Film Buff Friday: Some Like It Hot

Some Like It Hot is one of my favorite movies of all time. So much so that I in fact have the poster above in my home.

Today I am posting a link that my friend Jay Jacobson wrote about this comedy masterpiece (IMHO) which is one of the many films featured on his site Jay's Classic Movie Blog.

In addition to Some Like It Hot you will find other classics such as Rebel Without A Cause and Alfred Hitchcock's Rebecca, which are two of my personal faves, plus many more.

Jay not only breaks the movies down he gives you behind the scenes history of the stars and facts of what went into making the film and things that happened during the making of it.

Michael's Musings

"I Blame Madonna"
Michael Shinafelt

While I did not watch yesterday's SS (Sh!t Show) aka The Impeachment Hearing, word travels, especially when congressman Ken Buck chose to use his time calling out Madonna. Just when you thought our government couldn't resemble an episode of The Twilight Zone more than it does...

So anything that I say in this weeks column that maybe, might offend you, I'm gonna blame Madonna for it, so there! Time to express myself Minions!

Rump Swapper, discuss...

Let people chow down on the nether regions of their choice

There's got to be a missing sock somewhere right here, right now

Sure I'll give a cheese sandwich, only if you walk on water

Trump stiffing Giuliani for his legal fees is on brand

Keep your nose in your mask and out of my business

Finally saw Spring Breakers w/Ashley Benson, Vanessa Hudgens, Selena Gomez & James Franco on Netflix, loved it!!!

Lauren Boebert is unhinged & beyond, not to be confused with Bed, Bath & Beyond

Woman Crush of the Week - Shanola Hampton, I've been bingeing Shameless on Netflix and Veronica is my kind of woman

FYI Lies are not differences of opinion

"Trump Administration resignations are piling up. They did not see this coming. They’re Not-sees" - Jimmy Kimmel

Ivanka Trump deleted a Tweet calling the Domestic Terrorists at the Capitol "Patriots" I wanna delete Ivanka Trump

What Would Kim Cattrall Do?

Buh Bye
Kim Cattrall

With all the noise being made over a Samantha Jones less Sex and the City revival, I'm many of you have thought: What Would Kim Cattrall Do? In terms of reacting to this news?

Subtly react to a Tweet supporting her not reprising her role on the show THAT's what she'd do, and did. Bare witness to the said Tweet below...

And that my Minions is called expert shade!

And Just Like That...

Revival!
l-r
Cynthia Nixon, Kristin Davis & Sarah Jessica Parker 

In case you haven't heard HBO Max is reviving Sex and the City for 10 episodes with the title And Just Like That...

While I do enjoy reruns of the original show I'm not really sure about this, considering the first SATC movie was merely OK, and the second movie was downright awful. Also Kim Cattrall will not be returning as Samantha, she was my favorite character on the show.

This is a "we shall wait and see" type of proposition. While I am not going to outright dismiss it, I am very skeptical moving forward.

Caution, is today's secret word...

Silly Sunday

Changing Faces
Gerard Butler

With sedition in the air I found myself wanting something a lot less heavy. My mind wandered back to a few weeks ago when I saw The Ugly Truth with Gerard Butler & Katherine Heigl for the very first time, yeah I was like a virgin, on some station.

I started thinking about what a manly stud Gerard is, thus I Goggled him and came across something even better than his usual Sex God like pose he strikes. 

"Yes" it's Mr. Butler making a silly face, which is actually even sexier than if he were to smolder. I don't know about you, but a sense of humor makes a fine guy even better looking if you ask me, and while I know you didn't ask me, whatever!!!

So let's have a Silly Sunday courtesy of a Gerard, because as you know the Butler did it!

National Balloon Ascension Day

Up!

Hey you, yes you, here is something to add to your well of useless knowledge today. Did you know January 9th is National Balloon Ascension Day? Well now you do!

With all the nonsense and insane happenings in the world at large, when I found this out all I could think of is how grand it would be to escape for just a little while. 

Even though I have never seen Pixar's Up, I have seen the image from it above before and it is what immediately sprung to mind when I found out that today is a celebration of ascending balloons.

Honestly it looks like a blast to hitch a house and go up, up in the air with some beautiful, vibrant balloons.

So let's celebrate today and pretend we are in the house flying high attached to a gaggle of balloons off on a magical journey, shall we? We shall!!!

Here's the 411 on NBAD - fly free Minions!
