and a will;


…who are larger than their vocations;


…who do not hesitate to take chances;


…who will not lose their individuality in a crowd;


…who will be as honest in small things as in great things;


…who will make no compromise with wrong;


…who will not say they do it “because everybody else does it”;


…who are true to their friends in adversity as well as in prosperity;


…who do not believe that shrewdness, cunning and hardheadedness are the best qualities for winning success;


…who are not afraid or ashamed to stand for the truth when it is unpopular;


…who can say “no” with emphasis even if all the rest of the world says “yes”;


…whose ambitions are not confined to their own selfish desires.


Our country is in great need of such men as we lurch from one crisis to the next. The times call for men who are motivated by the highest and the most noble ideals.


Men who are eager to give a whole lot more than they receive. Great men who are quiet in their greatness and whose mission is to serve, not to be served.


Men of faith who are not gods unto themselves. Men who are humble in the greatness.


Men whose lives reflect the words they speak. Men who do not fear the wrath of God because of the righteous life they live. Men who are set in their determination to do what is right even if it costs them dearly.


And, finally, men who are comfortable with themselves and their manhood.

WHY ARE WEDDING DRESSES WHITE?

A fresh-faced lad on the eve of his wedding night goes to his mother with the following question. "Mom, why are wedding dresses white?"

The mother looks at her son and replies, "Son, this shows the town that your bride is pure."

The son thanks his Mom and goes off to double-check this with his father. "Dad why are wedding dresses white?"

The father looks at his son in surprise and says, "Son, all household appliances come in white!!!

I Just Did,

Have a Great Week!!

Positive Mental Attitude!!

We can all learn a lesson from this great old girl!

The 92-year-old, petite, well-poised and proud lady, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o'clock, with her hair fashionablycoifed and makeup perfectly applied, even though she is legally blind, moved to a nursing home today.

Her husband of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary.

After many hours of waiting patiently in the lobby of the nursing home, she smiled sweetly when told her room was ready.

As she maneuvered her walker to the elevator, I provided a visual description of her tiny room, including the eyelet sheets that had been hung on her window.

"I love it," she stated with the enthusiasm of an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new puppy.

"Mrs. Jones, you haven't seen the room .... just wait."

"That doesn't have anything to do with it," she replied. "Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged... it's how I arrange my mind.

I already decided to love it "It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up. I have a choice; I can spend the day in bed recounting the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work, or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do.

Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open I'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I've stored away ...just for this time in my life.

Old age is like a bank account ...you withdraw from what you've put in.

So, my advice to you would be to deposit a lot of happiness in the bank account of memories.

Thank you for your part in filling my Memory bank. I am still depositing.

Remember the five simple rules to be happy:

1. Free your heart from hatred.

2. Free your mind from worries.

3. Live simply.

4. Give more.

5. Expect less.
