Richmond Shepard & Leslie E. Hughes in LORD BUCKLEY & MARILYN At The Richmond Shepard Theater 11/4-28 2009/10/27

Posted by Carla Milo on November 6, 2009

If you are in NYC go see my fabulous friend in her new play… Don’t hold it against her (or me) if you are one of the chosen ones called to the stage, forced to wear funny hats while being a human puppet for Lord Buckley during the first act.  You know I adore being a puppet for any man especially while wearing a hat that reminds me of BLOSSOM.

Don’t say I didnt warn you…Boop-boop-a-doop, boop-boop-a-doop!

 

LORD BUCKLEY

AND MARILYN

Lord Buckley,  America’s  Legendary Hip Comedian, Jazz Storyteller, Semanticist, & Sometime Philosopher died of old age in 1960 at the age of 54.  Marilyn Monroe died of a similar ailment at 36 in 1962. These two legends who shared a time slot here on Earth are brought vividly to life by Richmond Shepard and Leslie E. Hughes.

In riffs by the master of the “Hip Semantic”– a taste of the wit and brilliance of Lord Buckley, plus Will Manus’s play “Marilyn’s 2 Chance,” which explores “What if Marilyn had survived, lived  for years in obscurity,  and has decided to audition to play the lead in Tennessee Williams’ “Orpheus Descending” on Broadway”?

Playdates:

Nov 4, 5, 11, 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 19, 20, 27, 28
@ 8:00 p.m.

Richmond Shepard Theatre

309 E. 26 St. at 2 Ave.
212/684-269o  Reservations

$18, Stud/Sen $10

Some Marilyn Monroe Quotes To Get You In The Mood:

  • People respect you because they feel you’ve survived hard times and endured, and although you’ve become famous, you haven’t become phony.
  • Creativity has got to start with humanity and when you’re a human being, you feel, you suffer.
  • Dogs never bite me. Just humans.
  • I’ve never dropped anyone I believed in.
  • If I’d observed all the rules, I’d never have got anywhere.

Drug-Detecting Lip Gloss? Why Is It That I’m Unemployed But There Are Plenty of Jobs for Un-Fun Morons?

Posted by Carla Milo on October 14, 2009

I was reading this blog about this “drug detecting seductive lip plumping  lip gloss” and all I can say is the world is a lot scarier place than I thought it was.  Maybe if this lip gloss wasnt marketed as seductive then I could take it a little more seriously… I think its a perfectly good idea go out boozing it up with your best dick sucking lips on and then flaunt those lips to a bunch of horny drunk guys.   You dont even need that lip gloss to make those drunk guys pay attention to you in the first place.

Clearly a real marketing brainiac came up with the marketing plan for this product… It boggles my mind that this person has a job and I’m unemployed.

So according to this article you’re going to use your lip gloss to detect if any of the drunk horny guys at the bar put something in your drink he just purchased for you – oh hark let me consult with my lip gloss before I can accept this drink from you. So do you wait to thank him for the drink until after the drink passes the seductive lip gloss test? Lame. Seriously – someone needs to get a life.

A. I would lose my drug-detecting lip gloss after three tequila shots.

B. I WELCOME free drugs to be dropped in my drink – there is a recession going on and drugs are expensive.

C. You shouldnt be allowed in a bar if  you aren’t smart enough to watch that no one puts anything in your drink. Anyone who is really going to do this doesnt have much game in the first place.  I know I wouldnt waste my good drugs on something unless it was a sure thing.

D. If you are actually going to consult your lip gloss at a bar to see if there are illegal drugs in your drink then why not wear a neon sign with an arrow asking for trouble.  You make yourself a target by doing something that cheesy.  And you should be embarrassed…

E.  What ever happened to going out with your Wing-Woman?  You know that girlfriend who you watch out for and she watches out for you?

Wingwoman (from urbandictionary.com)

The female equivalent of the wingman, and the girls who are the targets of wingmandom. The wingwomen are frequently spotted around the queen bee, the girls that comparatively make the head woman look better than she actually does.

