Musical Monday with Duran Duran

I loved Duran Duran's music as a kid. I loved them as recently as 1993 with "The Wedding Album"... and then I lost touch.

I recently became aware that they are still making music, all these years later. But do they still have it? Can they still channel that magic?

Yes. Yes, they can. Today's offering is both one of the funkiest songs ever delivered by Duran Duran. And it's supported by a fabulous music video that's guaranteed to help stir the Halloween Spirit!

Making Friends for Life (... and beyond...)

 

It's the home-stretch of the '24 Election Season...

... and Flapper Fanny is fired up!

Halloween is coming...

... and actress/singer Vanessa Hudgens wants everyone to know that you need to start preparing for the Big Day and the Bigger Night!

"Halloween is my favorite holiday. I live for Halloween. I literally count down the days," Hudgens once told British comedian James Cordon. "And Halloween is not just a holiday. It is a season! It is a celebratory season to embrace your inner darkness!"

We think this means she might displace Vampirella as the Queen of Halloween this year!

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month

Happy Birthday to Lysette Anthony

On this day, English actress Lysette Anthony begins her 70th decade on Planet Earth. We celebrate this milestone with some photos taken of her during the height of her fame in the 1980s.

Both before and after her rise to and slide away from international fame, Anthony was busy acting on stage and the small screen in Great Britain. In recent decades, she's been a familiar face to viewers of dramatic series "Coronation Street" and "Holyoaks".
