Lunar Eclipse by Juvenal

I totally stole this from Juvenal, who will hopefully forgive me because I’ll pass along that his blog is full of pictures of Helen Mirren topless and next week’s winning lottery numbers.

For realz.

Also, oh joy: now I’ve got Bonnie Tyler stuck in my head.

hamsterdance: the gay porn version!

As soon as you see the gem sweater, you know it’s gonna get weird.

happy bloggiversary to me!

Happy Bloggiversary to moi!

Yeah. So. Given the technical issues over the past couple of days which I have not mentioned here strictly out of my concern for your joyful blog-perusing experience (because lo, we are all about thee on the ol’ raincoaster blog, I tell ya), I am not quite as thrilled and indeed substantially more downcast than I should be to be celebrating the first bloggiversary of the ol’ raincoaster blog.

Maybe that’s because I’ve had two hours of sleep. Maybe it’s just because I can’t afford anything less virtual or more celebratory than a jpg.

I know: I have a $1 gift certificate for Timmy’s, so tomorrow we paint the town chocolate-glazed! < /whine>

Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme performing Black Hole Sun

Steve! Eydie! Soundgarden!

Yes, really. Here is the immortal Vegas lounge duo Steve and Eydie putting their silken throats to that heroin-laced grunge classic Black Hole Sun, from the album Loungeapalooza. And this time no chipmunk effects. Lyrics over the jump.

And by the way, Eydie‘s got a blog.

Loungeapalooza, baby!

Oops, she did it again: Britney busts out of rehab…again

Britney, baldingYep, that’s twice in a week the demented ex-songbird has gone over the wall.  First was Eric Clapton’s posh tank in Antigua, but the apparent gin drought on the tropical paradise was too much for the delicate pipes of the mistress of the High C, so she bailed, flying home to LA whereupon she staggered around the Valley for awhile, shaved her head (the curtains finally match the carpet!), got a couple of tattoos, attempted to rent a room at a posh hotel with nothing more than a lighter and some pocket lint, put her new house on the market, and on Tuesday voluntarily went to the Promises residential rehab in Malibu.

Now ETonline says she’s out again.

Sources tell ET that BRITNEY SPEARS left Promises residential treatment center in Malibu, CA early this morning — less than 24 hours after checking into the facility.

Following the news that she was in rehab, her manager LARRY RUDOLPH released a statement Tuesday, saying, “Britney Spears has voluntarily checked herself into an undisclosed rehab facility today. We ask that the media respect her privacy as well as those of her family and friends at this time.”…

Oops, she did it again!
