ATLANTA BARB-Page 10 "H ello Dollii }S” By GRETTA GOSSIP Who were the two very well known drag queens that went out on a Hub Cap Stealing spree re cently? One was very pro fessional, while the other one had to wash out her undies afterwards. I can see the headlines now! Heh heh. There’s a very str ange couple around town. One claims to be a girl, but everyone knows he is a boy. What is your game kids? R.K. and his lover are at it again. This time it’s over the pemcillan shots.' R.K. has done it to her again. Throwhimoverboard sweetie, he just isn’t worth it all. Gotta give credit to ohe Lounge owner that we know. He is aboui the "rignt- enist cuss” when he gets his bowls in an uproar. Started six of them in one night! And they were all in separate places. Oh, my gay nerves. . . He sure got around. How about B.N. claiming to be Leather? Honey, give it up, you’re as synthetic as they come. The next time P.C. does her thing, lets hope its not a cop that she picked up. What about that “Much talked about marriage” of recent months? I guess that everyone was right. Di vorce seems to be on the agenda for those two now. Congratulations to the person that was picked up on Cypress St. and accus ed by local police, of cert tain “Untruths.” He is fighting it, and we know that he will win. . . There’s a certain per son that recently wound up in the hospital for tak ing 120 tranquilizers. The pathetic thing about it is that she is doing it to get attention, and actually alienating the friends that cared for her. Better wise up dear, people can only take so much! Word is around that the D.J. of Sweet Gum Head was caught in bed by his lover with a real hunky number. Oh my gay ner ves! T.T. I thought you could have been “Cooler” than that. So much for this time dearies, More Rot to come in the next issue. MACON GA., Jerry- Bobbs just returned from out of town.

Pageant Riotous Landers Appearing Nitely The The Gay Trip Our last trip to Chat tanooga was so groovy that we decided to visit Macon -and then Columbus, Ga. The straights travelling the highways were wrecked for days as our Associate ((a wild queen) and the Editor did their best to keep the long ride from getting boring. Saying “Hello,” while passing by doing 50 mph is not that easy, but our associate did very well as he tried on a few wigs; (which just hap- pende to be in the back seat) and waved to the as tonished Maconites. Our fearless editor kept control of the wheel and only shr ieked occasionally at B.B.B truck drivers (would you believe every 5 minutes) It was not easy for me to try to get a truck dri vers description when he was passing by us doing about 70 mph., but under penalty of death, or worse,, hitch hiking home, I at tempted to do so anyway. However, hanging me out the side window by my feet, and screaming “o.k. Jeanni, what does that one look like” was no way to treat a lady. I could have gotten windburn! Finally arriving in Macon we drop ped into the We Three Lounge (thank God) We had all we could do, to drag the illustrious editor inside. He was smiling sweetly at a Macon police officer (in broad daylight, no less) He does go for uniforms. In any respect, we relaxed and had a beer while chatting with Charles El kins the owner, and Chuck his bartender. We deliver ed the issues of the Barb, and left to continue our journey. Onward to Colum bus, Ga., as we stared longingly at the McDonalds that our editor drove past, ignoring our pleas of star-; vation. By this time it was dark and fortunately for the people in the small towns nearby, no one could see us. Upon arrival" in Col umbus, we shared 15 Kry stal burgers, fries and cokes, and were rejuvinat- ed. We visited the Base ment Lounge, and did an interview with Georgia Ann the owner, a Sex Change, and I might add, a lovely person. From there we went to the Fiesta Lounge, where we were cordially welcomed by the Manager Carol. It wasn’t until we had a few beers that we found out that in Colum-. bus, they roll up the side walks at midnight. We rushed over to the Branded Lounge where we met Barry, the manager, a real Groovy guy that informed our egar editor that the Bus Terminal there had been renovated (the mens room) and a certain “glory hole,” removed. After cruising the Terminal one time, we decided to head home. The road was dark, and the return trip very sedate compared to the beginning. All in all, it was a fun time and at least there were no bliz zards of chicken feathers as in our Chattanooga ven ture the previous month.
