The Light At The End Of The Tunel !
BY
SISTER EVEREADY
Last issue, we commented that the Lord
giveth and here comes some rattle ass preacher
to ·take it away! This issue we are happy to say
the rattle assed preacher hath been taken away!
I would like to be able to say that the
good lord has moved in ··another·· mysterious way,
but fortunately that is not t.he case.
There is nothing mysterious about the
s udden dissappearance of one Mr. Weaver. First
our Police Department, City Council and San
Antonio Citizens as a whole, had the good sense
to ignore this man and give him no response
whμtsoever to his hatemongering, self- elevating
rantings .
Pressure from the Gay community directed to
the FCC and other agencies controlling the
broadcasting system didn't hurt anything either.
The finished results prove one point ... The
general citizenry of San Antonio is not as
gullible as fools such as Mr . Weaver might want
to think!

Well, the long hot days of summer are here
and the summer film releases have proved to be
evben hotter at the box office . Arnold
Schwarzeneggar and Jim Belushi star in the
action packed police film entitled 00Red Heat··.
Then you have the extremely funny film "Big
Business". Starring Bette Midler and Lily
Tomlin from Touchstone Pictures. It is one of
the best comedys that we have seen in a long
time and well worth the price of admission .
Touchstone has a second comedy hit that is a
surprise sleeper of the summer releases and
making big bucks at the box office. It is ''Who
Framed Roger Rabbit .. , starring Bob Hoskins and
his animated co- star Roger Rabbit, in an
extremely funny comedy spoof of the old
detective films that were so popular in the 30's
and 40's.
There is another very good comedy and the
sequel to the very funny .. Crocodile Dundee ...
CROCODILE DUNDEE IT is another comedy hit at the
box office . Then at the other end of the box
office charts, you have another sequel to a
sequel, etc . 00FRIDAY THE 13TH, PART VII 00
•
.. CROCODILE DUNDEE, II.. PG, Comedy, Paramount
Pictures, 110 Mins. Starring Paul Hogan and
Linda Kozloski. Directed by John Cornell.
An Aussie adventurer, Mike Dundee tangles
with international drug dealers in a more action
oriented sequel to the surprise box office hit
of 1986. Whi.le the film is less engaging than
the . first, Paul Hogan's appeal remains intact
and big bucks are to be made at the box off ice
and there is very good chance that we will see a
part III next year . In fact we should all have
the problems like those faced by the producers,
of such hit films as ··neverly Hills Cop .. and
00Crocodile Dundee·· and their sequels or how to
make a second and possibly third box office
block bus t e r .
Our favorite h ero from ""Down Under .. is
still in New York and still scaring the shit out
of the street punks with that big knife of
his and his ··out back.. way of dealing with
various problems that. confront him. I wi 11
·-.-.... _. ..... _ ............................. ii admit that the New York first part of the film
i and the drug czar and his bad guy mobsters are i the slow part of the film, but once we return to
i. Australia and Mick Dundee's beloved 000utback··
: the action and the comedy, more than save the
: film.

Well, once again, I've been caught with my
pants down. It. seems that I can't get away from
the training sessions, etc. long enough to get
out to catch all of you doing what you are
doing (even though I know you're doing them !)
I was able to pick-up on a few tidbits, and
they were good ones. First of all I would like
to mention a couple of things going on around
town. First of all, Doug Richardson .. Misi;
Kitty··, (Owner of The Crew), was hospitalized
this past week. I understand that he is there
for tests, and that is all we know at this
point. I want to extend best wishes for a
speedy recovery, and hope that all goes well for
him and U1at he is back in circulation real
soon!

