The introductory scenes of General Hospitals second LGBT character seem to have annoyed some of the gays. Hmmm. I’m pretty sure there’s simply no way a character could be introduced that would make everyone happy – OH WAIT – that’s how soap opera characters ALWAYS work when they first come on screen. So Felix Dubois […]
Journalist Anderson Cooper confirms that he is gay in a thoughtful letter to blogger Andrew Sullivan. I’ve also been reminded recently that while as a society we are moving toward greater inclusion and equality for all people, the tide of history only advances when people make themselves fully visible. There continue to be far too […]
When I asked Hugh McGough to sit down with me and talk about his campaign, I was admittedly most interested in the significance of electing Pittsburgh's second openly gay official (third in Allegheny County). I was unprepared for a thorough schooling in the ways of the magisteria, the judicial politics of the East End and a […]
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 […]
Wow. All the comments, FB messages and email … the love, people, the love. 🙂 Yes, I get discouraged and default to blogging about celebrity conception. And, yes, perhaps that is my little cry for help. Thanks for all the support. I promise not to quit in a blaze of glory. LOL. Of course, I […]
That title reflects exactly how creative I feel this morning. I had weird dreams all night in which I was a character in the soap opera, The Young & The Restless only the other characters included a ghost, Jim from Taxi and Freddie Prinze, Sr. I kept asking everyone to marry me (they all wore red pullover […]
Hey everybody! Something involving a c-file got all screwed up and our blog has been down for a few days. However, thanks to my trusty bloghost Geoff at Radio Left, things are shipshape again. Today's Post-Gazette included an AP story on the current gay storyline on soap opera, As The World Turns, featuring a young gay […]
Yesterday, I received word that a long-time friend had passed away early in the morning. I was stunned because I hadn't realized that he was that critically ill. I was horrified because I had let so much of our contact lapse over the past few years. As the day progressed, I was anguished as an […]
Two hour premiere tonight. Found it to be engaging, more reminiscent of Picket Fences than Joan of Arcadia. With a salty dash of Desperate Housewives tossed in or perhaps it was the similar background music? Either way, the gay characters are soooo not the biggest issue for the American Family Association. This show has several flavors […]
For the holidays, we are asking you to adopt a community cat caretaker to thank them for their year round work. Mike M. manages a colony of cats on the Northside and has been doing so for over 10 years. Mike is the rare person who opens his literal home to community cats – he […]
