Those of you who haven't been reading Hal Duncan's blog<\/a> ought to take a look at his recent entry \"The Homosexual Agenda<\/a>,\" about an attempt to pass an anti-gay bill in Alabama, and the UK's \"Section 28<\/a>\" (yow! check out the 1988 photo of Sir Ian in that Wikipedia article!). Hal's entry includes an in-your-face anti-bigotry pro-gay proclamation that I don't completely endorse but that I nonetheless think is totally fabulous. \"We will unleash the full force of our fury in a hissy fit the like of which you've never seen.\"<\/p>\n The writers among you may also be entertained by another recent entry titled \"Am I Famous Yet?<\/a>\" (about checking eBay for prices of bound proofs of his upcoming novel).<\/p>\n On a completely unrelated note, if any of you have ever wanted definitions for historical (European) clothing terms, check out the Glossary of Historical Clothing Terms<\/a>. Good stuff. See also the thesaurus<\/a> (\"a controlled vocabulary arranged in a meaningful manner\") of corset terms associated with the movie Dressed to Kill: The Merry Widow Project<\/a>.
