One of the first things I learned after climbing out my closet is that (generally speaking), lesbians in Portland love two things:  their cats and softball.

While the former speaks for it's cuddly and cute self.... rest assured there is little that is 'cuddly' or 'cute' about queer softball in Portland... wait - hot  persons running around in short shorts... yes, that's hella' cute... so let's just go with their nothing 'cuddly' about it. lol

Anyone who has been to LCP knows that softball is a serious sport and one that matters deeply to the players who commit to multiple weekly practices and games.   Players who play in the rain and the wind and the cold and the dry summer heat, playing out every inning with drive and passion.

However, as with all things in this glorious community, the need to win is tempered with the desire to help and support each other.  It's part of what makes our community, and every facet of it, unique and special because while winning is a goal;  it's not the only goal.   I, for one, completely and utterly sucked during my one 'season' as an outfielder for Pitches Be Crazy but that never stopped Darcy from slapping me a high five, or Kate from giving me encouraging words, or Katie from yelling support from the dug-out.  
As we kick-off the summer season of softball, Inferno and the Rose City Softball Association are proud to bring you the TONI CARR NO PLAYER LEFT BEHIND FUNDRAISER which raises money to help players off-set the cost of playing.  

This Saturday's dance will feature an evening of good lookin' people (and lots and lots of them), as well as a 50/50 Raffle and some fantastic auction items.  

First up, we have an AWESOME Date Night with Helix Holman who plays for the Inferno sponsored softball team.  Aside from their dashing good looks and undeniable charm, here is what you get if YOU are lucky enough to win a date with Helix:

Coffee or Cocktails
With a Dandy, Dapper Butch who’s playful and flirtatious.

"Doesn’t coffee taste better when someone else makes it or brings it to you? 
 Let me make/ bring/ take you to coffee (No night before activities required, but possible). 
We’ll have coffee and pastries wherever you/me or we desire (because the more the merrier- you may supply an extra person).

Not a coffee fan?  Have you ever had a Dandy Dapper Butch take you out for a night on the town?  I’ll take you out to the best cocktail places in town and match whatever you’re wearing (No after activities required, but negotiable). 

Fret not, I have a bowtie to match anything you could ever wear.   

Don’t like either option? I’m flexible, strong, and talented- I’ll come up with something you want."

my husband of 9years left me just because i could not give him A child, i did all i could to make sure i give him a child, i even went to an extent of forcing him to have sex with me every night but could not work. not untill one evening when i was browsing through the internet, i saw a comment on how a woman in same problem like mine was made home by A man called Dr onofe. i read about him and decided to contact him for help, i did as he ask me to do but i was still wondering how can someone just bring back my love he don't even know but i keep doing as he ask me to do. i was very surprise one morning my husband came and started begging me to come back to his life. at first i pretend to be angry then i accepted him back. Dr onofe also cast a spell for me to make me have children and as i speak right now i am a mother with 3kids. if there is any one out there who needs his help you can contact him through his personal EMAIL: onofetemple@yahoo.com or website: http://onofetemple.wix.com/http com i wish you good luck
