Poor J-Kun, he was laying on his blankie (a hand towel on the bed) trying to settle down for a good nap. See, when you get to be his age (20 yrs. old) naps are an integral part of the day. See the black streak behind him? That's Lou (age 2) trying to foil his plans and engage him in play. Can you tell he's a touch annoyed?
My poor loveyboy.

Doesn't eveyone love a good fart joke?
My friend just sent me this email and I couldn't stop laughing...
I was in the pub yesterday when I suddenly realized I desperately needed to fart. The music was really, really loud, so I timed my farts with the beat.
After a couple of songs, I started to feel better. I finished my drink and noticed that everybody was staring at me.
Then I suddenly remembered that I was listening to my iPod.
So uncouth yet, so funny. Have a great weekend everyone!

I was devastated when I heard that John Hughes passed away after suffering a heart attack during his morning walk yesterday morning in NYC. He was only 59 years old. Simply put, his movies were the soundtrack of my teen years. Below are some of my favorites.

John, you may be gone but you'll never be forgotten.

Listening To- Musical Youth

I had so much fun with the Eddy Grant Electric Avenue video from yesterday I thought today we'd head to 1982 and Pass The Dutchie with Musical Youth
Musical Youth- Pass The Dutchie
Stylestance commented "Ha, I remember the controversy surrounding this song (ie, what exactly is a dutchie?)"
So, I figured I should edit the post to include the answer in case others didn't know.
The controversy stemmed from the original song "Pass the Kutchie" by The Mighty Diamonds is about passing a joint around. When they did the kid friendly remake version for Musical Youth they changed it to "Dutchie" a dutchie being a large cooking pot. This fits in perfectly with the lyric "how does it feel when you got no food?"
Here's the original version of the song Pass The Kutchie by The Mighty Diamonds:

Can't Live Without...
Herbacin Chamomile Hand Cream.
It combines the healing properties of natural chamomile extracts, the caring substances of glycerin plus the protection of silicon.
The fact is it works great. It's not greasy and the tin is perfect for slipping into your purse without the fear of having the lotion leak out because it's a soft solid!
Love it!

Juicy Gems
Photographer Guido Mocafico’s campaign for Bulgari brings us a feast of fruit and diamonds. Two things a women should never live without. How delicious!
One thing that's bothering me, and it has nothing to do with the campaign. Am I the only one thinking that the lobster claw clasp on the first diamond necklace looks super cheapskate-ish? Shouldn't a necklace of this caliber command a press down slip in clasp that had diamonds moutned on top and safety latches on both sides? Why skimp on the finishes?
