I love this interpretation of "Grease," a movie that is quite dear to my heart. “Grease” is satire so effective and sophisticated that many people do not realize it is satire. When I hear people criticize “Grease” as being full of horrific, pearl clutching sexist tropes (think of the children!), I can’t help but roll…

Ohhhhhhh Gaaaaaaawd

In a sea of delightfully named New Orleans marching clubs, this has always been one of my favorites: http://www.cameltoeladysteppers.org/

Did Martin also appear at the Copa?

Happy birthday to Miss Peggy Lee. You and I have already discussed our mutual passion for Lee on this forum - thanks for the reminder of her centennial.

Love those dresses, and I can’t help but think they shed them pretty early in the show for something slinkier underneath. But straw boaters are an odd choice, no?

Who knew that music and passion would no longer be in fashion?

I’m gonna drink myself half-blind.

Dear Sir or Madam:

See, here’s why I could never land a prince. If Harry asked ME to go camping in Botswana, I would politely decline because camping is a total dealbreaker for me. Now, if he'd invited me to a 5 star luxury resort...

If the musical parody “Silence!” is ever performed in your city, you must see it. It is very silly and raunchy and written with such obvious love for the movie - anyone who is a big fan of the film will enjoy it, regardless of your general feelings about musical theatre.

I’m with ya!

Your cats are respectful? I sure wish mine were...:)

We’re doing pretty well - Mr Crunchy always worked at home, so life hasn’t changed much for him. We stay away from each other most of the day, as we are both working (me upstairs, him downstairs). Kid was doing online school until today, which is the end of the year for her. We’re watching a lot more TV than we…

Damn, beat me to it again, Jerry! :)

Oh God. He’s just so incredibly stupid. He has many many horrible faults, there’s not one redeeming thing about him. But what makes me stop in my tracks daily is just how fucking stupid he is.

He also almost blew the whole thing up by storming onto the high school campus and verbally abusing the poor guidance counselor who had the nerve to gently question the kid about her fake rowing credentials. The bribe-taker at USC called the bribe arranger and told him to get Mossimo to chill the fuck out before his…

Oh yeah, she def sounds like an awful tenant, but I see where you’re going! I’ve been quite back and forth on how much credence I’ve given her claims. Biden is far from my first choice as the Dem nominee, but I'm struggling with this. 

I'm going back over my apartment renting history, and I think landlords probably remember only extreme encounters. If you never paid your rent, they'll remember that. If you became extremely close friends, they'll also remember that. Just a regular good tenant is probably pretty forgettable after a few years, which is…

There are a lot of stunningly beautiful children in the world. Many of them have stage parent who would probably let them be in any movie for free, let alone a “Twilight” movie. Why would the filmmakers not cast a real child? Too expensive to pay? Issues with child labor laws? The baby has to do something awful that…
