Skeet has asked me if Politics, Religion and Sex can be discussed at the party, and I've assured him that in a liberal household there are no taboo
subjects, although in expressing disagreement we generally try to avoid resorting to personal insults or fisticuffs [whatever those are].
This does not mean we are devoid of Family Values, however. Nomads who intend to ride nekkid on their motorsickles will be restricted to the back
patio.

'Dykes on Bikes' wins trademark
Agency had denied application
SAN FRANCISCO (AP)
"A San Francisco lesbian motorcycle group has successfully trademarked the name "Dykes on Bikes" after proving the gay community does not find it
derogatory.
The U.S. Patent and Trademark office had denied the San Francisco group's applications for a federal trademark.
But the office reversed itself after being convinced the once-offensive term "dyke" has now become associated with gay pride.
The motorcycle club was founded nearly 30 years ago and became famous for leading San Francisco's annual gay pride parade.
Vick Germany, president of the San Francisco Women's Motorcycle Contingent, also known as Dykes on Bikes, said the decision was a huge victory."

Boy How Day, I sure am looking forward to meeting Y'all manana! I have been happily home-bound lost in the grandkids and my art since last Nov., man
the time flies when your having fun. Finally going to La Paz for the first time in how long, can't believe it, so be it.
Lee, You are one of the principal reasons I visit this board, your words have delighted me many times. Yep, love your sence of humor and humanity. I
so look forward to finally meeting you!
Skeet, My father adored you. I do truly look forward to shaking your hand.
Jesse, I for one hope you bring the ceviche.
Comtin, are you this calm in real life? We shall soon see.
Grover, I am sure your good spirit will be warmly welcomed, at least by me.
Hasta entonces, Sara

Ceviche? Great!
Thanks for the kind words, Sara. I chatted with your dad several times at Leree's in San Ignacio in the good-old-bad-road days, and look forward to
meeting his daughter. Besides that, I intend to nag you into at least considering wthe possibility of writing and illustrating a book--if your art is
as interesting as your prose, that would be worth doing.
Time? Wish you hadn't asked that, Wiley. I was thinking around four or five but it's still pretty warm then, so maybe a little later would be better?
On the other hand, we'll have cool stuff to drink [with booze as well as without, and that always helps alleviate the temp.
So let's say anytime after around about four or five, more or less, give or take a half hour or so?

Sorry Bruce the only excess was the good time, good food, good company. we all agreed its amazing that so many could meet over the internet and be so
compatible in real time. If you notice the stainless pan by the ice chest in the picture of Jesse & Skeet that was the cevice that Jesse brought,
it was to die for, I will guarantee you that non of you have ever tasted cevice that good.

It was an interesting experience to meet everyone in the flesh, putting faces to the words I have learned to identify people with, I was not
disappointed; it is amazing how our writings project our persona, everyone being as I had imagined from the picture they had painted of themselves
with their comments on the board.
Food and drink were abundant and delicious.
Ah, but for me the high point of the evening was meeting La Lera, herself. Wow, how can such a tiny person have such a giant presence? The respect
that I had formed for her reading her thoughts and comments over the last couple of years has been doubled by the meeting of her. Yep, I have no doubt
that she is a special soul, one who's quite being solicits respect without asking for it.
Her home is magical, a giant old romantic Baja courtyard in the back, with towering Mango and Almendra trees giving one the sense of times gone by.
The kind of place that could inspire a life time lost in projects without even having to go out those big white steel gates. Certainly a place where
you would imagine a writer such as Lera to live. Just classic, that?s all.
Sure am glad I went.

Definitely the words of a writer yourself, Eli.
I can see and feel the couryard through your words.
