Varla Jean Merman will be in Silverlake in January from the 6th to the 15th!!!!

We are so having an outing.

Hmmm, is this the second time in as many months that I get to read an articulate, persuasive, logical and considered federal court decision, issued after a full evidenciary trial, that completely demolishes the government's discriminatory policies towards gays and lesbians? This time, about Don't Ask Don't Tell?

Oh, in case you hadn't heard, a federal district court judge in Riverside County has ruled Don't Ask Don't Tell unconstitutional, and has ordered the army to stop enforcing it. Turns out DADT violates Americans' free speech rights and due process rights, and is a detriment to, rather than serves, any government interest in military preparedness and military unit cohesion. Whoulda thunk?

Was this barely a month or two after that other federal district court judge in California demolished the proposition of banning gay marriage?

It's wonderful to read the decisions in these cases - intelligent analysis of trial proceedings with all available witnesses and evidence considered, the law carefully and consistently applied, and justice plainly served. On the other hand, though - the decades of time, the vast amounts of energy and money expended on litigation and trials - all for results that are of the commonest common sense of human D'UH.

I know it's wrong to put this announcement in this thread because Liberace was famously heterosexual, but if you ever wanted to see his museum, you better do it soon.

In all seriousness though, if you have not been, I highly recommend it.

It's *closing*?????? OH, NOOOO!!!!

I'm glad I did get to see it since I don't think I'll be able to hit Vegas by Oct 17. Anybody in the area, do go see it. Astonishing. Wonderful. His cars, his pianos, his dishes, some of his costumes... wonderful things. Even some of his jewelry.

Aw man... I love some of the jackets he wore.

Maybe they'll be for sale now, and you can add to your collection.

Liberace. She was fabulous.
