CEELO SLIPS OUT OF 30 MILLION IN DEBT. FUCK YOU, TOO

Why is that lumpy headed blob named Ceelo sticking his tongue out and laughing?

Because as the "Chief Creative Officer" of something called Primary Wave Music, he just ducked 30 MILLION DOLLARS in DEBT.

Yeah. The guy who sang "FUCK YOU" to a woman and had a hit with it, is saying FUCK YOU to a lot of people who trusted him.

I thought his "FUCK YOU" song was actually pretty funny, but THIS is not.

What it is, is just another lesson in how you can rob more people with a pen than a gun, and that chumps who think illegal downloading is getting even have real square heads. Not big fat well-fed round ones like Ceelo.

You think this guy is sitting around waiting for a royalty check on the few hit songs he's had? Nah, this player knows better. First, he copies a successful game from Michael Jackson. The King of Pop grabbed Beatles songs. Ceelo...bought up Kurt Cobain. Second, he established himself as not an artist, but a music pimp, somebody who could get other hip-hop, rap and trendy types into his stable for promotions, tie-ins, endorsements, fashion lines, all kinds of ways to make money on personality and not mp3 files.

Healthy bottom line? Even when you lose, you WIN. The guy was fucking up, but the suits and greedheads only saw "Hey, the guy owns Cobain stuff...and he can still get his sticky hands on so much well-connected talent in the black music market that is so full of bling and bullshit. So, let's get our bankers and hedge fund weasels to "restructure" his company and magically erase over 30 million in debt...

How do you "erase" debt? You tell the debtors to accept some minor amount, like 10%, or "FUCK YOU." Meaning, cut your losses now or watch the years go by in bankruptcy court, and see yourself at the end of a long line of creditors, and know that as you wait, a lot of money will be secretly siphoned out and even more taken by the lawyers (who always get paid first).

Next stop for Ceelo? A replenished bank account and more opportunities to throw money around. After all, you've got to be seen at big parties, you have to be wearing bling, you have to show up with an entourage, otherwise who'll invest in you? All he has to do is hint that he can get trendy friends to participate in "branding" and "promotions" for companies with deep pockets.

Best of all, as with expecting royalties on songs, the talent is so naive and stupid, they'll jump at these offers even if they are actually getting far less than they should. How? Oh, maybe Ceelo will tell Nivea or Chanel to throw a big party. They can do it. A gob of soap or a spritz of smell costs these companies a penny to make, and they mark it up to $500 with a fancy bottle and all the hype. They pay HIM hundreds of thousands of dollars and he invites a few hip-hop people to show up so they can get their picture taken. They do it free, or for a silly "gift bag" of Nivea and Chanel trinkets, and free hotel and transportation for the weekend. Ha. They think they did great. Ceelo and the suits did MUCH better.

Ideally that's how it works, but Ceelo and many others sometimes waste more money than they eventually get. Not to worry. Just do some more razzle and dazzle, show the bling, wave the carrot ("I own Kurt Cobain...I got Rihanna's home phone number") and the restructuring money rolls in. Till maybe somebody realizes Ceelo is yesterday's news, and there's some other pimp who has the latest no-talent all-bling idiot in tow. After all, Don King is no longer the big pimp in boxing. Even P. Diddy is old news. The music biz changes by the month, not the year or the decade. We will NEVER see a Clive Davis-type again...someone always in power and always making deals.

Ray Davies sang about the money-go-round years ago, but back then he didn't know how lucky he was. He had Warners behind him, and when he left that label, RCA jumped in to promote him (and even indulge in his penchant for poor-selling rock operas). Then a THIRD label (run by a certain Mr. Clive Davis) gave him yet ANOTHER shot at the money-go-round, which turned Ray into a disco "Superman" success. That was the old model. You create music and you get paid for it. Ray didn't spend his time wearing bling and endorsing soap and having wardrobe malfunctions and showing up on TV to judge shitty karaoke singers.

The music world has changed. It's not really about the music. Music is an accessory. It drives a TV commercial. It's background for a walk on the red carpet. It'll help sell the latest hand-held toy or a subscription to a "cloud" service. Did you know SONY is losing money on TV sets and stereo equipment? Nobody's buying that stuff. That's OLD media. All anyone needs is a hand-held toy that can play mp3's. SONY is being told to stop manufacturing TV sets and stereos and concentrate on computer-crapola and digital toss-aways and corporate sponsorship of rap concerts and award shows where blingy "stars" can show off their bling.

As Ceelo would say, "it's ALL good." Yo. But not for you, YO. If YOU don't have money, it won't be easy to find someone willing to set you up with a big fat bank account and second chance. You might have to go begging on the street, or to the government, and you might have to desperately try and sell your records and stereo on eBay for 10% of what you paid for 'em! But... maybe you can ring up Ceelo and ask him if he needs someone to shine his shoes. Maybe he'll say yes. Maybe he'll say FUCK YOU.

SMITHFIELD SWINE SELL OUT THEIR FILTHY PORK TO THE CHINESE

BIG news from the AMUSEMENT PORK

America's pastime IS eating...better to go to Burger King than a movie theater. Can't go to a sporting event without spending more on FOOD than on the ticket. Nothing to do? SNACK!

So this food news IS big entertainment news....here it is..the biggest deal since Yahoo gobbled onto Tumblr...

SMITHFIELD, one of the biggest killers of PIGS...has sold out to the CHINESE...the notorious country of rampant pollution, over-population and disregard for all forms of life animal or human.

American pig farmers have been known to POLLUTE and DESTROY lakes, rivers and streams thanks to PIG SHIT floating underground from their farms. They have been known to scrape up diseased porkers and drag them to the slaughter house. Despite the government trying every way to prosecute animal rights activists for recording and releasing films of the atrocities, the TRUTH is out there.

So you can imagine how much better things will be now that the Commie Reds own "the other white meat" company

Nice day for fans of Pork Fried Rice...and cancer.

"China's Shuanghui International moved to lock in a strong supply of US pork for the Chinese market Wednesday with a deal to buy US meats icon Smithfield Foods for $4.7 billion...."

