This past week in our local paper was an article about a proposal to build a new ultra modern gym in a former retail site here in Danbury. One of the first things that popped into my mind was bis, gays and lesbians in the area must be thinking “ah a new hunting ground”. This [...]

According to media reports in Anchorage, Alaska on Friday a gay pride float which was going to be used in a Fourth Of July parade was set on fire and not only destroyed the float but also a building. It took 10 days to build the gay pride float. The plan is to make a statement by rebuilding [...]

Okay full disclosure … I went kicking and screaming into the 21st Century when finally buying my first computer five years ago after being downsized by CBS Broadcasting mostly, a) to keep in touch with cousins via email. b) not to lose all the computer knowledge I gained when working at CBS (you too will [...]

I don’t know if this can be classified as a first or will become precedent setting, but the Castleford Tigers rugby team has been fined over anti-gay harassing remarks from fans at a rugby game against out rugby player Gareth Thomas.

Outrageous. Horrid. Unconscionable. These are some of the words being used to describe the refereeing in the USA-Slovenia match. But perhaps even worse than the calls themselves is the fact that US soccer fans were truly robbed of a watershed moment for the sport.
