Well as usual, Miss Vero was out carryin on and cavortin last night - and the night before that. We couldn't have been in two more different places if we'd tried, but hunnies we always do try. Let us explain; Tuesday night we had such a fabulous time at a little ole place called "Cosmic Charlies", which is located in what we like to call, the swale strip mall just south of McKee on US 1 where that creepy pyramid arcade place is near the DMV.
Beer and wine, rednecks and Drag Queens. Ah huh, that's right. Cause y'all know if there's a Drag Queen anywhere within 50 miles of Vero Beach, Miss Vero will find her. But this wasn't just any ole drag Queen, this was the fabulous Miss Kelli Randell, the "First Lady of St. Lucie"!
And there was a cute young Drag Queen and Drag King in the house! (A boy being a girl and a girl being a boy, for those of y'all askin).
And then the owner, a real fun guy named Randy, got dressed up in a Jimi Hendrix costume and the Redneck boys got on stage and took off their shirts and every one had a high-larious time, even the old folks at the bar who were being served by our fabulous sober friend Chris and had no idea that it was Pride night, not to mention the straight laced conservative lawyer, we brought along for fun, who joined in the party!
And this was a typical Tuesday for Miss Vero.
At one point Miss Kelli Randell shouted out that there was a celebrity in the house and it was Miss Vero! Everyone applauded and then one of our more concerned friends asked "Aren't you afraid of being outed in public?"
Miss Vero reassured our concerned friend that none of the County Commissioners or any PJ reporters were in the bar as far as we knew and if they were, they'd have a whole lot more to be worried about than little ole Miss Vero!
Last night was a bit different. We were at the fabulous (second) home right smack on the beach, of one of those international jet setting type couples, where the festivities were a little more subdued and we had a conversation with one of our dearest friends, who told Miss Vero that she personally knew of some one who had lost a hundred million dollars in the Bernie Madoff scandal! A HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS!
Yes, a much different crowd indeed.
Never the less, just as fun. At some point in the evening a few older beachie women were having a conversation, which Miss Vero happened to overhear and they were saying that they heard there was a Drag Queen show somewhere in Vero every week. Honestly we 're not makin' this up. Of course we directed these ladies to our web site for all the info, as we felt it was our responsibility, since they were wonderin' and all.
And we also ran into one of those verobeach32963 writers, who we liked very much and even more so when they promised that they would keep Miss Vero's identity a guarded and valuable secret!
So what did y'all do on your Tuesday and Wednesday nights?
And what are y'all doin tonight, have any plans yet?
Since we got up this morning at the crack of noon and are feelin particularly generous, Miss Vero would like to invite y'all to spend some time with us in a "Live Blogging" session this evening!
So here's how it works; At 10 pm tonight, we will be online to answer any and all questions and talk about whatever y'all like. We will be in the comment section of this post and we will address each and every comment, until we get bored.
As y'all know Miss Vero has a variety of interests besides the obvious (Drag Queens). We are very interested in local politics, cause as the ole sayin goes - "Even if you're not interested in politics, politics is interested in you."
We love Florida history and quirky Florida writers and artists. We are a member of the Museum of Art and a subscriber to Riverside Theater. We are concerned about our natural environment and support the Audubon Society and Pelican Island. We worry about our manatees and dolphins and the health of the Indian River Lagoon.
We are so liberal that if y'all call us a Democrat we are insulted, yet we love conservative Republican men, especially when they let us loosen their tie and make them squirm, which they always let us do.
We are terrible about answering our emails, although we do read them all. But the shear volume just overwhelms our Alkeehaul soaked head! It doesn't mean we don't love y'all hunnies, we do! We do! And Miss Vero sincerely hopes that this might make it up to y'all in some small way.
But most of all - Miss Vero is one who does not take life too serious and wishes that more people would just get over their silly selves.
So what do say, will y'all mix yourselves a libation and join us this evening?
MWAH!
Oh! And maybe if we're lucky LDouglas, Max Newport and Viv Vanvoot will join us!

I'll see you at 10 pm. Looks like my tylenol PM induced sleep will have to wait!
Some people have faith; others fake it. Some people keep faith tucked between their cheek and gum, though this leads to tooth loss and gum disease. I have faith that when you say, "older women" you are not referring to moi.
You can count on me Ms. V. As my friend Bill O'Reilly said . . . "we'll do it live".
I'm in for a little while anyway. I'm an early riser so most nights I'm usually in bed by 10 letting the drone of some documentary or another lull me to sleep. :-)
Well this is just fabulous, with y'all here, thank you so much for everything and Countess - you were certainly not one of the "older women" refered to, so you may put the royal worries to rest.
If no one else shows up it'll just be nice to have the Beach House group together for the first time
Hey there Miss V! I'm here... drinking and blogging of course
Miss Vero tries very hard not to "drunk blog" y'all have us tonight sober for a change - at least for a while...
