The Katz' Meow: Just when you least expect it, the best is yet to come!

Well, I needn’t have worried about romance coming along with our chilly fall, because so far things are humming along quite warmly. For those of you who have begun the fall season with a new love interest at work, or in the hood, but have been out of the game so long you aren’t sure whether it’s the real thing or your new antidepressants kicking in, I have compiled a Top Ten list for “singletons” like myself, who’ve been lonely too long, here is the:

Top Ten Ways To Know if You Are In Love Again:

1. Workout mantra changes from “Must achieve overall fitness and good health” to “How will this exercise affect my butt or pecs?”

2. You replace the sexy lingerie you’ve never worn with tags still on them with new sexy lingerie you’ll probably never wear.

3. You begin listening to sappy love songs without grunting “Yeah-rrrright!”

4. Your friends treat you for a severe case of “mention-itis”; i.e. “Oh my God, I can’t believe you said that because (insert new baby love’s name here) loves crab legs, boxcar racing, and stamp collecting, tooooo!”

5. You seriously consider quitting smoking…anything to get laid again.

6. You show a sudden and inordinate interest in the grooming of your nether regions with the newfound hope you might actually use them.

7. You actually throw away all those pictures of the tainted love that haunted you and replace him on your screensaver with pictures of new, fresh, as yet untainted love.

8. You clean your bathroom - for real - just in case, baby.

9. You replace the dusty box of unopened condoms in your medicine cabinet when you see the expiration date says Aug. 2003 and buy a fresh 12-pack box of Magnums. (A girl can dream can’t she?)

10. You buy a case of new batteries for your vibrator - just to take the edge off.

If you checked off five or more of these in the past month, congratulations kitty kat, you’re in love again and your new antidepressants are working wonderfully!

You had me at “Hello”!

Taylor Negron at The Lakeshore Theatre

I knew our cover boy Taylor Negron and I would get along famously when he called me “Maggie May” and revealed that he had Barbara Streisand’s bathroom scale parked in his French castle - complete with the bagel crumbs! His new show, “Satellites”, lovingly backed up by world class violinist, Lili Haydn, is a treat for the ears, heart and brain, and explores a personal side of this gifted writer and performer that his fans have never gotten to experience. Be sure to get your tickets for his Lakeshore Theater appearances on November 23 and 25th!

“Naughty, naughty, cute and horny” - Kim Katz arm-wrestles Carrot Top!

Exclusive New BuzzNews.TV Video Interview!

When Scott Thompson, a.k.a. Carrot Top, invited me into his private dressing room for our interview, turned down the lights, lit candles and put on some groovy music, I knew this would be an interview to remember. It turned out to be the longest and funniest interview we’ve done yet and clocks in at astonishing forty fantastic minutes. Scott is simply one of the nicest people around and gives off an aura of real kindness that underlies his super sharp and punchy humor. Great conversation is a powerful aphrodisiac for us cerebral types, so ladies, if you love to laugh like I do, you better watch out because Scott doesn’t need magic tricks to seduce. With his lightning fast tongue alone he can talk and laugh you right out of your skirt!

I had just seen his show, now running at The Luxor Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas and was thoroughly impressed by his rapid fire, hysterical, and unique brand of rock and roll comedy, which includes, but is not limited to, his trademark ingenious props. Still wet and covered in soap suds from his fun, energetic and interactive show, Scott and I got down to bizness and talked all about his career, ongoing involvement with The MDA Telethon, and life in Vegas (including his much talked about and completely ripped physique).

Of course, when Kim Katz is faced with a handsome, talented man with man-muscles of such magnitude, she is curious like a cat, and so could not resist the pull to (amongst other things) arm-wrestle this magnificent creature. Mr. Thompson’s ample guns were cocked and loaded, so if you want to see who won our arm wrestling contest and hang out along with me and Carrot Top in his inner sanctum at The Luxor you must go to www.BuzzNews.net or to our new sister site, www.BuzzNews.TV to check out all four parts of this exclusive footage of our first, and super fun, get-together. Next month Scott will be our cover feature and, as always, you can check out our coverage of him any way your little bandwidth allows with print, phone interview, and video all available in our triple threat www.BuzzNews.net Multimedia Archive!

Back in Black -Don’t dream it, be it

Memories of the first time I dressed up at midnight and went to Coconut Grove to see Rocky Horror for the first time twenty years ago came flooding back in a happy rush when I saw Steve Hiltebrand’s fantastically sexy and energetic production at The Mercury Theater. Be sure to check out my rave review of “The Rocky Horror Show” in this issue and “Give yourself over to absolute pleasure…”

Bobbing for Musical Comedy with The Bobs

Also in this issue, my coverage of the superbly talented vocalists that comprise the a cappella singing comedy sensation, The Bobs.

Hope you are purring like happy kitties!

Love ya!