To whom it may concern:
I am Carin Victoria Gleason. I am a woman.
Although I have always been female, I was born
a man. This has caused me many personal
problems through the years; trying to live up
top other's expectations of my life and my own
efforts of trying to live my image of a male
life have caused me many hardships. Mostly
though I have been unhappy .
And now as I have reached the point in my
life where I need t o be happy with myself,
happiness that I have found in my womanhood, why
must I suffer s o much unhappiness from the
people around me. If I choose to dress the way
I feel inside, If I choose to live the way I
feel inside, If I finally have the courage to
live as what I really am, why can I not recieve
support and congratulations from my friends and
family, or at least why can't they Just leave me
alone. Instead, I must suffer through threats,
scorn, and harrassment because I am differnt
from society's expectations.
Saddest of all, is that I am not really
di:f:ferenm"t, from society's norms . What I am
inside is the same, whether male or female, in
:fact, that that is good about me, is neither
gender. Love, concern, friendship, honesty,
generosity, in·legri ty, faith , intelligence,
wisdom, ambition, helpfullness, cooperation,
desire to do the best that I can do, all that I
value in myself, are the same values that
society values in itself. Even anger, when
controlled, can be of value .
All of these virtues are of the same value,
in the male as in the female. Maybe society's
norms dictate that one gender should have more
of one value than another, but what people would
persecute a man because he loves his children,
more than the woman who bore them ? What people
would scorn as woman who is· more wiser or
honest than a man?
All that I seek to do now, is to bring what
is inside of me out. By doing so, am I not
becoming more hones·t? Am I not becoming more
self-confident? Are these not virtues? Am I
not improving'?
By bringing what is inside of me out, I
change only two things: Appearance and
relationships . People change their appearance
and relationships everyday. People change
clothes to feel better about themselves. People
change friends to feel better about themselves.
People make whatever changes they need to in
order to pursue happiness as they see it.
(didn't America begin as a persuit of
happiness?) If my persuit of happiness leads me
to female appearance and to feminine
relationships, isn't that still my persuit of
happiness?
To you that have found hang- ups and
troubles because of my life, I am sorry. I'm
sorry if I failed to respond to your problems,
or if I failed to see your problems at all. I'm
busy exploring my own new life. I am like an
adolescent discovering him or herself. I am
Just a kid, (not an easy thing to say at my
age) . I never meant to make anyone unhappy, I
only meant to make me happy.
If you hate me because I differ from your
beliefs, I suggest that you read ""Mein Komp·· and
study the workings of Adolph Hitler's master
plan, so that you may use your hatred to it's
fullest extent against me . If you feel that
this suggestion is inappropriate, then it is
most likely that your hatred is righteous and
proper, based on the teachings of the bible. To
you, I suggest that you keep your head buried in
the Old Testament and above all do not read
Matthew 22:39 because you won't want to know
that Jesus superseded your hatred long ago.
If you have written me off as crazy and
sick, then please remind me of my affliction
every time you see me, because I want to be
constantly reminded that the life I was living
was as small, closed, and ignorant as your's is
now.
If you have read my letter and are unable
to accept or understand me, then please .do one
111<>re thing for me: In your next .prayer when you
are asking God to give you faith so that you may
make it safely into heaven, ask him to re111<>ve
from me the corruptions that you feel I have.
However, if you have read ay letter and
think that you might like me or at least want me
to live in peace and happiness, then please do
one more thing for me: In your next prayer, ask
our Father to introduce us, once we arrive in
heaven. With all my heart,
Carin Victoria Gleason

''Frankly, My Dear ... "
l7y Frank Benge
""LIFE IMITATES T. V ...
Have you ever bad one of those days when
your mind feels like somebody sprayed PAM on it?
The sudden realization that you aren't going to
be particulary retentive of anything, but the
slogans on people's T- Shirts?
Well, during my last period of PHS <Pam
Mentality Syndrome), I was amusing my
remaining grey matter with the T-Shirt
slogan ..... Hy [.ife Is A Soap Opera.. when I
suddenly had one of those moments when my mind
slips gears and shifts into overdrive ... and
when you're contemplating a T-Shirt slogan the
results of the mental activity can be rather
frightening.
I really don't know any Gay person who can
honestly wear a T- Shirt that say's .. Hy Life Is A
Soap Opera ... That slogan seems to apply to the
straight world . (I base this on the fact that
I've lost no friends to Uli'O' s and have yet to
wake up to discover that my whole last year was
Just a dream ... as much as I would have liked
to) .
After careful consideration it seems that
the Gay version of that T-Sbirt would have to
read ··Hy Life Is A Sitcom .. (and not the Cosby
show, as that's sci - fi.) For most of us, the
shirt could even be more specific and say .. Hy
Life Is The Mary Tyler Moore Show ...
To test whether this app]ys to you or not,
here i s a guide to spotting various characters
in your surroundings. Ted Baxt.er; The next time
you're at work , take a moment and carefully
observe your co-workers. If you don't go into
shock from whal you see, you'll realize that you
work with at least one Ted Baxter. Don't be
surprised if you spot a Georgette before you
spo1. a Ted, especially if your co- workers are
Gay, too . Sue Ann Nivens; This one is harder to
spot (Unless you work in a bar, where Sue Anns
can be found in abundance.) Take some time with
this one. You may also want to look for this
one while drinking. It's not uncommon to
discover that your Sue Ann is your best friend
and , if you're drinking have something handy to
throw when the realization hits you.
Mary, Rhoda & Phyllis· This one gets a
little complicated and, therefore, takes some
explanation. At one time or another in your
life, you will find that you qualify as all of
these characters. (this can also be called the
.. Sybil Theory ... ) Here's how to tell when you
are who .
Mary : Life was always perfect for Mary,
especially in the dating department . Whenever
Mary really wanted a date, she got one. The
easiest way to tell if you're in .. Mary Mode .. is
if, after a night at the bars, you get to go
home with someone.
Rhoda : This one's alot easier to tell . If
the bar closes and you face the prospect of
going home and rolling your hair ... you are
Rhoda.
Phyllis: This one is the easiest to spot of
all ... but, only in retrospect. On those nights
when you don't feel like going anywhere an~
everyone you know annoys you, chances are you're
being Phyllis. If you are on the phone dishing
people, then it's definite .
And, if you have a lover, you get to play
Hurray. Unless, of course you're too busy·
acting like another set of Gay role aodels. Who?·
Why, Lucy and Desi, of course.

