OPEN POST: Start Your Week With Cher! Hoooooooooo!

By


It's Monday, which is harsh enough. But everything's better with one simple ingredient: Cher. See? Just reading that made you feel good. 

Did you know? She was almost cast in "Thelma & Louise." No, for reals. Before Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis were cast, she was offered one of the lead roles, but turned it down. Why? We don't know. Cher will be Cher. She also turned down the Sarah Connor role in "The Terminator." Can you imagine Cher opposite Ah-nold? Yeah, that's a "no" for me, dawg.

Also, for better or for worse, her 1998 hit “Believe” was the first major pop song to use autotune so prominently, a style which is still widely used and abused today. The only upside is that "Believe" really pissed off Madonna, since she was experimenting with autotune in the studio for her forthcoming "Music" album and Cher beat her to the punch. 

Why? Because she's Cher. Because Cher has always been unapologetically herself, which is something we should all strive for. No, not being Cher, silly, being ourselves, though if you feel moved to sashay forth today in a slinky, Bob Mackie-like gown, let 'er rip.

Honk-honk! It's Monday, yes, but as most of you know, this needn't be cause for concern, as our Monday Mayhem Manor Parade™ is right now marching throughout the estate and outlying township, bringing joy to all who behold it.  Feeling blue? Come outside or gaze out your window. Who can resist the sight of marching fowl, pandas, chickens, and, of course, a smattering of Bendy Boyz™? Life beyond our hamlet may be troubled, but here? Relief and giggles. Fred says it best:  Meanwhile, Mr. Tristin Spratt, your devoted Peckerwood MajorDomo, would like to thank all who attended Peckerwood's first "Klassy Manor Movie Night" last Saturday eve, hosted by our very own Raincoaster! It was a rousing success, though the Manor crew had much popcorn and detritus to clean up, along with the scrubbing-up of suspicious fluids and goo in the back row of the second balcony.   Would you like to host a "Klassy Manor Movie Night?" Do email us to set it up. Here are a few things

OPEN POST: Want to See an Elephant Peel a Banana? OF COURSE YOU DO!

Pang Pha is a particular elephant. She loves her bananas, but only if they come a certain way and she knows what she likes. This beauty should live out her life in comfort with muscled, gorgeous go-go boys in tiny shorts feeding her all the bananas she can eat. Yellow-green is preferred, but in a pinch, she will peel her own bananas. Thank you very much . Even go-go boys need their beauty sleep.  As manor residents, we get to interview worthy employees skilled enough to care for our Pang Pha and be eye candy so we can ogle and objectify them whenever we feel like it. Oh, and we feel like it. Oh yes, we do ! photo: Getty
