I'm a particular fan of Bleecker's mugshot game, "Guess the Offense", so let's play today! What, oh what, could this ethereal earth angel have possibly done to land herself in the slammer?! I'll reveal the ALLEGED crime later tonight! Reveal: Hors, meet Christa Sokacz of Louisville, KY, arrested for the following!  Escape Second DEGREE (Identity/Facility)  Violation of a Kentucky  Order of Protection/DV Probation of Violation (Felony Offense) 

 

"Hey gang! I know it's summer vaca but I just had to call you, you'll never believe it! As a reward for my (almost) straight-A grades last year (okay, I got a C in chemistry) (what do you expect, I'm a cheerleader, lol), my parents just bought me a brand-new Galaxy 5000! Isn't it the most, to say the least? "Oh! And I saw a new girl from Austria named Sandy signing up for next semester and she's dreadfully pretty and I just know we're going to be life-long friends! She said she's going to try out for the cheerleading team. Oh, I'm sure she'll be peachy-keen, jellybean - though I bet she hasn't got even half my moves! Behold:  "Oh, well, see you in September!" The older I get the more stupidly sentimental I become. Much love to these two beautiful people, Olivia Newton-John and Susan Buckner, both gone now. (Photo Credit: Paramount Pictures) Wistful, but happy, Wednesday, darlings. Don't forget to show us your own cheerlead...

Source: TripAdvisor One of our resident Peckers, LMN, sent us an email about their husband stopping by the charming town of Hooker, Oklahoma during a roadtrip. According to Wikipedia, the town's motto is "it's a location, not a vocation." Ha! With just over 1,700 residents, what the town lacks in size it makes up for in humour! LMN's hubby knows we Peckers love a cheeky fashion statement, so he generously procured this t-shirt for the town's high school baseball team. To be seen is to be loved!

Greetings, fellow tramps, and welcome to another edition of Manor Music Monday - this week with an extra-long holiday hangover. But you know the solution to that, don't you? More cocktails! Obvi. And tonight at the Manor's swingin' club, "Pocket Rocket," bartenders will be serving Hank Panky cocktails , while DJ Li'l Scratch will be playing outta-sight tunes performed by a somewhat forgotten chanteuse who richly deserves rediscovery. I speak of Rita Moss, a dazzling jazz-pop vocalist whose "Talk To Me Tiger" from 1966 is a thrilling, one-of-a-kind LP. Known for her stunning four-octave range, Rita only recorded five full-length LPs (that I can find), and trust me, you'll never forget her once you've heard her. She's often compared to  Yma Sumac , but I think of her more as a precursor to  Minnie Riperton , what with her eerily floating, way-up-high soprano, ersatz instrumentations and jazz-pop stylings. The title track is actually the LP...

Darlings, throw on your pearls and peel yourself off the fainting couch — this Sunday, we’re going somewhere deliciously decadent. Tonight’s setting? A roaring 1920s dinner party that would make Gatsby feel underdressed. There is no specific year — we’re simply in the 1920s, the decade that invented champagne-soaked chaos.   Arrivals & Aesthetic The guests arrive in chauffeured Hispano-Suizas and Packards, stepping out in velvet cloaks, chinchilla wraps, and the occasional scandal. Josephine Baker glides in like silk dipped in firelight, fresh from a Paris revue. Ernest Hemingway, still smoldering with youth and trauma, saunters in with a flask of something strong and a story twice as strong. And Cole Porter? He’s already at the piano, turning your indiscretions into sheet music. Dorothy Parker is parked on a tufted velvet chaise in the corner, armed with a gimlet, ready to dismantle everyone’s ego in ten words or less. “Brevity,” she purrs, “is the soul of lingerie.” Oscar Wil...

Source: Angus Jenner Well I'll be damned, they actually performed together. After a 16-year hiatus, Oasis took to the stage in Cardiff, Wales, yesterday to perform many of their old classics to a cheering crowd. When they originally announced their plans for a tour back in August 2024, many were rightfully dubious as to whether this would actually materialize. Liam Gallagher jokingly asked fans if it was worth the £40,000 they spent to see the band play. The Gallagher brothers ended the show with their fan favourite song, Champagne Supernova , and embraced each other in a warm hug. Awww! Do you think they will make it through all 41 scheduled shows?

