I really got turned off to local Hoboken politics years ago. I almost didn't vote for the first time in 33 years this time because I really didn't know the candidates or issues that well. Coming out of the Path Underground Train Station, I noticed some pretty young white girls looking awfully bored as they held signs & passed out literature. They looked more like H.S. cheerleaders than political activists. Elsewhere I saw others, both young & old, excitedly promoting their candidates. On impulse, I ran home, grabbed the camera & went out to ask some leafleters why they were involved. The bored cheer leaders had gone home but there were a variety of other people to interview. I want to thank each & every person in this video for simply being who they were--including the man who threatened to sue me. There will probably be a run off. I'm more interested now & hope to make my mind up on my own after a little more research this time.

Someone stole one of my videos on YouTube & published it as his own. When I discovered everything, I was furious. A friend filmed me raging and raving at my computer screen. The thief was getting hits at twelve times the rate I was. Instead of "getting even", I decided to turn it into a learning experience. This is the story of a video stolen from me on YouTube which now seems destined to be the most popular one I ever published.

City Critters enable people to "foster parent" cats and dogs, take them into their homes temporarily until a permanent home can be found. Randy Wicker talks to Marsha, a City Critter veteran volunteer, about the group's unique approach for finding homes for needy animals. This is a way for those unable (or unwilling) to fully adopt an animal to bring a pet into their lives.
Friendship and art are life's greatest treasures. This story is about how the two sometimes go together. Videographers & filmmakers will understand.
At age 15, she fell in love with an 18-year-old boy who was gay. She kept him in her life for 30 years. He was like a big brother, became the Godfather of her daughter and became a member of the family. Her husband also has many gay friends. Her daughter, now married, started painting prides comprised of male lions at the age of ten. Now she's launching a non-profit co-operative called "Somewhere Around The Rainbow" to network with other artists interested in doing gay positive art.
This unconventional romp through fantasies of fame captures me giving myself some ingenuous advice. It's fun to fixate on image, fashion and beauty while approaching the age of seventy. You can barely avoid being silly and funny. And that's the entire idea....

Reality publishing" has changed the way celebrity biographies are being written today.

The "True Church of Jesus" sets up at different street fairs every weekend all summer long. In June of 2005, they paid $50 to set up at the "Christopher Street Fair" unaware that it was the annual Gay Pride Fair and homosexuals were still furious at the Republican Party for making Gay Marriage "the issue" in the 2004 campaign. In this interview, the spokesperson for the Taiwan -based "True Church of Jesus" talks with Randy Wicker about his experiences and impressions at the gay fair.
Transexuals & gender idenity have captured the public imagination. "Transgeneration" (the series) & "TransAmerica" (the movie) have opened up public discussion about what it is to be male and/or female or somewhere in between. Gender identity is separate from sexual orientation. 25% of transexuals are attracted to members of the opposite biological sex before changing their gender identity. For them, changing gender means going from being a heterosexual biological woman to being a biological gay man--or from being a heterosexual biological male to being a lesbian, as can be seen in my previous vlogs: "Transgender Same Sex Marriage" and "Why Women Chase Trans Men". Now, trans people are organizing to become equal citizens of modern day society. This tells the story of their struggle......

Stamford Manor hosts "Civil Union Celebrations" in southern Vermont, just three hours from NYC.
