First Lady, Michelle Obama, must be feeling the need to cut back on her spending. What with the very expensive holidays taken of late.
Rumour has it that the First Lady filled her trolley with 'must have' items, not easily got at the White House.
Stocking up for a future party, the First Lady got loads of paper products and tins of nuts to serve her future guests.
I mean really, this trip to local Target is about as real as The Queen queueing up at the local Tesco for bargains. Talk about a blatant attempt to pander to the press and folks who truly need to cut back.
If you add the cost of security detail, there could have been no real savings about this trip.
The boredchap in the background must be part of the security detail. Look on face says it all...
It is rumoured that WC Fields said on deathbed; "all in all.....I'd rather be in Philadelphia.". Even on me worst day that would never be the wish of this old geezer. Yuck...
The silly video came to be as many who follow me channel on YOUTUBE banged on about no new offering.
Being a whore to public opinion, I thought I would slap something together to stop the emails begging for another filmed bit. It is not me best but it allows one and all to see quite clearly that I am very much alive and kicking...
I do miss Hilo, the Hilo Bay Hostel, Ron, Bill and Margie and of course The Big Kahuna. More than I let on. Life goes on and one has to adapt...
I read all of the mail from faithful followers and ever so appreciative of the many suggestions for future posts to the blog.
As a rule Chat Shows are not my cup of tea, BUT, that may well change as I have recently discovered and gone quite made for the Alan Carr Chat Show on Channel 4in UK.
Before mates had sent directions to this show to be found on YOUTUBE, this old geezer thought that Graham Norton was the most wickedly cheeky chat show host on the telly. Openly gay and full of clever innuendo-laden jokes, Mr. Norton was both campy and flamboyant, in a way that Benny Hill could never be.
Move over on the couch Mr. Norton, the ever so campy Alan Carr takes the crown...
As you can see from the clip, Mr. Carr never misses a beat. Truth be told, it would appear that his guests do not either. Just watch and listen to the clip.
In my day, I have watched many a chat show. None come close to the good time had by tuning into this one. One never knows who will turn up or what direction it will take. Forget about Rosie or Ellen or any other person doing a chat show. Even Jonathan Ross.
I know, I am over the moon for all things British. In this case it would seem that the UK has done it up rather well. There is nothing boring about the guests appearing on Alan's show.
For all of the lip service given to how well we do telly in America, it will never come to pass that a chat show on American telly will ever have so clever a host. Let alone openly GAY. I mean to tell you, there is no doubt that Alan is 'light in the loafers'. What makes it all work is that guests, audience and Mr. Carr are in on the joke.
If you have not see Alan's show before, watch the clip and at the end you will have the option to see more. I went through quite a few and will tell true, the laughs kept coming. And the guests were most interesting. I got a new respect for Justin Timberlake from watching him play off Alan. Mr. Timberlake can do 'funny' and 'serious'. There are loads more BIG American Stars that grace the couch on the chat show and they all seem to have quite a giggle.
It is pure rubbish telly and I love it. I rather think you will as well, or I do not know me readers...
The above is a snapshot of folks reading me blog one hour ago. Gobsmacked I am. Who would think that so many would want to follow the adventures of this old geezer?
The map of world brings up 'flags' to show where the hits are coming from and there are times that one sees 'flags' in the middle of the 'Atlantic', a very bored person on a ship no doubt...
Which all goes to prove that the old geezer can not be sitting in the dark clicking a button to generate 'hits' from outside his cave. There be some who believe that...
In the words of Thelma Desmond in 'Sunset Blvd'; "I owe it all to the little people, sitting in the dark"...
