Wiener-dog slips out again, this time at a nude beach.

Thursday, July 13th, 2006

In an addendum to the previous post “Is your wiener dog emotionally supportive,” we now find Mark Delcore, a former body builder competitor for the Gay Games, suing the federal government for the right to have his rat terrier accompany him to a nude bathing establishment.  Mr. Delcore’s induction into the Generation Weenie club came on September 11th, when he was pumping iron in a gym near the World Trade Center.  During the terror attack, Delcore evacuated his gym but didn’t have time to dry his rock hard muscular body which was “dusted” with an unknown substance that resulted in a rare (in fact, unknown) skin condition requiring him to be in the sun, regularly and completely (a.k.a. nude).  Upon being denied access to the beach with his faithful service pooch, Cheekies, Delcore, who is on disability because of his condition threw out the post-traumatic stress disorder card (along with a GI track problem and a broken foot) and said that his disability insurance wouldn’t cover for him to move to Florida for more than 6 months a year.  And of course he added a clause in the lawsuit to require mandatory “Sensitivity Training” for the cop who tossed the queen.  Think I’m done?  It only gets better.  Poor Cheekies used to be a regular light in the loafer luxury on the beach…until some conservative “conservationists” got the anti-dog law enacted to protect the breeding rituals of the native Piping Plover bird, the result of which, ironically, endangers the breeding rituals of the troubled gay male.

Ben and Jerry’s new Weenie flavor ice cream, sold only in Ireland

Friday, April 21st, 2006

Seems the Irish found an ale they don’t like, the Black and Tan. And it was Ben and Jerry’s misfortune to make an ice cream out of it which apparently insulted the entirety of Ireland because of a 1920’s British Militia of the same name. Don’t need to explain this one myself. I’ll leave it up to the quotes in the article. “I can’t believe that Ben & Jerry’s would be so insensitive to call an ice cream such a name and to launch it as a celebration of Irishness … it’s an insult!” Of course, Ben & Jerry put themselves in the weenie conga line by issuing an apology.