Sounds like some kind of military attack, doesn't it? "Chinese consumers like American pork. US farmers want to export their pork," was the terse quote from Yang Zhijun, some ding-dong dung Zedong from the company.

So rather than just make a deal with Smithfield they buy the fucking company! Ah, so! Smithfield, Virginia, the "ham capital" of the country, may find their redneck employees slowly disappearing, replaced by The Shuanghui-nese. The need for Chinese consumers to have American pork could mean that it all goes overseas and prices for ham and bacon and other heart-attack producers will rise like cholesterol levels.

Am I disgusted? Fuck no, I'm AMUSED, because I do not eat PIG, and I try my best NOT to buy products made in China if comparable ones are made elsewhere. Like, in Japan.

TEMPEST IN A HITLER TEA POT! Ooh, naughty J.C. PENNEY!

The most amusing AND disgusting pop culture "controversy" of the month involves protests that cheap-o department store J.C. PENNEY shouldn't be selling...a HITLER TEA POT

It seems that from a distance, motorists in California instantly thought HITLER when they saw a Billboard sign for the tea pot. It's not called a HITLER tea pot, it's a Michael Graves Design Bells and Whistles Tea Kettle. But why would a big chain like PENNEY bother promoting a lousy $40 tea pot? Hmmm, antisemitism? Secret love of Nazis and bad haircuts? Maybe it goes so well with an (Eva) Braun toothbrush?

Thanks to this inane publicity, neo-Nazi groups are scooping up the tea pot, someone on eBay sold one for $200, and PENNEY has removed the offending Billboard, which will probably show something even more obnoxious, like a big picture of jackasses Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn promoting their shitty new comedy "The Internship." Their ugly mugs are currently nauseating me on local bus shelters.

Is it just me? I don't remember Adolf Hitler having a bell on one of his ears. I don't remember him wearing some kind of high school sweater with a big letter I on it. I also think he had eyes.

Yah, amusing that prurient morons would hallucinate Hitler when they see a tea pot, but disgusting that this stupid thing has become a collectors item and raised the profile for Nazi assholes everywhere.

STOP IT! DAMN IT! STOP MENTIONING THE WAR! STOP GOING AFTER GERMANS AND SEEING HITLER EVERYWHERE.

Me, I've got better things to do. The baby is crying for its Goebbels Baby Food, I've got to fill up on petrol at Hess, my wife is preparing for tonight's "Meet and Mengele" party, and I've got to make a back-up of this latest entry onto a CD-Rommel.

Monkey-Faced Aussie Footballer Goes Ape Shit on 13 Year-Old Girl

Aw, the big guy got called "APE" by a 13 year-old girl.

And so, like the rather ape-faced "Soup Nazi" of the Seinfeld sitcom, who used to toss people out of his store with a terse, "No SOUP FOR YOU" if they "offended" him, it was "NO GAME FOR YOU!" The kid was ejected!

Now, I have sympathy for any guy who looks like an ape. Or a monkey. Or a weasel. Or even a koala bear. Koala bears are cute but it's not a face a guy would like to have, huh?

BUT...isn't there a little something called FREE SPEECH?

Don't many people go to sporting events...JUST to yell and curse at the opposing player?

Is it SUCH a big difference if you call somebody a SHIT HEAD or a SHIT FACE?

Is it SUCH a big difference if you call somebody UGLY MOTHERFUCKER or APE?

Jim Rice, a (black) baseball player, regularly endured razzes from a chorus of fans: "WHAT COMES OUT OF A CHINAMAN'S ASS?"

Just one example of "fan fun," of which we could all pick dozens.

Now, should Jim have been offended, or angry ONLY if he was Chinese? He ignored it. He was glad paying customers were in the seats at all, maybe.

Watching anybody play a GAME is a silly way of wasting money.

Now, this Aussie wombat who got his pouch in a twist...I guess that's ok, right? I can call him a wombat. I can imply he has a pouch. I can imply that he has a huge hemorrhoid that acts like a prehensile tail and from which he can swing doorknob to doorknob at home.

Well, this wombat (NOT an APE) claims his feelings were hurt:

"To come to the boundary line and hear a 13 year old girl call me an 'ape', and it's not the first time on a footy field that I've been referred to as a 'monkey' or an 'ape', it was shattering."

Shattering? How OLD are you?

And how do you know, for sure, that she was being racist, when...quite frankly, you look like a fucking ape? LOTS of guys do. So do some women, come to think of it. The guy perceives a racist remark and that's good enough to start a fucking inquisition of a child??

So this guy points out the girl, the girl is pulled from her seat, GRILLED for two fucking hours...("Police in Melbourne said that a 13-year-old girl had been interviewed over the incident, but had been released after two hours pending further inquiries...') and she denies she's racist. Or at least, she's not going to tell any monkey police officer she is!

The Aussie in question cooled down a bit later:

'It's not a witch-hunt, I don't want people to go after this young girl. We've just got to help educate society better so it doesn't happen again. Unfortunately it's what she hears, in the environment she's grown up in that has made her think that it's OK to call people names..."

Well, yes, it IS ok to call people names!

That's our society now, Ape Man. I don't think it's right either. But legally, it's NOTHING. Judge Wapner of "The Peoples Court" used to point this out all the time. It is not against the law to call people names. Sticks and stones can break your bones, but names can never hurt you, the rhyme goes. Not quite true, it can hurt your feelings, but feelings don't amount to a lawsuit. Broken bones DO.

The question is WHAT ultimately is a "bad" name? You call someone a clown, and clowns get upset! Really...there have been many letters to the editors from actual CLOWNS, begging people to stop insulting their noble profession by using the term as an insult. The fucking Bozos.

A lot of people with dark complexions, hairy faces, and perhaps a too-flat nose, will insist any reference to MONKEY or APE has to be racist. Well, what else do you call someone like that? Giraffe? Stork?

He could've just called back, "Fuck you, you bald-beaver vanilla pile of mucous!" If he did, would he have been ejected? In some sports, you can't talk to the opposing player or referee and certainly can't yell any kind of negative remark.

