And that "gay power" salute they're both giving gives me chills to think of how many of our young might take up a sinful lifestyle because of inappropriate role models like Neve and Gliz. If I'm not mistaken, Gliz is a brand name for lubricant used by sodomites (and I only know this second-hand...so to speak).<BR/><BR/>They are an abomination.<BR/><BR/>Father GroperAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18710479.post-1139385580324921062006-02-08T02:59:00.000-05:002006-02-08T02:59:00.000-05:00I've been reading too much queer theory lately.

However, while the Torino symbol is on each one, it's small and my first thought was that they were nursery or preschool mascots.
