Hey everyone,

I have posted about this on the Chez Tremblay board, but in case you didn't know, I am going to have a booth at the big humongous gay pride festival, Heritage of Pride, in New York City next Sunday, June 25th. I will be selling Brokeback-related t-shirts from my online t-shirt shop that I opened a few months ago.

Keeping with my mission, I will be donating any profits I receive from the sale of my shirts to the Matthew Shepard Foundation, since part of my response to the movie is a desire to end all homophobia and hate crimes. (No matter where you stand on the tire-iron debate, a murderous hate crime was the cause of Ennis' internalized homophobia, and that kept them from having the life together that they deserved.)

So come on down and see me! I'd love to meet any brokies I haven't met yet, and I'll be there as long as it takes to sell out my inventory. I am going to be the booth between--get this--the ACLU and BRAVO networks! I love that location and I hope to make a lot of new friends.

Hope to see you there!

Okay, I'll try to get there!  But where will it be?  ???

Good question Meryl.

The booth itself will be on Hudson St near Leroy, about 4 blocks south of the Cowgirl I think. It's on the west side of the street, between the ACLU booth and the BRAVO networks booth. The festival starts at 11 am and goes till 10 PM! I hope I sell out of shirts quicker than later.

I could really use some coordinated efforts from people like you and Juan and Amy so that I get to take a little break every two or three hours and make like a sheep (i.e., pee!) Do you think we could arrange that? I know Juan is going to be marching with a team he plays on, and will call me on my celll when he's near by, but maybe we could set up something via PM.

I'll start that now.

David In Indy:
I sure wish I could be there for it. New York City is a long way from me, and unfortunately my vacation time is used up for this year.

I wish you all the luck in the world though, and I hope everyone has a lot of  fun!


Certainly I will be thinking about everyone there. It sounds like a blast! :)

Jenny -

I am on the other side of the country but I certainly hope all went well TODAY! 

Get some rest now.
