Oops. That was meant for Kate only. Please forgive my not changing the "to" address. -----Original Message----- From: mailing-list-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mailing-list-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Wm. R. Ulman Sent: Wednesday, January 12, 2005 10:43 PM To: mailing-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: IML: Sweet William's rant Thanks Kate for the kind words. No one has called me "Sweet William" in a long time. I would love to live in the country, but am fearful I would end up strung up in a tree by some locals who may not be as enlightened as yourself. That may be to much conditioning from TV., and movies, but most gay men I have known who live outside large cities are pretty closeted. That ain't me! I mean, I don't go swishing through town, but if someone asks, I'll tell 'em. I mean, my license plates alone, which are such a tongue in cheek statement: FIT4AQN. Same reason I will most likely never see Idaho. Usually I'm amazed at how many people never just KNOW I'm gay. I actually like the drive along hwy 2 thru Sultan, Goldbar, and Index. Index had a huge gay campground resort for years. I understand the locals in town were very grateful for all the monies brought in by all the campers. About 5-10 years ago, I think it was state land, leased at like $1.00 a year, the lease was lost, and a fund drive was done, and several hundred thousand dollars was raised to buy land about an hour north. I'm not sure where, I never went to either one. Picture a campground with chandeliers, and you get a pretty good idea of what it is probably like. I would, however, love to meet you sometime. Are you planning on coming down on Saturday for our first "Meet" in Normandy Park? Hope so.
