Blame It On My Lemon Juice...

Pucker Up
Jennifer Aniston

Well as fate would have it today is National Lemon Juice Day, Yay! Why would this excite me?! Because I am a big partaker of the juice myself, that's why.

"Yes" I start off each morning with a big ole glass of lemon water, that's correct I take lemons from my refrigerator, squeeze them by hand so their juice goes into my waiting glass of water.

Not only does it taste great it has some groovy health benefits as well. What are they? Well the prime one for me is it aids in weight loss. Which I'm sure makes the juice all the more attractive to those of you reading this right here, right now...

As you can see Jennifer Aniston lives by the juice, and so do I.

Now get work Minions, you have lemons to squeeze!!!

Monday Motivation

Ho, Ho, Hunk!
Kurt Russell
In keeping with yesterday's Hunky Holiday theme today's Monday Motivation comes in the form of none other than Santa Claus! Well Kurt Russell as Santa in the Netflix Holiday movie The Christmas Chronicles, saw that three times fast, c'mon I dare ya!

Who 'd have ever thunk that Santa would ever qualify as Hunky?! I ask you, "yep" I am asking so gimme an answer, post haste. Well when 67 year old Kurt Russell portrays him, he magically becomes Hot Daddy material.

Thus Kurt, not Santa is really what motivates me this Monday to keep up on the fitness and health regime I have embarked on and to keep getting better and better. 

So with a mighty Ho, Ho, Ho I send you on your way this Monday December 3rd 2018 to take on the world and do something good for yourself. "Tis the season after all...!!!

Monday Motivation

What's New Pussycat?
Michelle Pfeiffer
"I am Catwoman hear me roar" - Michelle Pfeiffer "Catwoman" Batman Returns

For some reason my Monday Motivation thoughts have wandered to that time I saw the great Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman in the interesting, yet highly flawed Batman Returns directed by Tim Burton.

Well I actually know the reasons. Having lost 50 lbs my mind has been preoccupied with fitness and health. Not to mention a take no prisoners attitude. 

Michelle who stole Batman Returns as Catwoman embodies all of these qualities. Her Eff U attitude and perfectly fit body rocked that skin tight catsuit and caused quite the commotion.

Thus today, Labor Day 2018 Michelle Pfeiffer's Catwoman is my spirit hybrid. What? She's not an animal she's a human being taking on the qualities of one, so she is not a spirit animal, more a hybrid. Like the Toyota Prius

Have a groovy LD minions!

New Year, New...

You Make Me Feel, Mighty Real
Michael Shinafelt
Well it's here, New Year's Eve has arrived! 2018 here we come! So let's cut to the chase, if there is one completely asinine NYE sentiment it has to be: "New Year, New Me" - Ummmmmmm, OK how in the F#ck is that going to happen?!

The things going on with you from last year aren't going to magically disappear at the stroke of midnight, they will carry over. Not to mean that is a bad thing, it simply means you are still going to be you. Sure you can work to improve yourself, in many ways like your health, taking a class and learning something new or being the change you want to see in the world. But new you, WTF?!

All we can do is the best we can by constantly striving to become our authentic selves in service to a better world to inhabit. Thus I never make New Year's resolutions they are only a recipe for failure and I am constantly working on bettering my world all year long. 

Basically all NYE means is it's a different year. Nothing more. 

Happy 2018 and may you you strive to become a better you everyday!

Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny...

Wow!
Sharon Stone

She wore an itsy bitsy teeny weeny blue string bikini...That's right, it's Sharon Stone rocking said swimwear and guess what? She's 58!

I am posting this because as someone over 50 (51 to be exact) and wanting to shed some weight, appearance & health have been on my mind a lot of late. 

While I realize I am not a woman, let's face it society holds women to more stringent ideals than men. Thus I am posting this image of Stone.

The reality is not everyone looks this fantastic, or will, but we should all aspire to do better for ourselves in all areas of our lives. 

Sharon is a shining example of someone who has been through the ringer and still came out on top (she had a stroke people, remember)

"Vanity" Thy Name Is Woman

Beautiful
Vanity

Denise Matthews best known as Vanity has passed away at 57. While most people know her as the Prince protege who fronted the grrrrrrrl group Vanity 6, I most fondly remember her as a charismatic presence on the silver screen.

"Yes" I would see movies because Vanity was in them. Why else would I have checked out The Last Dragon & Action Jackson?! 52 Pick-Up had other reasons to see it, but Vanity was still one of them.

It's a shame that she had moved on from Prince before Purple Rain as she was the intended star of it. Instead we got stuck with Apollonia. While PR is a good film, I am sure Vanity would have made it much better.

While the cause of her death has yet to be revealed suffice it to say Denise was not of good health in her latter years. 

The nice thing about stars when they pass away is while their physical energy will be missed, their spirit lives on through the work they left behind.

