8 OP by charlene lichtenstein OUT IN THE STARS The Sun gets us into things? various forms of mischief when it moves into Sagittarius this out in the stars OP week. Suddenly our outlook is expansive, optimistic and virtually unstoppable. No excuses, compadre! Get those gams going! ARIES (MARCH 21 - APRIL 20) Gay Rams are catapulted into a new course of study or a different direction in life. You can be tempted to pack your bags and plop yourself in some yet undiscovered, exotic center of action. How exotic is up to you, but I would choose Paris. TAURUS (APRIL 21 - MAY 21) Yo ho ho sexy queer Bull; what is going on below? Be careful that your blind, indiscreet lust does not carry you away on a turgid tide of briny foam and deposit you on a sand barge. Build on loyalty, caring and devotion as you cruise along. GEMINI (MAY 22 - JUNE 21) Relationships suddenly become the focus of your attention. You may wish you were on your own, free of commitment and restriction. You may chafe under the leash, but some folks like it that way. And they are waiting in the wings for your exit. CANCER (JUNE 22 - JULY 23) Suddenly job obligations explode and you can feel overtaxed, overstressed and overworked. Don t risk colds or flu because the paperwork isn t in by 5 p.m. There is always tomorrow... or next week... or something, some time in the future. LEO (JULY 24 - AUG. 23) Party hearty, party hound, but be prepared to pay the piper lest you become a tired and dissiapted party poop-out. The temptation is to take things to the outer limits but fates place tacks on your primrose path. Peek before you pounce, proud Lion. VIRGO (AUG SEPT. 23) This week you may not be especially diplomatic and you could wind up saying something impolitic and landscape-changing. Hmm, then again sometimes you have to upend the earth to be able to plant anew. Get those lavender fingers dirty, Virgo. LIBRA (SEPT OCT. 23) Pink Libras should be prepared to have all of their gaffs broadcast to the general universe. But don t panic; call em as you see em, cousin and let the chips fall where they may. Just be sure to stand under an awning as it all comes raining down around you. SCORPIO (OCT NOV. 22) Strategic queer Scorps are more concerned with dollars and cents this week. The secret to early retirement is to not jump in head first. Do your fiscal homework and find someone with deep pockets to help navigate all bumps and grinds. SAGITTARIUS (NOV DEC. 22) Your sense of self may be at odds with certain long-term relationships. Don t let ill-considered actions upend the domestic applecart unless you want it that way. Single Sadges take a trip to the moon on gossamer wings. Will it be one of those CAPRICORN (DEC JAN. 20) Closeted Caps are pushed Out. It s about time. Intuition is highlighted, but you already knew that! Pink Caps pride themselves on their pragmatism but now you happily coast along the cosmic flow and allow the sirens to finger your fate. Which finger? AQUARIUS (JAN FEB. 19) Reassess your social circles this week. Is it time to discover some new faces or do you just need to stir and heat up the current stewpot? Make your decisions with careful consideration. Once the door is slammed shut it is tough to pry it open again. PISCES (FEB MARCH 20) Guppies make great strides in their career. Think about what you want and where you want to go in your professional direction. It may also result in changes on the homefront. Oh, don t be afraid of change! Opportunity knocks... loudly!

