It's About The Coffee

Must Have Caffeine
Evan Peters & Halsey
While trying to focus and get my body in motion this morning all I can think about is how much I would love some coffee

Seeing this photo of Evan Peters and Halsey hitting a Starbucks in Burbank, CA isn't helping matters much, "Yes" it's making me want some coffee even more, duh!

So if you thought I was going to address the Halsey pregnancy rumor when you saw this pic in today's post, you thought wrong. She is or she isn't either way who cares.

For me, myself and I, it's all about the coffee.

I'm gonna head out and get me some, right now...Ciao!

Monday Motivation

You'd Better Werk!
John Cena
Getting back into working out and the shape I was in before being laid up for three months post bunion surgery has been one of the hardest things I have ever done. Hey people I am almost fifty four, but I have been progressing and will get there.

Thus today I am her to motivate you, and myself with John Cena. Not only is he a poster child for fitness he is also a cool human being.

While I don't feel the need to get to the place Mr. Cena is body wise, I most definitely would like the ab definition I had before the lay up to reappear, as well as bigger biceps which I am working diligently on.

So John I know it is a heavy cross to bear but you are crowned today's King of Monday Motivation.

You've got this Cena!

Holy Turquoise!

The X-Factor
Celine Dion

Whilst I am not really a fan of Celine Dion's I have to say while surfing the WWW this turquoise number made my jaw drop and a "Wow" fell out!

Seriously this is one stand out, super amazing, eye catching, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious ensemble.

Wanna tussle about that? I dare ya, you'll lose!

Imagine catching a real time glimpse of the this as Celine strutted down the streets of NYC where she was spotted in this outfit. I said imagine it, are you? Imagine it and imagine it now! Thank You.

Thus today's secret word is: Turquoise (duh)

"Born In The Bronx"


Handsome Dick Manitoba releases his first solo album, 
"Born In The Bronx" 


Available Now via MVD Entertainment Group


Handsome Dick Manitoba was the leader of the NYC punk group "The Dictators" starting in 1975. The group went through a series of break ups and name changes but always with Manitoba as front man. This is his first solo release and is backed by a lineup of stellar musicians including P.F. Sloan, Michael Shrieve, Simon Kirke and others. Sloan backs him here on his opus "Eve of Destruction" playing harmonica, guitar and on background vocals. 

He was also an on air DJ on Sirius / XM for 14 years, being recognized by The Village Voice as "Best Satellite Radio DJ" in 2005. Manitoba was also lead singer for MC5 starting in 2005, after the death of lead singer Rob Tyner and remained in that capacity until they disbanded after the death of bassist Michael Davis in 2012. 

Manitoba now has a podcast called "You Don't Know Dick"...and the best is yet to come!


Producer / Co-writer Jon Tiven says: 

"We wanted to make a record that was contemporary punk 'n' roll with a love for the sound of our early heroes like Wynonie Harris, Bert Berns, and the Beach Boys. I brought in a few of my Nashville friends to play and sing on it----Buddy Miller, Harry Stinson, Beth Hooker, Shannon Pollard, Chuck Mead, Donte M'Shawn---as well as some old friends to kick the skins Mickey Curry, Mat Reale, Simon Kirke and Mike Shrieve. Our beach song, "Surfside," was injected with a direct dose of the California Sun by transcendental poet Stephen J. Kalinich, the only lyricist to work with Brian, Carl and Dennis Wilson (as well as Mike Love and Stephen Marks). 

I suggested we cut a new version of my pal the late P.F. Sloan's classic anthem "Eve Of Destruction," and Handsome Dick was all-in. I even managed to fly in some harmony vocals, harmonica, and acoustic guitar from P.F. himself from some previous sessions I had done with him.

It took us a minute to find the right home for the record, but Arny Schorr stepped up with his Liberation Hall imprint and had all the enthusiasm we needed to see. So this is BORN IN THE BRONX. Germinated in NYC, manifested in Nashville, now available throughout the world... I hope y'all enjoy it!"
