Your maganzine, without fail, is the bright spot of my otherwise dull workweek as a middle-of-the-road corporate citizen. I would like to contribute a short, incomplete list, inspired—admittedly,by your very own Joe West whose real first name is Ralph. Underrated, If Slightly Awful, Movies filmed on location in Pittsburgh: Underrated, If Slightly Awuful, Movies filmed on location somewhere else, but that could easily have been filmed in Pittsburgh: Sincerely, --- From: The Mick Have you heard this one before? Stop me if you have. "I love you andwant to spend the rest of my life with you." Well take it from me it doesn'twork out that way in the end. Just recently getting out of an engagementthat I didn't want to get out of has taught me a couple of things. Firstthat finding someone who wants the same things out of life and has thesame ideals as you is next to impossible to find (especially in Pittsburgh).Second is that no matter how much you love someone that much love willnever be returned in a manner that you will feel comfortable with or at a levelthat you expect. Third point is that the gay population in this city istoo damn small so I can't even say, "That's it, I'm going to turn gay now sinceyou and I can't be together on the same level." The only thing that this city is good for as far as heart-break goes is the fact that there is a bar on every corner with a sympathetic beer-slinger ready to listen to whateveris ailing you. If it weren't for that, I might have taken a leap off of thatgreat big mountain we call Mt. Washington (and not the Mt. Washingtonyou're all thinking of). It's so hard to find that special someone and it's evenharder when you do and they don't have the same thing in mind as you. "Ifeel to much pressure from you." "Well then if that's the case why did you let me buy the ring?" "You picked it out and everything was fine that day, but now things have changed?" Not enough good girls with all their teeth in this fair city we call home. Maybe we should stop building ballparks and convention centers and try building a population, so people like me will have some choices in which person we could spend our lives with. | |
