So this image in my head of the Friar on a stool under a single spotlight, tuxedo tie undone, double shot in one hand and the mic in the other crooning "set 'em up Joe" pleases me probably more than it should.
And right at the end, he lights a cig, takes a long drag, and let's it out slow as the spotlight fades to black. Tell me you wouldn't pay to see it.

He sings, "Mack the Knife" and all of a sudden Stephen Mack is in the next spotlight *sorry, I promoted myself to general director of your head images*

oh uh, the Frair just tossed the tie and his tux jacket on the stage and started undoing shirt buttons. I think the bartender should have cut him off after that first double.

He's now singing "Suspicious Minds" in the cabaret of my mind

In the smoky venue, LB, Helen and I are in strapless ball gowns singing back-up vocals and snapping our fingers to the beat.

Please don't bring up that whole licking nipples on the beach thing again. I'm sure someone will go and dredge it up out of the FF archives if we talk about it too much. :(

*can't stop imagining the Friar doing a short Soundgarden medley for an encore*

And now...special guest joining the stage with the Friar...Pat Boone!

Wayne Newton in my scenario. Accompanied by Joe Silence.

Wayne doesn't have the theological chops to share the stage with Senor Friar.
- Bubba was a rollin stone
well neither does Pat. but in Vegas Cool Mode, Wayne is part of the pantheon.

Oh. Vegas Cool Mode is in alpha right now with a release date of 2015. Guess I'm not one of the cool kids to have that one yet.

Fwd: Okay, this may sound crazy, but I stubbed my toe and it actually ripped the nail off (it's only hanging on at the very bottom) late last night. I wonder if I could glue it on for now or if super glue would infect the raw skin. All I know is it hurts and I have it taped on now, but that's uncomfortable in my shoes. Anyone have experience with...
Ouch! Not a doc but I've killed a few nails. I'd say cut it back as far as you can stand and soak in warm salt water. The nail is gonna come off.

In pondering recently the works of Mel Brooks and Steven Spielberg, I think that being a director would be a very satisfying pursuit. A neat way to make a living.
"Part of this is that very few white people know someone like Charles Ramsey and know him within the context of other black people who exhibit the range of humanity. If you see some of us bougie folks are cringing, that's why." Man, preach.

nprfreshair: Mel Brooks tells David Bianculli about the late Madeline Kahn: I’m in tears thinking about Madeline. And what an incredibly gifted gift from god, Madeline Kahn. The funniest and most talented comedienne I think, including people like Carol Burnett who are great, you know, and Gilda Radner who was magnificent, but nobody — listen to... - http://flummery.tumblr.com/post...
That was such a great feature on yesterday's Fresh Air. I'm upset, because I totally forgot to watch his American Masters last night; I'll have to catch it whenever they re-air it.

What the POTUS (and FLOTUS) have been touting is pretty reflective of kitchen table talk in many black homes these days. Coates makes some persuasive arguments for revisiting that.

And though one of the reasons I'm not particularly enamored with the present incarnation of hip hop is its preoccupation with "money and ho's", it's pretty much the same product he Rat Pack (and pop music ) was selling way back when. Edit: and continues to sell

Love Frank! We had a local man doing a spot on lounge act of Frank. I actually think talent agents found him and he may be in Vegas. When I first heard his voice I thought the restaurant was playing a CD - it was a one man gig live!!
