If you were one of the more than 300 people gatehered under the stars to watch Joan Crawford lop off some heads this past Firday night, you no doubt remember the "awwww" inducing moment when Joe Matessa proposed to his partner, Billy.
See... they met at Pride in Chicago a few years ago, and Joe wanted to find the perfect Pride event at which to propose to Billy.
Well, I'll let the Reliable Source tell you all about it... scroll down about 2/3 of the way and look for the heading "Will you Marry Me? Just Ax".
You may have to cut and paste this link; I'm so worn out from this weekend's festivities that I could barely order a blueberry muffin and iced coffee without starting an international incident. Needless to say, html is a bit beyond my reach right now.

Thanks to EVERYONE who came out to our Pride booth this weekend - and much gratitude to all the volunteers and board members who braved the heat and the crowds to help out. Pride, which at times can seem like a gay Calcutta with all the stickers, petitions and tchotchke hawkers, is still a pretty amazing way to spend the afternoon. I know that we contributed to the throng - we gave out candy, our snazzy limited edition Reel Affirmations magnets, postcards for Laugh Out Loud and Vespa opportunities to win - our booth was busy nearly all day long.
Happy recovery day, everyone-
