It's 'Homo Light' - the gay softdrink
news.com.au ^ | 07/12/2005 | From correspondents in Oslo

NORWEGIAN homosexuals are set to launch their own soda brand, "Homo light", at an upcoming gastronomic festival, in the hope that it will help promote tolerance, one of the authors of the project said.

"The goal is not for us to make money but to make us more visible and accepted," Oeystein Mauritzen told AFP. Pear-flavored and pink, "Homo Light" will go on sale as a one-time offer at a stand at a gastronomic festival in the southwestern town of Stavanger between July 27 and 30.

Along with the soda, which will be sold in half-litre (about a pint) bottles for 20 kroner ($4.70), the group will sell rainbow-colored pasta salads.

Norway, which has allowed homosexuals to form marriage-like partnerships since 1993, is one of the world's most liberal countries when it comes to gay rights.

The current coalition government ironically combines Prime Minister Kjell Magne Bondevik, a Lutheran minister of the Christian Democratic Party who has come out against the partnership law, and openly gay Finance Minister Per-Kristian Foss of the Conservative Party.

And don't forget to enjoy a good rainbow-colored pasta salad.

I wonder if they tossed the salad real, real good first?????

I wonder what's in the secret formula.

I don't know, but I'll bet it goes down like raw eggs.

It'll only come in cans.

Like the old joke:

Do you know why Dr. Pepper comes in bottles?

His wife left him.

My god. There's nothing more appealing than a homo sucking on a bottle of Homo Juice. Is there?

No, this is a joke, right? A soda is going to make the homosexual lifestyle more acceptable?

Yeah, but the idea that he is seconds away from "deep throating" that bottle is creeping me out, big time.

We're missing the real story!

"openly gay Finance Minister Per-Kristian Foss of the Conservative Party."

I think their right wing has been so doused with liberals that its obvious. Can you imagine if the GOP candidate next Presidential Election, was gay?!

Yeah, I noticed that. And then also they have a Lutheran minister of the Christian Democratic Party.

While in America it's the Republican party - as per Howard Dean - who are made up of white Christians.

They already did about 15 years ago. Adam Sandler and Chris Farley did an ad for a beer called "Schmitz Gay."

And it was absolutely hilarious.

Homo Light. No fluid in the bottle, just a weiner.

knowing how those gays are so flagrant in their lifestyle, I think you may have given them some marketing ideas...
