Just Because...Polka Dots

Dotty
Sarah Paulson

Just Because it's the weekend, Just Because I'm feeling whimsical and Just Because it's Sarah Paulson I bring you polka dots!

"Yes" polka dots are my and Sarah's gift to you the first weekend of April 2019 - Why? Why not, I ask? Polka Dots are fun in fact I had a polka dot shirt that was the same color and pattern as Sarah's dress once, except it was a shirt. My shirt/her dress/my shirt/her dress...get it?

Thus in my whimsical stupor I leave you wanting nothing more than to see the world through polka dot glasses today. I'm such a simplistic cooch.

Mic Drop!

Film Buff Friday: Lords of Chaos

Lords of Chaos

Based On Truth and Lies:

The Story Of The Birth Of True Norwegian Black Metal 

and Its Most Notorious Practitioners

Starring: Rory Culkin, Emory Cohen, Sky Ferreira, Jack Kilmer, Valter Skarsgård 

Unobstructed View and MVD Entertainment Group are pleased to announce the release of Lords Of Chaos on Blu-ray / DVD combo and DVD on May 28th in the US and May 21st in Canada. It's a thrilling coming of age horror/drama, weaving together rock'n'roll, youth, love, and death through an incredibly dark story. Renowned Swedish director Jonas Åkerlund (Polar) brings his notorious visual aesthetic to the film, alongside ground-breaking performances from Rory Culkin (Succession, Signs, You Can Count On Me) and Emory Cohen (The Place Beyond the Pines, Brooklyn). Inspired by a true story, Lords Of Chaos made its debut at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival before going on to impress audiences at Fantastic Fest, Beyond Fest, Fantasia Festival, and more... The Lords of Chaos Oslo, 1987: Seventeen-year-old Euronymous (Rory Culkin) is determined to escape his idyllic Scandinavian hometown and create "true Norwegian black metal" with his band, MAYHEM. He's joined by equally fanatical youths - Dead (Jack Kilmer) and Varg (Emory Cohen). Believing that they're on the cusp of a musical revolution, the group gets even darker, driven by the black metal dogma to spread evil.  They begin burning down churches throughout the countryside and stealing tombstones for their record store. But when the press catches up with them and Euronymous takes more credit than he's earned for the group's violent acts, Varg, fresh out of jail, arranges a dark encounter to settle the score and ultimately determine who the darkest black metal musician is... The Blu-ray / DVD combo contains the unrated version of the film (118 min) and bonus features (11 directors teasers and trailers). The single DVD includes the rated version (116 min) and no bonus features.

Michael's Musings

Does This Ankh Make My Butt Look Huge?
Michael Shinafelt

With all the craziness in the world why don't we take some time today to simply breathe. Ready set, exhale, release, exhale, release. OK, back to our regularly scheduled scuttlebutt - you know you want it -

Congrats to Lori Lightfoot the first Female Lesbian African-American Mayor ever in Chicago. Say that three times fast!

Is it just me or does anyone else think of the Cow on Pee Wee's Playhouse whenever anyone refers to Luann de Lesseps as "The Countess" 

The Bearded Lady has spoken

When buying real estate I often take into consideration that the Devil might be coming over 

Crazy Boxing Guy is real

Umami's Truffle Burger is da bomb, and so are their Cheesy Tots!!!

Listen to the wind blow

Go caulk a sky roof

For some reason I watched the 1980 Prom Night with Jamie Lee Curtis on YouTube  - Yeah, there's that...

When in a quandary I think to myself, what would Jason Statham do? Then engage accordingly...

(Cock)tails in Vega$

Would You Like A (Cock)tail?
Lisa Vanderpump & The Chippendales Dancers 

With all of the buzz about tonight's episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, you know the one where Lisa Vanderpump and Kyle Richards have a screaming match and Lisa's husband Ken joins the chorus. I thought a happy image of Lisa Vanderpump was in order today. The woman has been through a lot this past year people cut her some slack!

It's no surprise that Vanderpump is quite happy at the opening of her latest venture Vanderpump Cocktail Garden in Vega$ being as she certainly is surrounded by some cock & tail. "Yes" Lisa V. is flanked by Chippendales Dancers. You know those guys who strip, can I get an Hallelujah and a fist bump? Of course I can!

Not only that, but the fact that it's home is the world famous Caesar's Palace also must be putting some pep in her step.

Cheers to a diamonds and rose' sort of day, the calm before tonight's RHOBH sh!t storm if you will. "Yes" we will and thank you very much, Michael has left the building -

Just Because...You're Horny, Or Not

Gentlemen Prefer Blondes
Zac Efron

Just Because he has blonde hair, Just Because he's wearing a blue suit & Just Because he has some hot scruff - Gentlemen, Ladies...I present to you Zac Efron @ The Beach Bum premiere in Hollywood!

Seldom does my mind wander to the younger set, I tend to like dudes my own advanced age. Yet something tells me Zac is where it's at. I mean, he like totally has a musical background and such, thus I am willing to bet he has a vast knowledge of things of yore and we could communicate for hours, while he was picking things up off the floor.

Here is a breakdown of the film:

"A rebellious stoner named Moondog lives life by his own rules."

A) Aren't all movie stoners name Monndog???

B) This is written and directed by Harmony Korine

C) If you are asking who Harmony is then F#ck off

Yeah, this pic not only draws my attention because my Boy Toy fixation is in it. It is from auteur Harmony Korine, who wrote and  an explosive (at the time) film called Kids in 1995.

He has kept on keeping with his most recent effort behind the camera as a writer and director being Spring Breakers with an extremely high profile young female cast - Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens & Ashley Benson anyone? Anyone???

Thus I am intrigued....
