If I Could Turn Back Time...

Posted by: Susy Cruz | June 22, 2006 at 05:15 PM
Shouldn't something like this be held at the CHER-aton Hotel?
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | June 22, 2006 at 05:16 PM
Oh man I would be there but I am going to be banging my hand with a hammer.
Posted by: Addicted to 24 | June 22, 2006 at 05:16 PM
I didn't see anywhere that is said Cher would be there. I guess Cher's not sharin'.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | June 22, 2006 at 05:17 PM
I'm surprised that she, Madonna and Prince haven't gotten together to
do an "Old Hat, First Name Basis" tour.
Posted by: Pitty Pat | June 22, 2006 at 05:18 PM
Too bad I'm busy that day.
When is it?
Posted by: «LabSpecimen» | June 22, 2006 at 05:20 PM
You get to choose between tea, coffee, or water! A bit too crazy for me.
Posted by: Jazzzz | June 22, 2006 at 05:23 PM

A. Wait one week before going on Eharmony.
B. Wait two weeks before going on Eharmony.

Posted by: TCK | June 22, 2006 at 05:27 PM
They're going to have a Gregg Allman impersonator. How hard can that be?
Posted by: Mike Antonucci | June 22, 2006 at 05:27 PM
family??? what family???
actually that Cher Poetry reading sounds interesting...
*barf*
Posted by: Susy Cruz | June 22, 2006 at 05:28 PM
I'm astonished that there wasn't music with the announcement. There should have been music. Believe, maybe.

"Proceeds go to the Chilren's Craniofacial Association"
... because you're never too young to have plastic surgery.

That would be Children.

