Tonight, Ledcat and I sipped coffee and ooh la la'd with none other than Ms. Monongahela, Ms. Chief Editor. We reconnoitered at a local coffeehouse. I can't tell you which one because, you see, they have eyes everywhere. Even in the vegan rice krispie treats (i missed the marshmallows). It is always a fun time […]
Today's PG gave me the heads up on a new social networking phenomenon, GLEE – Gay, Lesbian & Everyone Else. I have a little MySpace page which I rarely use. I also have a Facebook page that has proven more useful in reconnecting with old friends and a lot easier to use. Then, there is […]
Saturday night, Ledcat and I caught a local performance of The Vagina Monologues at the City Theater. It was bloggers night. I snatched two tickets as soon as word hit the Internet.

OUTrageous Bingo is debuting at its new Oakland home of Rodef Shalom. 7 PM Saturday. Be there or be (an […]
From the Post-Gazette we learn: The former Mellon Financial Corp. was recognized by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation, a gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender civil rights organization, as one of the “Best Places to Work for GLBT Equality.” Last year, Mellon merged with the Bank of New York, which did not make the list (http://www.hrc.org/issues/best_places_to_work_2008.asp).

Earlier today, someone apparently hacked into the website of the Steel City Stonewall Democrats and sent a very strange rumor out that a local LGBTQ businessowner is a rightwing Republican along with the thinly veiled suggestion that patronizing those businesses would fill the coffers of George Bush. Something like that. It took me about two minutes […]
