News Round-Up: July 14, 2017

People take much better selfies than I do LOL

Some news items you may have missed:

• Today's my 54th birthday! And where am I spending it? In a dance studio (above) getting ready for a production of Sister Act I'm choreographing at Sacramento Music Circus next month. Who would have thought 40 years ago when I took my first dance steps I'd still be doing it? Or thought I'd grow up to be a passionate LGBT activist? #grateful

• A new survey in the UK says 37 is the tipping point for being "too old" to go clubbing. And 37% felt it was "tragic" to see folks in their 40s and 50s out on the party scene.

• A homeschooling Christian mother got so mad at Teen Vogue for running a story on anal sex she burned the magazine. That'll learn'em.

• The only thing I love more than a bully getting their comeuppance is when the bully cries. A Portland, Oregon, man chased a Muslim couple in his car for 20 blocks shouting, “Take off the fucking burka, this is America; go back to your fucking country.” He now faces a hate crime of second-degree intimidation. #Good

• One of the stars of the TLC Christian reality show The Willis Family has been charged with four counts of child rape.

• Researchers in New Zealand have high hopes for a possible vaccine to combat gonorrhea.

• Sharon Stone shows stone-cold class in responding to a letter Madonna wrote in the 90s in which Madge refers to both Stone and Whitney Houston as “horribly mediocre.”

Louisiana Congressman Vance McAllister and his "Christian Wife"


In this campaign ad from Louisiana congressman Vance McAllister - who was famously busted kissing a woman who was not his wife on video - is joined by his "Christian wife" who wants you to know that a man's character is based on "how many times he gets back up and stands again."

I'm guessing that means the subconscious message she's sending is "I forgave him, so you should, too."

Although, I would be remiss in not pointing out that McAllister only "owned up to his mistakes" when he was caught on video.

McAllister is currently in his first term as congressman having campaigned as a "Christian Values" candidate.

McAllister is running in the GOP primary with five other candidates.
