Of Bloomfield and bases … courtesy of the City Paper

Lots of LGBTQ love from the City Paper. I know the man called Potter loves a letter to the editor and he has one today from Steel City Stonewall President, Dana Elmendorf.  She believes the paper unfairly described Onorato's LGBTQ support.  Potter disagrees. Go read for yourself. Speaking of Bloomfield, the City Paper provided coverage […]

Stop recruiting me.

Stop recruiting me.

I don't like being told what to do.  I support Joe Hoeffel and I think an impressive turnout from the progressive base will help Sestak AND send a message that we are a force.  I get that there are progressives who support other candidates and believe sincerely they are doing the right thing.  Which they […]

I don't know what the list means, but I'm connected to Bruce Kraus so it must be good.  I also received my Lesbian of the Year award in the mail.  Now I have to figure out where to hang it …

Celebrate Life, Celebrate Art – part deux

Celebrate Life, Celebrate Art – part deux

I took a stroll around the auction. I'm awed by some of the artwork. A painting called “Dell's” caught my eye, but I didn't catch who created it.  I think Persad is awsome and amazing. I donate to them through the United Way each year.  I refer many, many people there for all sorts of […]

Dyke March 2010 – Update

Just made my first visit to Police HQ. They have a silly little machine to gain entrance and not-so-loveable curmudgeon at the gate.  He started the hell out of me by looming over while I was waiting for someone — anyone — to answer my button pushing.  Not a good start. I almost dropped by Blackberry […]

Kagan for Supreme Court – Stood Up for LGBTQ rights against DADT

It was nice to post “hey, I got an award” yesterday, but when I took a peek through the google searches I had a humbling reminder LGBT blogs are important  … “lesbian support in Pittsburgh” “help for runaway gay kids” “lesbian support groups” “make lesbian friends in Pittsburgh” “gay partner abuse” I hope they found answers.

I got an award! "Lesbian of the Year"

I was tremendously tickled to learn that the readers of the Keystone Alliance/Gaylife Newsletter have voted me “Lesbian of the Year” for 2010.  I am in the company of my great colleagues and friends, including:   So who are these fine folks? Together, The Keystone Alliance/GayLife Newsletter is a Multi-State, National Gay Organization. We raise […]
