  1. Uh,no Murphy's is as much a gay bar as Eli's or Nikita's. Regardless, you have a problem with gays hanging out at a bar?

  2. Sigh. As one of the people with the POWER TO APPROVE of comments here on the Eye, I'm sorry to say that a derogatory comment slipped through somehow. Actually, I thought I deleted it, since I found it offensive, but somehow it appeared in the "recent comments" sidebar", and Anon. 11:26 has already responded to it. Sorry for the lowbrow moment, folks - hopefully it's an isolated event.
