The old woman Slow with Pretty
Well, well, well. My two favorite lesbians got all gussied up for a Gala which I guess should be spelled Gay-la.
They were celebrating the 20th Anniversary of some subversive group called the South Carolina Gay and Lesbian Business Guild which they helped to get started and have remained active in for two decades. Of all the political activist opportunities in the world, these two radicals chose a Business Guild to devote their lives to. Boring. Super boring. Ever hear of a Business Guild that had a Parade?? My point exactly.
Oh, well. To each her own. The Red Man sends out Paw Snaps and Twirls to ANY group that survives for 20 years…they must be doing something right. Longevity = success.
Get me outta here Percy. Think I’ll try to find my Will and Grace dvds and watch an episode or two in honor of the gays today.
Red's Rants and Raves 
Well Slow and Pretty, i’ve never managed to stay affiliated to any group for that long so hats off to you. Have always gone on the marches though and celebrated all the rightings of wrongs we’ve had along the way. Getting married next month in France to celebrate the next crumbling wall 😉 Keep tooting for us all Red Man 😀

Paw Snaps and Twirls to you from The Red Man tonight!! Travel safe.

Woot, woot!!! Your peeps are a pair of lovely lesbians when they get dolled up! Ma and I love, love that they have been together as partners in community as well as love. Hope they enjoyed their night out. And your Poppy hopes you snagged a box of Liver Snaps to crunch on while watching reruns. 😀

Thank you so much for the kind words – they do clean up fairly well but luckily we don’t have to put up with it very often!! Watching the old woman Slow try to put on makeup is an endurance contest. Oh yes, Miss Poppy, The Red Man always has a snack or two when he watches his favorite Will and Grace episodes…
Hugs and cyberspace kisses to our friends in Pennsylvania and to all a good night!

Ma says they look glamorous, but feels Slow’s makeup ordeal. The last time she stuck herself in the eye with a mascara wand (Thanksgiving 2012) she sworn never to put another thing on her face other than lip gloss. So far she’s holding to it! 😀
Poppy
Sheila, you both looked beautiful!!! I really hope you enjoyed the evening out together.

Miss Poppy have you ever seen an almost blind old woman putting on makeup?? Don’t bother. It’s too painful.
But, yes, we had a wonderful evening together and lots of chatting with old friends – and I do mean Old. 🙂

Three cheers for Pretty and Slow, who look absolutely stunning for the Gay-la! Living so close to New Orleans, my human mommy loves and good parade, and she shares your sadness that the guild does not have a parade. Maybe Pretty and Slow could put you in charge of that for next year’s celebration!

Oh yes Miss Harper Lee, our good neighbors in NOLA love a good parade and will have one at the drop of a hat!! Our favorite part of Mardi Gras parades is the BEADS – we love the BEADS!!!! Maybe we can introduce the Parad Concept to the Guild. 🙂

Yes, that is one subversive looking couple…a danger to society. I hope Sheriff Red Man is keeping an eye on the whole situation. Didn’t Eric Clapton already write a song about this…something like – Gay-La…da, da, da, da, da etc., etc. ? Yes…a beautiful couple.

Thank yew very much – we are quite sure Eric Clapton has written an appropriate song about this situation. He wrote appropriate songs for most situations! So glad you recognized the subversive nature of the furtive glances captured in these pictures. You can see these two are up to no good. 🙂

Sounds ominous…is your Red Man in trouble?

Stumbling around in the dark recesses of my mind…yeah, I would say he’s in trouble. That’s not even a place I care to go often. He’s a survivor though, and it’s easier to let him have a post now and again than it is to try and control him.

Yeah, let him loose. Never know when he’ll randomly have a good opinion. 🙂
