C'mon Barbie!

Standing Tall
Margot Robbie
as
Barbie!!!

OK, I admit the ONLY reason the Barbie movie was on my radar remotely was the talent involved. "Yes" I tend to pay attention when Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling, Greta Gerwig & Noah Baumbach decide to combine forces.

Yet, I was still skeptical, I mean honestly what can you really do with the premise that wouldn't be ridiculous?!

Well even though I'm still not sure what they are doing with the actual film in terms of premise, after seeing the teaser trailer that dropped yesterday...sing me up, I'm there!!!

C'mon Barbie Let's Go Party...Hit the teaser below...

Ave Maria

Remember Mike Clifford? He was a Teen Idol in the 60's best known for his signature song Close To Cathy.

Did you know he is still making music? Well he is, he has a wonderful rendition of the Christmas staple Ave Maria as a gift to all of his fans and music lovers.

At this point I am betting you are wanting to hear it, well get it after the jump!

Ho, ho, ho and all that jazz...

Michael's Musings

 Interpretations Welcome
Michael Shinafelt

So yesterday I took myself to lunch for my Birthday (which isn't until Sunday, but I am otherwise engaged then) at my local Mexican Restaurant Casita Del Campo, which has been in the Silverlake neighborhood for 60 years!!!

Thus the Christmas themed selfie you all got with my Musings today Minions, yeah slowly but surely I'm getting there. Call me the little engine and carry on!

Deviation from the norm will be punished unless it is exploitable, the more you know...

Let's change the term "anal bleaching" to "changing your ring tone" shall we? We Shall!!!

Reminder, do one small thing for yourself today. Like I did yesterday by taking myself to lunch

Hump Day & Chill

Santa Baby
Santa Claus & Marilyn Monroe

All of you know by now that I am a huge Marilyn Monroe fan! Also I am aware that perhaps I need to put in more effort on the "Christmas Spirit" thing.

Thus we are going to Hump Day & Chill with this whimsical piece of art featuring who else?! Marilyn Monroe & Santa Claus.

An image too cool for yule.

Hey, there really isn't too much else to add, you have the whole 411 on why this is my Hump Day & Chill gift from me to my Minions.

FYI only fourteen days left, and I have yet to start doing anything with regard to the whole to do. Perhaps I need to Hump Day & Christmas Card??? LOL!!!

Bonnie and Clyde

Tis the season for classic cinema (say "classic cinema" three times fast, I dare ya) - Thus I bequeath to you, straight outta Jay's Classic Movie Blog: Bonnie and Clyde.

Hey, it was 1967 when this groundbreaking film came out and I need to revisit it as I watched it when I was too young for it to really land in my underdeveloped mind. I believe it is currently on Netflix, unless it isn't any longer...

Also the two leads, Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway are terrific eye candy.
