Well I thought I might do a weekend recap. Friday night I did the usual coffee gathering with Frisco Pride members, and was suprised to see six new members in attendance (the largest we've had in a long time). Later we did a salad at Cotton Patch Cafe and then headed home to watch Boys … Continue reading Back, flicks and friends
Today, I decided to play catch up with movies. We've had three movies from Netflix for over a month, and I decided that I need to watch at least a couple of them. I've already blogged about the first one I saw, The God Who Wasn't There. The other two movies were The Fluffer and … Continue reading Movie Mode

To my suprise … Continue reading Super X-Men

The Netflix guide gives the following summary about the film: From 1912 to 1920, a group of fiery young suffragettes led by Alice Paul (Hilary Swank) and Lucy … Continue reading Women’s Suffrage
Yesterday, Chris, Layton, Ian and myself went to see Transamerica. For those not in the know, it's a film about the journey of a male-to-female transgender named Bree (also Stanley, played by Felicity Huffman, of Desperate Housewives fame), in the final days of her transition, and her discovery that she has a son. The son, Toby … Continue reading Transamerica
Don't you hate it when you have an amazing two-and-a-half hour nap and then can't sleep when you are meant to. Chris and I just finished watching "Relax ... it's just sex" and I really enjoyed it. Here is the blurb from Netflix: Tara Ricotto (Jennifer Tilly) has a diverse group of friends -- gay, … Continue reading Not quite the first post you expect
