It seems like only yesterday that SHARLA CARTNER was flying into SFO and getting ready to spend her holiday exploring the West Coast of the United States. Well it is now almost 2 1/2 months later and she is back at home in Australia.. During her stay in the USA she got to see GREEN DAY 3X - once in Seattle at the start of their tour and then again in August in San Jose and in San Diego where she had a VIP pass... Thanks to my favorite guy in GREEN DAY - MIKE DIRNT'S cousin STEVE... She also got to see RANCID and RISE AGAINST in Oakland, WHITE TRASH DEBUTANTES in Pomona and Hollywood, ALL in Hollywood, THE ZEROS, THE LEWDand DEAD TO ME at Gilman Street in Berkeley not mention so many other bands.. She attended the Tribute to Actor JOE DALLESANDRO at The Castro Theater thanks to the wonderful KATHY PECK. There she met KATHY PECK, CRAIG POP ARTIST along with JOE & KIM DALLESANDRO. .. She ate one of her best meals ever at San Francisco's own PUERTO ALEGRE where she met DEBBIE and LORENZO.... She then drove down I- 5 to Hollywood with TINA BUTLER where she met all sorts of folks like FAROH, PAULEY PERRETTE, MICHAEL BOSSMAN, KENNON RAINES, STACY TUTTLE, PAULI GRAY, ERIC BORTZ, THE EX GENTLEMEN, PASTOR DAVE & BECKY STAMBAUGH, TIM TUTTLE, AARON C, AMY TALASKA, RAQUEL, ATRON, MIKE & KARLA MCLEOD, EVACUATE, THE SWEDISH TRIPLETS, MARCEL, LOUIE from Ralph's, DINO, FRANCO, JOHN, GEOFFREY, CHELSEA ROSE, PISS N BLOOD, THE HORROR SQUAD, 3808, THE FLAMETHROWERS, JOE BLACK, TYLER and the list goes on... Then on impulse she drove to Las Vegas where she spent 5 sun soaked days and then she returned to the mild climate of Berkeley which was her home base for her stay in the USA.. In August she then went to San Jose and she had to admit that the Hotel Room she booked there was the best one on her Holiday.. She then headed south San Diego.. She wishes that she had more time to see San Diego as it was so fun... She partied hard at the GREEN DAY show and then she headed back to the Bay Area a few days before she flew back home.. Before leaving she did get to interview MINUS ONE so please look for that interview in this issue.. The hardest part of the return trip was the day she lost because of the time changes... We ALL are gonna miss you SHARLA.. You touched all our hearts... But she assured us that she WILL be back ... Who would have thought a stupid reality show would create such a sad drama.. Who would have thought the VHI Reality Show "MEGAN NEEDS A MILLIONAIRE" had a killer in it's cast... Canadian Millionaire RYAN JENKINS had met JASMINE FIORE in a Las Vegas Strip Bar and married her after knowing her just a couple weeks. However reports say that the marriage had been annulled but they had recently reconciled.. JENKINS had taken FIORE to San Diego for a Gambling Tournament. He was caught on video tape entering the hotel with her. However she was not with him checking out. However he was carrying the suitcase she had checked in with.... Upon returning to LA he called the Police and reported her missing but after a body had been discovered in a dumpster and Police wanted to ask him question he had vanished.. The body that had been discovered in that dumpster in Buena Park, CA was JASMINE FIORE sadly the body was unidentifiable from the beating she took, all of her teeth had been extracted and her fingers had been chopped off.. However she had Breast Implants with a serial number that was traced back to JASMINE FIORE.. An all points bulletin was posted for JENKINS and his vehicle was found in WA where he then rented a boat to the Canadian border he then walked over the border into Canada.. Authorities assumed that he had fled to Central or South America until the Manager of The Thunderbird Motor Inn in Hope, Canada found his dead body hanging in the closet. He had check into the seedy drug infested hotel with a mystery Blonde Woman who paid cash for the room while he stayed in the car.. Ironically she parked the car next to a dumpster... People at the Thunderbird said he looked nothing like he did in the photo's on TV.. Dressed in Thrift Store clothing and unkempt.. When he failed to check out after a three day stay that is when his body was found.. What a tragedy.. One good thing is that the show MEGAN NEEDS A MILLIONAIRE has been axed by VH1... MERI ST MARY is in Hollywood Livin' Lavida Loca. and staying with her pal ELLEN VINISKY..She is getting together with all sorts of fun folks like JANET CUNNINGHAM, JOHN POCHNA, BRUCE KALBERG, TEQUILA MOCKING BIRD, DON BOLLES, MAGGIE, HELLIN KILLER, PAT SMEAR, KEITH MORRIS, GREG GARDNER, ANDRE and myself...MERI, BRUCE KALBERG ( a huge KATHY GRIFFIN fan) and I had a great time having lunch and chatting for 3 hours at THE CASBAH in Silver Lake......

It is sooo nice to be in contact with JAMIE DRUMMOND again she is such a delight...