Check the product out for yourself…

2 Love My Lips, a British beauty brand, has just come out with a line of lip glosses ($16 each) with an unusual twist: its packaging includes a card that detects GHB and ketamine, so women can test their drinks for date rape drugs. The idea is to help women feel safer in social situations where someone could spike the drink.

I’m all for anything that helps women feel safer and in control of a situation, but the juxtaposition of sexy lip gloss and rape feels a bit . . . off. More importantly, though, the tester doesn’t work with drinks that incorporate certain fruit juices, milk, oily liqueurs, or tonic water. It doesn’t detect the presence of Rohypnol, either. (Drink Detective does.) Still, seeing the gloss in your purse could serve as a reminder to protect your drink and trust your instincts around strangers — which is never a bad thing. Even with its limitations, would you buy this gloss?

Drink Safe and Stay in Control Guide

2 Love My Lips Is Every Girls Handbag Must Have

Hopefully girls you will never need to use our spike detector kit as this is not designed to be used with every drink! This is to be used when you are unsure and your instincts tell you something is wrong

2 LOVE MY LIPS DRINK SAFE & STAY IN CONTROL GUIDE

• You have started you night looking fab dressed to impress
• Stay in control alcohol impairs judgement
• Watch your drink at all times
• Trust your own instincts, if you feel something is wrong, let someone you trust know
• Do not consume a drink, which has been left unattended
• Buy your own drink – it’s not just strangers who spike drinks
• Pre-book your taxi
• If you’re out with your friends all go home together
• If a friend/anybody is unconscious, place them in the recovery position – get help – they may require medical attention.
• THINK BEFORE DRINK THINKS FOR YOU

SELFCHECK PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

• Carry out your test in a well lit area
• The card contains two tests; each test contains two test spots indicated by a circle at each end of the strip
• Place a drop of your drink onto both control spots on each end of the strip
• Smear each drop gently over the circle, DO NOT MIX the chemicals from each spot together: use separate fingers
• Wait until the card is fully dry.
• If either spot turns to a (DARK BLUE), GHB and/or KETAMINE may have been detected.

WHAT CAN BE DETECTED
The 2 love my lips Detector is designed to identify the presence of Gamma hydroxy butyrate  (GHB) and Ketamine in drinks in concentrations likely to have an effect on the health and welfare of the consumer. The Detector may identify other substances but will not detect Rohypnol. Please note that substances other than GHB and Ketamine may render persons incapacitated.

ON WHAT DRINKS DOES THE DETECTOR WORK
The Detector is known to operate on the follow

Non- Alcoholic & Soft drinks
Apple, Grapefruit, Orange and Cranberry juice
Coca-Cola- 7-up- Pepsi- Red Bull- Vitamin water
Tea- Coffee

Alcoholic beverages
Beers – Straight Spirits – Wine – Champagne

How to test your drink
Using a swizzle stick, a straw or even your finger, place a drop of your drink onto the 2 test cards rub gently wait a few seconds until it dries. If either test circle changes to a DARKER BLUE COLOUR it signals that your drink is contaminated and you should either inform the manager or contact the local police. Your drink should either be retained for further examination by the police or be DISCARDED IMMEDIATELY!!!!!!

THE RESULTS OF THE DRINK SPIKE DETECTOR ARE FOR PERSONAL USE AND INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY. THE SUPPLIER CANNOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE CONSEQUENCES OF OR ACTIONS TAKEN AS A RESULT OF A POSITIVE TEST, OR FOR ANY USE OF THE DETECTOR OTHER THAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS INFORMATION LEAFLET

ALWAYS USE COMMON SENSE AND DONT LET ANYONE OR ANYTHING LULL YOU INTO A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY

NOT TO BE USED WITH WINE PRODUCTS CONTAINING MILK OR OTHER BEVERAGES CONTAINING MILK, CREAM OR OILY LIQUEURES, OR TONIC WATER, OR FRUIT JUICES IF NOT MENTIONED ABOVE 2 LOVE MY LIPS DRINK DETECTOR IS ONLY A GUIDE PLEASE LOOK AFTER YOUR SELF. STAY LOOKING GORGEOUS THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT!

