Not to be outdone by its northern neighbor, San Jose held its celebration
last Saturday.  I dropped in to see what it was all about.  They estimated
about 3,000 people in attendance.  It was a downtown park block covered
solid with people.

I'm not into politics so I can't say which groups were there and which
weren't, but I am into people and feeling good.  There were a lot of
beautiful people there and we all felt very good about ourselves, each
other, and what we were celebrating.

I fould out about a group called High Tech Gays which operates in Silicon
Valley.  They had a rather prominant booth and appeared to be a dominant
force in organizing the event.

Unlike many of you veterans out there, I attended my first gay parade in
L.A. last year.  I was totally blown away.  I am now looking forward to my
first parade in S.F. this weekend.

See you there?

John