By R<v. James Sandmire
When Rever<:nd Troy Peny founded Metropolitan
Community Church in 1968, he called gay men and
lesbians into a new relationship with their Creator. In
1969, newly-founded Metropolitan Community Churches
came together to form a new denomination
- the Universal Fellowship of Metropolitan· Com·
munity 01Urches or u we calJ it, '"The Fellowship."
The exciting message of the a!J~mbracing love of God
has brought thousands of gay and non-gay penons
into our family. Metropolitan Community Qiu;ches
are found in most American cities, suburbs and many
rural areas; in Canada, Australia; New Zealand, the
United Kingdom, Denmark, Nigeria, South Africa,
Mexico and other countries.
Within our unique Fellowship a special blend of
doctrine and covemment has 'lfOWD up. The coogreptional
tradition has always been strong in the
.Fellowship, Sometimes that congregational 1ovemment
has been modifu:d in the interests of common
purposes arid better 1ovemin1 of the whole Fellowship.
Why hu that happened? Of what ...Jue is the
Fellowship to local Metropolitan Community Oiurches
and memben?

GateMCC. He pastored MCC churches in San Francisco,
Los Angeles, AU Saints, East Bay and San

WHY BE TESTED FOR THE AIDS ANTIBODY?
For anyone with some risk, it is important to know one ' s AIDS- ant i body
status. Because, if you should happen to be AIDS antibody positive,
these 22 precautions and/or suggestions mi ght help save your life
or t he life of someone you love:
For those who already have AIDS , AOC (AIDS Dementia Complex) or ARC
(AIDS Related Complex), following t hese procedures and/or suggestions
may l engthen your lifespan considerably .
1. For those testing AIDS- antibody positive (HIV Positive) , it is suggested that you contact the San Antonio Tavern
Guild AIDS Foundation to discover and evaluate the programs that are available. We can be of assistance in many
ways; all services are f r ee and all information remains confidential.
2. If you do not have t he r esources to see a physician, please contact the San Antonio Tavern Guil d AIDS Foundation
for assistance.
3. Avoid live vaccines, s uch as those for measles, mumps , and rubella.
14 . Get a doctor ' s recommendation about pneumonia and flu vaccinations, which are often recommended. They use killedvirus
vaccines.
5, Polio can be contracted by an AIDS-antibody-positive person from oral polio vaccine virus excreted in the stool
of a vaccinated child or adult . No oral polio (live virus) vaccine should be given i n a household with an AIDSantibody-
positive person.
6. Your doctor will not use immunosuppressive drugs, such as corticosteroids, certain antibiotics, and some anticancer
drugs that are danger ous for AIDS-positive persons.
7. Do not use aspir in or other painkillers without consulting your doctor. As pirin is slightl y immunosuppr essive.
8. Do not use ill icit drugs, including marijuana and he r oin, as they are i mmunosuppressive .
9. Encourage your spouse, ex-spouse, l over, ex-l over , and/or sex partner s t o have the AIDS antibody t est.
0. Pr otect your sex part ner by i nforming him or her of your condition; condoms i mpr ove s afety but do not remove
ill risks.
11. I t is s uggested that anyone testing AIDS antibody positive investigate AL-721 . An AL-721 meeting is held every
Ibursday between 7:00- 7:30 PM at the Foundation's headquarters at 3530 Broadway.
12. Cats transmit toxoplasmosis. Birds transmit histoplasmosis and psittacosis. AIDS antibody positive people
should not clean cat litter or bird cages.
13. Notify your physician, dentist and any other medical personnel that you have had a positive antibody test so
they can do their best to care for you and to prevent the spread of the virus.
14. As your family doctor to help you select a physician who specializes in infectious diseases to do additional
blood tests. Such tests will reveal the condition of your protective T Cells. · Infectious disease specialists are
also trained AIDS counselors. Further, professional ethics dictate that physicians maintain confidentiality.
15. If you are AIDS antibody positive, pregnancy may weaken your immune system and bring on AIDS, AIDS Related
Complex, or AIDS Dementia Complex. The baby has a 30 to 50 percent chance of having AIDS. In an infected mother,
breast milk contains the AIDS virus. Avoid breast feeding .
16. Do not donate blood, plasma, sperm, body organs or other tissues.
17. Avoid unpasteurized milk because there is a risk of salmonella infection, which is more serious in an immunosuppressed
person. Salmonella is spread through contam~nated blood from chicken and other meat0 Use acrylic cutting
boards that clean in dishwashers. Cook turkeys to 180 F. at center. Cook hamburgers to 170 F. Do not eat rare
meat .
18. It is especially important that AIDS antibody positive ~ersons exercise regularly, maintain a proper diet, get
adequate rest, and avoid stress to help maintain the immune system.
19. AIDS antibody positive individuals need to know that they are at a greater risk fbr serious consequences
what . tourists jokingly refer to as "Montezuma' s Revenge" or the "Azte'< Two-Step." If you must travel to Third World
countries, take bottled water and avoid raw foods .
20. To protect your immune system, do not use alcoholic beverages or tobacco products . They are immunosuppressive.
21. Assiduously avoid all additional sexually transmitted infections, such as cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus,
syphilis, and reinfections with the AIDS virus.
22. Do not have your ears pierced or be tattooed .
