Hump Day & Chill

Having A Kiki
Jason, Ghostface & Freddy

This photo of three icons of horror is awesome, whoever created it deserves a four screams and a machete.

I titled this photo, how could I not? Thus today we are going to Hump Day & Chill to what I call: Scream It's Friday On Elm Street. 

Now the beauty of this weeks Hump Day & Chill is I'm sure we can all come up with a clever title for a photo that features Jason, Freddy & Ghostface.

"Yes" it's an interactive HD&C for all you horror fans out there, like myself.

So get to it you ghouls and send me those clever titles that I know you can all think of, right here, right now...

1,2 Freddy's coming for you and he's bringing Jason and Ghostface along for extra Hump Day & Chill terror!!!

Spotless

I Got No Spots

Behold the rarest of the rare, a Spotless Giraffe born at a Tennessee Zoo. It is believed to currently be the only anywhere on the planet.

The last time one was recorded as being born was in 1972 in Tokyo.  

Well Brights Zoo is currently looking to give their new bundle of joy a name. They are holding a contest on their Facebook page. If you would like to "give her a name" I have included the link at the end of this post to do so.

You all might be wondering why I posted about a giraffe. Because it's rare and my Mom who passed away not too long ago loved giraffes and would have enjoyed seeing this photo. 

I remember when we went to the Los Angeles Zoo when she visited once and we watched the giraffes for many minutes she was captivated by them.

Monday Motivation

It's the first day of the work week again, time for some Monday Motivation Minions (say that three times fast.)

This particular quote straight outta Blake Lively is something I've been putting into action for a while now. If for some reason my day starts to go off the rails I stop, take a deep breath and say a variation of what she says, but essentially the same thing.

Guess What?!?! It works, you can change your mindset with a simple choice. "Yes" it really is that easy. 

Thus the collective mission of all of you is to make Monday August 21, 2023 one of the many best days of your life.

Bend it like Blake and Me!

Carlito's Way

Academy Award winner Al Pacino reunites with his Scarface director Brian De Palma for this tough-minded thriller about a gangster looking for salvation down the mean streets of 1970s New York City. Gangster Carlito Brigante (Pacino) gets released early from prison thanks to the work of his lawyer, Kleinfeld (Sean Penn, Milk). Vowing to go straight, Carlito nonetheless finds dangers waiting for him in the outside world. As Carlito works toward redemption, Kleinfeld sinks into cocaine-fueled corruption. When Kleinfeld crosses the mob, Carlito gets caught in the crossfire and has to face a hard choice: remain loyal to the friend who freed him or protect a new life with the woman he loves (Penelope Ann Miller, The Relic). With enemies closing in from all sides, Carlito must find his way before it's too late. Also starring John Leguizamo (Land of the Dead), Luis Guzmán (Magnolia), and Viggo Mortensen (The Lord of the Rings), Carlito's Way has come to be regarded as among De Palma's most accomplished films. A hard-hitting gangster noir laced with romance and melancholy, powerful performances and nail-biting suspense.

"Afraid To Love"

David Archuleta

David Archuleta continues his recent onslaught of new music with the official release of the brand new music video HERE for his latest single, “Afraid To Love” HERE

“This song is about celebrating and getting people to dance. I wanted something that you could hear at a dance club or to get you jamming late at night in your house.  I’ve been learning to accept myself as I am and to not be afraid anymore of what people think of me. Letting go of any hate and declaring to everyone I’m not going to fear what people think of me for loving whoever I love.”

And, working with director Brad Hammer on the video concept was truly a new experience for me and so fun  incorporating super vibrant colors and dance elements into my video, something that I have shied away from in the past.”   states David.

 

David recently spoke about what’s on the horizon musically with Entertainment Weekly – “Up” it’s kind of like the prelude. It’s meant to tie where I’m coming from, my past, my history — but it’s also coming from a place where I was at the bottom of that, at the end of that path. I’ve lived out the end of this, and I don’t know where else to go. This is continuing down a very dark place, and I need to get out of it now. So, this is me saying, I’m accepting myself as I am, as a queer person, and letting myself be seen, every aspect of myself. And I’m just letting all of me be seen now. And not being so afraid of hiding myself and being afraid of what people will say if people find out. I’m just like, you know what, now they know! And now it’s just moving up, and I’m gonna have fun. There’s no need to hide anything anymore — just have a good time.  There are some really fun songs that are gonna get people dancing as well, that I’m really excited about. And there are still some classic ballads. I feel like these songs are more about love, something that I always shied away from before because it was something I didn’t relate to. I don’t think I ever really experienced love the way everyone talks about in songs and novels and all that. I’m talking about what it’s like for me to experience it for the first time really and fully. I’m excited to share that, in fun ways, dance ways, and also in ballad-y ways. I’m excited to share this new chapter and these new songs with everyone leading to a full album release later this year.

Current Mood

Today I am feeling the slogan on legendary Porn Star Jenna Jameson's T-Shirt: "Hey, I  Know your lane sucks, but I'm gonna nee you to stay in it" 

No truer words were spoken right here, right now.

Also I am giving no further explanation on this Friday August 18th 2023. 

You know who you are and if you don't you'll find out, soon.

Michael's Musings

I'm Perfectly Incomplete, I'm Still Working On My Masterpiece
Michael Shinafelt

As the years turn one of the things you really understand is you take things step by step. I for one have never colored inside the lines. Patience with yourself is a virtue, you don't have to have it all figured out at once, FYI no one does.

Give yourself the gift of time, it all comes together the way it's supposed, trust me with this, it's the one subject matter I have expert experience with. Sally fourth!

Hey, I know your lane sucks, but I'm still going to need you to stay in it

Imahoe is not an Indian tribe, the more you know

We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that stupid people won't be offended

Hey Mercury, can you not right now?!?!
