Miss Jubilee 2009: July 2009
http://missjubilee2009.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 31, 2009. Page Turners and Buffie Summer Reading Club. Despite the nasty rain, Nirvanna and I met up with Arnie at the Malverne Public Library to celebrate and encourage reading. We were guests on Page Turners. Which Nirvanna perfectly described as "The View" but with librarians! We were able to talk about reading and how it has shaped our lives as well as briefly share our favorite book. I've quoted my favorite many times in this blog, but I'm happy to bring it up again: The Last Lecture.

http://missjubilee2009.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 25, 2009. Miss CA USA. My take. Ok, by nature of my involvement in pageants, and additionally my platform, I have been receiving lots of emails, questions, etc. about the Miss California USA saga. So here are my thoughts - and in the most raw way possible, copied from daily emails to my mom as I think more and more about the situation:. JoJo, (yeah, that's what I call my mom, Jo Ellen). Put Miss USA back on the map, in the media.brought attention, that's for sure! All of us have a belief ...

My Gay Pride glow segues to fireworks of freedom. - My Son Wears Heels
http://mysonwearsheels.com/2015/07/my-gay-pride-glow-segues-to-fireworks-of-freedom
My Gay Pride glow segues to fireworks of freedom. July 3, 2015. Harry, hours before bursting into tears at the first sound of Milwaukee’s lakefront fireworks, July 3, 1992. I can’t lie. A week after New York City’s most celebrated LGBTQ Pride March ever, the Fourth of July just seems a bit anti-climactic. For all Independence Day’s red, white and blue splendor, it was last week’s Supreme Court ruling on same-sex marriage. Parade are still with me. Here are a few of the moments I’ll never forget. I never ...

Miss New York 2010. Sunday, January 23, 2011. 5 Miss America Albums on my Photo Gallery. Did that all just really happen? Energetic with big dreams and expectations. And as 53 Type A personalities are put in a room subconsciously sizing each other up and then you add preliminary awards, you're bound for some ‘tudes, right? Well, I think we had all prepared for a bit of it and honestly we did not witness it. That was the amazing part of our class! So what was it like? I really felt like I had won at that ...

Miss New York 2010. Saturday, May 28, 2011. AIDS Walk NYC Impact Red. AIDS Walk NYC is an enormous event that rain or shine, brings together 45,000 people who all walk for different reasons.

This year, I walked with Impact Red. Tyler Helms, Founder Impact Red. Thanks for your support, Matt. Laura Innes from The Event. Sarah and me ...

In our meeting, Kenny and Paul took a few polls I think you might find interesting:. How many girls were born in NY State? How many girls are aging out? Miss SE...
