Subject: Can't fly if you're Gay
Heard from a friend, who said she read about it in Herb
Caen, supposedly a true story.
An employee of USAir with the last name of Gay boarded
a USAir flight with a free travel voucher. Soon after
he sat down, someone else came and claimed he had the
same seat assignment, so Mr. Gay moved down do an empty
seat.
Soon after that the airplane began to fill up. The rule
with the USAir employee vouchers is that if a paying customer
needs your seat, you have to surrender it. So when the
flight became completely full and still more needed to get
on, a flight attendant went to the original seat of Mr.
Gay and said the the man now sitting there, "Excuse me,
are you Gay?"
The man, somewhat stunned, said, "Well, yes, as a matter
of fact I am!"
The flight attendent said, "I'm sorry, but you'll have to
get off the plane."
At this point Mr. Gay, who had been watching all of this,
jumped up and said, "Excuse me, you've made a mistake --
*I'm* Gay!"
Finally, another man jumped up and said, "Well, hell, I'm
gay too! The can't throw us all off!"

Lyrics:
I was cuttin' the rug
down at a place called the Jug
with a girl named Linda Lou...
When in walked a man
with a gun in his hand
and he was lookin' for you-know-who...
He said "hey there fella
with the hair colored yella,
Whatcha' tryin' ta prove?
Cause that's my woman there
and I'm a man who cares
and this might be all for you."
Well he was real mean,
big and bad
lawd, and pointin' that gun at me.
Now I'm tellin' ya son,
well it ain't no fun
lookin straight down a forty-four...
An' he turned and screamed at Linda Lou,
and that's the break I was lookin' for...
An' you could hear me a screamin' a mile away
as I was headed out towards the door. (Show me the back door!)
(corrections welcomed, I don't have the album :-)
Right Now...
Building X11 for 386BSD...
Silliness:
"sex, drugs, rock and roll, chips, dips, chains, whips, several
hundred kids running around in their underwear acting like animals..."
"If C is your second language (after e.g. Pascal or even
FORTRAN) and you can't absorb it after a few hours with K&R,
forget programming. You're not cut out for it."

Mike (River Phoenix) suffers from narcolepsy and a general lack of
