Living “App-ily” Ever After

As regular readers of The Randy Report know, I spend a lot of time traveling. Sometimes it’s accompanying my handsome hubby on a press trip to New York City or Los Angeles with his clients. Or often it’s a quick trip in and out of LA to take care of my rental property there.

A lot of the time I’m living life as a guest in these cities, so I need a little help with the little daily things like getting across town or getting a decent meal.

There are a huge variety of apps you can download to them that are absolutely essential to everyday life. Here are some of the key apps I use to make “life on the road” a bit easier.

Sometimes for a quick trip to LA, I fly in and use Uber to get where I’m going. As most folks know, it offers a variety of options for travelers, whether UberX for low cost, or a larger, high end ride at premium price. You create an account with payment options like your credit card or PayPal, and then  enjoy your Uber ride and automatically be charged when you get where you’re going. Plus, you’re emailed a receipt for your travel expenses file. Couldn’t be easier!

Taking care of my rental property often means I need some help, and fast. Handy is a great free app for iOS and Android that allows you to search for and book a number of cleaners, handymen, plumbers and contractors of all kinds so that they can perform home and apartment cleaning services for your home. The service covers most of the big cities in United States, such as NYC, Chicago, and LA, as well as Canada and the United Kingdom. There is a money back guarantee, and you can access customer service for any and all questions and concerns.

“Cleaning out the townhouse” means just that. Including the kitchen. So, I rarely have food on hand to cook. When I get hungry, and I’m not feeling like taking a walk, I use Seamless – a free food and drink app that allows you to order food from local restaurants to be delivered right to your door. It is the perfect app for those who are too lazy to take a walk to their favorite dining establishment or who don’t feel like calling their order. With a few taps, you can quickly and easily order food to have delivered to your location.

Even though I have a lot of music on my phone and laptop, I always like having the latest and greatest on call. Spotify is a must-have for any music lover who prefers to stream their music. Create your own station by searching for a specific artist, album or song. There’s a premium version that lets you listen ad-free and listen to music while offline, or use the free option. It is available for iOS and Android.

Life on the road doesn’t have to be that difficult, especially when you have help right at your fingertips.

Feel free to share your favorite apps folks may not know about in the comments section.

Former THE APPRENTICE Contestant Alleges Sexual Assault By Donald Trump

Former Apprentice contestant Summer Zervos

A former contestant from the NBC game show The Apprentice has come forward with allegations of sexual assault by Donald Trump.

I believe this is the 7th woman to come forward with such allegations. For the past few days, Trump has denied any sexual misconduct on his part, saying he didn’t even know who these women are.

It will be difficult to make the same claim since Summer Zervos as a contestant on the 5th season of The Apprentice.

From the L.A. Times:

Zervos said she contacted Trump in 2007 seeking a job. They met in New York and he took her phone number, she said. He called before he visited Los Angeles, dubbed Zervos his “O.C. angel” and proposed dinner, she said.

Zervos said she was summoned to the Beverly Hills Hotel, where she expected to eat at a restaurant. Instead, she said, she was ushered to Trump’s bungalow.

Trump repeatedly tried to kiss her with an open mouth as she darted around the room trying to evade him, Zervos said. He also put his hand on her breast and thrust his genitals at her, she said.

“Dude, you’re tripping right now,” Zervos said she told Trump, as she sought to stop his advances. “Come on, man, get real.”

She said Trump asked her what she wanted, and that she replied she had come to eat dinner.

As they waited for room service, Zervos said, Trump told her that he didn’t think she had ever known love or been in love. Then she said he turned to business, questioning her as though she was on a job interview.

They shared a club sandwich, and Trump advised Zervos to default on her home mortgage, Zervos said, adding that they arranged to meet the next day at Trump’s golf course in Palos Verdes.

Zervos said she left the hotel stunned by Trump’s behavior, but decided to attend the meeting the following day after speaking with her father.

“I wondered if the sexual behavior was some kind of test and whether or not I had passed,” she said. “Obviously he still wanted to talk to me about a job even though I had turned his sexual advances down.”

