A new issue of Blair is online!
From one of my favorite articles in one of my favorite issues, Madame vs. Lester vs. Lady Elaine Fairchild:
America doesn't want to see a messy queen but they LOVE a sassy old lady. Look at the Golden Girls for example. You know some fag was like
"I have this fabulous idea. Four gay guys live together in Miami. One's sassy, one's sexy, one's stupid, and the other one is tall and ugly and they sit and gossip around a cheesecake!"
The producer was like "Switch the fags for old ladies and it's a hit!"
Let me tell you that I never can watch the Golden Girls without laughing aloud at this thought.
And yes, I watch the Golden Girls more often than I should.

And if you threw a party. And then invited everyone you knew...you would see the biggest gift would be from me.
And the card attached would say: thank you for being a friend.

Me too. And it's rather sad, because most people my age are watching Dawson's Creek... and I'm switching to Lifetime to laugh at Bea Arthur. Maybe that's why I have no friends with which to sit around a small kitchen table and eat cheesecake, making idle threats to send each other back to Shady Pines.
