Small Town’s Got Talent

There’s a new televised reality competition premiering today. WAIT! Don’t stop reading. This one’s pretty cool. And very, very sweet. Ditching the glitz, glamour and high production value of network TV’s biggest talent searches, Showville is purposefully thinking small. As in small town. Each week, judges Alec Mapa and Lisette Bustamante (above) land in a [...]

Brunch Of The Month: Cast Iron Comfort

This Sunday is one of the best brunch days of the year. Because most of us have Monday off, that means we can ramp up our mimosa intake from our conservative six to somewhere in the neighborhood of 217. And even though TABC is ruining our buzz by cracking down on bottomless cocktails, DISH serves [...]

Laters, Taters

Unconventional marriages have gotten out of control. Just as the wacky ultra-conservatives have predicted, the slippery slope is upon us. First it was mixed races walking down the aisle. Then came the gays. Skipping. But now, we’ve catapulted right past their predictions of man marrying animal and welcomed the ultimate abomination into our great American [...]

Little Orff Uncanny

Few works of musical artistry propel us to such heights of emotional enlightenment as Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana. (Except maybe Mackelmore’s Thrift Shop. We love 99¢ bargains!) But back to Carmina Burana, the epic 1930s classical orchestration of a collection of poems and dramatic texts from the 11th to 13th centuries. There’s something about every [...]

Pianist Lovers

Even in death, few things on earth are gayer than Liberace. Ghost hunters at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in the Hollywood Hills have consistently recorded otherworldly shouts of “Boo!” With a lisp.

Stuff Your Pets

We love curling up with our dogs, squeezing them tight, then throwing them in a suitcase for a long overseas vacation. That’s because we’ve immortalized our beloved pets in pillow form and now we can take them anywhere. Or accessorize any piece of furniture around the house. The process is simple.

Tight Seal

Misunderstandings can really cause problems. Like the time we were arrested in a tree at Reverchon Park with our pants around our ankles. Sure, the cops have lots of “evidence,” from the security footage of us shoplifting condoms at Walgreens earlier the same day to dash-cam video of three other naked men on the same [...]

Insta Replay

Not to brag or anything, but we take a lot of great photos. Problem is, most of them never get beyond the camera roll on our iPhone. And that has nothing to do with the fact that 80% of them are nude selfies shot in a bathroom mirror. Well, now there’s a service that takes [...]
