Hundreds of Sacramento-area students rallied to support four students suspended for wearing anti-gay shirts. One participant said: "It's only going to get worse against Christians. We're going to get persecuted more and more. But those who stand to the end: God is going to save them." Um, right...
Sony's banking on Spider Man 3. Literally. Some insiders claim the flick cost $300 million to produce. No doubt, however, it'll make it back. And then some.

Having moved last year to Saskatoon from Calgary, David is pursuing a painting career and seems happy with his choice despite the small gay scene in Saskatoon. Since we're heading to Calgary tomorrow, we thought it fitting to print an interview with a native who left it all behind. After the jump, David tells us about the Saskatoon gay scene and also a bit about why he left Calgary.

On our way out of Saskatoon, we stopped in for a bite to eat at Headquarters, which is a spacious bar that is known for hosting some wild gay events. As he made our BLTs, owner Dave told us about what's coming up this summer.

June 15: The theme for Saskatoon Pride this year is "Queer We Go Again," which we don't really understand, but the Headquarters toga party promises to be a free-flowing and free-balling night of local guys with no underwear. Oh yes, and there will be hedonism: lots of it.
July 15: The one-year celebration of Headquarters. Dave and his partner, who manages the bar, got city approval to use the back alley and parking lot to create a giant beer garden behind the bar. Queerty loves beer gardens, especially when they are full of cute gays and not drunk fratboys (though that can be fun in a different way).

On our way to the beautiful river city of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan we kept hearing gays whisper about Diva's, which is one of very few gay destinations in town, and is certainly the place to be on Saturday night. With an excellent sound system, great DJ, cheap drinks, and a lively (if slightly camera-shy) crowd, it's hard not to have a good time at Diva's.

We encountered a few things that are becoming themes of our trip: pinball machines, hot 19-year-olds, and weird back alley entrances. While we did not have to "crawl through trash cans" as one reader warned, the entrance to Diva's is not obvious and you need to be vigilant or you could walk right by. The other two themes speak for themselves, and you can see more proof after the jump.
