True Confession: I once shoplifted with my friends when we were 13. Bold and with a lack of fear that only accompanies youth, we stuffed our bookbags full of cosmetics from the makeup aisle in a grocery store. It was a local California chain that I shall not name in case the statute of limitations hasn't run out. I may still be considered a fugitive. I am unsure, but why take chances?  The FBI can still throw my ass in prison.  Regarding our schoolbags, when I say stuffed, I mean jam-packed with anything we could get young sticky fingers on. We had an intricate, dare I say, brilliant system, too. Like the budding criminals we were, our plan was executed with precision. We distracted the bored, older woman worker who had been eyeing us with far too much interest by knocking over a display with a loud OH I AM SO SORRY! Like we foresaw, she shot us the barely concealed look of hostility and resignation and started reorganizing the cardboard cutout of some model with shelves of sh...

EVENING NIGHTCAP: Paul Is Arrested. This Thirsty Hag...again. Whoa..That's Her? (no way!)

Image
    ► Comedian and actor Paul Rodriguez (70) was arrested for possession of narcotics during a traffic stop in California. Paul was the passenger in the car when cops turned on their cherry tops and pulled them over for a traffic violation. No word on what the "traffic violation" was. After searching the car, cops gave Paul and whoever was driving a set of their finest steel bracelets and dragged their asses to jail.  He was released and is scheduled to appear in court next month. Paul's attorney said he will fight the charges because Paul was a passenger who fully cooperated with the cops, and did not have any controlled substances on him. He said that Paul's civil rights were violated with the arrest.  Read More   Paul Rodriguez, 2024.

OPEN POST: Manor Music Monday With Tino Contreras And His Mexicano Jazz!

Phew. Is it hot in here? Is it gas or electric heat I'm feeling? Oh, throw open all the windows! Let the cool ocean breeze wrap around us we dance. Or so you'll be saying while dancing and  cha-cha-cha'ing at The Manor's exclusive "Galactic Muffin Lounge," where our own DJ Li'l Scratch is spinning the best of  Tino Contreras, the head-trippy, vanguard Mexican jazz drummer and composer.  Ay! Even if you haven't heard of Tino, you've  heard  him at one point or another in your life. He's long been cherished South of the Border, but it's taken quite a bit longer for us  gringos  to catch on. Just wait.  His jazz is propulsive, joyful, and dripping with sex, with everything from bongos, big bass swings, trumpets, psychedelic jazz riffs and ritual chants tossed into the mix, all of which you can hear in "Santo," his spaced-out classic:  Tino lived long enough to find himself all but canonized in his country and in jazz circles worldwi...
