Blizzard Babies!

Last year's enormous blizzard that kept Coloradoans snowbound has resulted in a baby boomlet. Len Gregory, spokesman for St. Mary Corwin Hospital in Peublo said, "We had more babies born in December - exactly nine months after the blizzard - than in any other month last year." Lynne Snyder, head of newborn services for Avista Adventist Hospital in suburban Louisville, added, "We were overflowing there for a while."

The March 17 snowstorm paralyzed Colorado cities for several days as it dropped nearly 9 feet of snow in the heavily populated Front Range along the eastern slopes of the Rockies.

Gift Services Inc. of Denver has been featuring a $60 Blizzard Bundle for blizzard babies that includes a toy, a footprint kit and a special treat snuggled inside a monogrammed blanket. A similar surge in Colorado births was reported in 1998, nine months after an October blizzard. We haven't yet heard about any baby boomlet resulting from the summer blackout that left millions in the dark last August, but we assume a similar surge will occur next May!

Casual Carpet Encounters?

Anyone familiar with Craig's List might have easily made this mistake. Chuck Cole placed an ad in a Colorado newspaper looking for someone to lay carpet in an apartment complex he owns. But readers found more than an innocent carpet plea.

The ad that ran in the Glenwood Springs paper was supposed to begin with the words, "Carpet layer wanted." However, those three crucial words were accidentally left out, which left the ad reading: "Three-hour quickie! Extra Christmas money. Cash upon completion. Ready right now." His cell phone was soon ringing off the hook with callers eagerly willing to help him out, but not with any laying of carpet. Cole contacted the newspaper, the ad was corrected and he eventually found himself a carpet installer. So now you know what to post when you're looking for a quickie!

Pissed Off…or On?

Urine has been said to have medicinal properties, but how is it as a substitute for Windex? Police in Tacoma spotted a young man standing on the hood of a truck, pissing on the windshield. The Tacoma News Tribune reported that the driver told officers his friend was helping to "unfog" his windshield. No word on whether the two are pissing fetishists, but it's a sure bet that there's more to the story than The Tribune is reporting - or than the pissing participants were willing to expose to the police! What on earth could he have been thinking?

Police also report that the suspect was yelling at passing cars. Yeah, well all THAT proves is that the guy was probably a bit "pissed," as they say in England. Regardless of what the underlying truth of all the yelling and urinating were about, we can certainly entertain our fantasie. The 23-year-old man was jailed for public urination as well as for having two outstanding misdemeanor warrants.

Don't Forget to Tip Your Tranny


NY's Lucky Cheng's pioneered a genderfuck version of "dinner and a show" with its scantily clad transvestite waitresses and sexy chanteuses in stilettos years ago in Manhattan's East Village. The proprietrix, Hayne Suthon, also opened La Nouvelle Justine, New York's only S&M theme restaurant, that has since folded.

Both dining establishments were never gustatory destinations. Not, mind you, that the food wasn't delicious…it's just that it's difficult for one's palette to discern distinct flavors when you're distracted by dazzling footwork and impressive tuck jobs!

Well, that lack of restaurateur respect has inspired a lawsuit. Submissions to the Zagat Survey by their numerous anonymous diners resulted in a negative review for the drag queen noodle house. Snide remarks such as "God knows you don't go for the food" raised the ire of owner Suthon, who is hoping to cash in with the court system. She has filed a $10 million suit against Zagat's, claiming the restaurant was "libelously attacked" by the negative review.

In addition the complainant wants reimbursement for $30,000 a week in lost income $250,000 in advertising costs. This isn't the first time Lucky Cheng's has been to court. Ms. Suthon appeared on one of TV's kangaroo court shows to fight a lawsuit with one of his tranny waitresses.
