As most of you know I spend a good deal of time surfing the web looking for relevant content to bring to you as well as receiving lots of data and leads from readers via comment or email. Well in the last couple of days I visited some old friends that I have not clicked on for a while. In my reading of posts and comments, I discovered some new faces in the blogosphere as well as some sites and articles that should be of interest to you. One of the new faces I mentioned yesterday is Undress Me Gently written by a Filipino immigrant to California. He writes both in English and his native tongue beautifully. He is a nurse and is just beginning his adventures in America. His excitement about his adventures and the candor with which he writes is refreshing, reminding me of some of the things we who have been here all our lives take for granted. Surf on over to pay him a visit and welcome him to our country.
While visiting Debriefing The Boys I was reading the comments on one of his posts from a newcomer to the blogosphere named Alex. Alex is a medical engineering student in Mexico City whose blog, Love In Mexico City, is likewise a refreshing read. Each post is written in English and Spanish which are only two of the four languages he is fluent in. His writing covers many topics to include his amorous adventures with his boyfriend and rants about things that disturb him. His post, Stop The Hate / Paren El Odio, was especially good and included a video showing a man in (I presume) Mexico City giving away Abrazo Gratis (Free Hugs). His style is witty and revealing of his willingness to tell his story. Give him a visit, say hello, and pass along some encouragement to keep writing.
The Advocate's online edition posted a story in their Gen Q section on The Trevor Project reprinting letters written to Trevor and his responses. For the past 10 years, The Trevor Project has been an outreach to Gay and questioning youth that has saved many lives through their hot line 866-4-U-TREVOR. If you or a friend have questions or need to talk to someone about anything do not hesitate to call the hot line which operates 24/7/365. Their work is invaluable to our community and our most precious resource, our youth.
In the March 26 edition of The Detroit News, columnist Deb Price profiled two of the Riders on this years Equality Ride 2007, Vince Cervantes and Vince Pancucci, who met at a Christian college in California. They survived exorcisms and other treatments to find each other and fall in love. Deb's article can be read here, in which she details their journey. Their's is a classic love story in which they meet, fall in love and join together under California's Domestic Partnership law. Only after the ceremony when they felt married in God's eyes did they become intimate with each other. They then joined the other 50 Riders for this year's Equality Ride. For more on this year's ride see the Soulforce website.
Don't forget, those of you who are in the Dallas area, tomorrow night is when HomoRevolution Tour 2007 will be stopping at The Brick in Oaklawn. Deadlee, Qboy and the rest of the artists will welcome your support and provide you with an excellent evening's entertainment. Come on out and see them tomorrow night at 8 at The Brick.
I enjoyed my visits with my old friends and meeting the new faces I discovered in my surfing. I hope you pay them a visit and show them some of the love you have shown to me here. So until next time as always, Enjoy!
