The inimitable John Kelly embodies Samuel Steward, who left his teaching post at DePaul University in the '50s to become a major tattoo artist and gay pornographer. (BTW, Justin Spring's biography of Steward, Secret Historian, is well worth reading.)

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: This is the time of year for chic Thai Uncle Boon's, where the Bangkok street-style frozen Beer Slushy is quite possibly the most refreshing drink out there.
