Constructive Cynicism

From Gay.com, “Howard Stern’s impact on the gay community.” He hired openly gay actor George Takei. He gave a rave on-air review to “Brokeback Mountain” a while back.

The fine folks over at Phillyist are composing various countdown-to-’08 lists this month, one of them being the Top 10 Collapses of 2007. Among them, Rosie O’Donnell, Anna Nicole Smith and Amy Winehouse. My favorite, though, is Britney Spears who ranks at number 2.
