Fencing
 |
| Fencing Chris Mason & Sasha Pieterse |
Here it is peeps the current image of my eye a BTS selfie of Sasha Pieterse aka Alison Dilaurentis & Chris Mason whose character Nolan Hotchkiss bites it by, you go it, getting impaled on a fence, fencing, at the end of the premiere episode of Pretty Little Liars: The Perfectionists.
Consider this definition of "fencing" my contribution to the Urban Dictionary - since I have to look up so many of today's references there I felt like adding to the already muddled waters for some more WTF? moments and collective Google searches among the masses.
Love this image and really love the show, thus my work here is done.

Monday Motivation
 |
| Jacked! Zac Efron |
While I do not want to get as jacked as Boy Zac, Daddy is on his own "Jacked Journey" - say that three time fast. "Yes" minions I added Weightlifting to my repertoire of Spin, Yoga & Abs classes and what a feeling!!!
I honestly remember not really caring for the act of getting jacked when I was younger thus when I was recruited to do so recently by my Toy, there was some reluctance to do so on my part, But my Toy was persistent and I caved, he guided me on which weights I should do and told me what body parts I was doing each for specifically. Everyone should have a Toy as a guide.
So guess what? I am loving this new addition to my life, in fact I find engaging in getting jacked quite addicting.
It's Monday peeps, now get your booty motivated!

R.E.M. The Early Years
Begin the Begin: R.E.M.'s Early Years
Coming via Verse Chorus Press on May 14
Excerpt HERE courtesy of Dangerous Minds
Ever wonder about R.E.M.'s early years? Well wonder no more!!!
|
Begin the Begin is the first biography of R.E.M. wholly researched and written since they disbanded in 2011. It offers by far the most detailed account of the group's formative years--their early lives, their first encounters with one another, their legendary debut show, early tours in the back of a van, initial recordings, their shrewdly paced rise to fame.
The people and places of the American South are crucial to the R.E.M. story in ways much more complex and interesting than have previously been presented, claims Robert Dean Lurie; he explores the myriad ways in which the band's adopted hometown of Athens, Georgia--and the South in general--shaped its members and the character of their art. The South is much more than the background here; it plays a major role: the creative ferment that erupted in Athens and gripped many of its young inhabitants in the late 1970s and early '80s drew on regional traditions of outsider art and general cultural out-thereness, and gave rise to a free-spirited music scene that produced the B-52's and Pylon, as well as laying the ground for R.E.M.'s subsequent breakout success.
Lurie has tracked down and interviewed numerous figures in the band's history who were underrepresented in, or absent from, earlier biographies--they contribute previously undocumented stories and cast a fresh light on the familiar narrative.Advance Praise for Begin the Begin:
"Meticulously researched and always elegantly written, Begin the Begin is a critical but glorious tribute to its subject."
--Christopher Sandford, author of Bowie: Loving the Alien
"Hope, yearning, and fear are visceral here, and the portrait painted is of something joyous, mad, and brilliant all at once."
--David Guterson, author of Snow Falling on Cedars
"This beautiful, joyful book is more than a biography--it's a deep exploration of art and its bloody relationship with business, a meditation on the South, on youth and love, on family and fame, and an intelligent return to the soundtrack of the 1980s."
--Rebecca Lee, author of Bobcat and Other Stories

Just Because...Polka Dots
 |
| Dotty Sarah Paulson |
"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...
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.
