I had a few more email exchanges with the charming woman who wrote to me last night. Apparently, she had a lot riding on human beings being the only species engaging in same sex behavior. A pointless arguments, since no other species reads the Bible, files taxes or wears clothing habitually, but there you . . . → Read More: Yet more interactions with the Illiterati

Well, I rarely get antigay stuff, but when I do, it is so unbelievably lame as to make one doubt the existence of intelligent terrestrial life. So, upon returning from a brief trip tonight, I found the following scintillating epistle in my inbox. Egad, someone REALLY needs some remedial grammar and spelling lessons, to . . . → Read More: Okay, so maybe Darwin made a few oversights…

There are a few local productions I had been meaning to catch, so last night I went to Directors Circle to catch Run For Your Wife, which was a British farce. Lots of miscommunication, door slamming sort of thing. I knew a few people in the cast, and it was great fun. I cam . . . → Read More: Theatre fun

I had a call yesterday from Gerry Weiss of the Erie Times News, who wanted a comment for an article on PBS censoring the episode of Postcards from Buster that included 2 lesbian couples. You can read the article here. I seem to be done with a fair amount of gay-related meetings for the . . . → Read More: Meetings done with and local article

Isn’t it amusing how many references to ‘freedom’ there were in Bush’s 2nd inaugural speech, and how quickly it is seen that is a bunch of hollow rhetoric and lies? The first act of the new Education Secretary is to threaten PBS over a cartoon that peripherally included 2 lesbian couples. You can read . . . → Read More: Those darn queer cartoons

A scary moment. I was doing some tidying and inadvertently deleted the Movable Type database. I was sort of bummed about losing this weblog, until I recalled that I also lost the Erie Gay News Pride/History Photo Blog. Ack! Photos from a 10 year period would have been a real pain to recreate. Fortunately, . . . → Read More: Weblog lost and found

Every once in a while, I get a call via the hotline or some other form of contact which reminds me why I do this. Someone called asking if I know about the Gay Center in Kentucky. I responded that we didn’t really have any contact with Kentucky as it was rather far from . . . → Read More: The benefits of being Gay Central

I had forgotten about this, but I passed along to Debbie at the Zoo the recent blog entry about her. She reminded me of an exchange we had when I went to her wedding a year and a half ago.
Remember I went over to get you to try to catch the garter. You . . . → Read More: A further amusing remark from Debbie

A few days ago, I was talking with my friend Debbie from the Zoo. In addition to being a client at work, we are also friends. I was trying to login as a user, and wanted to know the password. She said: “I’ll give you a clue; it’s the name of my ex-husband.” When . . . → Read More: Amusing remark from a client

A few days ago, I wondered if I could add a routine for folks to include comments to post on article pages at the Erie Gay News website. I did finally get it right, but I discovered I had made it TOO easy. I was getting a fair number of spam postings that were . . . → Read More: Comments active for posting and spam hopefully spoiled