Also a heads up to PAMELA TORRES for all her reviews and the Interview with THE CINEMA SNOB... Please also read the article that KHAOS MCLEOD and WENDY THIRTEEN wrote about saving the COBALT in Vancouver.. Because of the Olympics the Slumlord Owner wants THE COBALT out because as he feels he can get more money... To make matters worse. Gypsy "The Tarot Card Reader" who spent most of his time in LA in jail- is back in Vancouver spreading his tall tales about an "imaginary suite" at The Cobalt Hotel with long luxurious snow white shag carpeting along with a large screen TV .. He swears that WENDY is being evicted because she has changed the locks on the suite one to many times... Speaking of which where is PAT CROWE?? GERRY JENN WILSON sent text and photo's about the "I Survived Punk Party/ Reunion" and it sounded like a blast was had by all in Vancouver..

GAYE ANN BRUNO is happier than ever with her job at CBS contrary to rumors that she had been laid off.. NOT TRUE!! Plus is also happy with her work with TERRI NUNN and BERLIN. She set up a European Tour and landed her a Record Deal. ...She did tell me that she is in a quandary about going back to being the Talent Coordinator for this years LA Pride because of all the budget cutbacks...

SMILE EMPTY SOUL have released a video for their hit "Don't Ever Leave" which features Actor SEAN FARRIS who won an MTV Video Award for his role in "NEVER BACK DOWN" .... How many of you have seen "MY ANTONIO" on VH1? It features Actor/ Model ANTONIO SABATO JR... He is still quite a looker .. But move over SISTER PATTERSON (NEW YORK'S Mother) you have a rival with his Mother.. Boy does she look mean and scary!!! ANTONIO is a hunka burning love but Mama is quite a different story... She just sits at a Table glaring at all the girls with an icy cold look... I recently ran into that cute DEREK HOUGH at the same QUIZNO'S I had met him at previously located at Western and Hollywood.... We talked about the new cast of DANCING WITH THE STARS which includes DONNY OSMOND, KELLY OSBOURNE, TOM DELAY, MELISSA JAON HART, KATHY IRELAND, MACY GRAY and others.. I again told him my ultimate dream would be to have AMY WINEHOUSE on as a Dancer and as a performer... He laughed hard when I told him what RICHARD DUGUAY had said that they would have to change the name of the show to. "Drinking, Drugging and Dancing With The Stars".... I must say DEREK is pretty unassuming he was riding a skateboard... And for the record he is about 5ft 10 not 5Ft 6 as many people report.. He was wearing Tennis Shoes... I also had the pleasure of meeting Actor TERRENCE KNOX on the Metro Underground.. We began chatting about idle things and then he told me about where he lived.. I asked him what he did and he mentioned he was an actor and that he had starred on "TOUR OF DUTY" and "ST. ELSEWHERE".. He is a really nice down to earth guy... I told him that I helped JONATHAN GRIES with his lines when he guest stared on "TOUR OF DUTY" and had met an Actor named STEPHEN CAFFEY who had been on ALL MY CHILDREN... I later found out that KIM DELANEY was also on the show... She of course was JENNY GARDNER when my pal DOROTHY LYMAN portrayed her Mama OPAL GARDNER on ALL MY CHILDREN... Speaking of which on January 4 AMC is moving to LA to film... Which means we will be seeing SUSAN LUCCI alot more in Hollywood... MAGGIE from TWISTED ROOTS is back in LA living... But Where is OSO???? SLICK 46 have added a female bass player named FLEA who hails from from Melbourne Australia and they have a new EP out..

MORGANA WELCH and UNEVEN STEVEN both enjoyed a photo of a very young ROBERT PLANT I posted My Space.. He does look great! I sure hope LISA BOOTH gets her writing groove back soon.. We miss her alot at PUNK GLOBE! GEZA X'S Fiance LARVA had a wild and outrageous Fashion Show at THE HOLLYWOOD SOCIAL CLUB and I rode in style to the Red Carpet Event with JOSIE COTTON, GIDDLE PARTRIDGE, GEXA X, DON BOLLES and his lovely daughter in a Plush Leopard Limo...Everything was Leopard the full limo, carpets, glasses everything was Leopard... ..

NANCY JACKSON had a rip roaring good time celebrating her Birthday a bit late at THE WHITE TRASH DEBUTANTES, U.K. SUBS show in Fairfax..... Having TUC WATKINS back on ONE TO LIVE has been a sheer delight.. I am also very happy to see the fabulous Medium DELPHINA back on the set.. They both chew up every scene they are in.. When the show went back to the 60's a year or so ago DELPHINA was in Drag portraying a Male Fortune Teller equally the scene stealer she is as her Female counterpart....... It is also y a GREAT pleasure to watch characters like DORIAN LORD, BLARE KRAMER, ROXY BALSAM, SCHUYLER JOPLIN, GIGI MORASCO, MARKO RIVERA, REX BALSAM, MATTHEW BUCHANAN and VIKKI BANKS showcasing their immense talent...
