• The Israeli Defense Force dropped singer Ivri Lider from a morale boosting show after discovering he only served a month of his required military service. In an exclusive interview with Out, Lider tells his side of the story:
I had a really hard time. I was very confused. I went to the army psychologist, and after I went two or three times, they decided I was not suitable for the army. They signed me out and sent me home.
• Bob Allen’s even more full of it. The Florida Republican disavowed his racist explanation for his solicitation arrest:
According to [a new] report, Allen said he went to the bathroom to avoid a lightning storm that was about to start.
The undercover officer went into a stall next to Allen’s. Allen knocked on the officer’s stall door to ask if he was all right.

Hey–Jossip, Queerty–don’t be all hatin’ on the bearded. Sure, the last one on the far right, yuck. However, the first male from the left—I’d let nerdy mccubbenstein do me.

It gets more ridiculous and more offensive as times passes. Of course, Allen is nothing compared to the mayor of Fort Lauderdale we have to put up with over on this side. 😉 Daniel

Bob Allen: “No, wait, actually, I remember it now. See, I was having a seizure because I forgot to take my insulin, and I hallucinated and thought the officer was Jesus Christ. I was certain that he said, ‘Take this and eat of it,’ so I went to his stall to receive communion from the original Heavenly Host and wanted to offer a donation to the church. That’s it.”
