Man Around will send promotional mailings next month plugging Boston and Cambridge...

Unfortunate choice of words.

Somehow I cannot imagine that many homosexuals will abandon the heat, light, and water of south Florida for Beantown.

Good - keep them up there so they don't pollute the South.

$100K is nothing for advertising.

hardly a campaign

I'll be the first to admit I don't know much about the tourist business, but $100,000 doesn't sound like very much money to spend on an ad campaign.

I think that person meant to imply that gay people have a higher level of disposable income.

It's not a lot of money... but articles like this are free advertisements.

"I think that person meant to imply that gay people have a higher level of disposable income."

Maybe the liberals are trying to lure them in as a group so they can levee a Sin Tax on them to pay for AIDs medical treatment. They've already done it to every other high risk behavior group. Fair is fair...

Yep.

They don't reproduce, so they don't have to spend money on braces, tuition, childrens' healthcare and a million other things that reduce most normal people's disposable income.

They can spend their money on themselves.

But they're second class citizens. They have to ride in the back of the Limo. I saw the plaintiffs in Goodrich celebrating the one year anniversary of the judicial takeover of MA. I recognized the neighborhood they live in. The average home is valued at $3 million.

Each of the major tourist sites will be accessible from the back door.

Santorum was right for slamming Mass. (2 years ago) As a reprobate state.
