Celebrity Air Hostess PAM ANN Launches
Worldwide Tour of Her New Hilarious One-Woman Show in New York,

“AROUND THE WORLD”



Inspired by the title song of ABC-TV’s Pan Am, comedian Pam Ann returns to NYC to launch the worldwide tour of her brand new one-woman show, “All Around the World”. Dubbed the original queen of the skies, Pam Ann continues to take passengers on thrill rides at thirty thousand feet above ground in all her raucous productions. Says the Sydney Morning Herald, “Glamorous, vicious, camp and larger than life, the bitchy yet heart-warming trolley dolly in tight candy-pink uniform, enormous hair, huge lashes and disco boots rules the skies.” So shut the F**k up, sit the F**k down, lock your seats in the upright position and prepare for the ride of your life. PAM ANN – AROUND THE WORLD crash-lands at The Triad NYC every Thursday in February at 9pm. The Triad NYC is located at 158 West 72nd Street (2nd Floor)

KEEP UP THE PRESSURE--IT SEEMS TO BE WORKING!



FROM ROOTSACTION:

A sweetheart "settlement" between the White House and big banks guilty of mortgage fraud has at least been delayed. Now that a new investigation of the banks has been announced, we need to increase our pressure -- especially when President Obama, in his State of the Union, is still blaming borrowers for taking out loans they couldn't afford. We can’t let the big banks off the hook. Tens of thousands of us have already contacted state Attorneys General to block a White House/bankster sweetheart deal. Please join us, and please forward this to your friends.

------------------------------------

The Obama Administration has been working on a sweetheart mortgage fraud settlement with the big banks, but attorneys general in several states are pushing back.

Encourage leading attorneys general to stand strong.

Obama's speeches stress fairness and equality, but a settlement granting immunity to big banks is not fair.

Robosigning and other fraudulent practices are ongoing. The White House is offering the banks a plea bargain in the middle of a crime spree. We must insist that:

the fraud be stopped;
the amounts under discussion for a possible settlement be rejected as way too small;
a serious and fast investigation of the big banks be launched;
no immunity from prosecution be granted;
the current $750 billion in negative home equity be written down, beginning with mortgages owned by the banks rather than pension funds or other investors;
the Obama administration comply with Freedom of Information requests for information on its secret negotiations with banks in this matter.
Attorneys general in Delaware, New York, Massachusetts, Nevada, California, and other states are pushing in the right direction.

Tell leading attorneys general not to settle for less than an adequate settlement.

DRONES W/FACIAL RECOGNITION IN NYC?



DOUG SHINGLETON: "NYC can now follow you via drones after the facial recognition software, purchased in 2008, detects you from the network of security, and city installed cameras was set up in 2005. all of these initiatives need is one mayor, governor or president to negotiate collusion into an action. These laws, combined with alleviation of our rights to Due Process, as enacted by signing of NDAA on Dec 31, 2011; Are the exact types of laws enacted in setup to the worst annihlization of people in the 20th Century. The only difference between Germany in the early 1900's and USA of 2000's is that we have not identified who will be mass exterminated yet."

BUNNY NOTE: I believe that London's extensive surveillance system was revealed to yield no significant # of arrests and therefore regarded as a waste of time. Unless, catching crooks isn't their goal...

CBS: Is The NYPD Experimenting With Drones Over The City? Evidence Points To Yes
Miami, Cities In Texas Also Said To Be Trying This New Way To Be Eye In The Sky

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — They’re used in war zones for surveillance and military strikes.

But are there plans to deploy drones in the Big Apple to keep an eye on New Yorkers?

More and more people believe it’s inevitable, reports CBS 2’s Don Dahler.

Drones are unmanned aircraft that can fly at low altitudes and shoot live video — or shoot live missiles.

Surveillance cameras already dot the city’s streets, but is the NYPD exploring the use of even more eyes in the skies, in the form of drones? Some evidence points to yes.

LYPSINKA AS JOAN CRAWFORD!

HOLD OBMAMA TO HIS PROMISE AT SOTU

Finally some good news. LET'S MAKE IT STICK!

Forty-eight hours ago, as state Attorneys General and the Obama Administration met in Chicago, it seemed a near certainty that the President would announce a weak, sweetheart foreclosure settlement with big banks during the State of the Union.

But last night, it was clear that President Obama had heard the calls of the 99%. In the speech, the President announced a full, federal investigation into the fraudulent activities of big banks.

A big congratulations to all of you who took action to achieve this amazing victory. It was because of you and work that we have gotten to this important step in holding the Wall Street and the 1% responsible for our economic crisis accountable.

But the fight doesn’t stop here. The big banks are powerful and they will do anything to stop this investigation in its tracks. We need the administration’s full resources brought to the investigation to make sure it uncovers the truth about the activities of the big banks. We also know that we need at least $300 billion in principal reduction to reset the housing market and rebuild the economy.

Can you contact President Obama today and tell him that we want an investigation with real teeth and that we need at least $300 billion in relief for homeowners to reset our economy and bring justice for families?

By taking action together, we showed the President that a sweetheart deal with Wall Street is unacceptable.

Now let’s make sure Wall Street is held accountable held accountable for its crimes and that we have an economy that works for all of us.

Thanks so much for your action,
Ian, Tracy, Ilana, and The New Bottom Line coalition

A REVIEW FROM THE JULIE BLOG

I said goodbye to Matt as we were walking out of the taping because I had to run down to Escuelita on 39th Street to meet my friends for the Lady Bunny cabaret show "That ain't no lady".

If you're in NYC or coming to visit- And you love crudeness and rudeness and bad manners like I do- You should by all means go see the show. Here's a link to buy tickets.

Linda Simpson was at the door and greeted me with a hug. The Cowboy from The Village People and Richie Rich were in the audience. The show is really action-packed and seriously nasty. And hilarious. And we are so going back. My friends who went with me both came out of it like "We're telling our friends and coming to this mess again." Amen.

BEEDLE-LEE-DEE-DEE-DEE TWO LADIES!

Lady Chablis meets Lady Bunny--this past Saturday at Club One in Savannah, GA. I actually caught my first glimpse of her when I snuck into a gay bar around age 13 and she hanging out with my favorite local queen, Chattanooga's Own Bubbling Brown Sugar and 20th Century Fox, Miss Tasha Le'ne Khan! Seeing them in action in the parking lot was one of the reasons gravitated to their world. So I was a fan of Lady Chablis long before Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil book or movie came out. She once performed at Allan Gold's and introduced herself as Chablis' cousin, Lady Ripple--who lip-synched to that disco song popcorn with her teeth blacked out and a crown hanging off of her wig. Lip-synching to an instrumental=BRILLIANT! Since then, Chablis and I have worked together over the years anklet me guarantee that she is as feisty and hilarious today. What a mouth on that bitch!

HILARIOUS!

DON'T SHOOT!

FAREWELL, ANGEL SHERIDAN!

THE END OF AN ERROR--I MEAN ERA! I am so sad that my friend Angel Sheridan, the boisterous emcee with the only hot glue couture who will sit and rhinestone an entire pump to match a dress, is leaving NYC and her long-running gig as headliner at La Escuelita. The place won't be the same without her and that's a fact. When I perform late night with the regular cast, we girls would gripe that Angel's opening monologue was running so long because we were eager to get onstage and do our thing. At the same time we knew that it was running long because the audience was loving her spanglish reads and unique wit. So if you've enjoyed this latina diva over the years, let's give her a fantabulous send-off that's worthy of all the talent she brought to the joint for decades.
