I'm having the shittest of days, but this, THIS makes everything so much better. Many, many, many thanks! Oh, the 70's how I miss thee.

You're quite welcome...it's the least one can do for the hardest-working fangirl out there, who keeps up well-stocked with a wide range of fannish goodness!

love her accent

Moochi-moochie, baby doll. Hey I so went on a Charo spam-fest. I e-mailed all my peeps a ton of Charo vids. My favorite is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4mP_QGzFcmg

Sweetie...I've gotten fab responses. The gal can play an awesome guitar, huh? I love her accent. Goochie, goochie, babes.

Wow, baby doll, Charo sure can jam! Thanks for the vid!

That is my second Charo vid in just a few days. I haven't seen this much cuchie cuchie in 30 years!

You poor deprived thing!

p.s. Still working on the birthday gift. Honestly!

Yay! The power of Charo can do that to a girl.

Sweetie, one's day is always made better by adding a little Maria Rosario Pilar Martinez Molina Baeza. And for that, I thank you!

ps. I just returned from a trip to Boston to attend the straightest gay wedding ever. I danced with Aunt Carol and swung her around like I used with Maria Rosario Pilar Martinez Molina Baeza. It was delightful!

I knew you'd appreciate it, darling! Can't wait to hear about your trip!

oh god, that totally made my day

[identity profile] theholyinnocent.livejournal.com 2007-05-08 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Charo is a fantastic cure-all, isn't she? She's like a forbidden shot of tequila over one's lunch break, the shamefully warm, fuzzy secret that keeps you going through the day. Okay, I'm projecting. :)

Charo got back! And front.

[identity profile] badtyler.livejournal.com 2007-05-08 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
So that's where the original 'Bend and Snap'! came from... I knew Reese Witherspoon didn't come up with it on her own...

Loved the just-out-of-bed hair, too.

Although, I really think she should have been singing 'look at my boobs and let love keep us together'!

Teneille (sp?) must want to kick her ass...

:)

Bwahahaha...I think you have a new song parody in the making, Ty! Arriba!

Re: Charo got back! And front.

[identity profile] badtyler.livejournal.com 2007-05-09 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
Hmmm... you might be right about that.

You do realize that you tend to use that weirdly hynotic icon in replies to my comments?
And that I tend to sit and stare at it every damn time!

I may have to buy myself a tee shirt and have them put 'Violent Pizza' on it.

I really must get back to 'Peaches' soon!
perhaps SVU will inspire me tonight...

That version of the song isn't going to leave my head for daaaaaaays. It's the heavy accent. *not sure if I should swoon or not, but it made my girl parts tingle*

Do you realize you've just outed yourself as a Charo-luster? You may end up on Oprah before you know it!

Awesome! She's priceless. I fell out of my chair when she did the insurance commercial a few years ago (there has to be a you tube clip of that out there, too).

I'm going to have to be careful to not imitate that accent all day today at work. :)

[identity profile] theholyinnocent.livejournal.com 2007-05-08 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Yep, it is on YouTube:

I love that one...pity they didn't show it as much as the other Geico celeb spots, at least not in my neck of the woods.

I'm going to have to be careful to not imitate that accent all day today at work. :)

This from the woman who dares to take off her pants at work? G'wan, you know you want to! :)

Hey, THI, thanks for doubling my Charo pleasure. :)

From now on, I think I'll ask WWCharoD. She would approve of No Pants Day, I reckon.

holygirl, i urgently forwarded the "love will keep us together Charo" and received this ugent message in return:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTFq8QLKumQ&mode=related&search

Sweetbabyjesus! I want that woman as my guardian angel... imagine it: I am about to step into oncoming traffic, Charo strums her guitar and whispers... "Marrrrroouuukian... be careful, mi amor." ::another guitar strum::

Re: mi amor...

[identity profile] theholyinnocent.livejournal.com 2007-05-08 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
See, I knew you would come around and feel the power of Charo coursing through your veins! She guards you every step of the way, my friend. Why, the next time you are trapped in a terminally dull work meeting, Charo will be at your side: "Ay, Maroukian! They are cocoloco! Arriba, mi amor! Let us dance in the streets! Caliente! Tequila! Viva Maroukian!"

[identity profile] m0rrigan.livejournal.com 2007-05-08 03:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Charo loves us all and we love her right back. She's just so...unashamedly weird and crazy. What's not to love? I mean, she's got 5 different conga players, for chrissakes! And she ends the song with "Boopboobeedoo!"

Thanks for sharing, you've made my morning (don't ask me about my evening, there's no way you can top it for it shall involve...things...and stuff...of which I cannot speak without being downright ungentlewomanly). ;)

[identity profile] theholyinnocent.livejournal.com 2007-05-08 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
I loved the "booboopdeedoo"! So random, so ridiculous, so Charo.

We know you are nothing if not a gentlewoman, my dear. Of course, if we see photos of you naked, bound, and gagged on your blog tomorrow morning, I shall think otherwise. :)

...

I haven't quite reached those levels of (internet) debauchery, but I can say that our little faux-trailer, "Convixens," has now, by some unknown twist of fate, been linked from a site/blog called "I Like Catfights."

There are no catfights in our movie, only women kicking ass, but I'll let them have their fun, I suppose. Anything to further our internet superstardom, darling! I think Charo would approve.

[identity profile] theholyinnocent.livejournal.com 2007-05-08 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
"Convixens"! Did you post that on lj? I'm all sorts of curious now, because...well, women kicking ass...sigh. Hey, if Charo doesn't approve, Tura Satana (http://www.turasatana.com/) sure would!

[identity profile] m0rrigan.livejournal.com 2007-05-09 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
I sure did post it--aren't you paying attention? No? Distracted by Charo? Fair enough, I'll just link it here...

Convixens!

[identity profile] theholyinnocent.livejournal.com 2007-05-09 04:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Admittedly, and for a woman of my mature years, I am easily distracted. :)

Well damn, give you a fedora and call you Janice! You sure are a studly action hero! It was hilarious. I hope that when you hit the big time, I can be part of your entourage.

[identity profile] m0rrigan.livejournal.com 2007-05-09 04:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Pish. What kind of entourage would it be without THS? Or THC, for that matter...a bad one, that's what. The invitation's in the mail, sweety darling, just as soon as my contract with the Big Studio goes through.

Glad you enjoyed it. :) It was a blast to make and we're pondering turning it into an actual short at some point in the future. Who am I to turn down the opportunity for more ass-kicking? I just need to find myself a good fedora....

Two things

[identity profile] return2zero.livejournal.com 2007-05-08 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
First, I'm having the same posting-video trouble with youtube.com (those fuckers) that you had...

Secondly, PLEASE write a piece using Charo and that accent! THIS ("Ay, Maroukian! They are cocoloco! Arriba, mi amor! Let us dance in the streets! Caliente! Tequila! Viva Maroukian!" ) had me laughing my head off!!!

Re: Two things

[identity profile] theholyinnocent.livejournal.com 2007-05-08 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I think the problem lies with lj and not YouTube...my theory is that lj is screwing w/the embedding codes used to post YouTube clips.

As for Charo, ay, mi amor, I can only keep it up for about two or three lines! Cucuracha! Writing a zillion-page uber epic is easy compared to a sliver of CHARO-speak!

I feel like I should be apologizing to you both! Charo is a dangerous addiction, mi amor!
