wait, i thought all gay people looked alike (as do all jews / french people / chinese / etc., of course). are you saying there are some gay people who *don't* have a propellor beanie and a monkeyface mask ???

I did not say every gay man looks like him. But this one has makeup and lipstick all over him. My friends (even the gay ones) doesn't walk around like that.

On the other hand he has a ring - who knows - perhaps they want to appeal to the female bookworm as well ... hehe

or, maybe they put makeup on him for the photo, like they do for television.

Joblack, that ring is pretty clearly a wedding band. And why are we having this discussion here? How's the weather where you are?

yes, it is completely irrelevant to the discussion.

Personally I think he looks sort of goofy.

Well, that's good news!
It's nice to see they are serious about the kindle.

If you watch the videos Bezos pretty much confirms the international launch of the kindle! (I'd say first in the UK, since they cannot let Sony control the market).

yay
