After school cancelled prom due to a lesbian scare, generous hotelier offers to host alternate prom for free

Bookmark and Share

You know those scary lesbians, how dare they want to go to the prom just being themselves.  Well that’s how a Louisiana school feels after they canceled the senior prom because student Constance McMillen threatened to wear a tuxedo and bring a girl as her date. The horrors!

A generous New Orleans hotelier Sean Cummings has come to save the day.  Outraged by these dopey reactionary school administrators, Cummings has offered to bus the kids to the Big Easy and host the prom at one of his hotels.  I bet these kids will have one hell of a night to remember and I’m sure this will beat the school-sponsored prom they would have had.  McMillen, first reviled by her classmates for provoking the cancellation, will now be a hero. Funny how things work out sometimes.

Scientists create hangover-free booze

Check this. Korean researchers have discovered a way to create alcoholic drinks that reduce hangovers without weakening the drink.  How? By adding oxygen bubbles to the liquor

When you drink ethanol, you body needs to oxidize it to water and carbon dioxide in order to process it. This occurs via hepatic oxidation, where the liver does its thing to counteract the liquor you’ve just poured down your gullet. The enzymes that process alcohol require oxygen to function, and it’s thought that by storing the oxygen in the alcohol itself, the system functions more quickly and efficiently.
