friends of... Dorothy

All the witches and goblins are preparing for the upcoming festivities. Like most of you, it will be a very close tossup as to how I'll go about spending the Halloween weekend. The Midwest will be parting down, from state to state, city to city, and bar to bar. I plan on browsing through the ads in this issue of Metra, and work on plotting my course for the evenings to follow. It will be very difficult for Dorothy to R.S.V.P. all the party invitations covering her desk; yet, through eyes and ears of my many friends, I will try my best to highlight the funniest and spookiest happenings in the next issue.

On a more southern note, the people at TIMBERFELL LODGES are working on plans to add on to their already beautiful grounds. Imagine-adding more features than they already have, such as sparkling clean deluxe rooms, a sauna, jacuzzi, gourmet breakfasts, and 250 secluded acres -with plenty of nudity! We could have out own little gay dynasty. How festive! Timberfell is the hottest lodge in Tennessee open all year round.

Over at COMPANY, the Polish Princess is still planning her birthday party, scheduled for October 25th. Make certain you remember to help make that a special day for Ron. And don't forget the presents!

Speaking of birthdays, we at Metra would like to remind everyone of Gwen's birthday party (from RAZMATAZ) scheduled for October 24th.

Ava and the gang at the LOST & FOUND will be having their fun filled annual Octoberfest on Halloween Eve, Friday, October 30th. Stop in and join in the fun! Just recently, the Professional, Over 30's Group had a great get-together at ANN SATHERS. It's ashame that Dorothy missed that one. I should at least acquaint myself with the members of this group since I am slowly but surely approaching 30. Chicago is definitely going to be one of

the places to be during the Halloween weekend. Many bar are having benefit parties, as well as plain old-fashioned good clean fun! Check out the ads, and plan your evening now!
