Remember When...


Loving this today, it makes me remember when I was in my 20's. That's correct Minions the formative years. You remember that time you went to band camp??? Anyway...

This was my go to type of thing when I was stressed out I would find something fun and completely distracting. Oh, I beleve you thought I was going to address the sex part. That's for my book, can't put it all out there on a blog.

Bringing me to today in my 50's my stress relief is yoga. Hitting it today at Hollywood Forever Cemetery. Then heading home to take care of business and chill.

As for the abovementioned??? Yeah, that still has been known to happen...

Lift Your Spirits

Need A Lift?!

It's another one of those days they refer to with disdain as: Monday, yeah it's here again on time and always a drag.

Thus here is something to lift your spirits, or at least lift Donna Summer's spirits. "Yes" Donna's spirits are being lifted by the one and only Arnold Schwarzenegger! Talk about a totally different kind of high!

I stumbled across this photo on the WWW and it was something that I had never seen before nor would have thought existed. So it can also lift your spirits as a piece of newly discovered pop culture.

Here is this point in time we are all engaging in together and aren't you happy? You should be it's fun to be part of a collective vibe...

Now tell me why you don't like Mondays again???

Michael's Musings

Ooops, I Didn't Know I Couldn't Talk About Sex
Michael Shinafelt


Let's talk about sex baby! Ha! Now that I have your attention let's have a Kiki!

It's the year 2024 and people are still having sex. Guess what?! People are still acting like Puritans and judging others on the things they don't do.

My advice? Tell them to get their own life and fall in line because as the old addage goes: What other people think about me is none of my business...

I like women into sex! You go grrrrl!!!

A black woman of the streets walked by me the other day in Hollywood screaming at the top of yourl lungs: I would love to work with Dakota Fanning

About 8 inches makes June the wettest in History

Remember pants on the ground?! Well now you have been reminded

Sweetheart, you can’t go listening to every f**king little voice that runs through your head. You’ll go nuts.

Don't let someone who never went anywhere take you there with them, that's all

VP Tim Walz!

The Republican ticket is basically the people you avoid at Family Reunions


Woman Crush of the Week - Simone Biles winning three gold and one silver at the Olympics!

My golden rule: Mind your own damned business!!!

It's the end of an era my favorite brunch lunch spot around the corner from me on Fountain Ave, Square One Diner is closed after 16 years in biz 😢

OK, I'm going to say it: Sharks aren't eating enough people

No I'm not sorry and I have no regrets

Time to celebrate life, Happy Thursday

Hump Day & Chill

Virginia Madsen
&
Friends

It doesn't get anymore "Chill" than Virginia Madsen during the filming of the original Candyman. I mean they used 200,000 honey bees that were very real in those bee scenes, that were all over here like honey in a hive.

They had various ways of wrangling them depending on what they needed the bees to do. Madsen's co-star Tony Todd aka Candyman went through the same regime.

So you think you are "Chill" imagine getting the shot required of you, acting and doing it with a hive load of bees all over you?!

Yeah, I figured Virginia beat most of you on this "Chill" challenge..

Hit the full article on how those bees were wrangled after the jump! Now have yourself a fantastic Hump Day and may your "Chill" be bee free!!!
