Sir Michael Gambon as Dumbledore. Questions abound.1 So...the Dumbledore comment from a few days ago didn't slip past some of you eagle eyes out there.
2 By now, the story has circulated around the globe and back again, putting a pretty tight girdle around the planet.
3 Ladies and gents, it looks like Dumbledore is gay. Author JK Rowling all but declared the robed one not only to be gay, but to have what one article referred to as a "twisted good vs. evil love affair with Gellert Grindelwald."
4 People were confused and discombobulated when confronted with this news.
5 Look.
6 The "fact" is that one in ten people walking around is either gay, bisexual, or both.
7 Run for the hills!
8 I'm constantly amazed that by 2007 ANYONE really cares who ANYONE else is attracted to.
9 Here's another shockeroo: Teletubby Tinky Winky has been declared gay for years. He's a man with a deep voice. He carries a purse. He has a triangle on top of his head. Hello.
10 {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{shock waves}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}
11 Before everyone dies of shock, I'm going to furnish you with a list of celebrities who are gay. I'm leaving out some of the obvious ones: Rosie, Ellen, any Wrestler, and any actor who plays a piece of fruit in Fruit-of-the-Loom underpants commercials.
12 Um...okay.
13 So, for your personal edification, I hereby unveil a partial list of gay people. Get a helmet:
Joan Baez
Chastity Bono
Richard Chamberlain
Leonardo da Vinci
Jody Foster
David Geffen
The very glamorous Leslie Gore.Leslie Gore

14 WHO-WEE!
15 The Lincoln one I just threw in for fun, but there is a bit of smoke.
Should we have called him Gaybraham?16 Here are a few more rumours, but take these with a grain of salt:
Idaho Senator Larry Craig
Kenny Chesney
Hillary
Tom Cruise
Hitler
Springtime for Hitler? The Fuhrer
in LederhosenMatt Le Blanc
Anyone who is publicly loud and outraged by gayness
If Julie Andrews were a dude, she'd be gay.
17 Always a hot topic, no?
18 And leave it to the DN to spread rumors.
19 Bottom line: does anyone REALLY care? Live and let live.
20 Yeesh.
21 Ah, admit it's fun to read.
22 Pink journalism.
23 Anyway, I hope this opens a few eyes.
24 Yeah, the rumors are just rumors, but the others are all fact.
25 Well, just thought I'd pinken up your day.
26 It clearly began with Dumbledore, and moved swiftly to Tinky Winky, which came up several times in the last few days.
27 And it always stumbles upon the reality that one in ten, folks.
28 Well, time to get to gettin'.
29 Hug a friend today, and don't worry about if they're gay, straight, or even a purpleTeletubby.
30 We're all just here with feelings and lives.
31 Let people live them.
32 Peace.
