Hump Day & Chill

Got Portrait in the Attic?
Paul Rudd

While I am aware it is April the 7th, today we celebrate the ageless, not to mention delicious Paul Rudd's Birthday who turned 52 yesterday. "Yes" we are celebrating it a day late, how else could we Hump Day & Chill to Mr. Rudd if we celebrated it on his actual DOB? I ask you? Yeah I know I am getting zero response.

Thus I have provided a link to Mr. Rudd, the cutie patootie, doing some copious skin baring, courtesy of Tye Briggs via his Favorite Hunks & Other Things blog.

Also I am going to give you the 411 on a lesser known Rudd film that I L-O-V-E! It's a wicked number by auteur Neil LaBute titled The Shape of Things co-starring Rachel Weisz. Here's the 411 on it from IMDb:

"A quiet, unassuming man begins to change in a major way as a result of meeting a new, art-student girlfriend, and his friends are unsettled by the transformation."

What's that? Alright I know what you want and I'm gonna give it to you! Click on the link below to find your Hump Day & Chill thrill with Paul, today he is your Baby Doll...!!!

Death Has Blue Eyes

Death Has Blue Eyes is a gripping paranormal action thriller with shades of giallo from the director of the cult classic video nasty Island of Death (1976).

When local gigolo Chess (Chris Nomikos) greets his vacationing friend Bob Kovalski (Peter Winter) at Athens airport, the pair embark on a string of scams and erotic dalliances that eventually lead them into contact with an elegant wealthy woman, Geraldine Steinwetz (Jessica Dublin), and her glamorous daughter Christine (Maria Aliferi). Geraldine blackmails the two cheeky bachelor boys into acting as bodyguards for Christine, whom it transpires has telepathic abilities and has had her eye on them for some time. After fleeing from a series of assassination attempts, it soon becomes clear that Geraldine herself might not be quite whom she seems, as the two young men find themselves caught up in a political conspiracy of international dimensions.

In his debut feature, maverick filmmaker Nico Mastorakis presents us with a generous meze of non-stop car, bike and helicopter chases, a bevy of beautiful girls with guns, sensational softcore sex scenes, psychic thrills and Cold War political intrigue set against the picturesque landscapes of 70s Greece, all presented for the very first time in a new HD master in both widescreen and full-frame versions.

Monday Vibes

Crazy, Sexy, Cool
Dan Levy

While I didn't watch the Screen Actors Guild Awards last night (to be honest even in a regular awards season I don't watch them either) I did spy this photo of Dan  Levy of Schitt's Creek fame from the to do, looking like a cream dream and giving off some seriously cool Monday Vibes.

This is one of the more original, yet stylish and cooler than you'll ever be, ensembles I have ever seen a dude wear to an awards show.

It almost makes me wish I was into fashion, yeah, I know, it may sound like I am from the above statement, but truly I simply notice when something pops and is out of the ordinary, otherwise...meh.

So today's vibe world is "cool" - 

Get out there and be your own Dan Levy and bend it!

Happy Easter, Bunny!

Got Basket?
Farrah Fawcett

Every year we celebrate Easter and every year I find some sort of image to commemorate it. Usually something that's functional and uninspired. Well this year I struck Easter Egg gold when I came across this photo of the late beauty, actress Farrah Fawcett.

"Yes" Minions this year I celebrate Easter with a photo of Ms. Fawcett dressed as the Easter Bunny! OK, maybe she was dressed as a Playboy Bunny, if that's the case how much more fun is that?!

So break out out your Cadbury Eggs, go on that Easter Egg hunt and drink Mimosas, yeah, it's that kind of a day...

Happy Easter!

Garden Broom Recordings Set to Release

Resurfaced EP

Debut by New Electronic Artist

Alighted

Chronicling Recent Cancer Experience

~

Lead Single “Resurfaced” out April 2

EP out April 16, 2021

Garden Broom Recordings announces its next release, the Resurfaced EP, by founder, producer, and creative technologist, McLean Macionis, under his new moniker, Alighted, out April 16, 2021. The 4-track EP follows the label’s inaugural release by experimental duo NMND, of which Macionis is a member. Alighted’s debut is a collection of tracks forged from warm analog sounds, raw field recordings, and diffuse granular textures. Drawing inspiration from a personal health crisis, the EP is a unified odyssey complete with moments of hardship and bliss as expressed through the technology that is essential to the artist’s creative practice. The title track and lead single, “Resurfaced,” will arrive on April 2, 2021. To learn more about Alighted, please visit https://linktr.ee/alighted.

The EP chronicles the artist as he comes to grips with his new identity both personally and artistically following a cancer diagnosis. “Imagine a distressed bird flying through an endless sky searching for a place to land. That was my experience following the initial diagnosis, subsequent surgery, and treatment. I was desperate to settle my mind so that I could begin to process the tremendous physical and mental shock.” The image of the bird in search of a place to rest resonated deeply with Macionis so much so that he adopted the moniker Alighted, a verb that describes how a bird descends and eventually settles.

With his newfound identity, Macionis went to work channeling his internal experience through music. “Every track begins at the piano. I usually create a rough sketch, a recording of the melody or harmony, and then focus on realizing the idea using other instruments.” During the production process, Macionis elected to search outside of the computer for the right sounds and instruments to execute his visions. This search prompted him to use drum machines, analog synthesizers, and field recordings as the backbone of the EP’s sound palette.

Walking The Pooch

Man's Best Friend
Jon Hamm

While I am fully aware that "Walking The Pooch" is a euphemism that  means....well look it up. In this case it is a literal thing, and for that my wandering eyes are quite grateful. Especially since it takes on the form of one Jon Hamm.

"Yes" Minions it's Jon Hamm letting his dog out for a walk in Los Angeles and what a sight to behold it is! Especially since he's doing it in shorts that show off his great legs. 

However one thing seems to have changed, does Mr. Hamm no longer freeball? Now don't tell me none of you remember the notorious "Hamm" in Jon's sweatpants photos of him going sans underwear. That sight was real and spectacular and from the looks of it he does not seem to have released the Kraken, or maybe the camera angle hides it.

Bummer!!!

Michael's Musings

Blurred Lines
Michael Shinafelt

Do you ever think to yourself "What Line Did I Cross?" In the world we live in is there even one left to do so with? Is this too deep to ponder? Remember when April Fools Day actually was novel and not 365 days a year? 

There are so many questions and not enough answers or time to ruminate on them so let's forget about it and dance!

I'm loving little Lil Nas  X current single Montero (Call Me By Your Name)

At first it was weird partying with old guys, the more you know...

Autocorrect is messed up I typed a text to a friend saying "Hi Sandy" and it suggested I follow my greeting with "Hook Elementary" wished I was joking

Got my first vaccine Monday - Pfizer is the word

Koalas have Chlamydia, say that three times fast

April 1st needs to be a regular day, personally I can not take one more act of tomfoolery 

Isn't it great to have a real President?

BTW If you wanna talk about it, I'm on it!
