I'm a fan of HBO's "True Blood." It's a love story about a telepathic girl who is half fae (fairy) and her vampire, shape shifter and werewolf friends. It has a lot of blood, a little gore and a bunch of sex. It's a fun and interesting series.
The other day I read an article about the actor who plays Alcide the werewolf. I'm writing about him, I should mention his name, Joe Manganiello. He's 36-years-old and a graduate of the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama. Joe is 6'5" and a good looking guy in any one's book. The article and excitement? He shaved off his full beard.
This mornings news:
"True Blood" Star Debuts Drastic New Look." Point number one, drastic is the operative word here. He couldn't simply acquire or display a new look, it had to be a DRASTIC new look. Naturally I assumed the story would be about Alcide and his clean face. It wasn't.
Ryan Kwante who plays sweet natured but a little slow on the uptake, Jason Stackhouse, one of the few 'normal' people on the series, shaved his head and is now sporting a moustache.
Beard and head shaving is headline news. Facial hair comes off and facial hair goes on.
Coming soon to a bookstore or e-reader near you:
"My Life As A Hollywood Esthetician" by Maeve Farnsworth. Read epilation secrets of the stars. Discover who has their back waxed and who has a star in the center of their bikini wax. Find out who uses Nair and who prefers the blade. You'll be amazed to learn which women in tinsel town have moustache's. Read about hairy knuckles and ears. Learn which stars aren't Hobbits but have hairy feet. This is bound to be the "TELL ALL-REVEAL ALL" book of the decade. Buy it, you'll be glad you did.
All of this noise about beards, bald heads, and lip hair. I guess when a person makes big bucks for pretending to be someone else, their private life is an open book. The amount of time given to these people will never cease to amaze me.
I wore a full beard when Wanda and I first met. I figured the more of my face I hid, the better the chance of a relationship with a normal type human lady (one I didn't have to pay). I really got lucky when she finally consented to a date with me. In hindsight, I was stalking her. She thought an afternoon movie would get rid of me. It's close, it's quick, she wouldn't have to talk to me, and the best part, it's dark.
Little did she know how charming I could be.
I had the beard for several years. One afternoon I decided to shave it off. It was summer, it was hot, and I'd dealt with it long enough. When Wanda got home that afternoon I didn't say anything, and neither did she. I walked around for damn near 24 hours, and nothing. Finally I got a little snippy. "What's wrong?" Wanda asked. "What's wrong? I shaved my beard off yesterday and you didn't say a thing!" She didn't miss a beat, "Well it just goes to show how often I look at you."
If this doesn't give you the creeps, nothing will:
Demi Moore Is Dating Father of Ex-Boyfriend....do you even care? OK, so's not to leave you hanging. He's a rich 66-year-old guy who is named Morton. The steak house and Hard Rock Hotel & Casino were once his properties. If this relationship doesn't work the grandfather is waiting in the wings.
Some of the more interesting news of the day:
Authorities in Sweden said they arrested a man accused of thrusting his genitalia through the mail slot of a woman he did not know.....it's OK to thrust genitalia through a mail slot of someone you do know?
Investigators said Kajsa Blomgran, a 50-year-old southern Sweden woman noticed a man following her while she was walking home. Shortly after she arrived at the house she heard noise coming from her front door.
The woman investigated the sound and discovered 45-year-old Helmer Boe sticking his penis through her mail slot.....she didn't know it was Helmer at the time. Actually she didn't know Helmer at all. And, even if she did know Helmer, she doubts she'd have recognised him. "You know, you look at a mail slot (mail....male, get it?) and see a penis, I don't know? You seen one you seen them all" she said with a Swedish accent.
The man fled the scene when the woman opened the door. Police said the same man allegedly exposed himself to a woman on the street the following day.....he's lucky his junk didn't get yanked off (stop-it) when she opened the door.
The man has been charged with two counts of sexual assault stemming from the incidents in July. He faces minor drug charges after traces of amphetamines were found in his blood.
The company behind the "Hello Kitty" brand confirmed a Taiwan brewery has been licensed to create six varieties of beer featuring the character's likeness.
The "Hello Kitty" beers, first introduced in Taiwan and later brought to China, is brewed by the Taiwan Tsing Beer Co. and comes in flavors including peach, lemon-lime, passion fruit and banana.
"They're so ridiculously smooth and tasty that one can barely tell they're drinking beer," Beijing blogger Eric Jou wrote in his review of the beer. "It's almost like drinking fruit juice, even if the cans do say 'beer.'"
Lawmakers in China are contemplating a lower drinking age. They say with the popularity of "Hello Kitty" and the "fruit juice" like taste, a 10-year-old should be allowed to buy and drink the new beer. There are many opposed to the lower drinking age. "If all these kids are getting drunk, who's going to work in the clothing factories? Our exports will go to hell," said one politico.

These two had a terrible night:
Cooper Kilmartin, 26, called 911 after an escort from Backpage.com allegedly pushed him and a friend out of a hotel room after refusing to give them change.
Kilmartin, calling from a hotel parking lot, told a dispatcher that they paid the woman $200 for services rendered, but when they asked for change she forced them out of the room.
"She just basically pushed us out and she was threatening to hit us and (expletive), you know?" the caller said.
They wanted police to push their way into the hotel and get their change, but that did not happen.
It is unclear if the men ever got any change, and no charges were filed.
Terrible, terrible etiquette....everybody knows the standard tip rate for a hooker is 18%.
Back Monday with more news and utter nonsense.
