Bi And Trans History Month Website Launches With Daily Icon Videos Featured
The Website for resources and information for national GLBT History Month is a fun resource featuring an Icon Video for every day of the month. Today’s Icon Video highlights the impact of Alvin Ailey, Jr., an influential choreographer who founded the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater in New York, and whose choreographic masterpiece Revelations is believed to be the best-known and most often seen modern dance performance.

The Icon Videos will be updated daily, and will feature such noted gay, lesbian, bi and trans icons as k.d. Lang, Gus Van Sant, and B.D. Wong. Check it out.

I have listed the Videos and the dates they will be highlighted but you can view them from the site anytime:

Speaking of queer entertainment...

  
Birds of a feather

I admit I have not been a Survivor fan in the past but then our family does not often know one of the players.  You can have two guesses to figure out who it is and it is not me.  Our household is watching this season and will quit once Shambo as she likes to call herself for her snazzy head apparel is ousted (if she is).  Yes, I am rooting for the lesbian contestant and Seattle area Shambo motorcycle riding comrade!  She can't fish if you have been watching but she can float!  I just can't help myself and maybe you will join in too!
