Pittsburgh Gay Fest 2007: Pride in the Street
A Little Gay Round Up Makes Everyone Happy
New York Governor Elliot Spitzer plans to introduce legislation to legalize same sex marriage in New York. What can we say other than — yeah!

Allegheny County Dems Invite the Gays Over For a Chat
Just received this announcement about an upcoming event sponsored by the Allegheny County Democratic Committee. Hmmm … here's my initial reaction.