OK, it really would be nice if people WERE nice, and if sportsmanship was part of sports, and if NO reference was made to somebody's difference in nose size, hair color, complexion, race or religion. But is it really less hurtful to point and make a nasty remark about a man's big nose than his ape-like demeanor? What if he looks like a proboscis monkey and has both?

The bottom line here, is why is it that CERTAIN insults have more weight than others? OOH, if it's SEXIST, or RACIST, then it's WORSE? Call an Aboriginal Australian an "ape" or a gay a "fag" and that's really worse than calling that person a fuckhead, a brainless pile of pus, or as useless as a tampon in an old people's home?

Making fun of your idiot race is WORSE than just making fun of you for yourself?? Would this guy really have preferred the girl, or anyone, to get more personal? "YOU are the ugliest fuck on the playing field!" Yeah, MUCH better! How about: "Your mother sucks cock in hell!" How does that rank? Or is that not such an "aboriginal sin" as saying "APE!"

We're supposed to put more weight on a RACIST or SEXIST remark because it shows intolerance and ignorance? Sorry, but so does making fun of somebody for having crossed eyes, a big pimple, a fat ass, buck teeth or every season of "Friends" on DVD. People demonstrate "intolerance" all the time. Should a gay feel offended if someone suggests that bright purple tank-top and pink thongs aren't right attire in the restaurant? That this is purely a sexist criticism and not just common sense? We all "judge" each other, and make decisions based first on appearance. You might be a gentleman even if you look like an ape, and you might be tasteful even though you were seen coming out of an Applebees.

The girl ended up telling a local TV reporter, "'I didn't mean it in a racist way and I'm sorry to the club and the AFL,' she said.

I think she added that "AFL stands for Ass-Fucking Losers."

FRENCH OPEN, EYES SHUT

It's TENNIS TIME, everyone. Amused?

No.

Is there any real surprise in seeing the same players in every tournament?

The "spectacular" plays they make...are like ones they made in the last tournament. And the one before that.

Oh, maybe there's a sudden death or an upset. But really, when does it ACTUALLY involve sudden death?

Or even an upset stomach?

Sharapova throwing up all over Serena Williams? THAT would be amusing.

The FRENCH OPEN is going on, and I'll spare you having to watch. This is what is going to happen:

On the women's side, a Williams sister will fuck up in the first round, and the other will cruise toward the finals.

There will be a lesbian in the semi-finals.

There will be some Russian-Polish double-ugly with a name nobody can pronounce in the semi-finals.

And she COULD be the lesbian, too.

The hottest chick with the biggest tits will be eliminated before you can say "DOUBLES!"

Lollipop-headed Maria Sharapova will not win. As usual.

Rubbery-assed Serena Williams will expose her rubbery ass, and you will LOOK even though you don't want to. Especially if it's TURQUOISE UNDERPANTS.

On the men's side?

People will still giggle and think it's awfully gay that men are "seeded" in a tournament.

Squinty, ass-eyed Roger Federer will wear a pair of Serena's turquoise underpants for a head band.

He will still lose.

Announcers will find ways to constantly remind everyone of the ethnicity of Nadal. Face it, tennis at this level is all about ethnic pride. People root for their own country's player, no matter what.

In this regard, Americans and Brits will once again sigh and wonder why the hell THEIR GUY never makes the quarter-finals.

Or, makes the quarter-finals only to be blown away worse than Warren Beatty in "Bonnie and Clyde."

Some very ugly Croatian will be playing and the announcers will mistake his grunts for him trying to pronounce his own name.

Somebody will point out that Jo-Wilfried Tsonga is such a silly name nobody should have to pronounce it.

Boris Becker will make one of his spectacular dives, stretching out and sailing several feet in the air...after slipping on a half-opened ketchup packet while trying to get to his seat in the fifth row with a bag of chips.

Somebody will point out Ferrer is not Federer and one viewer out there will actually know the difference and care.

As the non-excitement mounts over whether Novak or "Raffa" or Berdych will go all the way, everyone will be yawning and saying, "Well, this is all just a prelude to WIMBLEDON...that's the one that matters..."

LINDSEY VONN - DUMBEST GREEDIEST BITCH ON THE PLANET

Let's put it this way:

IF SOMEONE TOLD LINDSEY VONN IT COST $500 an OUNCE, SHE'D PROBABLY POSE EATING A PLATE OF DOG SHIT.

She'd be proud of it.

Especially if somebody else was paying for it, like a rich, stupid-ugly guy like Tiger Woods.

Take a look at the pictures above.

What could possibly be the attraction here besides MONEY?

Oh, I know what a few of you are thinking...there's Klum and Seal...opposites who attracted. They attracted because they recognized each other as mediocre talents praised totally out of proportion to their skills. She could stand around in underwear, he could sing hoarsely like Peter Gabriel with a head cold) you could argue that they were attracted because both were celebrities. Or something.

PS, they ended up divorced, after years of bullshit and hearts-and-flowers write-ups in the tabloids about how PERFECT they were, and their brats. Except somebody cheated. Awww. At least it didn't involve three-ways, spanking or shit-eating threats. We'll get to THAT stuff with Tiger Woods shortly.

So Vonn and Woods have something in common...both being athletes. But, one of them is an attractive athlete, and the other looks like a freakish ventriloquist dummy in bad leisure clothes. One of them had to exert a lot of energy to win any kind of prize. The other just wanders around a golf course puttering.

Let's cut to the FINAL SOLUTION for Uber-Lunatic Vonn, Hitler's idea of the Master Race Perfect Woman. She will eventually run, on a broken leg, away from Tiger Woods.

Here's some of what Tiger Woods has done to his other carefully chosen conquests (ie, none of them resemble Rihanna, much less Halle Berry or Lena Horne, if you understand his SHADY interests in what he likes to use and abuse).

LOREDANA JOLIE (referred to as Tiger's 10th mistress in cheating on his wife):

"He was into role-playing...we would go and get tons of girls and he would dress up in a suit." Tiger would sit and observe the action, masturbating: "We were like little puppets and he liked the whole show." The sordid scenes were usually all-girl (""He would invite other girls from other countries to join us...just white...he liked blondes.")

Loredana claimed she'd also denied Tiger anal ("He tried to.") --adding that he'd also tried to get her to ‘toss his salad’: "I didn't say anything. I just didn't do it."

