Around the cafe’ we’re just happy to have you all feel at home here. That’s reward enough. But when a major local magazine comes a callin’, we brush our teeth, comb our hair and make sure we’re all perty to see what they have to say.

Well, what they said was that, Spirit Boston, Boston’s Premier Gay and Lesbian magazine, has given Beck’s Cafe the nod as one of the Boston Blog’s to Read in the Transgender category. Well isn’t that nice! If anyone has a copy of the Decemeber/January issue we’d love to see it. I heard from the reporter that the mention was in that issue.

Of course the only reason this wonderful award happened at all is because of YOU, our wonderfully caffeine juiced up readers. We just whip out the content but YOU put us where we are ’cause you read us So thank you all very much from the bottom of the team’s heart

(We’re leaving this post up as our top post for a bit as we follow this)

Tenessa Thomas, age 13 of Auburn, Maine went missing on Thursday, 3/22/07 around 7am. She took none of her things for school, no jackets, and all of the doors and windows have been locked with no sign of any entry. Basically, the parents have no idea about anything what so ever. If ANYONE has ANY information about her where abouts or even nows someone who knows something PLEASE call (3/23/07: phone numbers deleted as Tenessa was found).

I got this message from an acquaintence via email. We’ve emailed back asking that the parents contact the Maine police to kick off the nationwide Amber Alert System for this little girl. We’ll post updates here to this post to keep everyone informed as this very serious issue develops.