Ugh. it's 10:01 I'm very impatient where is everybody
I never blog while under the influence either- who knows what kind of trouble I'd get myself in...
I'm high on Lipton iced tea and Nicorette. I stopped using tobacco products Monday morning so I may get a tad cranky.
Good lord, I'm only having one drink I'm not even tipsy enough to start a fight!
It only takes one strong drink for me. That's why I water mine down with seltzer or lots of ice. I think it's my low blood pressure. :-)
Oh Max, that explains so much!
We just tried to make the commenting easier by hiding the older posts, gonna check the invisible counter to see how many folks are "just watchin"
Better be quick. I just heard a lot of clicks... ;-)
Blogger took some time linking me to the comment page.......at least long enough to pour another drink.
Hey y'all out there! Arizonia, New York and Huntsville Alabama, how's the weather?
Miss Vero I have a question for you. Do you happen to know anyone as liberal as yourself?
Hello there Miss B.
I trust y'all have the Countess tucked in for the night?
LD, Anyone I meet who is as liberal as myself is just plain azz crazy! I think the Alkeehaul somehow keeps me sane.
Max, are you quitting tobacco products so you don't have to pay the new tax or strictly for your health?
I'm here - on the phone, aim, facebook, and blogging... multi-tasking is a must. miss v, I didn't know you were liberal?
I'd say drinking liberally, Mizz V is.
I don't have the tolerance for it to be my tool of choice to keep my sanity.
Viv,
Oh plu -leeze child.
Miss Vero is livin proof that everyone can get a long no matter what.
I would say that too Miss B. It goes hand in hand- or hand to lips.
Miss Vero will you tell me a bedtime story?
Viv,
What's date night gonna' be this week?
uh-oh. I think Max is outside lighting up...
Tolerance is something to be built over time, and Miss Vero has had a lot a time with Alkeehaul and conservatives!
Oh yes, a bedtime story!!!!
I think we should call in Big Daddy Jethro Bovine for a bedtime story...
date night is tomorrow. You'll read about it next week ... I've been ba ba ba set up on a blind date
Actually the Nicorette is more expensive than the pinch between the cheek and gum. Just figured it was time to stop. Plus the constant spitting was getting tiresome, although the chicks really dig it.
See? now I never figured Max for a smoker.
As for a date night... I have those almost every night lately - always on the scene... I should get paid from the places I attend
Better watch you don't get addicted to the patch. I know someone who stayed on them for way too long.
Jethro Bovine seems like such a gentleman. What a catch. does anybody have his phone number?
Viv,
Let Uncle JB tell you a tale for beddy-bye...
Once upon a time, in an economy far, far away....
Oh, wait. That's a nightmare!
(JB has been hittin' the corn squeezins this evening.)
Hugs
JB
Hi from your token unwelcome conservative. Just wanted to stop by to say how much I appreciate Miss Vero. Having a cocktail and enjoying not having to defend George Bush anymore. It was tough duty.
FYI everyone - poor BlessUrHeart has been in bed sick with the flu for a whole dang week, she apologizes for not bein around much.
He has someone Viv. Didn't you see his Valentines Day post?
Mr. Charlie, we like anyone who has a cocktail!
Oh Charlie! Is that you hunney? I sure have missed you! MWAH!
I was wondering where Blessurheart has been. Please give her my get well wishes.
Miss Viv,
You make a conservative good-ole-boy blush.
JB
I want a real story filled with drag queens and conservatives..
Should I have Paco make Blessurheart some nice Jewish penicillin and deliver it in his pool outfit?
I'm using the gum. Tried the patch once and had the most realistic erotic dreams imaginable, usually about women in my office. Made me blush the next day at work.
That must have been a tough job defending Bush. He's indefensible. Although I can think of a couple good things he's done.
Charlie hunney - y'all better watch out there's a new website coming out on Tuesday very underground Vero that will certainly ruffle some feathers. It'll make the Beach House look like Fox news!
Have you got something else in your tea?
But that would make sense- gum for chew...
I didn't see his valentines day post - will somebody tell me what it said? This is rubbish! Miss Vero do you know who everybody is in here? and we have no clue?
I think BlessUr Heart is too sick to even appreciate Paco the pool boy, poor thang.
What's this new website going to be called?
The alarm just went off.......The Count is up and on the run for the river to find Perch and Danny for a little late night dance. Duty calls.
Save the TaTa's
Viv hunney, you know who everyone is too, but you just haven't put the pieces together. Take a big ole sip of that wine and enjoy the ride!
Sorry Viv, I don't recall the details. Just that it sounded nice.
Ta Ta Miss B!
Just when the party is getting interesting, I'm saying goodnight too.
