Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

ME! Between the slut train and the muppet exhibit, Seattle has my vote.

Seattle has my vote too.
And Juliana, I hope you won't take my description of Port Townsend as offensive, especially since I used the same term for my own town.

(OK, TECHNICALLY it's not called the SLUT. It's the South Lake Union Streetcar, I think. But it's more FUN to call it the SLUT.)
And I totally think we should have it in Seattle, of course!! It's awesome here!

So, who wants to come to Seattle and Ride the SLUT?
I saw an ad, and assumed it was fake.
(OK, TECHNICALLY it's not called the SLUT. It's the South Lake Union Streetcar, I think.
Sadness.
But it's more FUN to call it the SLUT.)
Well, yeah.
The more I read, the more I like the Seattle idea.

Meara, if it's called a streetcar now, that is only their attempt to change the acronym because, yes, they did manage to launch the service as a SLUT.
And the damage is done. It'll always be known as the SLUT so their attempts to change it are doubly feeble. Then again that sounds like our city council to a tee.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
And the damage is done. It'll always be known as the SLUT so their attempts to change it are doubly feeble.
I am reminded Tesco's decision to rename Spotted Dick "Spotted Richard".
I mean, yes, okay, dick, ho ho - but it's so totally well-known that mostly you don't think "Penis! Penis! Ho ho ho!" ...until you find yourself staring at "Spotted Richard", think "WTF???" and then make a mental translation, and then think "OMGWTFSPOTTEDPENIS!"
As successful renaming ventures go, it's akin to Dick Van Dyke deciding to change his name to Richard Van WomanWithComfortableShoes.
...All of which is a verbose way of saying that I'd love to ride the SLUT in Seattle.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Oh, heck no. I've not even been there, I just think it's hilarious that he was mayor.
Oh, hey. We were going to do a poll or somesuch, right? I'll get to that today.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Riding the SLUT? Muppet exhibit at the Sci Fi museum? I am *so* down with Seattle. Plus, the only other time I've been it was a freaky 97 degree day and Plei and Jilli and I spent the day moving as quickly as possible between air-conditioned shops, then had ice cream w/ my friend Judy. Which was a lovely day, but I'd like to go back.
I also adore Portland.
And, hey, Fay - I've got a friend in the US foreign service whose next post is Thailand... I just might have to see if I could swing a trip. When's a good time to visit, keeping in mind that I do pretty well with humid heat?
