I'll admit it

1.I really don't want to go to the Pride Parade this year
2.In fact I'm probably not.
3.I have been to a parade every year for over 26 years.
4.To support, to cheer, to be there. To show our pride.
5.I have walked it, and volunteered.
6.I've been wheel monitor for 5-6 years in a row, which actually is more fun. You see most of the contingents at the starting line, getting set up and ready. Which cuts the 3+ hour parade into minutes (well not really).
7.When walking in the parade, you cut the time down to 45 minutes
8.When most of my friends have seen it for the first time, most say it was good, but they probably would not see it again. Too long.
9.I think the parade is great. And I know we should be there to support. But it's just too long (is this getting repetitive?) . And the parking! I know. Take BART.
10.I'd rather go to Pink Saturday. And then hang out at the Civic Center after the parade.
11.You know. I have said this every year. And end up going. For at least part of it.... But then again, we shall see.

Rick, come work in the ACLC beverage booth with us! There's plenty of shade, and lots of pretty men to look at.

I can't tell you how much I would love to see a REAL gay pride parade... But if you have seen in 26 time? Hmmmm.... Maybe the part of it deal? Is there a cool place to hang out on the route and have cocktails?