"Toss his salad," in some slang circles, means eat his shit. Literally. Yeah, nice guy, this Tiger Woods. Maybe Lindsey Vonn is eating it, as long as she had Red Bull for a chaser.

JAIMEE GRUBBS...another Tiger mistress...noted that he was "never mentioning [protection] or asking if I was on birth control." Tiger preferred the pull-out method: "Usually on my chest."

And did Tiger Woods want to fuck her in the ass? Of course: ""He tried, yeah. I didn't let him. He just kinda tried and I said, 'Uh-uh.'"

Do we need more?

Well, ONE more. Let's hear from JOSLYN JAMES, who got such romantic texts from Tiger Woods:

Tiger:Sent: 03:35 PM 08/29/2009: In a week. I will try to wear you out

Tiger:Sent: 03:36 PM 08/29/2009: After i cum you better start sucking my cock to get it hard

Tiger:Sent: 03:37 PM 08/29/2009: Do you ever hook up with other guys or girls

Tiger:Sent: 03:41 PM 08/29/2009: You didnt answer the question

Tiger:Sent: 03:43 PM 08/29/2009: Ok. I would like to have a threesome with you and another girl you trust

Tiger:Sent: 03:48 PM 08/29/2009: Does that excite you at all or no

Tiger:Sent: 04"02 PM 08/29/2009: I want to treat you rough. Throw you around, spank and slap you

Tiger:Sent: 04:06 PM 08/29/2009: Slap your face. Treat you like a dirty little whore. Put my cock in your ass and then shove it down your throat

Tiger:Sent: 04:07 PM 08/29/2009: You are my fucking whore

Tiger:Sent: 04:08 PM 08/29/2009: Hold you down while i choke you and Fuck that ass that i own

Tiger:Sent: 04:10 PM 08/29/2009: Then im going to tell you to shut the Fuck up while i slap your face and pull your hair for making noise

That's Tiger Woods, one of the richest men in the sports world, who could be respected, who has, according to the women, a larger than average eight inch hunk of wood to work with, and who you'd think is athletic enough to last and please a woman without being a sicko. (One woman said he tended to come a little too fast).

Too bad. But like O.J. Simpson, another blonde-obsessed lunatic, there's quite an evil side to guys who want so desperately to present a "good guy" image to the public...but who somehow end up living lie, resent the white part of themselves or something, who have basic insecurities, and who are basically stupid-ass idiot savant assholes who have a skill that they were more born with than worked at. So they are guilty, nasty, fucked up...and fuck up women. BADLY fuck up women.

Will this duo break up before they have a child? An uber-monster that can both ski and play golf? Some Adolf Vonn Hitler-Woods with blond hair and a fashionable tan? Why, the thought is almost as stimulating as a can of Red Bull. Almost as nauseating, too.

LINDSEY VONN SKI-NAZI MUST HAVE $$$$ Via RED BULL

Lindsey Vonn is a disgrace. Garbage. Idiot bimbo deluxe.

She's worse than Kardashian. Why? Because Kardashian doesn't shill for creepy German swine and dangerous "drinks" that kids should NOT have in their diet.

RED BULL? This liquid shit was invented in Mengele-land, Hitler-ville...the land of a million Jew deaths. In 1987 Austria's uber-Nazi monsters, the same ones who tried to build a master race decades earlier, made it. It tastes "sickly sweet" according to Snopes.com, which is enough to hook the kiddies, right?

NOT enough that they don't need a shill like Lindsey Vonn, who obviously wants to star in "Ski Nazis Must Shill." What a money mad whore. Well, she's hedging against the day Tiger Woods beats the crap out of her or goes too far with his S&M and ass-fucking and spanking games.

RED BULL, which sounds like a psycho-dangerous animal on the loose, is...supposed to make you feel like a psycho-dangerous animal on the loose

Yeah, that's what "sports" is about in our world. I remember playing sports, and we drank WATER. We had FUN. Even in uniforms, and with a trophy on the line, we weren't going to CHEAT and fill our bodies with dangerous chemicals. For one thing, society wasn't so sick back then. At best, we could've had a "Sun Dew" (a sugary pseudo-orange juice) or "Mountain Dew" or a Coke. Only we didn't, because our coaches knew better. Better a kid drink some water and be honest, and play fair.

RED BULL?

This shit has glucuronolactone, taurine, and a huge amount of caffeine

This shit is NOT for kids, teenagers or real athletes. Obviously. Except brain-damaged shills like Vonn want to hypnotize everyone into getting that "competitive edge" with shit that is just damn dangerous to your health.

Oh yes. Don't forget about the FIVE TEASPOONS of sugar in each can.

Lindsey Vonn, you really think loading a kid up on sugar and caffeine is "competitive?" What happened to a kid just going out there and having fun? Being competitive without needing an EDGE? You dumb bitch.

Here's a just-published story about the Austrian creep involved in "doping" who is also involved with RED BULL.

As if we don't have enough with Lance Armstrong and giant meat-headed crooks like Barry Bonds breaking home run records by using drugs. We have pretty Lindsey trying to hook teenage girls on unhealthy drinks so they can cheat and win some stupid high school sporting event? What a BRAINLESS BRAINLESS DISGUSTING STUPID OBNOXIOUS IRRESPONSIBLE CUNT THIS LINDSEY VONN IS.

Tiger Woods is already one of the most hated sports figures of all time.

It has to do with his whining, his playing the race card, his habit of pretending to be a mild and nice fellow when he's a creep and a sex pervert, etc. etc.

Back to RED BULL.

Gatorade...this rather repulsive junk is ok according to many, because it basically does nothing more than replace lost salts and "electrolytes" for sweaty athletes. That's about as far as it should go. You'll notice that in SOME sports at least, like boxing, a fighter is only allowed WATER between rounds, not Gatorade, and certainly not Lindsey Vonn's douche of choice, RED BULL.

The all-mighty DOLLAR, which motivates a money-slut like Vonn, means that this dangerous and disgusting DRUG-DRINK has been legalized in countries where it had been banned, and is as easy to find as, oh, "bath salts" and ecstasy, and date rape drugs and other shit.

