The KMc and JT Chat Forum...soap talk! Sudsy! Scintillating! Surreal!

When you least expect it, doors open into new dimensions.

Especially on the Internet!

Yesterday, I posted a report on the "A.I.D.S. Walk" here in Los Angeles, and casually made mention of the fact Kimberly McCullough and Jason Thompson (two stars on General Hospital) appeared at the opening ceremonies much to the delight of the 30,000 strong in attendance to raise funds for the A.I.D.S. cause.

Shortly after the post, my blog stats zoomed right up into the blogosphere.

So, I clicked on the stats link to check out what was revving up my site.

I spied a referral link to:

http://z4.invisionfree.com/KMc_and_JT_chat/index.php?showtopic=42&st=1700

Ah, so that was it.

My post noted that sexy Kimberly and oh-so-studly Jason were at the opening ceremonies to discuss their characters on General Hospital - and report in to APLA - that they raised $73,000 for the cause.


Kimberly plays a character on the popular daytime soap who is inflicted with A.I.D.S. - and in a bold plot twist for a daily serial - has become romantically involved with Jason's character who is HIV Negative.

Perplexing dilemma!

The site is where fans of Jason Thompson and Kimberly McCullough offer up juicy tidbits on their fave daytime soap stars.

I LOL (laughed out loud, newbies) at a handful of the zesty comments at the site!

One comment about Jason's wardrobe, for instance, was a laugh riot.

"My god I hate his sunglasses. Did he buy them at WalMart?"

Yeah, it's those goofy rims, that are the tip off.

But, the fan was quick to note that Jason looked FABULOUS in blue!

Here's the part I howled over:

"He looks like he styled his hair to have that messy look, is that in or is it just messy? Hot either way The man is just a whole plate of yum."

Yup.

Just want to - um - eat 'em up!

The next fan was a real expert on shades, for some inexplicable reason.

"I hate the shades too. The best shades on him were the ones he wore at FITS SD in 2006 (?). Those fit his face just right. They didn't sit high on his nose like these appear to. I hate when he wears these kinds of shades. I like the close to the face ones for him. I hate the ones that have the shiney frames. Just keep it simple JT. Those shades on Kimberly, I don't like either, but those appear to be the ones she had resting on her head at FCW at the Scrubs event this year. They were the red ones, right? She wasn't seen wearing them at the event, but I recognized the sides of them."

You know what they say, it's all in the details!

I also loved the humor and the creative visuals tossed into the mix.

"You guys are quick Thank you for posting. 73 thousand dollars was raised? Wow!!! Great job everyone "

Then, as I scrolled down out-of-left field a real zinger hit my funny - um - bone.

"I like their sunglasses. "

You can come out from under the chair now.

Opinions are graciously accepted, 'ya know?

"It's funny because I think both Kimberly and Jason have a great sense of style. They aren't main stream, but they both have a unique and comfortable yet edgy fashion sense."

"I'm impressed with what they wear 90% of the time."

In view of all that was unfolding at the KMc and JT Chat Forum, I expect that if I were Jason or Kimberly, I'd really pay attention to what I casually tossed on in the morning.

Whether they know it or not, they're sending shock waves around the planet, at whim!

Whew!

I am exhausted keepin' up.

Will keep ya posted on all the goings-on.

There will be a shades alert in the future, fer sure!

Sunglasses...cool, casual, colorful! Out of the shade, into spotlight!

Ah, the lazy days of summer are upon us!

When I zipped into my favorite Starbucks outlet in West Hollywood, I couldn't help but notice the festive eye-catching shades on the snoz of one of the kids who plies the eclectic cafe treats there.

The quirky fun specs were somewhat reminiscent of a pair of poindexters, but the rims screamed out in a pop-inspired fire-engine red!

Very cool!

You know, since I became a transplant to sunny California, it has always surprised me how many people in the BIG ORANGE trounce around town - wearing sandals in open jeeps with T's off or with their top-of-the-line Benz convertible rag-tops down - without donning a pair of sunglasses for protection under the sizzlin' mid-day solar rays.

Vanity be thy name?

Yes, I expect a handful of Hollywood hopefuls are anxious to show off their pretty mugs in tantalizing Tinsel town where an all-elusive break into the biz is just a glance away.

But, for longevity's sake (unless you want to play character actors for the rest of your life) it's always wise to cover up when splashing into the zesty beach days of summer each year.

After all, treks in the scorching sun without shades get 'ya squinting - and over time - etch out some nasty crow's feet up-close and personal to your luminous baby blues.

Notwithstanding, scrutinizing objects in the bright sun without protection may eventually cause irreversible damage to the retina of the eye.

So, it's important to not only sport shades, but ensure the pair you snap up have maximum Ultra Violet (UV) protection!

But, forget rims in "granny styles". After all, wrap-a-round coverage is best.

Of course, there are many brands to choose from!

Ray-Bans, as always, are Top Gun!

And, in 90210 (Beverly Hills, dahlink!) designer shades with ubiquitous logos upfront and screeching "money" are always in vogue.

But, if you're on a budget or continually misplacing your fave pair (like moi!), occasionally - and for a song with a stroke of luck - you'll be able to snatch up a real snazzy pair at the 99 cent store.

But, scan for the UV protection sticker, please!

Another benefit of protection?

In a matter of weeks you'll also notice the texture and tone of the skin around the eyes noticeably improved.

It saves face! Just ask my pals, below.
