Also coming up on the 10th.....and talk about SILLINESS....

First of all, the Web site is classic. It boldly states, "A day without gays would be tragic because it would be a day without love." Indeed, because heterosexual couples are incapable of loving. They get married for the sole purpose of creating kids who they may not be able to feed and clothe.

And calling in gay is totally lame. That's not even clever. The concept of calling in sick is that your present state of sickness inhibits your ability to work. Your present state of "gayness" does not inhibit you from working.

Not to mention the awkwardness of replacing the word "sick" with "gay," since they're obviously equivalent.

On the FAQ page of the site there was a question of why "sick" is used interchangeably with "gay," and if they were implying that gay and sick were the same thing. The following was posted as the Web site's direct response:

"It's just that 'gay' rhymes with 'day' so it was a cute and clever way to get you involved. HAHA! Now you're hooked! You're beautiful, very not sick and super wonderful. Help us spread service however you feel comfortable, SWEET THING!"

Does anybody else notice that this whole Web site seems to have been written by a high schooler? I think the movement could easily gain more credibility by amping up its writing standards to seem more professional, or at least intelligent.

If I were an employer and one of my workers called in gay I would probably just laugh. Calling in sick, or explaining that you plan to take the day off to do fundraising I could handle, but calling in gay?

To spare yourself embarrassment, call in sick. A nasty cold, tuberculosis, smallpox, polio or even syphilis are all viable excuses. Being gay is not.

And if you are a real beer drinker, splurge and take a beer bath.
