Gay Ireland

Canadian based Irish author Emma Donoghue has been shortlisted for this year’s Booker prize (http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2010/sep/07/peter-carey-booker-prize-shortlist) for her latest novel “Room.”

I’m not familiar with Donoghue’s work but she has written a lot of lesbian themed fiction in the past and has won many LGBT literary awards.

She is the bookmaker’s favourite for the prestigious Booker prize.

Ok guys & girls, brace yourselves for the best news EVER………

I had yet another deja vu experience yesterday. Only something small, involving two cars and myself driving in convoy down the motorway….three cars on their way back from Macra officer training up the country.

So I wanted to ask…..how aware of Deja Vu are you?

About the April 2003 before I went to college I had a dream about walking down a pavement with a busy road next to me, and I didn’t recognise the place, but felt completely comfortable. I met a few people who were walking in…

Love Ruby’s, Love Sunday nights?

Well we decided to re-open Ruby’s one Sunday a month to offer an extra Club night to the scene monthly. Alot of people who work Saturday’s miss the fun of Fridays at Ruby’s so for those of you We are opening This Sunday the 12th for one night only.

We will offer you cheaper drink deals on all pints and Vodka & dash as like Chambers now on Sundays and midweek.

If successfull and supported we will open 1 night per month as an extra to add more choice to…

All the usuall stuff is on tonight guys and girls…. €5 in, and you get your half price bar, Cheeky cabaret from myself, and then dance your tit’s off till 2am to the sounds of yours truly….. Go on…. you know you want to!!!

Today Kilkenny are playing Tipperary in the GAA Hurling Final. If Kilkenny win they will become the first county ever to win the final five years in a row.

For one guy this game will mean a lot more than just another Kilkenny victory. Five years ago he put €50 on Kilkenny winning five in a row, the odds where 1000-1. Therefore if Kilkenny wins today he can collect his winnings totaling €50,000.

There are many stories of people putting money on seemingly ridiculous and impossible bets…

Lets face it we all love when stars have a good rant at the expense of another star however usually there is cause, some reason to make them explode. France is currently divided in a battle of loyalties as two of their icons went head to head.

Gerard Depardieu when speaking to an Austrian magazine went into an unrelated spout of verbal diahorea when he began critizing French star Juillet Binoche. He went on to ask the interviewer what they thought the secret of Binoche was? Why she was…

Iconic singer and Eurovision diva Niamh Kavanagh will top the bill at Limerick Pride. The songstress will be playing an emotive and upbeat set at La Boutique in Dolans Warehouse on Saturday September 11th.

The gig will be the climax of a packed week of festivities ending in the Pride Parade and the gig in Dolans.

“We have a very exciting show this year for Limerick Pride,” said Producer Nicole Dunphy. …

Not sure if there’s a thread to this effect already on here, but meh. Couldn’t find one, so thought I’d make one.

What are you most afraid of in the whole world? Is it a possible or potential event, is it a phobia, or is it something else entirely? Have you tried to overcome it, do you plan to, or are you trying to at the moment?

For me, it’s spiders (and, to a lesser extent, moths and other such nasties). Even a picture of a spider is enough to make me want to vomit, and if I see…

I was thinking earlier about a few stories of friends scaring people they know and was reminded of the time when i nearly gave a friend a heart attack. After the leaving cert i went to Coláiste Stiofáin Naofa for a year. While there i met this fella through a mutal friend. As the months passed we became friends too. He was an art student and used get his breaks 10 minutes later than i did. One day i was walking through an assembly area to get to the canteen. One wall of the area was glass…

Gay Muslims exist, and they need solidarity too
By Edna Nelson

Never before have I heard so much advocacy for gay rights from weird sources as I have while listening to arguments about the Muslim cultural center/mosque planned near ground zero in Manhattan. I heard a woman call a local radio show arguing that if gay folks (and women with uncovered heads and prostitutes) wouldn’t be…

Ok, just throwing a question out there… The last 2 weeks, I havn’t done any cabaret numbers, as people havn’t been in until late, so, I’m giving you the choice this week as I do like to throw a couple of numbers out there…. would anybody like to see a little of The Divine, before the dancefloor opens up?….. Now there’s customer input for ya!….. :dancegirl:
