Today's message is brought to you by the state of Florida and it's "Governor" Ron DeSantis. Guess I've made my position on the matter abundantly clear.

OK, let's Thursday Minions!!! 

Robert Pattinson has proven once and for all that vampires really do turn into bats 

Facebook is like living with a bunch of six year olds...six year olds with alcohol and no bedtime. Oh, and whores, so many whores. 

What face do you make when your maid doesn't bring you your hand mirror fast enough???

31 weeks until Halloween Ends...can't wait!!!

Beer is now cheaper than gas, drink, don't drive

Saw The Batman and haven't stopped thinking about it since, the more you know...

If you think I'm saying something about you on here, I am

Listen, I have something to tell you...you already know (it's not as cryptic as you think)

Woman Crush of the Week - Pamela Anderson who will be making her Broadway debut as Roxie Hart in Chicago, go Pam!!!

Trivia Time: Christian Bale based his character Patrick Bateman in American Psycho on a David Letterman interview featuring Tom Cruise in 1999. Bale states "Tom Cruise had this vey intense friendliness with nothing behind the eyes"

What comes out of Florida besides Meth and Serial Killers that I can boycott? Asking for a friend

A night to remember, a morning to regret???

Hump Day & Chill

The Batman
Robert Pattinson

I have a tale to tell, March 6th 2022. The Place: Grauman's Chinese Theater in Hollywood, CA The time: 10:20 ayem. What happened: I saw The Batman.

So this means I am gonna Hump Day & Chill myself to Robert Pattinson as The Batman.

Honestly I never really paid Pattinson much mind. Especially with those Twilight movies (cough, cough) 

But then something truly miraculous happened, Bobby as those of us familiar with him refer to him as. Grew into who he was as a grown ass man. Well now Pattison, why don't you come up and see me sometime...

The Batman blew my mind and in no small part due to my newest man crush Robert Pattinson. "Yes" little Robert is now big Robert and it's real, not to mention spectacular!

Wanna join me in a Hump Day & Chill to Bobby? I think I know THAT answer...

I am vengeance, or riddle me this, that and something else!

Something In The Way...

Grauman's Chinese Theater

Yesterday I went and saw The Batman at the historic Chinese Theater in Hollywood, IMAX style. 

Batman is my jam and IMO this was the best Batman movie ever! Robert Pattinson is the best movie Batman ever! 

There I said it. Now on to the important stuff. While I have been to movies in a theater last year etc. I really wasn't prepared for how emotional I got being in the iconic Chinese again. 

From the hand prints in the cement, to the amazing architecture inside. You can feel the history of this shrine to movie going leap into your soul.

A little bit dramatic? Not really, accurate to my feelings, it is. 

I mean I even took this photo of Marilyn Monroe's hand and foot prints (yes I had seen them before) I was feeling so nostalgic. 

Sally Forth and smile like you mean it, it's Monday!!!

Here's Looking At You

Pucker Up!
Michelle Pfeiffer

How has everyone's week been? Mine been pretty good, today I'm going to see The Batman at the Chinese in Hollywood IMAX style and I can't wait!

Being as it is the close of the weekend I felt it  called for some levity and also something that is reflective of how I woke up feeling this morning (hey I had a good dream, what can I say???) 

Thus when I saw this quite silly photo of Michelle Pfeiffer I knew this was it, this was what captured it all starting my day off. 

Oddly I have never seen Michelle act this goofy for a photo ever! I never even new she posed for photos like this. She usually looks so serious or smiling, but never downright off the wall.

So if Michelle can do it...

Bend it like Michelle, here's looking at you!!!

Pretty In Pink Plaid

In The Pink
Amanda Seyfried

When what to my wandering eyes did appear, but Amanda Seyfried heading into Good Morning America in NYC in Pink Plaid...

Maybe I need to get out more often but I've never seen a Pink Plaid suit before, let alone seen it on someone who wears it as well as Ms. Seyfried.

What a sight for my tired eyes this Saturday in the ayem. Something to put a little fun in my and your day.

After all don't each and every one of us need some pretty right here, right now?

Surrender The Pink!

Film Buff Friday: An American Werewolf In London

"A horror film that packs a wallop"  - 

Janet Maslin, The New York Times

One of the greatest directors of the 1980s, John Landis (The Blues Brothers, Trading Places), expertly combines macabre horror with dark humor in the lycanthropic classic, An American Werewolf in London. American tourists David (David Naughton) and Jack (Griffin Dunne) are savaged by an unidentified vicious animal whilst hiking on the Yorkshire Moors. David awakes in a London hospital to find his friend dead and his life in disarray. Retiring to the home of a beautiful nurse (Jenny Agutter, Walkabout) to recuperate, he soon experiences disturbing changes to his mind and body, undergoing a full-moon transformation that will unleash terror on the streets of the capital... An American Werewolf in London had audiences howling with laughter and recoiling in terror upon its cinema release. Landis' film has gone on to become one of the most important horror films of its decade, rightly lauded for its masterful set-pieces, uniquely unsettling atmosphere and Rick Baker's truly ground-breaking, Oscar-winning special makeup effects. Now newly restored and presented with an abundance of extra features, this big beast of horror can be devoured as never before...
