Half of me thinks its refreshing to see big-shot politicians act as awkward as normal people. The better half of me cries inside, knowing that person is our president.

Borat’s creator and star, Sacha Baron Cohen, has managed to pull some embarrassing pranks over the course of his career. While filming for his upcoming film about “Bruno” his gay Austrian character, he set up a cage wrestling match in Arkansas, offering $1 beers and “hot chicks, cold beer, hardcore fights”. But the crowd got a bit more when, instead of the hardcore fight they anticipated, they saw two actors stripping off their clothes, kissing and “rubbing one another”, according to local police. From News.com.au:
“While the owner of the venue claimed to have been deceived, local police said they had been tipped off that the event was a prank - but they were still surprised at how far organisers were willing to take it.”They said it was to essentially poke fun at wrestling - two guys rolling around on the floor, all sweaty,” said Fort Smith police sergeant Adam Holland.
But the man-on-man display “went right up to the line” of the city’s morality laws, Sgt Holland said. He said that the crowd were enraged by the stunt, and began aggressively booing and throwing beers at the fighters as they rolled around the stage in a gay clinch.”

Jason Giambi, and his pornstache
Apparently the mustache that Jason Giambi has grown over the past month has become such a celebrity that Yankee stadium will be having a “Support the Stache” day, to rally votes for Giambi into the All-Star team. From nymag.com:
They’ll distribute 20,000 fake mustaches at Yankee Stadium tomorrow night, and they say the faux facial hair will also be worn by team broadcasters and maybe even players.
They’re even calling in the big guns, claiming the endorsement of the American Mustache Institute, which has provided one of its trademark over-the-top quotations: “Giambi’s significant first-half production as well as his powerful lip fur — indicating great intellect and good looks — make two very compelling reasons for his place on the American League All-Star roster.”

Fred Barnes advises John McCain to make gay rights an issue in the election to divide America.
The wacky folks at Improv Everywhere have pulled another prank. This one involved a bunch of identical twins, dressing the same and sitting on oppopsite sides of the subway.
It created a “human mirror” effect, causing some hilarious reactions from other riders. If you are a Binghamton student you make recognize one of the pair of twins, the Rosenblums, who are seniors at Binghamton.

Thousands of LGBT rights supporters marched in Budapest on Saturday, amid dozens of protesters who threw stones and eggs. By the end of the march, 49 were arrested and 10 injured.
The marchers came prepared for the backlash, wearing black plastic raincoats and donning rainbow umbrellas to deflect projectiles.
Police used tear gas and water cannons to disrupt violent protestors.
Local politicians were present as well, including Katalin Levai, a member of the European Parliament for the Hungarian Socialist Party, and Gabor Szetey, a former state secretary, who last year became the first government official to announce he was gay.
