OPEN POST: It's the Perfect Date!

By

Credit: Warner Brothers It's April 25th, and you know what that means: Miss Congeniality Day! In the film, which came out 26 (!) years ago, Miss Rhode Island, played by the lovely Heather Burns, described April 25th as her perfect date. "It's not too hot, it's not too cold, all you need is a light jacket!" It is definitely too cold here in my neck of the woods, but hopefully some of you Peckers are enjoying the weather today!

Open Post: Generation X Beauty is Changing the Game and a Bonus: When Animals Take Out the Trash

Gen X beauty, the cool, detached, slightly subversive aesthetic embodied by women like Winona Ryder, the real Supermodels (Linda, Christy, Naomi, Kate, Shalom, Helena), Sade Adu, Lisa Bonet, Angelina Jolie, and Uma Thurman, to name a few, is having a quiet but very intentional resurgence, and companies are paying attention.

Send this to likeminded nerds:  ( ... --- ...). It's   the universal Morse code distress signal, dont'cha know. 'Cause we're living in stressful times, aren't we?  It's time to decompress, if only for an evening, and at the Manor's exclusive "Tug Job" bar, vapory and snackery (warm, cheesy cassava bread is served all night!), DJ Li'l Scratch will be playing tunes by a  performer whose career as a big band singer, Broadway, movie and TV star stretched over 50 years. Do you know who it is? If you guessed Fran Warren, you're right. And, yes, you can also add Sexploitation Queen to her resume, since she played the cranky mom in " Toys Are Not For Children ," a beloved 1972 psycho-sexual drama extraordinaire. Fran really did do it all! It was the early 1940s ...