Ridiculous Ways Men Get Women To Go Home With Them

Posted by Carla Milo on October 11, 2009

I’ve been single for a while and its been a couple/few years since I have gone on a date.  I was thinking about why I dont date… It’s because I dont like it.  I’m over putting forth effort and then getting nothing in return. I’m not changing my religious beliefs, past, political views, style, traditions, friends, etc. just to “land a man”.   Oh yeah, and I am definitely not ever going to willingly share a bathroom with one.

Gross.  I’d rather live alone with my dog and get one of those huge dildos that suction right on to the side of your bathtub/shower.

Just in case…

Dating is all about the gimmick.  Its marketing – I associate marketing gimmicks with CORPORATE AMERICA.  I hate Corporate America. I refuse to allow their traditional marketing methods have any kind of influence over personal relationships in my life and you shouldn’t either.

Is this another form of Corporate Brainwashing?

Think about it… when you first meet someone its your A game all the way… then slowly real life takes up too much of your time and eventually you just become another giant asshole.

Sorry but its the truth.

I think the only thing that can really hold the relationship together is charm. That is of course, if you actually have charm and you didnt use that as one of your gimmicks then maybe, just maybe you can hold it together. Even amazing sex cant keep the relationship together – it can for a while but in the end one of you will just have to move to another state or something.  Once you find good quality replacement sex you will be fine.

How often do you meet someone who you find charming?  By charming I mean you really like them (not because of his car, status, net worth, your stupid girl checklist for your perfect man, connections, car, etc).  If someone is charming you can fall in love with them over and over again. Think about it…

Read this article.  He wouldnt win me over.  These guys arent even coming up with good creative gimmicks. Ill get to the girl side of this another time.

Welcome Wagon in New Hood & First Improv Class

Posted by Carla Milo on October 4, 2009

OCTOBER 2 2009

I am on the J train on the way back to Brooklyn. I just finished my first class at UBC.  At first I was very certain I was gonna hate it but now I think its exactly what I need.

I was ten min late for my class, of course. While I was running to the subway Some nice neighborhood black guys welcomed me (whitey) to the hood. I smiled waved and blew them a kiss. There are very few white people in my friends neighborhood but its cool, interesting and definitely fraternity brother free.  I look REALLY white but I hate white people as much as they do.


During my class it was pointed out that what I was saying was very funny but that I looked down when I was speaking. I think my confidence has definitely been effected buy the events of the past year. I think if anything this class will tremendously help my confidence.

We did lots of different things in groups and I feel like im the weirdo as usual. I love the guy who is teaching the class. The teacher is super funny. Seems very honest and upfront about what he thinks and how he thinks u are doing.

Im a bit scared of my first walk from the subway to his apt at night being that I glow in the dark and all.  However, I haven’t had any problems so far. The best thing about his neighborhood is right when u get off the train there is a Popeye’s chicken. yeah…. biscuits and chicken whenever I have a craving.


Xxoo

I Have Successfully Escaped From Texas

Posted by Carla Milo on October 4, 2009

September 30 – 5-ish PM

Why do I always get stuck with people who are passive aggressive?  I’m in the cab with cab driver 1L76. He is going in the opposite direction that I told him to go.

I said BUSHwick Ave. Not FlatBUSH Ave… he doesn’t care there is traffic.

After yelling for the first $12 of my fare he finally turns around. He is not happy. He is driving erratically and is putting the brake and the gas to good use – at the same time.  At a stop light a nice man asks him where Bushwick Ave is and the driver tells him how to get to Flatbush Ave. The nice old man promptly tells this cab driver to fuck off and speeds away.

I’m DEFINITELY back in NYC.

I have arrived safely at my friends apartment in Bed-Stuy. It is very cozy and very New York. The neighborhood looks and smells like fall.

Bedford-Stuyvesant (pronounced /ˈstaɪvəsənt/) (also known as Bed-Stuy) is a neighborhood in the central portion of the New York City, USA, borough of Brooklyn.

Is it time to sleep now? I’m exhausted.
