PARADE/FESTIVAL

Gay Pride

After a couple years of divide and fail, Seattle is cramming its butt- load of gay pride into one supergay day. Things begin at 11:00 a.m. with the Pride Parade: two and a half hours of Dykes on Bikes, shirtless bartenders on flatbed trucks, and award-winning floats. That afternoon brings Seattle PrideFest, four and a half hours of live music, DJs, beer gardens, and wandering gay herds at Seattle Center. Last year, both events were incredibly fun. Here's hoping for a repeat. (Parade starts at 11 am at Fourth Ave and Union St and proceeds down Fourth Ave to Denny Way. PrideFest runs from 1:30–6 pm at Seattle Center. Both events are free.)

Money pennies....

Let's Party.

...day after day we create the "in"


....Predictable patterns of non redundant frequencies and zones of changing gaurds in metros and banks and sheltered gazeebos rife with wanton banter and baulderdash....

Flavored whims and succulent stereophonics...

Tap dancing through swinging myriads of herbal delights.....

Carnivals.... costumed revaries and occillating tendrils of exuberance....

Blazing Saddle Masters of Constrikted conifers....

alien space bunnies with furry happiness and JOYFULL LAUGHTER>


ha ha sharahd... sharahd UR!

Alas, the parade was going well until the Mr. Poe float snuck in from a sidestreet.

Faithfully recreating the battle between Civil War naval battle between the Monitor and the Merrimack, Mr. Poe's float sent dozens of live, explosive cannon balls into the parade audience.

Authorities are still assessing the carnage.

Aw, man, I'm missing the herds.

What quantity of substances is necessary before a gay herd moos in sync?

My float was so awesome. I've never seen so many people running for their lives.
