London Pride Parade

29 July 2007

Trying to get organized in the parking lot of the Central Spa (which used to be Club London) on York St.

	Can you believe it! The “The Military” in a Gay Pride Parade?
On the move and 5 minutes early. I think somebody was using the wrong clock. You know, there is a difference between gay and straight time. 2:00 o'clock straight time is 2:00 o'clock by the clock. 2:00 o'clock gay time is 2:00 o'clock by the clock OR as soon thereafter that you feel you look good enough you can pull yourself away from the mirror. The parade route from the parking lot was Lyle Street to Dundas Street (just three blocks from the Western Fair Grounds). Left on Dundas and ALL the way downtown to left on Ridout Street and over to the John Labbatt Centre on King Street.
			If he’s not gay, I’ll eat his shirt.
	IT IS NOW OFFICIALLY A PRIDE PARADE! The standing joke in Ottawa was that if there were no protesters, then it wasn’t an “Official” Pride Parade.
Oh-la-la!
