Actually, if any of them were gay, I'd have thought it was Jones. And if any
of you have to ask why, you haven't been Monkees fans for too long. >)

Thanx! I didn't expect anyone to get that reference. ;-) Those shows are a
little hard to find in the good ol' USA, but I've managed to pick up 6 or 7
episodes. I'd love to find the 3 live shows they did! Anything with Mayall
and Edmondson is guaranteed priceless.

Well, not meaning to start anything...no really, I'm not... I've just always
thought that if any of the 4 were going to be gay, it would've been Davy. He
just has that foppish way about him. And he did seem to REALLY enjoy his
part in "Some Like It Lukewarm". But then, that's only my own arrogant
opinion (and as we all know, on amm opinions CAN be wrong). ;-) Honestly,
no harm intended. I'm sure he's quite virile to this day, and after all, he
does have several children. And, out of the 4 Monkees, I do think he puts on
the best solo performance, showmanship-wise.
Whew...I hope I talked myself out of THAT one.

Well..I get it. And while it doesn't offend me it doesn't make me laugh
either. It never did. (The first time I heard it the subject was a guy
delivering supplies). It's the kind of joke that makes me go "Uhh..yeah.
Funny" and shrug. But then humor is a very personal thing....much more
than tragedy. The same things can make us all cry, but what makes us laugh
is almost as unique as our fingerprints.

Boy am I glad this *is* a joke. I was afraid, by the subject, this was gonna
start some serious...well stuff, pointless though would be.
I thought it was not so much funny as it was sorta cute. :)

What in the world are you talking about? From what I can tell of that
response, you seem to get pleasure out of your homophobic ideas.

You're right. I don't find gang-rape funny.

I have a clue, and I'm far from humorless, that is.. when I come across it.

<<>Frankly, I just don't get it.

Uhm, well .... nah, nevermind <eg>
My basic question is this:
Why do people have to automatically assume that because someone doesn't find
something funny, that they're necessarily "humorless", and then there are those
who feel the need to throw childish inuendos and insults.
The lack of acceptance among people in here continually amazes me.
For the record, I thought the "joke" was, at best, a groaner ... certainly
nothing that caused me to laugh out loud.

No, I am not even going to bother. What I will say is that this is exactly the
type of crap I have been against all along.
So now all I am going to do is just forward this post to the proper parties.
Have a nice day !!! (sarcasm intended)
Yeah, who cares....but listen bucko. I could swear I've seen your very
Monkee-saturated webpage and I thought you were a big fan. But if you are, why
must you envelop such private information if it is true. If it's true you're
degrading Micky, and if it's not true, well, you're both lying and degrading
Micky. Anyone who really gets into this stuff is a real sicko, so lay off the
junk talk.
Carol*Mel
Ok...so maybe this isn't the kind of thing you expect to read about Micky or any of the
Monkees..... and perhaps it's something that should NOT be shared, but just because Joe shares
it doesn't mean he's not a fan. Not all fans have the stardust in their eyes and not all fans
keep hte guys on pedestals or see them as the young men they were. Some of us look at them and
see four human beings who are sometimes good and sometimes not so good, who have likes,
dislikes, weaknesses, faults, talents, strengths and all the other things that make each of us
human. And many of us have found out that we like them much better knowing all these things and
seeing them as imperfect like the rest of us than we did as "idols" with few if any faults or
weaknesses.
A lot of what is deemed "private" is a matter of judgement. THese types of stories have been
around for a long time, so what he's doing isn;t really revealing anything new. Just repeating
things that have already been talked about etc. And while I agree it's more than I care to know
I think this is truely one of the gray areas....

THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU !!!! THANK YOU !!!! That is exactly what I have been
saying all along and they just don't seem to get it. Again, ONE MILLION Thank
You 's!!!!!
What's so nasty? The fact that he shared something gossipy about Micky or
that Micky may swing both ways? I think your homophobia is showing, miss.

The difference between what Joe posted and what David posted is pretty simple:
Joe posted gossip. David didn't. I doubt anyone would really have ganged up
on you if you had taken your stance against what Joe had wrote. But you ganged
up on David for repeating something that Micky has made public record.
*important* DAVID didn't make it "publicly archived", MICKY did ... get it?
... you should really heed your own advice and listen to logic. There's
nothing shameful with admitting you're wrong.
Mary
because the national enquirer wouldn't pay to print it, there isn't interest in
that...
Erika
>There's nothing shameful with admitting you're wrong.
No there is not. And I have no problem admitting that I am wrong when I am.
But I do not feel that I am in this case. What you and the rest don't seem to
get is that I wasn't objecting to the *actual* statement that David made. I
was objecting to the fact that Micky's personal/private life was being referred
to. And being done in a newsgroup.
Now, do you get it????
Well, maybe we should just have laws outlawing the stupid people. Then
the rest of us could get on with our lives.