You can find plenty of doctors and health organizations that will tell you this stuff is DEADLY. But who listens? Not when there's sleek, blonde, pretty, LINDSEY VONN mincing around with RED BULL on her hat, and Woods sperm in her snatch, and some kind of smelly gelatin in her brain.

Dr. D. Gebara, of UCLA, says the following (at least, according to various Internet pages...but you can find plenty more):

AVOID RED BULL BECAUSE...

1. It is dangerous to take it if you do not engage in physical exercise afterwards, since its energizing function accelerates the heart rate and can cause a sudden attack.

2. You run the risk of undergoing a cerebral hemorrhage, because RED BULL contains components that dilute the blood so that the heart utilizes less energy to pump the blood, and thus be able to deliver physical force with less effort being exerted.

3. It is prohibited to mix RED BULL with alcohol, because the mixture turns the drink into a “Deadly Bomb” that attacks the liver directly, causing the affected area never to regenerate anymore.

4. One of the main components of RED BULL is the B12 vitamin, used in medicine to recover patients who are in a coma; from here the hypertension and the state of excitement which is experienced after taking it, as if you were in a drunken state.

5. The regular consumption of RED BULL triggers off symptoms in the form of a series of irreversible nervous and neuronal diseases.

CONCLUSION: It is a drink that should be prohibited in the countries of the Caribbean and Latin America and the entire world) as it is already waking up other nations because when it is mixed with alcohol it creates a time bomb for the human body, mainly between innocent adolescents and adults with little experience.

Alan Calls It A Day -- Vital Question Taken to his Grave

When an obit mentions someone you never heard of, but screams "FAMOUS," you must read on.

And so just as I did, you're first question is...

Who the FUCK is Alan O'Day?

When I saw "SINGER SONGWRITER ALAN O'DAY DEAD..." that was MY question, and I'm a bargain bin denizen from way back. How come that name only VAGUELY rang Quasimodo's bell of grotesqueness?

Turns out, Alan was one of those MOR saps from the mid-70's.

It was a shitty era (of which there have been many) in which various mediocre people who couldn't sing too well, somehow managed to have some kind of cloying annoying semi-hit "single." Name your asshole.

Remember Dean Friedman and his chipmunk-shit "Ariel?" Or that fucking Christopher Cross? Or Buzzy Linhart and "You Gotta Have Friends?"

If I had a barf bag handy, I'd make a more substantial list.

The bargain bins are bulging with SONGWRITER guys with indifferent voices who got to make one or two albums. Logic? "Uh, if he wrote some songs for others, maybe his fans will buy him singing his shit, even if he has no charisma."

That would explain those Barry Mann solo albums on Columbia and RCA Victor, or Philip Goodhand-Tait's stuff on Chrysalis, or the 1977 album from Alan O'Day with "Undercover Angel" on it. That song actually went to #1 without my ever hearing it. Lucky me.

But I had to listen when he died, because he died. And halfway through, my interest died.

Then I discovered that Alan was also notable for having written a (s)hit for Helen Reddy. That would be the God-awful "Angel Baby," which I also managed to avoid for over 30 years. I listened to a bit of that one. Let's just say "Angel Baby" as a worthy song was stillborn.

OK.

I am NOT kicking dirt on the man's grave. Not really. Too bad he died. That I didn't care for his shitty brand of music isn't really the point of this entry.

It's that once intrigued by finding out why there was even an obit for Alan O'Day when he called it a day, I looked at his website.

And now, he's taken...

a question I would have asked...

TO HIS GRAVE.

Take a look at him in the corner photo, age 70 or whatever. Now take a look at the digitized or re-issued 70's solo album he was hawking.

WHY does a guy who was comfortable with a bald-headed picture of himself on an album cover...NOW wear the most ridiculous and obvious wig of all time?

It's a question he's taken to his grave.

Although maybe the funeral home could tell us if he was actually buried in that thing!

Dick Clark Dead Looks Better Than Dave Clark Live

The tabloids in England love to photograph DAVE CLARK...pointing out that he looks like some freakish character in a sci-fi movie.

It may come as news to most anyone else in the world that anyone from the DAVE CLARK FIVE is still ALIVE, as the band's career ironically matched their few hits: "Bits and Pieces" were all they were worth in 1964, "Catch Us If You Can" (because The Beatles are getting all the airplay) in 1965 and then "Over and Over" (it's OVER, guys) in 1965.

Just what Dave Clark's been doing in nearly the past 50 years has been of no interest to anyone except Dave Clark, and maybe a few wrinkly ladies who remember getting moist long, long ago watching the band. And maybe it was some other band member that they liked, not him.

It's amusing, if disgusting, how we age. Some of us look ok. Most of us are at least recognizable. Some celebrities do have the benefit of being able to go to the best specialists to minimize wrinkles and fat deposits and spotty bits.

Then there are the frightening few who ended up with Dr. Frankenstein and turned into monsters. Well, Dave, it could be worse. At least you are still a man. Two words: BRUCE JENNER.

Yahoo Whore-Bitch CEO Marissa Mayer Vows Not to Blow David Karp's Dick

ABC News reported that she isn't too worried about TUMBLR's reputation for being a shitty little porn site where geekish creeps like David Karp upload stolen photos from men's magazines.

Over here at DISGUST CENTRAL, I can report that she isn't really looking at TUMBLR's David Karp with lust when she does interviews promoting the incredibly moronic BILLION BUCKS she's spending on him.

In a fake interview with me, she said as much:

Me: "So tell me, rich bitch, why is it I no longer have a Geocities website for free because Yahoo pulled the plug claiming they had no money?"

She: "Uh, that was a different CEO, and an older one. Like, really. Get over it. Go get a TUMBLR account!"

Me: "Tell me, Brainless Cunt, couldn't you simply MAKE a TUMBLR site of your own? Why do you whore-maggots always wait around for something to get a buzz, and simply throw money at it and take it over like Nazi Commie swine? No creativity of your own?

She: "Can you just text your questions to me so I can delete them? You're making my brain bleed, and I don't have a Kotex with me."

