Yup, I was sure you were talking about Rainbow girls and their damn poofy dresses. I’m a present Job’s Daughter, can’t wait to get out. ::sigh::

I went to a Rainbow Gathering once. They looked like a bunch of hippies to me.  
The Rainbow Coalition, on the other hand, was a well-meaning waste of votes. _See: Green Party (a splinter group?)_😉

P.S. The Spectrum Minister of the Rainbow Society is Roy G. Biv…God only knows what will happen to me now that I’ve revealed this fact.

What, you think those rainbows just organize _themselves_??! With all those colors always in the right order, and just the right curve to the thing? Heck no! It takes organizing!

Ah. Well, there was that guy who used to umpire at games for an almost all lesbian softball league. Three quarters of the way through the his second season umping, during which the players on our team at least were far from shy about expressing their affections, the umpire asked out the 2nd baseman – who had been very visibly “married” to the team manager for many years.

Then there’s the guy who wanted to buy me from my girlfriend, many years ago when I was still young and cute…

And the guy who thought “committed lesbian relationship” meant “two crazy wild chicks who are just waiting for some idiot to come along and have a threesome with them.” For some strange reason, he was unenthusiastic when my girlfriend suggested that a threesome would be a lot more likely and work out a lot better if he would go home and send his girlfriend over to our house, instead.

Sigh.
