    I'm having an internal debate about whether or not to click on that link and find out if there is actually a gay website called picklekissers.com. The downside is obvious and I don't think I can overcome it. In the end, it will probably remain a mystery to me.

    WRBZ has stepped up their article output, but it's usually crap A.P. releases. They do still have decent video, but that was always separate.

    Although I can't find new articles at theadvocate.com, I am seeing reprints from The Greenfield Reporter:
    LSU punter Brad Wing takes a lot of grief for his Australian background

    If they are trying to go subscription only, they are doing a crappy job. I'm starting to wonder if their entire IT staff went with WBRZ and they just don't understand how to fix problems :)

    Just do it.



    If you do, it doesn't make you gay or bi....it will make you what they call "curious".

    I start a perfectly good thread asking a legitimate question, and it just gets blowed up!

    The Advocate seems to be working again, although they still haven’t figured out on some links that garbage characters in a url render the link useless. Anyway, as with most things I was just impatient while they were having trouble with their site…

    The gay magazine was advocate.com and the BR paper was theadvocate.com. The 2 was added later because of affiliations with the TV channel.
