Bear in mind that, in the Brady Bunch reference, Anderson uses himself as a surrogate for Mike, played by Robert Reed. Who was, of course, gay.

I’ve seen countless episodes of The Brady Bunch (born in ‘71 here) and I do not recall this alleged Grand Canyon adventure with Indian boys and Alice. Jordan’s (and my own) ignorance of this reference has less to do with age and everything to do with taste. Anderson, on the other hand, is one-hundred per cent certifiable and the decades of sexual repression are coming out (so to speak) a mile a minute. He also writes a monthly column for Details (where that BedBathBeyond anecdote premiered months ago) that he tries to butch up every now and then with war or Katrina discussion — but usually falls back into catty gossip and home decor. (The other two regular Details columnists are super-gay Augusten Burroughs and admittedly bi — and stultifyingly dull — Michael Chabon.)

Ahhhh Jordan….so bummed that Larry beat me to setting the record ’straight’ with the Brady Bunch reference. I must say…that was a big ‘miss’ on your part. Be careful with the snarkiness towards AC. When references start whizzing over your head, the old ‘glass houses’ adage comes to mind…
That aside, keep up the good work. I still give you an ‘A’.

I was born in 1985. Sorry?

Oh, and Anderson Cooper, my favorite newscaster. Here’s to hoping he goes all Heche on us.

Born… in… 1982…

I’m now officially an old man.

C’mon. I was born in 1982. When dudes talk about “packing up Alice,” I assume it means they’re on meth.

Don’t feel bad, Jordan. I’ve never seen an episode of the Brady Bunch, either.

That was a Brady bunch reference!….The Indian boy helped Bobby find his way back to the family after getting lost. Alice was of course the house keeper not his wife.
