“I just picked up Lucy from her abridged first day
of school and a little kid came up to me and said,
‘Are you her grandpa?’  I said, ‘No, I’m her daddy!’” 
– Andy Cohen shares a phrase he uses every day of his adult life –
but this time, it was while referring to his daughter.

Andy Cohen as a daddy?  We’re all used to that.  But Andy as a grandpa?  Well, that’s new.  But might I say that he handles these things with humor and is one of the most well-adjusted of our gay luminaries.  He’s always kept at least one Nike-clad foot in the real world.  But how would he feel about being banned from a gay bathhouse??  Don’t judge him – he’s dating, he’s not dead!  There is a gay bathhouse in Thailand – a country bursting with gay bathhouses – that is banning men over 55.  Wellmax is touting itself as a “state-of-the-art” facility which they claim is the world’s “first gay saunatainment”.  It is equipped with Himalayan salt sauna, dark herbal steam room, ice baths, overhead cold buckets, Hall of Mirrors, immersive rooms, a dry maze, a wet maze, and a relax lounge with self-serve ice cream.  It’s kinda like Disneyland – but with less gay people.  They allow guests aged 20-55 and their admission policy states that “photo ID may be checked at the door.”  Note they say “may” – not “will”.

Closer to home, the infamous Glendale Sniffer has struck again.  Calese Crowder was arrested last week after violating his parole, which stated (and I quote) that “he shall not come within 6 feet of people’s butts”!   In August, 911 received several calls from people who said Crowder crouched down and approached them from behind in a Marshalls – oh, the humanity!  Perhaps he mistook their slogan of “Get the good stuff” for “Get a good sniff”!  For the violation, he’s been sentenced to 170 days in jail, where I suspect he’ll have more than enough butts to sniff.
