Re: Susanne Bartsch / David Barton Toy Party?
Hi Judy! David Barton Gym and Susanne are not holding their annual Toy Party this year. "The Toy Party" this Friday is another big annual toy drive at Chelsea Piers that Johnny has spun at for the past few years and will be spinning again on Friday 12/2. It is very popular and I believe already sold out (it sells out every year) here is the invite for reference ...much love to you Judy

I happen to have some video footage from Mothers that I would like to share here. One particular video shows a dear departed friend that I am sure everyone remembers. How does one go about doing this?

Re: 9/11/01 - The village signpost - please check in here
I finally got to go home last night- through 2 checkpoints, and to my apartment, which has power and water, but no phone service (thus no internet, either). Two blocks below me on Broadway has been evacuated and has no power, water, gas, or phones. And the stench... but I am grateful for so many things, and I am sure many feel the same way. Since I am essential personnel, we were on the ready for the 1000s of wounded that never arrived. Our Urgent Care Center was set up like a MASH unit, and...

Yes, I am Pushpindra's younger brother. So it IS the famous Michael Ford. In my country you are a legend. Young boys grow up hearing tales of your talents. They cannot wait until the day they come to America and drive you home from a party.

Re: Straight To Hell (Sex Stories)
It was Thanksgiving nite 1993 and Faux Pas and I had just had a scrumptious meal at my friend Sara's place in Grammercy Park. I was full of fabulous food, fine wine, and fierce herb. What more could a single twentysomething fella want in New York City at midnite? What? Sex you say? Why yes in deed, don't mind if I do. The nite was that kind of cold that was actually refreshing from being in a pot filled apartment for several hours. The air had that healthy quality, that made you enjoy each...

I keep hearing from the butch queens(I only say that cause these are the miserable old queens) that I look like Barbra Striesand. Which is a compliment I guess, but I have to say I dont really care for her and I would prefer to look like someone younger! I have been told for the past few years I look very much like Julliette Lewis, I prefer her than Babs!

thoughtfully put Stacy Im going to add that politically it might be easier to define "transgendered behavior", as opposed to a "transgendered" group of people. Everyone has a different personal identity, and I don't think its necessary to catagorize - especially for legal reasons. "Thou shalt not discriminate on the basis of varied gender expression." Now there's a law for ya! Afterall, its the expressing of gender variation that "invites" trouble from the ignorant, small-minded and wicked.

Dear Motherboard Readers, Here is my most recent report from PPtown. The tourists have all gone home and it is cool, breezy and sunny. The streets are inhabited mostly by locals and townies and a small smattering of day trippers. this is the time of year to be here. No crowds, no screaming babies and families with strollers in your way at every turn. No circute party fags filling your ear with their constant drivel.Even the divine drag queens have pulled up their wig stands and headed home.
