"Oh yes! He needs plenty of nakenedness due to his steroid scrotumizalation disease!

Call this tale "Nudie and the Beast." Former bodybuilder Mark DelCore, of Queens, is suing Fire Island officials for the right to have his dog escort him to the beach while he sunbathes nude - which he claims is the only medicine against a mysterious skin disease he contracted after 9/11.
The 1998 Gay Games competitor said doctor's orders make it necessary for him to go au natural at the beach - and on top of that, he needs his spunky rat terrier, Cheekies, by his side because the dog provides "emotional support and comfort."
A cloud of dust engulfed DelCore, who is now on disability, as he walked out of a lower Manhattan gym after the Twin Towers collapsed, and he says he developed a rash over his entire body a few weeks later.
"It looks like measles all over me," DelCore said yesterday about the inexplicable skin condition.
"I require exposure to the sun all over my body," the Forest Hills, Queens, man declared in the suit, filed this week in federal court in Central Islip, L.I.
DelCore, 39, is seeking a change to the Fire Island National Park rules against having pooches other than guide dogs on the beach - particularly in the area where he likes to watch piping plovers, an endangered flock of birds that inhabit the island.
While Fire Island officials say no one has ever complained about DelCore's birthday-suit bird-watching on the clothing-optional stretch of sand, the ex-banker wants to make sure the changes are made and that they stick.
A doctor provided DelCore - who is currently embroiled in a disability dispute with his former bank - with a note identifying Cheekies as a "service dog" that should be permitted the same rights as a guide dog for the blind.

What a waste of human protoplasm!
He should get disability for mentally ill.
Well, maybe not. But he does seem to be a nutjob.
Should we suppose that the remedy for his illness can only be derived from sunlight at a specific latitude and longitude?
His next legal act will be to change his name to Zsa Zsa.
"...as he walked out of a lower Manhattan gym homo-sodomite bathhouse after the Twin Towers collapsed..."
There; that's more accurate.
How cruel is this to subject a poor dog to the hot sun and temperatures on the beach for hours?
Interesting juxtaposition. Gay man, 9/11 "victim", American with "disability", PETA, Endangered Species, Federal land, Federal Court. The only thing this story lacks is Veteran and minority person of color........
What event did he participate in at the Gay Olympics? The POLE vault or the CLEAN AND JERK?
His dog is "Cheekies"?
Methinks the illness this guy got from 9/11 is FES - Flaming Exhibitionist Syndrome.
"Oh yes! He needs plenty of nakenedness due to his steroid scrotumizalation disease!
He should just marry the mutt. Then I'd like to see Beach Patrol try and stop him.
"Service dog"? It's Fire Island. He doesn't need a dog to get serviced.
Hey, Sparky, try some vitamin D in pill form. Ever heard of that?
Jerk.
I guess people who don't want to be exposed to his Royal Nudeness don't have any rights.
This guy gets off on being nude in public - to both adults and children. He's scamming big time!
So, is Mark going to clean up after Cheekies on the beach? (Or is that too stressful for him?) I guess that is one of the reasons dogs aren't allowed on the beach. It's a sanitary issue.
That's not a dog, it's a snack for a real dog.
This may be the first time ever that it was appropriate to simultaneously ping the two of you...
"I require exposure to the sun all over my body,"
WHAT?! Even your privates? Good grief, man, you could at least wear a Speedo!!