The Charity Dinner Event
Dress: Nice
I don't know why, but that just kills me.
Posted by: blurkernomore | June 22, 2006 at 05:33 PM
"Chad Michaels Performing Believe". I bet that will be a real drag..
Posted by: Sean | June 22, 2006 at 05:44 PM
Count me out - I don't have any nice clothes.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | June 22, 2006 at 05:48 PM
Hey if anyone wants to go on the Cher tour of LA I will be happy to take you and I will only charge you $30. That is right 1/2 the price they offer!!! i'll even throw in a free Dr. Pepper at the "stops". I'm sure they will allow my Toyota Corolla into Bel Air.
Posted by: Mad Scientist | June 22, 2006 at 05:50 PM
And what the person (not me) who thinks a wife beater, speedo and work boots is "nice"?
Posted by: blurkernomore | June 22, 2006 at 05:50 PM
Does "nice" mean a more expensive outfit than "dressy casual?"
Posted by: Pitty Pat | June 22, 2006 at 05:51 PM
Oops...toss an "about" up there.
Posted by: blurkernomore | June 22, 2006 at 05:51 PM
Annie-you don't have to dress nice for the tour come on down.
*looks for a Cher CD to play while giving the tour*
*realizes she doesn't own a Cher CD*
*Thanks God*
Posted by: Mad Scientist | June 22, 2006 at 05:51 PM
Oh God, blukernomore....gotta get that image outta my head! "LALALALALALALA! Not listening!!!"
Posted by: Pitty Pat | June 22, 2006 at 05:52 PM
Oh Man! They're not playing for real money in the "Cher Family Feud Game?! Well then, I'm just not going!
Posted by: Shane's Girl | June 22, 2006 at 05:53 PM
Sorry, Pitty Pat.
What I meant to say was a garter belt, sandals and one of those construction dude hardhats that holds two beers.
Posted by: blurkernomore | June 22, 2006 at 05:56 PM
Thanks man
Posted by: wdir | June 22, 2006 at 05:58 PM
Come on people! It's for charity!!
Hey! Wait a friggin' minute!! Isn't that Cher's daughter's name??!!
Posted by: blurkernomore | June 22, 2006 at 06:01 PM
Maybe it is Chastity.
*takes another sip from my beer hat*
Posted by: blurkernomore | June 22, 2006 at 06:02 PM
Jazzz: There's always the 'Welcoming Cash Bar' [oxymoron?].
24: E-Harmony gets a call while the FBI is still in the other room on the phone-tap.
Posted by: CJrun | June 22, 2006 at 06:31 PM
I'm a non-drinker, but if I had to go to that, I think I would start.
Posted by: Jazzzz | June 22, 2006 at 06:41 PM
And no, It's not a religious thing.
Posted by: Jazzzz | June 22, 2006 at 06:45 PM
Of the five Cher impersonators listed, only two are female.
So tell me, which is more pathetic: ten thousand square feet of Cher, or three men impersonating a sixty-year-old woman?
Posted by: Mr Death | June 22, 2006 at 06:58 PM
Sorry, Pitty Pat.
What I meant to say was a garter belt, sandals and one of those construction dude hardhats that holds two beers.
Ah, blukernomore, you have a twisted mind....I like that!
And how rare is it to find a guy who actually likes to play dress up?
Wait, don't answer that....
Posted by: Pitty Pat | June 22, 2006 at 07:01 PM
MrDeath, It's at least better than.........uh...sixty men impersonating three year olds.....Maybe
Posted by: Jazzzz | June 22, 2006 at 07:10 PM
Jazzz - do you work here too?
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | June 22, 2006 at 07:15 PM
i don't suppose there's a wake involved, is there?
Posted by: puppytoes | June 22, 2006 at 07:28 PM
puppytoes - not yet. :)
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | June 22, 2006 at 07:37 PM
A-W-B-H.......I'm a free agent. In other words, I can be bought(or sold).
Posted by: Jazzzz | June 22, 2006 at 08:11 PM
After your comment about "sixty men impersonating three year olds", I figured you were around here someplace. But I guess that could apply to many different places.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | June 22, 2006 at 08:15 PM
Annie, I asked you nicely to just stop it! If I had had a mouthful of beer it would have been temporary.
"Do you work here too," killed me. What with some science fluidity [or fakery?], and your wit speed I sense a kindred spirit. I'm not that good or fast with this blog thing, but I duck in here when I'm bored and it's great fun. I consider myself the most predictably offbeat, yet serious person in my workplace or client group. My clients usually love it, as long as the work gets done. My workplace, not so much. You inspire me to new heights of lows.
Posted by: CJrun | June 22, 2006 at 09:42 PM
3 days of Cher? I wonder what crime you have to commit to be sentenced to THAT?!?!
I'm guessing Aggravated Finaltourism or something as equally heinous....
Posted by: Higgy | June 22, 2006 at 09:44 PM
I'll be somewhere else.
*packs snorkel gear and raw chicken*
Posted by: fivver | June 22, 2006 at 10:16 PM
Dr. Alice -- That comment about never being too young for plastic surgery is only funny if you've never had a child who needed plastic surgeries.
Posted by: patient's mom | June 22, 2006 at 10:20 PM
Higgy, You could never get a conviction of "finaltourism" if, in fact, it is never the final tour. (final tour#1,#2,#3..etc.} Just as the gavel comes down, another tour would be announced. We will be driven to dispair no matter what road this dilemma takes. Soooo sad
Posted by: Jazzzz | June 22, 2006 at 10:23 PM
BTW, speaking of being somewhere besides a Cher non-event, Davy Crockett's 75th birthday is being celebrated this Saturday at the American Legion Hall at Florida and Sligh, beginning at 6:30pm. I recommend stopping by, if you have no plans. I first met Davy as a shy, lonely widower, around 20-years ago, when he was in his fifties and I was in my twenties. This party is being thrown by Lisa, Loretta, Barb, and Theresa, women that have grown to love him. He's a genuinely loved man and those of you in the Tampa area that never got to meet him, here's your chance. I'll be the geeky, tall, bald guy. This will be a hellacious party for folks that aren't posers. Davy never had much schooling, but he has managed pretty well.
Posted by: CJrun | June 22, 2006 at 10:30 PM
Sorry, CJ- the thought of beer snorkage never occured to me. As a kid I worked on my timing as my brother was drinking milk. My mom never did figure out why he had so many sinus infections, and he still has food issues (fat ones). But beer as a casualty of snorkage - the horror! Thanks for the compliment. I'll try to make sure nobody spills any beer. And yes, I'm considered funny/weird at work, too, although I somehow git it all done.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-har, har, har | June 22, 2006 at 10:41 PM
Pts Mom -
I know some kids do, no offense meant. It was a Cher snarkage, not a kid snarkage.
Because Cher's had plastic surgery, I have heard, and...
Oh... nevermind. I shal go and punish myself now.
Posted by: Dr Alice | June 22, 2006 at 10:55 PM
Why is Star Wars memorabilia featured in this convention? What the heck does that say about fans of either genre? Is Cher a genre anyway???
Posted by: Heffer | June 22, 2006 at 11:53 PM
I wondered the same thing before I realized it actually said Star WARES...
Posted by: Susy Cruz | June 22, 2006 at 11:58 PM
Parafin does wonders for the complexion, according to Cher's cosmotoligest. Embombing not needed at time of expiration. Place under glass and haul to S.A. in the back of an 18 wheeler, like Evita.
Posted by: Kathryn Clark | June 22, 2006 at 11:59 PM
Embombing...?
Was that a Freudian slip, Kathryn?
Posted by: Anniver | June 23, 2006 at 06:57 AM
Well, you know the male impersonators will look better than the real thing. They usually do. Okay, the professional ones do. You know, the ones that wax the chest hair...never mind...
Posted by: Charlotte | June 23, 2006 at 08:56 AM
If Jack McFarland won't be there, you can count me out.
I think Cher's supported that children's charity since she made the movie "Mask", right?
Anybody remember when SHE dated Richie Sambora? Before her time, that woman.
Half-Breed, Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves, Dark Lady...ahh, memories of my transistor radio.
{{{{Slinks away, feeling old....}}}}}
Posted by: Cat R. | June 23, 2006 at 10:19 AM
Parafin is excellent to preserve the skin. One doesn't need to be embombed if one is coated in parafin at the time of one's expiration. One can be preserved for years in this manner and viewed periodically in a glass coffin in front of one's most devoted admirers as an ICON.
HOWEVER: One must avoid extreme cold or extreme heat in order to remain cosmetically attractive to view. Otherwise, ICONS must exhibit some degree of immortality in order to be considered ICONS and worshipped accordingly. Thank you very much.