Me: "In photos with Karp, some think you look like you're thinking about blowing him. That giving him 200 MILLION wouldn't be enough. Are you going to blow David Karp?"

She: "It's all about MONEY. That's all that motivates me and a sexless cretin like David Karp. He doesn't even know how to wank, because it's not a "joystick" and he's only a gamer. Although he does like TUMBLR being a place where he and other geeks can run AWESOME pictures of naked women. Mostly to wonder "where's the dick?"

Me: "Doesn't it embarrass you doing business with an ugly, socially-awkward dipshit geek like David Karp who runs a site that caters almost exclusively to porn assholes, chatty-idiot chicks, and repulsive fanboy morons that clog up bandwidth with shit nobody cares about?

She: "Srsly. R U 4 real?"

Me: "What's your problem, Snot Twat? I'm using sentences? I write FOR instead of 4? You can't follow?"

She: "Ewww! Ewww! Could you at LEAST put some cute smiley-icon at the end of your sentences? Pretty please?

Me: "Tell me, Prostitute Deluxe, what about how you will whore-up an "ad-free site" to try and make back that billion?

She: "Uh? Look, in a few years I'll run for Governor of California or something, like Meg Whitman. Grrrrrl powrrrr! Go away! DELETE!

Me: "Sorry, Self-Absorbed Muffler, you can't just DELETE me. Or take away my TUMBLR account. I don't have one. See, you Nazi-Commie Power-Mad Shits are all alike. You talk about freedom of speech when it involves not having to pay for copyrighted material, but if you don't like a blog, a forum, a point of view, POOF, it disappears into cyber-powder. When it suits you, you damn well DELETE an account. If something is inexcusable porn and shouldn't be seen by anyone under 18, you still don't remove it. You let people click it saying "hey I'm really over 18" and that's enough. In the real world, a porn store couldn't let a kid in just because he says he's 18. BUT...if you don't like something a person wrote, or a photo uploaded, you can remove the entire blog or close the account and simply point to YOUR "terms of service" which is that YOU reserve the right to do as you please at your "discretion," case closed. There ain't no freedom of speech if YOU don't want it! You just say "It's my site and my rules. And you can't sue me because the government is scared shitless and won't dare interfere with new and better laws. Because WE control so much of what you read now, not independent newspapers or TV news broadcasts!"

She: "Whatever, dude. Watch it. Somebody at Google might be sympathetic to ME, and not like you calling me names, and can your blog!"

Me: "Google? They're just laughing their asses off at how you're making an already-pathetic company worse. And until they get their monkey-see monkey-do streaming audio going, to cripple Pandora and Spotify (rather than BUY those companies for a billion) I could even post an entire discography of almost anybody I like and they wouldn't care! For how many years have they looked the other way on Blogspot to idiots giving away the entire Schwann catalog practically...letting them get fresh blogs any time they wanted, forcing copyright owners to endure the "chilling effects" of being hacked and harassed because Google posted the DMCA's? Only when Google wants to make money off streaming audio, or off YouTube videos that can make them money, do they suddenly have an interest in encouraging DMCA requests and in permanently kicking off anonymous thieves. But if they are making more money off the abuse, they'll ignore DMCA's as much as they can. And fines mean nothing to companies that can throw away BILLIONS, ya know."

She: "Thank GAWD. Srsly."

Me: "This is the kind of asshole geek you have at TUMBLR."

She: "OMIGOD!"

Me: "This is the TUMBLR blogger at his finest. I could've chosen some schmucks showing off their "Star Trek" memorabilia, or posing with their collection of Barbie dolls, or any number of the millions of useless, inbred, hopeless, illiterate fools out there. But this will do. HERE is an asshole who has nothing better to do than post old show business ads, old record album covers and old clippings nobody cares about...and he does it relentlessly hour after hour, with links to his Twitter page where he offers bird-brained incoherent remarks...with links to a Blogger page for more stupidity. All to get one or two hits from another clueless basement dweller who can press a button and LIKE something.

What the fuck happened to WRITING? To THOUGHT? To collecting things that are worthwhile? To knowing the difference between being alive and wasting one's time?

She: "I'm worth thousands of dollars a minute."

Me: "Like a Las Vegas whore. Only you keep your cunt a lot more pristine, I suppose. Would you show me it for a billion dollars?"

She: "I guess so."

Me: "How about for five bucks?"

She: "WHAT? What do you take me for?"

Me:"We know what you are. We're just arguing about price."

She: "That's it, I'm outta here. I'm not even going to throw you a PEACE OUT."

Me: "Congrats on making a lot of Internet noise. Congrats for adding to the cyber-pollution out there, and to TUMBLR-ass FACEBOOK-ass TWITTER-ass places where there's no thought, just self-propelled turdy postings of witless tweeting and stolen photos and everyone thinking that being a geek is something hip. Fuckin' Internet. Melissa, you are even more of a repulsive twat than Kardashian. She's only bringing one ugly fucking Kanye baby-dollop into the world...YOU are adding to the overpopulation of more and more shitty blogs of soul-killing copyright-thieving SHIT. Go fuck yourself. Srsly.

THE DOORS - Jim Morrison, POET DELUXE

While we all mourn poor Ray, and we ALL go rushing out to buy hippie John's book about how rotten Ray was and how bad commercialism was, let's NOT overlook the main reason anyone cares about THE DOORS.

It was POET JIM.

The man was so profound. Wasn't he?

He was a romantic poet who believed in love at first sight:

Hello, I love you

Won't you tell me your name?

Hello, I love you

Let me jump in your game

Unlike some mere hillbilly like Roy "Pretty Woman" Orbison, POET JIM was, oh, wow man, like BLAKE or BAUDELAIRE or RIMBAUD or something. He elevated girl-watching to the point where it was a psychedelic art form. Right?

She holds her head so high

Like a statue in the sky

Her arms are wicked, and her legs are long

When she moves my brain screams out this song

This is why the guy moved to Paris. Sensitive poets like this can't survive merely waving their dicks in front of an audience in Florida. Or getting into arguments over "commercialism."

If you see a woman on the street, don't be crude like a construction worker, don't shout out "HELLO, I LOVE YOU, WON'T YOU TELL ME YOUR NAME?"

