Glad it's online.

Fun story - I made James Randi laugh. Several years ago, he was giving a presentation in the city I lived in at the time so I went and went early. He was setting up, and there were two other people (lady and man) already seated, and we looked at each other in half-recognition, and the lady asked me, "This might sound strange, but by any chance, are you Gay Monkey Man?" "Yes, I am." That got his attention, and he said, "Okay, I have to hear the back story on this." I said in grad school, cheap entertainment was supplied by evangelists coming to campus to yell at us about how we were all going to hell, and when one of them got around to homosexuality, I asked about gay animals - specifically, since they're found in nature, that would mean homosexuality is natural since animals don't have souls (I correctly assumed the evangelist believed this), and therefore can't be sinning. The evangelist was actually quiet for 30 seconds, and you could see the gears turning, and finally he said, "God gave Man dominion over the Earth, but Man's sin covers the Earth, and infects all that we see." To which I replied, "So, there are some gay monkeys in Africa fucking right now, and that's somehow mankind's fault? Are you THAT stupid?" He ignored me so every now and then I would yell, "Tell us about the gay monkeys, damn it!" until he left. So I was known as Gay Monkey Man by a lot of people on campus.