TTFN
Well we have more lookers than takers, I can tell y'all that.
darn it - I'm so oblivious to detail sometime... Maybe you can help me one night put it together. I'm going on this blinde date tomorrow - what if he's really blind?
This radical website is news to me, but then again I am the token conservative here at the House so I am in the dark when it comes to the liberal side of my little town.
Tell me more Miss V.
ggg louise, i stayed in tonight to watch everybody go to bed? hmm im going to have to re-evaluate this situation we're in.
What I can tell y'all about the new website - because I got a sneak peek today is that it's loaded with documents that the powers that be would rather y'all not see. Everything in one neat little package. But I can't let it out till Tuesday.
looking forward to seeing it. I don't care what someones opinion is as long as they have one and can defend their position. I find that I often date liberals their wrong most of the time but much more fun.
Hope your trip was successful. Sorry I made your supporters uncomfortable the last time I was at the center of cool. I won't do that anymore. But date night is tomorrow and I will be out both Friday and Saturday. Maybe Viv will introduce herself.
Once upon a time in the Land of Sugarplum Fairies, the fabulous Queen Kelli held court which was attended by her adoring minions. Amongst the throngs vieing for the Queen's favor were the Princess LiLi, the Lovely Conservative Princess, the Dumb-ole-Southern-Redneck lawyer, and Miss V.
Wait. That's reality. I'm so easily confused when the corn squeezins kick in.
Hugs,
JB
Viv, I'm sure a lot of folks are out tonight with their tape measures determining the height of their neighborhood stop signs.
Is my stop sign taller than Russ Lemmon? I must know.
sorry about that. They're
You'd like me too much, Charlie
You'd like me too much, Charlie
Max- I'm still laughing at ole Russ using the word "midget " in his article.
Charlie - y'all need to get over this thought that you're not welcome, hunney you can come out with us anytime.
Just ask Jethro, we have a blast.
You can say that again Viv.
Yeah, little folks don't like the word "midget". Russ better be careful or he might get a solid punch in the groin.
sorry to tell you that you missed a drag event. I was at What A Tavern Tuesday and the cast of La Cage showed up and entertained. They said they would try to come in on Saturday after their show.
Can't guarantee they will be there but I am going just to see.
Ok, can y'all just imagine a whole group of little people protesting Russ in front of the PJ on US1 ?
The visual is high-lariuos!
And remember I'm not drinkin yet!
Oh Charlie now that was a party score, the cast of La Cage! Dang.
They should picket and carry 13 foot signs (and hope that the wind ain't blowing too hard).
Singing "Follow the Yellow Journalism"?
How ironic is it that Miss Vero would miss a Drag event in Vero because we are at another drag event in Vero on the same night?
...and it was Tuesday!
Ding Ding Ding - we have a winner y'all!
Max and Jethro just made me laugh so hard my ribs hurt.
the times they are a changin
Speaking of drag queens, Michael Jackson is on Fox News right now announcing his "final curtain" tour. And not a moment too soon.
Miss V., it looks like a couple of fellows were trying to dodge your camera the other night.
Russ bores me. Call me when another teen gives birth in a bathroom stall on prom...
Max, those ole boys were so beer soaked that they were dancin with drag queens, my camera was nothing compared to the official photograher from "Out on the Coast" magazine.
Miss V,
I hate to abandon this Beach House party, but I have GOT to get me some of them patches that Max had!!!
Hugs,
JB
jethro, I'm thinking about joining you - i nearly smoked your whole pack a few days ago.. oh wait, I mean I DID.
Yeah Jethro, we've been at this now for a hour, it was a good run for a first try.
Thanks everybody for comin out to the Beach House tonight, maybe next time we'll make the time earlier and announce it sooner.
Thanks so much!
MWAH!!!
Viv, glad you woke up. What is a prom without a live birth or two in the ladies room.
Russ would miss it because he would be out in the parking lot counting license plates.
Goodnight you all and have a nice Friday and a good weekend.
Thanks for having us Miss Vero. I forgot to thank you last night...
Nature called, the cat was demanding his bedtime snack and I figured by the time I'd get back, I'd be out of the loop.
But I would love to do it again.
WELL HELLO THERE MISS VERO! As usual I enjoy reading your blog my dear. I am so blessed to know exactly who you are, considering the fact that a few people thought that I, gaychris of gaychris.com, was Miss Vero! :)
It was great to see you at COSMIC CHARLEY'S PRIDE NIGHT ON TUESDAY! It is a great thing that Vero Beach now has 3 alternative nights to go to. Kind of reminds me back in the day of the Z BAR.
This Tuesday night we have the amazing KELLI RANDELL coming to entertain the bar with her love and humor. KELLI is one of the kindest and most loving Female Impersonators in the area. She is always raising money for our community for homeless, sick, and many other less than fortunate members of our community.
Love bumping into you my dearest.
You are the bomb Digity!
GAYCHRIS