Be a sensitive POET. And say, "HELLO, I LOVE YOU, WON'T YOU TELL ME YOUR NAME?"

THE DOORS ARE CLOSED - Except for Hapless Brain-Fried Psych-Nostalgists

"Some get the awful-awful diseases," sang Warren Zevon, who was soon rewarded with a hideous form of cancer. Living a lot longer was Ray Manzarek, best known as the guy who diddled the spindly opening keyboard solo on "Light My Fire," before the so-called "Lizard King" did his Geico-like commercial for, what, safety matches or something.

As you can tell, I'm not a huge fan of The Doors. They had maybe three hits, and I haven't listened to any of them in years. Not intentionally. Mr. King (oh, why be so formal, I'll call him "Liz") was a personality. He always will be. For one song, he's like Elvis. You can't look away. After that, and if the song isn't any good, you just think, "Who's this guy fooling?" This is why stars like that die young from drugs or alcohol...they're living a bullshit lie. There's nobody home inside the funny outfit they wear on stage. They're playing a game that only leads to boredom and contempt for those who play along with them.

Well, Liz died a long time ago. Various puppy-dog wanna-be-hippies can't get over this because they weren't there. Aw, all they can do is go to a forum and act like bobble-head dolls, telling everyone how super-groovy-cool The Doors albums and the rest of the stuff in granny's attic is...from the computer in mommy's basement. All they can do is use the lingo (although "peace out" betrays their true age and mentality) and throw FREE DOWNLOAD files around, preventing some 60's artists who didn't have Doors-level hits from getting the extra royalties they could use.

Aside from dweebish 20-somethings who missed it and see glamour in hippie rebellion (as long as the protest can be done alone on a computer without risk), Liz still resonates among the hippie-go-yuppie merry-go-round of pretentious twats who stopped taking drugs not long after the unholy three dropped dead (Jimi, Janis as well as Liz) but secretly remember "those days" with (ugh) NOSTALGIA. So their idea of a turn-on is buying some ultra-expensive box set on The Doors from some company confident the old rich yuppies can help them make enough money to offset what they lose on the little red hippies with their blogs and forum posts and their clueless notions of anarchy (which only involve stealing music, not, let's say, stealing a bag of groceries from Tesco to give to homeless or poor people in their neighborhood).

The Doors was basically Liz, but there was also Ray, who at least played an instrument. The others? Who the fuck really cares. Listen to "Light My Fart," or whatever it's called, and you've got the facts right there. There's a guy singing. There's a guy playing keyboard. The rest of what goes on in that song (or any other Doors song) is not too profound. Oh, maybe a lead guitar bit here and there is ok, but not that special. That the Doors never went anywhere once Liz died is also a fact that is beyond dispute. But that's just the way it is.

It would be poor taste (and as Spike Milligan would say, there's a LOT of it about) to go on about how mildly disgusted I, or others, might be over the continued hype and legend of The Doors. The fact here is that a lot of people are gutted (exactly like semi-polluted river fish, which leads to nausea rather than frying them up to eat) over Ray's passing. They can be gutted. Just don't eat it. Ray was 74, which is old by today's standard, considering all the new and lethal viruses around, all the new ways to get killed by religious fanatics and gun-nuts, and how everything gives you cancer and now it can't simply be avoided by not billowing cigarette smoke into your lungs.

Ray died, let's remember, of fuckin' BILE DUCT CANCER. You don't want to know the details. My sympathies are with his family and my hopes are that he did have enough royalty money to pay for all the medication and treatment he needed. Meaning, let's hope that unlike the average rocker from that era, like Kenny Edwards...all the money wasn't spent very quickly on hospital care.

Some Doors fans instantly have the knee-jerk response, "Oh, it's not so terrible, I'M alive, I can listen to DOORS music, and JOHN is still alive..."

Right. John. The drummer. Didn't we all listen to The Doors for the GREAT DRUMMING? What's his last name...Dinsdale? Dinsdale hasn't been a factor, musically, since Liz pickled himself in Paris, but he haunted the world for decades with the notion that if HIS royal terms are met, The Doors might still get back together. To do what? Nobody gave a damn when the 3 remaining planks put out a few "Doors" album, which quickly went into the bargain bin. And they moved on (with Ray actually forming other bands, and taking more musical risks, and having the better resume of the three). Meanwhile, as the years went on, a small bunch of whining backward-looking drugged up idiots and newbie 20-something losers kept crying about having a re-union even without the prime player, Mr. Liz, the girly-lipped wonder. A person that frankly makes me nauseous to look at in all his simpering publicity photos. Most normal people got used to the fact that in a weird mood, they might still get a weird vibe off a weirdo singing about how STRANGE people are. Good enough.

Does any sane person really want to imagine Liz still on stage, baby faced, plump-lipped, dark-haired even though middle-aged, and singing "Light My Fire?" I hardly want to see old footage of him! Not being a girl, not being a homo, and not being on LSD, I never found it too appealing to see that solemn, tongue-dribbling soft spoken seducer drool out his icky lyrics that suggested cunnilingus first, and a bang up the asshole with date-rape ferocity a few moments later. Think about it. First he's all sweaty with his pick-up lines and his Poetry 101 babble about funeral pyres, then he turns into Screaming Lord Fudge, a total asshole, wanting to set the night, (and the girl's anus) on FIRE.

Let poor Liz (along with the great Jimi and Janis) exist in that sad soap bubble of tear-producing myopic nostalgia. Oooh, "Light My Fire." Oooh, fuck-a-fying the National Anthem on guitar, ooh, screeching about Bobby McGee. What a waste. What a waste. Rock and roll don't...

Don't forget. Don't just listen to the music. Read the books.

Dinsdale's still haunting the world with his hippie-dippie notions about music being "free" while he flogs his book.

And that, patient reader, is the real reason for THIS piece.

I was going to post it after I saw that idiot on Tavis Smiley's show, but poor Ray's death sealed the deal. I say Poor Ray, because all I know really, is he died of a horrible disease, and he didn't suddenly turn up on talk shows with a book and a lot of boring shit about how noble he is.

