Goodbye – and Good Riddance Phillipe and Jorge were sad to see that Newport’s most famous gigolo, Claus von Bulow, popped his clogs the other day at age 96.

Editor’s note: On June 1, Thomas Tobin, the Roman Catholic Bishop of Providence, wrote from his official Twitter account: “A reminder that Catholics should not support or attend LGBTQ ‘Pride Month’ events held in June.

From Russia with Love We already knew that the NRA is slightly stoopid, but this takes the (white flour, American) biscuit. It was recently revealed that a 30-year-old Russian national infiltrated the Nobrain Reprobate Association – among others – in an effort to sway American sentiment in favor of the Kremlin.
