Subject: IML: Gay Imperial Owners?
Date: Tue, 28 Dec 2004 23:18:10 -0800
Years, ago, one of the Special Interest Groups for this discussion list was
the "OIC Rainbows" list. It was a special "Safe Space" for the gay couples
and singles among us to "let their hair down" and speak of personal stuff
in a frank and open way without worrying that folks were going to try and
shame them for speaking their minds. They all belonged to the main list as
well, as loyal and energetic Imperialists!
What ever happened to that list? There were about fifty households on that
list when I moved onward to my next project, years ago.
The Online Imperial Club, the Town & Country Registry, the Cadillac/LaSalle
Club, the Lincoln Continental Owners Club and other luxury car clubs have a
large proportion of gay couples and singles as members. Retired straight
couples, too... Kids can be a very limiting factor in the
car-collecting/restring hobby. If it's a choice between diapers and
education for treasured youngsters versus a new, baby-blue pearlescent
leather interior for the LeBaron, kids always win, as they always, ALWAYS
should. I've raised six foster kids myself, and that's part of the reason
why my cars never got fully restored. I'd do it again the same way.
If the "OIC Rainbows" list (clever name, huh?) is defunct, and if anybody
is interested in being members on a revived version, please contact me
privately at papatony@xxxxxxx and we'll see what we can do about it. I
doubt that I'll be hanging around on that list, though. I'm pretty
scattered and overwhelmed right now. It may not SEEM like it, with all of
the stuff I'm posting lately, but my output is about one tenth of what it
used to be. Keeping up with so many Imperialists lately has been a real
tonic for me. I haven't been so moody and morose, thanks to the zany and
friendly antics of so many cool car-freaks! :->