Zervos went on to say she was eventually offered a position at half the salary she expected. When she continued to pursue employment with Trump, according to Zervos, he told her he couldn’t afford her as he was laying off thousands of employees.

Here’s the full press conference held today by Ms. Zervos with her lawyer, Gloria Allred.

Homocon Trump Supporter Attacks Protester At North Carolina Rally

More violence occurred at a Donald Trump rally in North Carolina as a self-described “Gay for Trump” supporter put a protester into a headlock and attempted to remove the protester himself.

The protester is removed by the police, and then two men (apparently a gay couple) are also ejected.

It gets sadder and sadder each day as the tone and physical threat of Trump’s supporters devolves further into the muck.

Watch video of the attack below.

This Gay Couple Supports Donald Trump

Wall Street Journal reporter Jason Bellini talks with a gay couple who say they support Donald Trump at a Cincinnati, Ohio.

The couple, who said they have “a lot of gay friends that support Trump,” also said they felt comfortable being affectionate amid the Trump crowd.

“Nobody’s saying anything about it,” they said. “No one’s stopped us or done anything, so it’s pretty good.”

When asked why they support the Republican billionaire, one of the men shrugs and laughingly to his bf, “I don’t know, why?”

“I’m tired of the bullshit government,” said the other. “I work in the steel industry and I see it hardcore with the trades and stuff. It’s time for a change. Trump’s the man for it.”

 Actually, it’s been noted that Trump himself bought steel for his various construction jobs from over seas.

The first man also chimed in with, “Plus, I really feel like he would bring more jobs to the country. The system and everything could be a hell of a lot better.”

ANOTHER Woman Accuses Trump Of Sexual Assault

The Washington Post has interviewed yet another woman who alleges Republican White House hopeful Donald Trump touched her inappropriately at a nightclub in New York City back in the 1990s.

Kristin Anderson was deep in conversation with acquaintances at a crowded Manhattan nightspot and did not notice the figure to her right on a red velvet couch — until, she recalls, his fingers slid under her miniskirt, moved up her inner thigh, and touched her vagina through her underwear.

Anderson shoved the hand away, fled the couch and turned to take her first good look at the man who had touched her, she said.

She recognized him as Donald Trump: “He was so distinctive looking — with the hair and the eyebrows. I mean, nobody else has those eyebrows.”

At the time of the incident, which Anderson said took place in the early 1990s, she was in her early twenties, trying to make it as a model. She was paying the bills by working as a makeup artist and restaurant hostess. Trump was a big celebrity whose face was all over the tabloids and a regular presence on the New York club scene.

The episode, as Anderson described it, lasted no more than 30 seconds. Anderson said she and her companions were “very grossed out and weirded out” and thought, “Okay, Donald is gross. We all know he’s gross. Let’s just move on.”

Anderson did not seek out the Washington Post to tell her story. A reporter at the WaPo heard of the incident from a mutual friend and contacted Anderson.

Anderson, who says she’s neither a Trump nor Clinton supporter, says she needed to take a few days to think about coming forward considering the media scrutiny she knew would happen.

Over the years, she’s casually shared the story to friends in regard to how women get hit on by “creepy older guys.”

Several women have come forward recounting alleged sexual assault by Trump in the aftermath of the now infamous Access Hollywood video where Trump bragged to host Billy Bush about behavior that very closely mirrors the stories now coming to light.

Watch a very credible Kristin Anderson tell her story below.

Ellen Highlights Hillary Clinton’s Impressive Dance Moves At Presidential Debates

While political pundits paid a lot of attention to Hillary Clinton’s focus and discipline during the presidential debates thus far, Ellen zeroed in on that crucial moment when the former secretary of state was able to bring her famous dance moves to the fore.

Later in the interview, Hillary spoke about Trump’s odd body language during the 2nd debate:

“It was clear that my opponent Donald Trump was going to try to dominate the space almost to the exclusion of the people who were sitting there. They were sitting there so we could talk to them. And because of the revelation of the public video and everything that came out on Access Hollywood, he was really all wrought up and you could just sense how much anger he had, and so he was trying to dominate and then literally stalk me around the stage, and I would just feel this presence behind me. I thought, ‘whoa, this is really weird.’”
