Art Attack – Mardi Gras – PG John Rankine 2/14/2013 People are shocked when I mention I’ve never been to New Orleans. They look at me like my Gay Card should be revoked and shredded.

Art Attack – Marriage Equality John Rankine 1/3/2013 I met my partner Billy at a mutual friend’s birthday party in Key West 20 years ago.