No, really. What, you were expecting something else?

 

It's like totally muggy today, so after school lets out, let's hit the beach. I'm driving! You girls can flirt with the shirtless boys on the beach while me and Chad disappear for a while in the shrubbery to, uh, spelunk. Hey, it's 1972 and this is the #1 song in the country, so let's have a blast ALL SUMMER LONG!

It's hard to believe we've been debauching here in the Manor for two whole years now! You're all cordially invited to the parlour for some cake and sing-a-longs. The live entertainment arrives at 9!

Greetings, favored whores, and welcome to another kicky edition of Music Manor Monday, today with extra social protest 'n such. What do I mean by that? Find out tonight at the Manor's "Sloppy Sausage" after hours club. There, DJ Li'l Scratch will be playing tunes by one of the best white blues singers ever. No, for reals. She was a genuine blues and jazz legend whose abilities are as "rare as a 20 karat diamond," according to no less that Louis Armstrong. Jazz critic Leonard Feather called her “Bessie Smith in stereo.”  In other words, Barbara Dane is the real deal. A fervent fighter for social justice - when that meant more than tickling a keyboard - Barbara's career took off when she moved to San Francisco in the late 1940s. There, she caught the eyes (and ears) of blues devotees all 'round town. Even Ebony , in what was said to be the magazine’s first profile of a white woman, was impressed by both her music and her no-holds barred advocacy f...

Tired of your feline overlord using your legs as a clawing post? Too bad! You have a cat and you're fucked! But not totally - lucky for you there's this shit! I don't know what you call it, but if your legs are looking like they belong to a used-up dummy from Zorro's practicing lair, you should get some!

  What a blast from the past! I was reading about Glastonbury 2025 and came across this image of Pete Doherty, who will be performing on the Greenpeace stage today with his band, The Libertines. Doherty claims that his Glastonbury experience will be a bit different this year as he is with his 2-year old daughter and will be searching out "playgrounds and ice creams." He told reporter Charlotte Gallagher (pictured above) that he loves the magic of Glastonbury and it will always be special to him. Source: BBC News

For many of us around here, it's hotter than Satan's taint in a wool jockstrap - and with that, we tend to prefer fare on the lighter side when it's time to stuff our empty maws. So Peckerdears, what are some of your favorite summer dishes that get the job done without giving you the meat sweats? I'll go first! Macaroni Salad While this one's a pretty standard recipe I like and found at  Macaroni Salad - Sugar Spun Run , it does the trick when you want a little light, cold pasta to sate your hunger: Ingredients: 8 oz macaroni noodles 1/2 cup diced sweet pickles 3/4 cup diced red bell pepper 1/3 cup sliced celery 1/3 cup diced red onion 2 large hard boiled eggs, diced Macaroni Salad Dressing: 3/4 cup mayo 1/4 cup sour cream (you could use nonfat plain greek yogurt if you wanna be low cal) 2 tbsp sweet pickle juice 1 tbsp red wine vinegar 1 tbsp sugar 2 tsp stone-ground mustard (or dijon if you nasty) 1/4 tsp salt 1/4 tsp black pepper 1/8 tsp garlic powder 1/8 tsp cru...

 

In 1982, I was a poor, yet simple, boy of 8 or 9, and I watched everything. We had 3 networks and 2 PBS stations, as well as 2 local stations that showed bowling, farm reports and some sort of stupid puppet show - as well as a really awesome show on Saturday nights that had old black-and-white, scary (but not really scary) movies. "Fantasies" was not among those, though it was a major, prime-time network movie, and it concerned the stars of "a very sexy soap opera" being murdered by a psycho stalker killer, the hook being that it starred ACTUAL SOAP OPERA STARS (!), the main one being the delightful Miss Robin Mattson from "General Hospital" and that dude from "All My Children" who's most famous for the commercial in which he muttered those immortal words, "I'm not a doctor, but I play one on TV." "Fantasies" is on Youtube, and I just watched the first scene in which a self-absorbed, pervy asshole actor gets killed pre...
