First, the banal …
I've been off the radar for over a week. I needed to recharge and rethink some of the ridiculous aspects of, well, everything. I've half-heartedly paid attention to the polls, but it was just last week I changed my screen-saved from “Elect Joe Hoeffel” to be honest with you. Hardly a rousing endorsement. I also […]
Saturday
I'm hanging at Hoi Polloi today. I fully intended to find good information on LGBT community, but I've been distracted by the Scrabble and news from the earthquakes in Chili and Argentina. So here's a little round up. An Italian chef was fired for suggesting, however tongue in cheek, that people could cook their cats […]
Sunday This and That
Brrrr… I'm meeting with someone from the Pride Committee today to chat about their plans for 2010. It is very nice to think about Pride aka June on a day like this. I like days that lead to snuggling on the couch with a book, but not to going outside for errands. Unfortunately, I need […]
Finally, Pgh Media Discusses G-20 Issues Rather Than Tactics
I am thrilled with today's Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. I don't agree with all the content (the gushing over Stanley Lowe made me choke), but the fact that we have content on a Sunday rather than New York Time reprints is wonderful. My delight was tripled when I read the piece on the G-20 by arguably the […]
I went to a meeting and New Hampshire got marriage equality
Big night. First, how about New Hampshire? Now six states offer marriage equality to their residents. Second, the Humane Society recycling fiasco gets increasingly snarled. Matted, perhaps? Read the article and tell me if you share my outrage that the local organizations are upset MORE about their lost profits than by the toxic destruction being […]
Happy Ana-versary!
One year ago, we adopted our little Ana from Starfish to the Sea Rescue. Technically, it was May 26, 2008 but since it was a holiday we've decided to celebrate Ana's anniversary (get it?) on Memorial Day each year. It was quite a day. We drove up to Indiana County, spent a few hours, plopped […]
OUTcomes: Pittsburgh’s Big Queer Rally
Yesterday was a complete blur for me. One moment, I'm sipping coffee with Adam waiting for anyone show up at the rally site and then next I'm sipping tea with Adam waiting for anyone to show up at the post-rally dinner site. In between, about 125 assorted folks showed up, set up and paid attention […]
Milk opens in Pittsburgh
I stole this picture from the City Paper website where Harry Kloman reviews Milk. The movie opens this weekend in Pittsburgh. Debate raged hotly at the recent LGBT Blogging Summit about the effectiveness of boycotting Cinemark theaters. Some cities are staging protests and candlelight vigils. Others are working with the Sundance Film Festival to address […]
Post Summit Summit
Well, I couldn't resist as we had to crawl back through the mountains to Pennsylvania in the dark. Brrrrr. However, we are safely home and have rounded up all the critters from their various “band camps” much to their delight. The boys are studiously not talking to us and Ana is sleeping off her weekend. The […]
