When Seattlest was just a wee lesbian growing up in a small southern town, we did what we reckon other wee small-town lesbians did: we listened to a lot of k.d. lang and the Indigo Girls. We went on long road trips across the whole state with the windows down, our other closeted friends with us, singing "Galileo" at the top of our lungs. Ah, those good ol' days of closeted small-town life. It's......

This decision will surely solve the problem of it being too large - We predict dueling Prides for 2006. There will be the official Seattle Center version which will draw a couple thousand squares, heteros and family-types and then there will be......
