Thanks for the wanks, Bobby!
Checkmate!

2. Elvis. A popular American singer.

3. Tito. A popular Yugoslav communist.

4. Kenneth Williams. A popular English whinger.

5. A token black dude [Subs, can you fill this in?].

Alan Turing: Like Socrates

A Centenary Celebration of the Life and Work of Alan Turing.

Strange now to think of you gone
One of the few people who is one of your actual geniuses.
If it wasn't for you and Tito we might have lost WW2.
Or not had computers and the internet.
Imagine a world without instant gay porn!
Bertrand Russell taught Ludwig Wittgenstein who taught Alan Turing...
They didn't get on; "You seem to be saying that if one uses a little common sense, one will not get into trouble."
Ah well, they say great things come in threes.
Like Socrates taught Plato who taught Aristotle.
Killed by The Man - maybes - for being a queer.
Like Socrates.
That's England's way of saying "Thank you".
The apple on your Apple maybes a tribute to the apple that killed him.
How strange Apple is now run by a fag.
Dat's progress!
I guess.

Elizabeth Taylor: 1932-2011

Any friend of Tito's was a friend of mine...

• Usually if you read the words "gay icon" all it means is that the person who wrote them is an idiot who doesn't know what they're talking about. Because of Liz's friendship and support of queens from Monty Clift to Michael Jackson, and her genuinely pioneering work to remove the stigma of HIV/Aids, this was a rare instance when it was actually appropriate: Elizabeth Taylor: A New Gay Icon - Paul Flynn, The Guardian; Statement from THT; John Waters remembers Taylor in The Baltimore Sun; Helen Rumbelow in The Times announced 'Elizabeth Taylor Was a 'Patron Saint' For Gays'.
What are "gays", please?

Fagburn very much likes this website, GayEcho Belgrade, from Serbia, although he doesn't really have any idea what they're writing about, and it could just possibly be nonsense on a stick.
Fagburn has a bit of a thing about the former Yugoslavia.
You know, Tito, the noble partisans, the non-aligned movement, workers' control, us bombing the fuck off out of them just cause they didn't bow down and worship the free market and that.
So just the idea of people being gay and Serbs thrills me.
Croats I'm less keen on.
Bosnians? Meh!
No wonder they had a civil war.
But I also like the way Serbo-Croat looks; "Boj Džordž večeras u Novom Sadu."
That's "Boy George comes to Novi Sad", I think.
It's somewhere in the north, and he's a much under-rated singer.
GayEcho appear to be having some trouble with Wikipedia, and their page keeps being taken down, the ever useful UK Gay News report, though I'm not quite sure when this was as there doesn't seem to be any mention of it on their own site.
Anyway, it wouldn't surprise me - Wikipedia is an idiots' paradise.
