Originally uploaded by Mirandala It’s in the bag. Put a rainbow-tinted fork in this year’s Pride Weekend Scavenger Hunt. The competition was fierce and fun and the judges salute all the participants for their energy and creativity! However, in the words of the Highlander, “in the end, there can be only one!!!” Er, except for this year, when there is a fabulous TIE! Coming in at an impressive 62 points each were Team Pigger-Upper (Collene, Anne, and Kate) and Team Cougar (Linda and Renee)! Congratulations, ladies! Honorable Mentions must also go to TheTodd’s Team, Team High Noon, and Team Laura/Susie ...

It's the last week of June and that means I need to continue on in my all queer themed posts for June Thursday 13s.  I'm glad it's the last week of my self-imposed theme because I don't like being told what to do, even when it's me doing the telling.  ... ...

I feel like crap right now. Anyway, why is it that when you're walking down the street feeling fresh with perfect hair, clear skin, and your awesome new shoes all you get is ogled by a creepy Mexican man looking you up and down saying "Jes, jes, jes..." but it's not until you're already three sheets, falling over, and have just eaten a plate of fries the size of your head (which NOT SURPRISINGLY makes your FACE look like a plate of fries) that you meet the charming sexy man of your dreams and he's Spanish and rich and his ...

Wesley Clark stands by his dressing down of John McCain. The U.S. doesn’t find Boy George appealing—so his first tour in ages is officially off. I guess America doesn’t know a good drag queen when we see one. No charges for Virginia men who managed to get married thanks to bridegroom Justin ("juh-STEEN") being very in touch with his feminine side. MySpace and Rock the Vote launch a DemROCKracy Band Competition to amp up the youth vote. The band enticing the most voter registrations through MySpace’s user registration tool (found here) can win prizes, ...

In New York this year, we have our annual Pride march happening tomorrow, but we are not able to go this year. With my rehearsals and Mark just starting with his real estate, it doesnt look like we would be able to make it. It's OK because it is supposed to rain. Nothing sadder than seeing soaking wet drag queens with makeup running down their faces.In honor of Pride, I'd like to take this opportunity to plug a site I have been recently asked to join. It's called Coming Out 101 - The site offers insight and comfort ...

dl: SGT. SASS f/ MIRROR BOIYZ - Fags In Space (YSI) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- I came across a profile on a certain social-networking site with the following quote--"I prefer to think of gay culture as EM Forster and Stonewall instead of rainbows and self-destructive female celebrities." This quote stuck with me as I walked to lunch today and noticed all the restaurants and bars that dusted off their rainbow flags. The concept of gay pride has always made me slightly uneasy in the stomach, as I indicated two years ago on this very blog. My uneasiness wasn't ...

So, the 16th Annual Erie Pride Picnic is this Saturday, June 28 from 1 to 6 PM at the Rotary Pavilion at Presque Isle. Full details are at the web site.

Tonight is shopping for pop and etc with Jeff. Tomorrow is picking up stuff, including ice, buns and assorted what not. I inventoried what we have, so that should be ...
