Changing of the Guard

Joseph DaBrow Managing Editor

Hey guys. Well I guess spring has finally started to come out of its closet. This last week was just what the Doctor ordered for me as I am sure for a lot of you. I have taken back to my nightly ritual of driving along the coast where I can listen to the water slapping the shore and breath in the smell of salt air. It’s a time I set aside for myself to let the stress of the day drain out and let myself relax. I can’t tell you how well I sleep after returning from one of these meditation cruises. Spring is undeniably here.

This issue we try to help get you ready for the great days that lay ahead over the next few months. Don and Tony have a really good piece about upcoming theater events that may be of interest to you. Damian has talked a little in past issues on gay youth finding alternatives to the club scene to invest some of their time in. His insightful advice to youth can equally well be applied to all of us. Don and Tony have searched out a plethora of gay themed entertainment options that everyone, both gay and straight, can enjoy. Give it a read and tell us what you think.

Talking about Damian, he has again put pencil to pad and come up with an intriguing article about the deeper meaning of Spring Cleaning. I really have to talk to him about that pencil and pad thing by the way. His handwriting really sucks and I am getting tired of typing it all into the computer so we can process his stuff into the magazine. My eyes can take just so much. Just joking, his views are very much worth giving some thought to, and I look forward to publishing more of his work.

We have tried to pick out some more interesting news items from both locally and the national scene. I think we found some interesting items for you.

As always, please let us know how we are doing. I hope you enjoy the issue and please, keep in touch (keepintouch@metroline-online.com, of course).
