It's National Coming Out Day tomorrow.
Every Oct. 11, thousands of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people and allies celebrate National Coming Out Day. They hold workshops, speak-outs, rallies and other kinds of events all aimed at showing the public that GLBT people are everywhere.

From the Eurythmics' fourth album, 1984 (For the Love of Big Brother), the soundtrack for the film Nineteen Eighty-Four:
Sexcrime (Nineteen Eighty-Four)
Can I take this for granted
With your eyes over me?
In this place
This wintery home
I know there's always someone inSexcrime
Sexcrime
Nineteen eighty fourAnd so I face the wall
Turn my back against it all
How I wish I'd been unborn
Wish I was unliving hereSexcrime
Sexcrime
Nineteen eighty fourI'll pull the bricks down
One by one
Leave a big hole in the wall
Just where you are looking in
And that's it. I'm going to bed.
Considered, and rejected, including the animated gif in the Greeting. This thing takes long enough to load on a dialup as it is.
More information about the Eurythmics album is available at eurythmics.musicdot.com.
Finally, I may have heard an unfavorable review of certain Hello, Kitty merchandise recently, but am maintaining the polite fiction that I didn't.
And this time I mean it, I'm going to bed.
1984 is a great album. I can listen to "Julia" all day. Movie was good, too.
Thanks for bringing that up. I have to dig up my tape of it and enlighten my coworkers.
Hm. Last time I was out at Toys in Babeland, they had that particular bit of merchandise, too.
Gotta love creating demand by furnishing the aura of exclusivity.
sciatica, de nada. I love that album. And I envy your tape; my only copy is on that vinyl stuff.
VASpider, there may have been words comparing the effects of the thing to sitting on a bus, but details escape me. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.
Similarly, I've forgotten Hanne's Travel Tips about taking batteries out of things before going through airport security.
Um....I'm really nervous cause well...it's always scary...and I.....I'm not sure I should....but ok I think I will.......I'm coming out.
Muhahahahaha
What, as a Southerner who doesn't like greens?
We know, hon. We love you despite the fact that you're an abomination in the eyes of man and God.
The Intervention is scheduled for next week, by the way.
Okra will be served.
I have to go throw up now at the thought of greens and okra. Be back in a little while.
Michelle, fine. Mayo on white bread sammiches will be served.
That's a step in the right direction, anyway.
