It's time for another report from the LeMay's correspondent to the south! This week was gay pride week, and at the insistence of Lucy Belle LeMay I went to the parade and took lots of pictures for her. If she would get off her duff and visit NYC, she could see these things herself. Oh well.
Despite the on-again off-again rain showers and thunder, the parade was a hit as always. Thousands marched and many, many more watched. Starting at noon, the NYC Heritage of Pride Parade runs for somewhere about 5 hours. Below are just a few photos of the event, including lots of scantily clad, shirtless, sexy, and sometimes wet people.

Here! tv was out in full force just begging you to watch Dante's Cove. Who knows what has been in that cove!
Batman and Robin are rarely gayer than when they hold hands and roller skate in the parade.
Even Google felt the need to promote, promote, promote. They were handing out fans to help with the heat. Why couldn't they hand out what people really wanted. Shares of stock!


The new gay musical Bash'd drove by.

Congressman Anthony Weiner marched to show his support.
And while the parade has real firemen in it, this guy may have been a fake...
...butt no one cared!



The gay cowboys came down from Brokeback Mt. just for the day.
This guy had the right idea for the rain...bring your own boat.
And when the rain hit, the parade went on. Gays don't melt.
It's amazing how fast a girl in heels can move in the rain!

But soon the sun came back out and dried off the queens who had hidden themselves under awnings and in stores while the parade continued.


And the winner for best float was NAIR for Men. Great debate occurred among the crowd as to whether these men actually had to use the product or not.

And it just goes to show that a mess in a dress is still a mess in a dress, no matter what state you are in.

The gay rugby players were out in full force.

And the gay cops and firemen marched. Even the paramedics got into the action.




Eva Peron reappeared to greet all!
And a mess without a dress...
Well hopefully this was enough photos for the LeMays. And maybe they will visit, or march, next year!!!
Oh Russell!!! Thank you SO much. Was there any way you could have detoured
that parade to head to Vermont for OUR Pride Day on July 12? How about
just that Nair 4 Men Float - I could settle for that.
Thank You Russell. You took some GREAT photos. I know that it must have
been hard for you!!
Is that big, pink "mess without a dress" Tawdry?
