Be shaken. Be stirred. A whimsical wham-bam of exotic enchantments, sleazy oddities, pop fancies, and swingin’ slingers broadcast from Ridgewood, NYC’s very own Shangri-Lounge. Best served chilled, garnished with signature swizzle schtick.

G'day Pauly! Warming the espresso machine, while watching Gus curled up in the sun outback. It's 6 Celsius this morning.🍵✌😎🌏🐾🌞

Apologies, guys. I know I just played this one last week, but I could not resist! It seemed unavoidable.

Oh yes, you caught that little plug, WR! ;)

I practically only speak in typos, WR. Unless I have to be professional. 👼

Pauly from Clifton:

Hey Scott! Nice to hear that Gus found a nice sun puddle! That espresso will ward off the chill nicely, I'm sure. It's been sunny without a cloud and I'm thinking of taking the show outside and sharing with my neighbors.

Pauly, if your neighbors start throwing rotten fruit at you, please don't tell me!

Pauly from Clifton:

Shangri-La, mums the word! Although I will retaliate with cat box dregs if attacked.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:24pm
Scott67:

Go for it Pauly! The espresso is doing the job, & I will join Gus in the sunny yard soon too.👣🐾

shangri-lounge:

Hahaha, yesss. That stuff's gotta be useful for somethin', Pauly! How is your cat handling the canned cat food shortage?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:34pm
Pauly from Clifton:

Shangri-La, my girl, Lemon, is very picky. Not much wet food she likes. Moosh, my big boy, on the other hand, is a mini-mountain cat. He'll eat anything and I keep the wet food to a minimum. In short, weathering it OK in these parts!

shangri-lounge:

Aw, Lemon and Moosh, what a pair!
Avatar 6:37pm
shangri-lounge:

My cat Otto will start a mutiny without his Friskies Garden Greens - it's the only wet food he'll eat. And, he loves the gravy. I wish I knew what the "greens" consisted of.

Hearing Belafonte sent me to Wikipedia to check and while coconut water does have some iron, the minerals most present are magnesium and manganese. Somewhat more challenging to the lyricist...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:48pm
Pauly from Clifton:

The cats and doggos I've been had the pleasure of knowing all love the gravy. None of that pate! Sounding great outside, BTW. No fruit bombs! Yet.

I was considering making a licensing deal between Belafonte and one of the mega conglomerates masquerading as natural coco water producer and wanted to be sure of my selling points.

Agreed, Eric. Groovy Tuesday.

And "The Fantastic World of Kitten Sparkles" makes sense now following the ambient world of "Primal Ice Cream."
