Not since Tony Danza realized the difference between microwaves and toaster ovens in 1989 has there been such a revelation as there was this morning on my Loser Cruiser commute. During a bus-ride of, I’m compelled to say, skilled eavesdropping on my part, I discovered that Ebert watched all three extended-version Lord of the Rings movies back-to-back-to-back this weekend…with his PARTNER! That’s right, folks, Ebert’s gay!!! The only thing that could have possibly been more enjoyable than hearing him say his partner’s obviously-masculine name would have been hearing him call his partner “Gene.”
In other Loser Cruiser news, semi-regular Richmond Park ‘n’ Rider Plain Jane revealed to the Cruiser community what we all suspected but didn’t dare say (most because of common courtesy and respect; me because I don’t talk on the bus): she’s pregnant! Mazel tov!
