AIR FORCE CONSIDERED GAY 'LOVE BOMB' AGAINST ENEMIES

Quote
The Air Force on Tuesday confirmed a report that in 1994 a military researcher requested $7.5 million to develop a non-lethal "love bomb" that would chemically alter the state of mind of enemy troops and make them want to have sex with each other rather than fight.

Wasn't a prototype tested in San Francisco?

The Zach and Cody show starts up again this afternoon and continues for the next 10 days or so.

:)

Neat - you can post daily pics of them instead of your usual walks down trick-memory lane :D

Thank you one and all for the good vibes regarding my back. Unfortunately, it continues to get worse, not better.

DR MissKaren - Nice quote.

Isn't it though! I saw it once...or twice...or like a billion times on some website. The guy I stole it from is this master pianist in NYC who is a real bard when it comes to quotes that fit real life, daily situations -- so I find they just stick in my brain and I've got to use them all the time..but I always try to cite my sources and give credit where credit is due...

DR Miss Karen, you should know that the total post numbers at HHW plummetted precipitously in the period you were away...

But things are looking up!   :)

Yes, it was much easier to catch up if one missed a day.


It's still tough to catch up if one misses two days....but not impossible.


Unless one of those days is Tony Awards Sunday.


Which no doubt would have had 1000 more posts had you been here.


And BK would have been "I've gotta tell ya"-ing many, many more times.



;D

DR MissKaren - So, what's your DR and DR Cason up to lately?  Has his Cabaret opened and/or closed yet?  Have you seen it?  Just wondrin'.

Boo-Key has been most swamped.  "Cabaret" opens the last weekend of this month, and then runs the following two weekends in July.  He actually has a rehearsal tonight.  A couple of weeks ago I was in LA and got to see one of their rehearsals.  They were working on several of the musical numbers -- and I was real impressed with all the choreography.  The cast is a group of 20-somethings who all seem most talented.  The "Money" number was awesome so I look forward to seeing the entire show. He is juggling rehearsals between "Cabaret" and "Bukowsical" (he's the understudy for all the male parts), which will go to the Fringe Theatre Festival in NYC in August (with some previews at the King King in LA before it heads east). They made it sound like he'd get to do one of the shows in LA, and possibly one in New York cause one of the cast has a wedding to attend during one of the festival weekends, so if they get booked to perform the day/night of the wedding, Cason's in.

Oh, I forgot to put that the Gary co-creator guy of "Bukowsical" is a buddy of bk's - and he saw Case in "The Brain From Planet X", and then bk hooked them up for the audition -- so we have bk to thank for the Bukowsical gig...Thanks, BK!