10 p by kirk williamson hereas you may never be able to plummet yourself into a cokeinduced haze with Liza Minnelli and Truman Capote cracking gives you the next best thing (sans coke, Liza and Tru). Of course, I refer to 1 HEY, I M THAT GUY FROM hey, i m that guy THE from the magazine MAGAZINE W Midtangent Productions Holiday 54 this Saturday night. Miss Titania Divine does the holidays up Studio 54 style, with a heaping helping of hunkiness from our cover boy Anthony 54. A Halston dress is not required, but it sure would make a splash, no? Good to see Miss Stephen Rader at Hydrate for the Disco Ball to benefit Season of Concern. Diligent little paparazzi that we are, both CFP s Dave and I got there too late for the show, but we caught plenty of spectacle afterwards. Stephen is pushing for a resurgence of that classic ol Nightspots nugget Crotch or Bea Arthur. It may need a new twist. Be on the lookout for your next 1 Ryan and Ricky at Cocktail. pix by Kirk 2 Sparkle Motion at The Edge. pix by Kirk 3 Stephen Rader and friend at Hydrate. pix by Kirk 10 Nightspots NOVEMBER 28, 2007 installment of Armpit of Rue McClanahan coming soon to a bar rag near you. Also be on the lookout this Friday for Hydrate s Red Ball, to benefit Chicago House. So many balls... After forgetting to do up an ad for Randy s birthday at Jackhammer, I was damn sure gonna show up to the party and get some blackmail-worthy shots of the bitch. Lo and behold, once the camera came out, he was nowhere to be found. Let s do the math: if he had to blow one guy in the bar for every year of his life, at 2 five minutes a blowjob, that adds up to six hours and 35 minutes... and one tired set of choppers. Alright, Randy, you re forgiven (this time). It s as if I were struck in the head by an errant bird (Fabiostyle) at Cocktail because I was seein stars. First of which was my old friend Ryan, who is now back on Fridays and Saturdays. And then, a certain young Ricky from this season s Project Runway strolled in. Ryan and I totally perioded our pants. We believe in you, Ricky! And you to Steven, if you re reading. So The Edge is on the verge. Of a new name, that is. Word is that they are finalizing all their stuff and the new incarnation will kick off New Year s Eve. May I propose the name 17, only because as I walked in, a queen was on stage doing Stevie Nicks Edge of Seventeen and the nerd in me could not help but love the coincidence. Stella s still got it. What, I m not sure, but she s still got it alright. See what I mean as he hosts the Miss Continental Elite and Plus prelims at The Baton this Monday night. 3 And finally, a sober hello to Miss Fantazee Bordeaux, our favorite local crack enthusiast. We ll be hearing a lot more out of her soon... kirk@windycitymediagroup.com

20 Intermission Got a site for the World Wide Weird? graysong@windycitymediagroup.com INDECISION TIME Through Web polling, we can get a quick reading on the opinions of the masses (or at least that portion of the masses that actually clicks on Web polls), so that we can stay inside (or if you're antisocial, outside) accepted norms. Here's an all purpose alternative. Boil anything down to two choices. Pose your question and post photos representing your two choices. The brilliance of this is that you can manipulate the results through careful selection of those pics. Kind of like your own personal push poll AS IF ANYONE CARED Conspicuous consumption, meet Web 2.0. Cliqck allows you to post information about the last thing you bought and why. Now you can share with the world that you just purchased a new 8GB ipod Touch despite the fact that you have three perfectly functioning ipods with a combined storage total of 132 GB (and have less than a gig of data for them) because "it's cool." There's room for users to comment on your finds, but they won't. Nobody ever does, except to snark. Why? Well.. maybe because the site is populated by narcissists who think anyone gives a shit what they buy REMEMBER: YOU BREAK IT, YOU BOUGHT IT While we're on shopping, it's Black Friday as I write this and I'm glad to not be one of the masses huddled out in front of some big box at 4 a.m. to get a deal. I do almost all my shopping online. Retail stores are just showrooms to me now. (Except the Apple Store me going in there is like a junkie going into a heroin showroom. It's just best to stay away.) One of the beauties of it is you can easily shop from vendors all over the world, like this one in the Netherlands. Just be careful if you handle the merchandise. K? ALL YOUR PRIVACY ARE BELONG TO US Thanks to the Web, Warhol's 15 minutes prophecy is rapidly becoming true. Unfortunately for many of us the fame is going to be for doing something stupid. I wouldn't be surprised if the Urban Dictionary soon has an entry for "Colvin." Here's a warning for you. Bosses look at social networking pages and blogs. Don't ask for time off for a "family emergency" over Halloween and then post photos of yourself at a party dressed as a fairy. He might be tempted to call you on it with the photo an CC: the rest of the office Nightspots NOVEMBER 28, 2007
