Posted on September 2, 2010 by Jim Reeves

The California 3rd Appellate District Court dismissed the appeal by the Pacific Justice Institute, which tried to force Governor Schwarzenegger and Attorney General Brown to defend Proposition 8 before the Federal Appellate Court for the 9th District.  Their case was “summarily denied”.   Now we wait and see if the 9th Court decides if there is anyone with legal standing to file the appeal to the Federal Court’s finding that Proposition 8 is unconstitutional.

BEAR ATTACK!

Posted on August 30, 2010 by A.J. McNasty

Like a gay bear, not a grizzly.

I was looking up gay clubs nearby and, of course, they’re all in fresno,  One called “The Den” caught my eye and i was informed it is a “bear bar.”  This is something I have never seen before but my imagination is running wild.  One of these nights i think I will have to see this “Den” I’ve heard of.  Life is all about new experiences, and I for one HAVE to see what this scene is about.

In fact, before the end of the year i want to see as many different scenes as possible.  I think it’s time for me to learn about my fellow brothers and sisters.  Of course I will be writing all about my new adventures, so i will be accepting suggestions.  Lets see where this road takes us people.
