Dazzle Dancer Cary Curran Sounds Off Over Facebook Profile Deletion

Matt Connolly -

The surprise came when Facebook shut down her account as a result.

Morehouse Bans Crossdressing, Braces Self For Most Bland Halloween Ever

Mike Spence -

Kids these days and their weird outfits! Girls are running around thinking leggings are an acceptable substitute for pants. Guys let their pants hang down so low that everyone has to see their underwear. Guys wear skirts that go way to far above the knees, leaving absolutely nothing to the imagination... Wait a minute!

Lock n Load: BB Gun Shots in Alphabet City

Editors -
Showtime will premiere a new docu-comedy TV series that shows what really goes on in a gun shop located in Denver, Colorado, later in October. Lock 'n Load may appear to be something that should only appeal to gun fetishists and gun haters, but we are always reminded of the gun idiots of all stripes that surround us. There's currently a BB gun "sniper" shooting at innocents in Alphabet City. Nothing like the all-too-real gun violence that occurred last month on Avenue A, but also something people should be alarmed about. Is this just some kid's idea of a bad joke? Or are these warning shots of someone who needs to feel like he has a little power over his mad, mad world?

Russia Cuts Down On Cursing

Mike Spence -

Russia used to be that dangerous swinger who would get you loaded on vodka and send you home with three provincial wives. Now if you so much as say the wrong thing you can get in trouble. What happened to you, Russia? You used to be cool.
