Temptation is not necessarily a bad thing — but if you’re not thinking clearly it sure can get you in a lot (A LOT!) of trouble. I speak from experience here. Out of all the temptations in life, I think eating foods that are bad for us is one of the worst. Poor eating habits are at epidemic proportions.
In our hope to make a small difference, in this issue you’ll find a few articles relating to food. We’ll be trying to tempt you to eat all the foods of the rainbow — foods that are bright, fresh and good for you. There is so much rubbish that’s constantly being shoved at our faces that the “McLines” have been blurred between good and bad food. Nobody is sure what to eat any more, so we’ll eat anything it seems. Like all good solutions in life — keep it simple; go back to basics and you can rarely go wrong. So FUSE says: be free, gay and happy — eat like a rainbow! p18.
Also this month we have an exclusive interview with the stars of the hot new TV show Glee. Tony Hamlyn sat with both Chris Colfer and Lea Michele who let him in on all sorts of gay tit bits.
Debbie Tonkin writes about the invisibility of bisexuality. I always thought being bisexual just meant you got twice as much sex, but in fact it seems more complicated and misunderstood than most people realise. p24.
Bent Lenses will be enticing you at the end of the month with their popular QueerDoc and BentFest Film Festival. The festival will include some of the most deliciously queer films and documentaries. We have included a full line up of the festival program and some juicy preview shots. At only ten bucks a ticket, it will be hard not to spend the whole week in a dark room with a bunch of queers ;-) p16.
And talking about temptation — Catch the Fire Ministries apparently thought Canberra was so overrun with evil (manifesting itself in the form of such nasties as gay marriage etc) that it needed a good old exorcism. So they drove all the way from Melbourne to Mt Ainslie to perform said “exorcism”. A whole bunch of Canberrans from all walks of life — gay and straight — decided to join them to let them know that we are actually all rather nice here. More in The Trap p08, photos p36.
FUSE07, another great issue! Grab a red wine or a coffee (red wine and coffee are both full of antioxidants — but don’t overdo it!), find yourself a nice corner or spot in the sun, and be tempted.
Enjoy, Alex
