Guerilla Gay Bar December location just announced

Guerilla Gay Bar has made an excellent choice with one of my favorites and a good spot that I think everyone will enjoy. It’s casual, cool and their selection of beers is OUTSTANDING. So where is GGB taking you tomorrow? Look a little Uptown won’t you? Here’s the word:

Howdy Partners, Guerilla Partners that is, please join us for the December Holiday Takeover. This month we are hosting the HO HO HOedown takeover at the Gingerman Pub. It’s the holidays and who doesn’t like a Gingerbread Man, um, we mean gingerbread person(it is 2008, gotta be P.C.!) Since last month we were a little bit Rock-N-Roll, the attire for this months takeover is a little bit Country (attire, not bar,we’re all about pushing boundaries, but not crazy!). Or, be bold and come in your most hideous holiday sweater! You know you have them, even if they are hidden in the back of that closet you blew out of.
Free drink for the first person to show up in Chaps (with pants/jeans under them please) or a bedazzled sweater! Find the host to claim your prize!

*Note – Start time is 9:00 PM*

Cheers Queers! It’s time to have a Merry Merry, Mary!!

The Gingerman is also doing a food drive for the North Texas Food Bank called “Get Canned.” Let’s all chip in and help the out! Plus, for each item you get a chance to win a ticket to one of their beer tastings.

Here is more info:

“Get Canned”
Canned Food Drive December 1st – January 10th
Bring canned food to help fight hunger in North Texas
Supporting the North Texas Food Bank
For each can or box donated you may enter to win a ticket to one of our beer tastings.

Feel free to add any GLBT person you think would be interested in coming. Please make sure they haven’t already been invited to avoid multiple emails. We especially want to see more girls join us. We love our gay sisters! Simply click on “Invite More People” to the left.

If you would like to be removed, you can click the remove me button, but you’re going to miss out on all the fun!!

Plus, according to the calendar, local musician Mike McFarland will be performing. I keep hoping to help bridge the GLBT community to the local music scene. Thanks to GGB for inadvertantly helping out with that!

Join The Impact Dallas starts Christmas Food and Card Drive

Here’s the word from Join The Impact, the organization that’s been making waves since the whole Prop 8 debacle. But the impact isn’t stopping there. They are clearly willing to make a complete impact on the GLBT community as a whole. Read on:

Join The Impact-Dallas’ Food & Christmas Card Drive has officially begun.
We need you NOW! Want to talk equality? Let your heart speak for you!

1. Before December 16th, while you’re making out your Christmas or Holiday cards, please send a very special one to our friends at the AIDS Food Pantry and be sure to include a nice crisp $20. This year the food pantry is trying to find a new home plus find funds to meet this already increasing time of year.

Read why this Food Pantry was selected by us to support during this Food Drive: http://jointheimpact. wetpaint. com/page/Dallas

There are over 1000 who benefit from this Food Pantry alone, and 2456 in the 2 programs through Resource Center of Dallas (RCD). They need money to help buy food. Let’s see if we can’t send enough Christmas cards with our donations so EVERY person receives a heartfelt message from us.

2.
Resource Center of Dallas/Food Pantry
2701 Reagan Street
PO Box 190869
Dallas TX 75219-0869
Be sure to sign your card “With love, From .., JTI-Dallas

Can’t afford much? Your voice could be worth $20 + the number of people you tell! So use it!
