It seems like forever since my last Under the Gaydar article but it has only been a few mere months. As you grow older, time becomes a much more precious commodity and life has a way demonstrating that in spades. I remember when I first approached Rip about writing a column for Ambush.

Community Spotlight As Ambush enters it’s new phase, I wanted to change some of the focus of this monthly column which used to focus the Bartender of the month.
