This here's the trailer for the Jon Favreau-directed Iron Man, which stars our eternal crush Robert Downey Jr as the metallic hero. We're counting the days…

PS: For those of you who don't understand the headline, listen to Black Sabbath's "Iron Man," after the jump…

• Crazy comedy duo Joey and David drum up some laughs with this Gap-spoof. Also, QueerSighted's Kenneth Hill thinks that David's "hot". Pass it on.

• Hyatt Hotel ain't down with gay romance. A Houston branch of the hotel chain removed gay romance novelist Lauren Baumbach's very homo promotional materials. When she tried to reason with a customer service representative, he cut her off, "I’m not discussing this with you.” Must not be much of a reader.

• Boy George allegedly has a history of hiring whipping boys. From pop bitch: If George's New York neighbours are to be believed, [Auden] Carlsen is not the first escort he's picked up for this purpose. One tells us that George often brought young chaps back to his apartment for a session with whips and chains. The neighbour regularly resorted to banging on the walls and shouting, "Can you just finish him off quietly, for Christ's sake!"

• White House tells Press, "Only you can or cannot support Tony Snow."

• The World of Coca-Cola Museum will host an Andy Warhol exhibit. Because how else will the World of Coca-Cola Museum be taken seriously/get visitors/get press?

• Iron Man's movie suit revealed! (PS: Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man? Our nerd side says, "no", but our inner art fag says, "yes".)

• Illinois lawmakers are considering a bill to abolish the written consent law for HIV test. If passed, doctors will be able to test patient's blood without their approval and/or knowledge. While this may help curb infection rates, it also blurs the line between a person's rights and public health. Should doctors try to stem HIV, even if it means violating a person's right to privacy?

• Broadway star Denis O'Hare's partner was arrested for making a terrorist joke at an airport. We now know he isn't the funny one in the relationship. Terrorism jokes are so 2001.

• No doubt timed to prove his heterosexuality if his role in Brokeback Mountain is a tad bit too convincing, Heath Ledger becomes a dad.

• No stranger to homoeroticism (Top Gun, Batman Forever), Val Kilmer was the one who suggested he tongue Robert Downey Jr. in Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang.

• The Chocolate Show comes to New York November 10. It's an entire weekend devoted to the second favorite thing we love to put in our mouths.

• At first we thought 50 Cent disagreeing with Kanye West over Bush implied one of them was coming out. Alas, it was actually just evidence that American political discourse has reached a new low.

• He's no Harriet Miers (in more ways than one. We so miss the mascara), but Judge Alito might turn out to be homo-friendly. Stress might.