I will be checking out 52 Pick-Up again this weekend.

Chrissy Teigen "But It Is, You Idiot"

Chrissy Teigen
Pregnant & Planned Parenthood Supporter 
Props to one Ms. Chrissy Teigen, who by the way is pregnant with her first child by husband John Legend in her support of Planned Parenthood and not backing off from the haters.

Wake up people! Planned Parenthood is about women's health issues, while "yes" they do perform abortions but that is merely a small part of what happens there percentage wise. Oh, and PS, sometimes abortions are performed for the Mother's health and survival FYI.

Also since when is a woman's uterus property of the U.S. Government?

Her is a transcript via E!Online of her Twitter conversation with people who called her out:

"Every time s--t like this happens, john and I immediately make another donation to planned parenthood," she wrote.

She drew many negative and sarcastic responses and got into heated arguments, which carried over into Saturday morning.

"Maybe you should make a donation to the Colorado Springs Police Department," one person wrote.

"it might seem insane, but it's possible to support two things at once. I suggest you do the same," Teigen replied.

"Happy to see you support. Just wanted to make sure you remembered people lost their lives today," another person added.

"I don't need you to check where my feelings and mind are," Teigen responded. "I'm an adult. I'm good. Thank you." 

Then there was some name-calling.

"@chrissyteigen remember how this wasn't about PP? But no need to correct yourself with facts, that doesn't fit your agenda," another user wrote.

"But it is, you idiot," she replied. 

And there was some more naughty language.

"It would be wonderful if you could promote this as quickly as you promoted donating to PP," a user wrote, linking to a crowdfunding page raising money for the family of the police officer who was killed in the shooting.

"Oh f--k off," Teigen said. "Nothing is ever enough for you, is it? How about you donate?"
The unfollows followed.

"Extremely fine with any unfollows," she tweeted. "Would prefer it over your ignorant rants but I'm prepared either way. Nothing I haven't seen before."

And when it got really petty, husband John Legend got involved.

"I am a published author who typed in a hurry. Focus less on gramerical errors and more on @PPFA killing kids," one person wrote, addressing Teigen and another user.

"Gramerical," Teigen joked.

"@chrissyteigen That's an American grammatical error, which means it's actually correct no matter what," Legend replied.

Sandy Zacky "I Wish You Love"

50 Plus Years Of Marriage: Sandy & Her Husband Ron Taken On Her Birthday This Year
"I wish you bluebirds in the spring, to give your heart a song to sing,
And then a kiss, but more than this, i wish you love" - I Wish You Love

Nothing says love like a fifty plus year marriage and that's what Entertain Me's resident chanteuse Sandy with a "Y" not "E" Zacky has.

In 2007 Sandy with her singing partner Mike Clifford recorded an album Love is Everything. A compilation of songs about what else? Love! Including a duet by herself & Clifford on the title track and a solo rendition by Ms. Z of I Wish You Love.

Sandy has this to say to all of you on this Valentine's Day: "Whatever your plans and wherever you are I wish you all love, health and happiness, Happy Valentine's Day, Love Sandy." 

Thanks Sandy, back at ya!

The Strange Familiar + "Pretty Little Liars" = An Awesome 2013...!

The Strange Familiar
After having their haunting hit song "Unwanted" featured on one of my favorite shows "Pretty Little Liars" last year, one of my favorite bands The Strange Familiar is back on the show with "Alibi", "Unwanted", and "Runaway Heart" on Season 3 of Pretty Little Liars on January 29, February 12, and March 12 episodes.
The songs are taken from their debut album "Chasing Shadows" - as a huge fan of both this  news is rockin' ! 
Last nights episode featured "Alibi" which is sure be be another hit for TSF.
I checked in with my friend and lead singer for the band Kira Leyden Andrea and asked her to give a shout out to all of you PLL and TSF fans as to what five things she wishes all of you in 2013.
Pretty Little Liars
Take it away Kira....!
1) Love - what's life without love? Love for our families, friends, our significant other, God, for all those who need compassion and a heping hand, and love for life!
2) Health - we often take the little things for granted - like being able to get out of bed in the morning - to see the sun rise - to share a meal with friends and family. But when things like these are taken away, we realize they are not so little after all. I wish for everyone to be blessed with good health of mind, body and spirit in 2013.
3) Peace - I know it may sound like a cliche pageant answer, but I wish for peace in 2013. Peace of mind - peace in our families, peace in our nation, peace between all nations.
4) Laughter - life can be heavy, so I wish that laughter will help lift everyone up in 2013.
5) Hope - for everyone going through a tough time, for anyone in pain... We all have our struggles, but hope is what keeps us going.

Thanks Kira for your well wishes to everyone....and being part of a band and a show that makes 2013 an already better year than 2012.
