Gutters

John Stamos recently turned 63, and to celebrate he took a shirtless selfie (above) and posted it to his Instagram, naturally.

I for one would not mind filling those gutters, how about you???

Think about it, but not too much...

The Crying Game

Stephen Rea & Jaye Davidson
"The Crying Game"

"I know all there is to know about the crying game

I've had my share of the crying game
First there are kisses (Kisses)
Then there are sighs (So sad)
And then, before you know where you are
You're sayin' goodbye" - The Crying Game, Boy George 

Being an independent cinema goer I attended opening weekend of The Crying Game in a theatre completely unaware of the plot twist.

Was I caught off guard? "Yes" I believe my internal reaction at the time was that of shock and awe. 

I believe it is time for me to revisit this film at some point and reassess what my take is on it today. 

TGIF!

Michael's Musings

I've Got A Dirty Mind
Michael Shinafelt

"You stare are you looking at me

Or just an image from your colour tv
Dollar signs and neon lights
Shine on the people every night
I'm going down to the river to wash my sins away
But they'll be back tomorrow anyway
I've got a dirty mind
I've got a dirty mind
Take a look at yourself
I've got imagination
I got hallucinations
Do you want some?" - Dirty Mind, Shakespear's Sister 

I shaved my balls for this?! "Yes" this is for me to know and you to never find out. That's the way it goes!

POV: If you love someone let them go, if they come back, it means no one liked them, so let them go again...

On a personal note I am enjoying Stassi's new "reality show" House Of Stassi, especially how it breaks the fourth wall

It's going to be a mere 87 degrees in Los Angeles today, down from 91 yesterday, ugh!

Almost quit drinking wine, but then I thought about the people who work for the wineries in order to feed their families...Cheers!

Does anyone know of someone who does witch stuff? Asking for a friend

Saw Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma last Friday. Run in your underwear to see it!!!

"Anybody know how that a$$hole grew his ear back" - Vincent van Gogh 

Woman Crush of the Week - Hannah Einbinder of "Hacks" fame who looks quite fetching in her underwear in "Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma" 

As you mature, you realize nothing is ever a loss. It's either redirection, protection, or a realization.

RIP - Hayden Panettiere your portrayals of Kirby Reed and Juliette Barnes will always be iconic to me

Does anyone share my love of jalapeno peppers on pretty much everything?

It's cinnamon, not fireball, that's all...

90 plus degree temperatures and over 50% humidity is why we can't have yoga outside anymore. First world problems.

Let's talk more first world problems here -

"Heavy Healing"

Fans of Heavy Metal, Hardcore Punk and the like have been told since they were little, whether it be by their parents, teachers or religious leaders, that these genres are "not music," but noise. Each has been labeled as disorderly, violent, and detrimental to the physical and mental health of young people.

Be that as it may, many who have been affected by a wide variety of enervating conditions have come to rely on heavy artists to successfully assist them through the worst of times such as severe illness, weighty medical conditions, and mental health challenges.

Heavy Healing seeks to dispel rumors and shine a much-deserved bright light on the healing powers of aggressive music. You will hear directly and candidly from artists, fans, and industry types - remarkable individuals who have leaned on (or even become) "controversial" music-makers in order to inspire and be inspired through the grueling process of recovery from the likes of cancer, anxiety, and depression, strokes, heart attacks, cerebral palsy, blood diseases, diabetes, and HIV/AIDS, to name a few.

Appearing in Heavy Healing are Jesse Leach (Killswitch Engage), Lou Koller (Sick of It All), Jaret Reddick (Bowling for Soup), Mike IX Williams (EyeHateGod), Vinnie Stigma (Agnostic Front), Eddie "Sutton" Pomponio (Leeway), Jesse Malin (Heart Attack, D-Generation), Jimi Hazel (24-7 Spyz), Michael Alago (A&R - Metallica, White Zombie), Michael "Kaves" McLeer (Lordz of Brooklyn), Jimmy G. Drescher (Murphy's Law), Brian "Mitts" Daniels (ex-Madball), Adam Blake (H2O), as well as one of HH's filmmakers, and the inspiration for this documentary, music business veteran Seth Abrams, among others.

Tip Of The Day: Stay In Your Lane

Saw this on Instagram this morning whilst scrolling, straight outta Iman's page. It resonated with me and since sharing is caring here it is!

Stay in your own lane and mind your own business is what everyone should do. Unfortunately we live in a world where others scapegoat, project and deflect their sh!t onto those around them rather than accept responsibility for their own actions.

Be the hare you want to see in the world.

That's all...have a groovy week!!!
