Also, I thought the trees in "Central Park" looked very thorny; reminiscent of the crown of thorns.<br /><br />I don't really agree that Lady Gaga "erases" the LBT part of LBGT. Is she obliged to mention each category in turn? And she did talk about Michael the German dancer being bi. <br /><br />Otherwise, I loved your review.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
