I’ve been meaning to correct a reference in my Coming Out Story to an old rock poster that caught my adolescent eye back in the 70s and finally got around to it now.  The reference comes in episode two, where I defensively tell my libido that I once stared at a poster of Vanessa Williams for an hour.  Several readers have pointed out to me that it would have been impossible for the model in that poster to have been Vanessa Williams back in 1971.  Yeah.  It was Vanessa Redgrave.  Here it is btw…

…and I’ll tell you what: Even knowing now that the model is a woman, I would still hang this poster on my wall in a heartbeat if I had one, because with very little effort I can still see a goddamn foxy guy in it.  Sorry Vanessa.  Really.  My head just works like that. 

I swear I researched this and yet I Still mucked up the name when I was doing the captions in that cartoon.  If that really had been a guy in that poster I’d sure as hell have gotten his name right.
