Shouldn't that be a June Fonda Workout?
I watched a bit of NORTH BY NORTHWEST on TCM last night. My TOD: What is everyone's favorite movie reveal or revelation?I have a couple including:Cary Grant finding out the identity of the ONI agent and that his actions have issued a death warrant for said agent in NBN.The moment when we Raymond's control is revealed in THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE.

Oh, look! I'm a frenzy.

I don't need to stand on 5th Avenue and 16th Street to watch this one. I'll see my friend at PrideFest, come home, work on the two presentations and take a nap (I woke up at 5am). We will be seeing a friend tonight. He is taking classes at HB and there is a "singing performance"I think nearly the first 20 years of my life in New York were spent marching in the parade with the NYC Gay Men's Chorus. My memories are the great support from the crowds, the excitement of being in the event, and the claustrophobia on Christopher Street at the end. I also remember standing in the sun waiting for the Chorus or the cabaret group I worked with to sing at the rally after the parade. I given my time and energy and now I don't mind passing up the event.Exactly. I watched or walked for almost 20 of the 30 years I've been here. I'll let the others take over.

I'll let the others take over.I don't know how it is in New York, but in my little corner of the globe; they don't want gays my age to participate in Pride at all. The old queens seem to be an embarrassment to the young, proud, openly gay male. They think of us as the silly old men who hid in our closets afraid to tell the world who we were. They seem to forget that we were also the old queens who fought the police harrassment and the college-jock gaybashers; just for the right to have a beer with our own, in the privacy of a quiet bar.I stopped attending Seattle and Tacoma Pride years ago.
