Greetings, Manor Hors! Periodically, "The Roving Pecker" presents urgent missives from filthy esteemed guest writers. Today's is from D'Hermitage! ------------------------------------- They're here again. The Pets of Peckerwood Manor have long kept supersecret diaries. But lucky for you, I stole even more pages from a few and can now share their hush-hush scribbles: Scout And His Portrait I AM SO EXCITED! Plastic Botox Face and I are going to art school! I’m going to get my portrait painted. As I will only trust the styling of THE dutch masters for my headshot, I have narrowed down the pose choices to two. I’m always told how effortlessly chic I look, but really, it just means that those observing don’t make the effort. There is no shame in EFFORT. It is deliberate and well thought out! But also, shout out to my DNA as one should not forget thy nepo-roots! Soooo the choices are: Jan Van Eyck:  Or Rembrandt:  Masters of their craft, dear diary - and so am I! The ...

  ABC Well hello there, boys and girls but especially you boys! Autumn is at its height, the leaves, they are a-fallin’, and as the darkness swallows the light, a sniggering laugh whispers on the wind.  Who can it be? Why, it’s everyone’s favourite force of nature and (barely)  closeted druncle, Paul Lynde, with his fabulously exotic entourage! The Wicked Witch of the West (Margaret Hamilton), Witchipoo (Billie Hayes), and, of course, KISS, were all bit players in a show that was really all Paul.   ABC “Marrying Paul to Halloween seemed like a good idea, because there was something essentially witchy about Paul Lynde.” Bruce Vilanch The Paul Lynde Halloween Special  from 1976 is something I was never allowed to watch as a child for reasons that escaped me at the time, but now that I’m in my crone era there’s nobody to stop me. Shall we watch together?  Wouldn't that just be lovely?   What are you watching this spooky season?

Not a new pic (grabbed from my IG), but I love everything about it.  Meanwhile, it's that time of year when it starts to cool down and the days grow shorter but it's still warm and windy and sunny. There's a tinge of regret for the end of warm weather, but anticipation for the leaves changing colors and the upcoming Holiday seasons . And just to bring it full circle to the Ford Fairlane Skyliner , here's a reaction video of some dude listening to "Since I Don't Have You" by The Skyliners for the first time. Unusually for reaction videos, he lets the whole thing play before giving his thoughts and I love this comment: "This makes me want to go and slow dance with my wife." Whether this makes you want to slow dance with your wife, or your husband, or gambol in nature with your 4-legged friends or just go outside and take a deep breath of clean, fresh air, happy Open Post, darlings!

  It seems celebrities have some insatiable urge to show us their underwear. Dresses left and right are sheer. And if it's not their underwear, it's their nips! Staying on trend, here's JLo sporting Dolce & Gabbana. She's got her classic mouth-breathing sex kitten face to tie the look together.  She's beautiful but aren't we bored? Source: JLo on Instagram

Movie twists have become ubiquitous these days, so much so that it seems like most have double, even triple twists, while some novels load on so many that you may be tempted to skip ahead to the final one just for expediency's sake. It's becoming a very tired cliche.  But some twists are evergreen. I'd seen "Sixth Sense" in 1999, of course, so ghost story twists weren't exactly new to me or anyone, but the supernatural twist only a few years later in 2001's "The Others" was equally, if not more chilling. Your mileage may vary, of course, but the reveal that every main character was dead - by way of a mother murdering her children, then killing herself - shivered me timbers. What are your favorite movie twists? And, no, they don't have to involve ghosts.  BTW, DJ Li'l Scratch is still on a bender which started Friday night, but promises Music Manor Monday will be back next week. 🐾

Yes, banning the press is terrible, but it's just one in a mountain of horrors enacted by this administration, few of which will be solved even if the Dems with the midterms, including this .  By the way, the link is from a politically middle-brow gossip site, so you know matters are truly grave when even they're reporting on such things. If you can, give this very well respected group a 10-spot. 

  Getty   Ah, Autumn. There's a nip in the air, and probably in the pocket of the tweed jacket belonging to the stout gentleman with the field glasses. The sun beats down, melting the frost on the turf. The women are in silk headscarves, breeches, and puffer vests for once, athleisurewear of the last century, And we're all ready for the action to begin. It could be a steeplechase, or it could be a flat race, but the excitement is always the same. The sleek, powerful beasts are in the starting gate. The crowd holds its breath. THEY'RE OFF!     Horses? Who said anything about horses? I'm all about the Jack Russells, spunky little dogs who will tear your arm off if you try and stop them (which is why the people who catch them at the end wear the same kind of gloves as people who handle eagles, no lie). They are a wee titch excitable on race day (and every other day) and that's why the racing rules include muzzles these days. Bred as rat-catchers, these pups never shy a...
