Pillow Talk

A few weeks ago I was flipping channels and stumbled across an old movie made in 1959 to be exact, that I had heard of, but never seen. That movie would be the romantic comedy Pillow Talk starring Rock Hudson and Doris Day.

It was, well since it was made before I was born how about using a corny adjective: Delightful!

What's that? You've never heard of Pillow Talk, Rock Hudson or Doris Day? Say what?! Well prepared to get schooled I tell you what. Click on the link to my buddy Jay Jacobson's Classic Movie Blog below. Jay is an expert on old movies and the stars of them, he also includes juicy behind the scenes details as well.

Happy Anniversary, Drunk

With the Pandemic version of the Golden Globe Awards going down yesterday evening a lot of celebrities took a stroll down memory lane on Social Media. That's correct they posted pics of The Ghost of Golden Globe Awards past.

So I am giving my favorite Globes of the Past Award to Chrissy Teigen. Leave it to Chrissy, if she ever wants to do a reality show, she now has a title. To post the most self deprecating and funniest post from years gone by.

There's nothing more that I can say about this memory, as she has really said it all.

For those about to drink, like Chrissy, we salute you!

Golden Globe Awards

The 78th Golden Globe Awards

Today is the 78th Golden Globe Awards to be held in Beverly Hills, CA. Being a local living in Los Angeles we get these banners on lamp posts plastered about town.

Tina Fey & Amy Poehler are back as hosts, it should be interesting to see how they stage the show. That's one of the odder things I have enjoyed about the pandemic is how they pull off Award Shows. It sure brings out the Entertainment Industries creative side.

So kick back, grab some snacks and enjoy to quote the banner above it's "What the globe needs right now" - Cheers to that!

Reunited

We Are Family
Lady Gaga & Children

With the world being all sorts of crazy, perhaps the weirdest story of the week was the kidnapping of Lady Gaga's French Bulldogs. (Sorry CPAC, your no longer winning the crazy game. You are simply boring loons at this point for me.)

Gaga and her dogs have been reunited, this took me to my happy place. While it is unclear what the motivation was for the dognapping (I will be curious to find out) happy endings these days are always a welcome change of pace.

(CNN) The two French bulldogs violently stolen from Lady Gaga's dog walker have been returned safely, the Los Angeles Police Department said Friday.

A woman, who wasn't named, met the entertainer's staff and detectives at the Olympic Community Police Station with the animals at around 6 p.m. PT, the LAPD said in a statement.

"The woman found the dogs and reached out to Lady Gaga's staff to return them," the statement said. "The woman's identity and the location the dogs were found will remain confidential due to the active criminal investigation and for her safety."

The LAPD also updated the condition of the dog walker, saying he was "stable" with injuries that were not life-threatening.

It's National Tell A Fairy Tale Day!

Ready For The Ball
Zendaya 

"Once upon a time there was a Dancing Chicken that made toast with the silhouette of Hello Kitty on it..."    

In case you haven't guessed it's National Tell A Fairy Tale Day and telling them obviously is not my forte. Thus I will leave that to the experts like The Brothers Grimm or Hans Christen Andersen.

To help commemorate the day we have Zendaya on hand dressed as Cinderella at the Met Gala. 

What the world needs now is a good fairy tale, a happy ending so to speak. I don't know about you but that's what I am going to do today. Immerse myself in a good old fashioned escapism.

Join me and Zendaya, in a world of fantasy and fun, won't you?

It's OK to check out ever so often, so be good to yourself 😊

"Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
Turn and face the strange" - David Bowie

This week has brought about some major changes that are a coming. While they won't be immediate they are a sure thing. How one handles certain changes is how it effects them. I'm looking forward to what transpires in the near future.

Saw I Care A Lot on Netflix, did I like it? Sort of, while I wasn't bored it definitely needed to be more focused and have some sort of arc for the character played by Rosamund Pike 

And now a French lesson from Josephine Baker...

Remember everything's bigger in Texas, especially the incompetence 

Daft Punk = No More

Weather has delayed Willie, the more you know

Nasty, dumb goons, oh my!

Did you know? Admission to Heaven is 90% determined by spelling and grammar

Isn't it sad a rotisserie chicken's whole life is only worth 5 dollars?

Woman Crush of the Week - Eiza Gonzalez from I Care A Lot, do you have to ask why after seeing it, or the photo above? I think not!

If asked to define a word, never add an unknown one to describe it to the mix

Looking for your mask while it's hanging on my ear, is the new looking for your phone while you are holding it

I sit and drink tea, not Pennyroyal Tea, just plain black tea

Wine is the nectar of the Gods - fight me on this

I've got 99 problems, but you won't be one

Hump Day & Chill

Do You Want To Build A Snowman?

Today there is going to be more "Chill" than the usual Hump Day & Chill. Why you may ask? Well see this man all bundled up in the snow? Yeah, the hunky one above, that's the one. He is going to be peeling those layers of clothing off gradually until, you guessed it he is 100% wearing nothing in the freezing snow! How's that for cajones?

Is it worth braving the cold to view this striptease, well IMHO "Yes!" the end result will definitely turn up the heat and thaw your chilled loins for Hump Day.

So click on the link below to visit the Snowman at Tye Brigg's Favorite Hunks & Other Things.

Hump Day & Chill, indeed...
