Recast

Eric Massa isn't gay. Just ask his wife and friends. And "ask the 10,000 sailors I served with in the Navy," Massa tells Larry King. King didn't have to pick up a phone to find them. A few of Massa's former fellow sailors contacted The Atlantic. Peter Clark told the magazine's blog all about unwanted "Massa massages." Tom Maxfield claimed he was nearly snorkeled by Massa, a naughty nautical term that is the roughly the equivalent of tea bagging. Massa, the New York congressman who resigned after allegedly groping staffers, claiming he was the target of a plot by fellow Democrats angered that he was opposed to health care reform, is a dream boat for Republicans hoping to recapture seats, and maybe the majority, in elections come November.

Lost Boy

Corey Feldman, who has been speaking out about the death of his actor comrade, Corey Haim, took to his blog as he recounted events yesterday morning as his brother and sister awoke him and told him about Haim. "My eyes weren’t even open all the way when the tears started streaming down my face," Feldman writes.

Haim died yesterday of a suspected drug overdose in Hollywood that is being investigated by the local coroner.