While Ray was "battling" his disease (this isn't a fair fight, folks), Dinsdale was hawking his book and congratulating himself for being on the oh-so-righteously left side of the great "music shouldn't be commercial, we are ARTISTES" notion.

To give you an idea of how seriously the tacky little fanatic fan-tacks are (fan-tacks being the ones who keep nailing The Doors up to the pedestal, which impedes the rest of us from moving along with our lives), here's some utter twaddle and drool from an Amazon page comment on Dinsdale's book. As you'd expect, he got raves from so many die-hard (please, just DIE) Doors fans:

"Two weeks ago,I went to a John Densmore book- signing...I had purchased my wrist band that would allow me entrance several weeks earlier and kept my pre-order receipt for the book.I arrived two hours before the scheduled....

Already, you know this is an acid-casualty dimwit with plenty of time and no brains.

"...I joined the line that had already started at 4:30 with my copy of the book in my hand and ended up being the twenty-first person to enter through the back door of the store to get the book signed...I was directed to a table where a store employee numbered my book and then motioned forward to the table John was sitting at...."

You do get the idea that this was the highlight of this jerk's life. I've already edited out a LOT of detail.

"....I handed him the book and thanked him for writing it and keeping the music as most important (I'd read half the book while waiting on the line). Then I told him I hoped my integrity would last as long as his. He then said to me,"It's people like you who who keep me strong." As tears welled-up in my eyes...We smiled at each other and I then turned to my left and walked over to another store employee who cut my wristband off to ensure I wouldn't return to the line to see John again,understandable as the line was very long...."

Jesus Christ. Dinsdale is NOT Jesus. It just seems that way in this sniveling, pious account of how Mecca is actually a bookstore in New Jersey where an old hippie is hawking a book. Let's cut to how Dinsdale the Drummer turns out to be some kind of beacon of light in this oh-so-commercial world:

".....Regarding this book, it is so honest,so genuine,so inspiring as to be ,at times,overwhelming in representing how deeply the ideals of the 60s touched one person so deeply as to have him endure so much emotional and physical sacrifice so it would continue to live,and corporate greed would not,the antithesis of those ideals.That his fellow bandmate,Ray Manzarek,didn't get,or care,what his lead singer was about is tragic...justice can triumph if one is willing to stand up and fight for it,which John did,the Morrison estate by his side(when they had the choice not to be) all the way.I wondered ,as I read of the false accusations and character assassinations leveled continuously at him,how John could have continued to wake each morning,drive to the courthouse and deal with what was said about and to him.The testimony when Manzarek is on the stand is not-to-be-believed and must have been completely gut wrenching for John...To have a book like this in this day and age of Wall Street thievery and Republican self-service and cruelty...and greed...is a beacon of hope and honesty in a world that continues to grow short concerning such.The first chapter alone will blow your mind,and give you all you will ever need as to knowing who Jim Morrison really was.How blessed we were for his being in our lives.And for John Densmore."

And there you are. Hype and smoke and mirrors. I admit, I am so NOT a fan of these guys, I have no idea how much of a dick Ray Manzarek may have been. I just have a feeling Dinsdale is more of the cunt. I don't even recall which stupid song the fight was about, but The Doors were just a fairly shitty psych band that had a few hit songs. Definite classics. You just have trouble naming more than two or three, which is pretty much the same problem with most rock bands anyway. Go name three great Animals hits. Anyway, The Doors had simple-minded and boorish notions about how to pick up chicks ("hello, how are you..."). They appealed to gullible guys who dreamed about being on a "crystal ship" taking lots of drugs and looking pensively toward Nirvana or Atlantis. Or the bra-less hippie chick who cast her droopy eyes in disdain after hearing, "I got ALL The Doors albums and some bootlegs. Wanna light up a doobie with me and listen?" And The Doors also appealed to both the psych-druggies and the good old fashioned whiskey bar drunks. Pick your poison and light your fire!

Having principles is a good thing. NO, I have not forgotten that Liz refused to alter his lyrics to get on Ed Sullivan's show. Mick Jagger did. But come on. Not everything has to be a fucking fight.

Who was more pig-headed, John or Ray? Or is that even the point now. Poor Doors fans with no lives and nothing else to think about in the past 20 years, kept mourning about not having the chance to throw more bad "it's not the same without Liz" albums into the bargain bin, as they did with the first few non-Liz albums that had Ray and Robby doing the singing. As they did with the fake Badfinger records propelled into the stores by a SURVIVING DRUMMER.

I happened to see Dinsdale on an embarrassing Tavis Smiley show, which you can probably watch on Hulu or on Smiley's website. Although at the end of the half-hour he was bashing an Indian (oh, excuse me, NATIVE AMERICAN) wicker basket of some kind, and chanting some hippie-dippie mantra, most of the time, Dinsdale wasn't giving away free music. Dinsdale was mewling about how bad it is for artists to be COMMERCIAL, and how art somehow is so DIFFERENT and so much more noble, and so therefore should not involve money. Or a lot of it. Or taking money from people you don't respect.

Like, tell me, Dinsdale, you really respected the suits at Elektra, or your managers, or the average business-man-cum-weasel who owned the venue that you guys played? Were these guys not the same kind of capitalists as the ones asking to use a Doors song for an ad? You Fuckhead. You were always part of the system, man, you just chose to make Madison Avenue the gate of hell...not the record company office you strolled into to collect your giant paycheck. Not the publicist's office you visited to check your paid-for press clippings. Not the radio station greased with payola and promises to produce you for an interview in return for booking others on the same label. Fuckhead.

Dinsdale's so proud of how The Doors broke apart with “commercialism” one of the main sticking points? HE didn’t want one of their stupid songs used in a commercial. Two others did...and drummer boy wasn’t budging when the bid went from five million to ten million. And I think to 15 million. He explained to Tavis Smiley that the Doors were somehow some kind of Utopian uber-group that had sussed out equality, which meant that if ONE of the four didn't go along, fuck it. He said that he told Ray and the other hold-out, “You’re all comfortable. What do you need the extra money for?”

And host Tavis Smiley sagely nodded his head, like this was pure gospel. Pure gold. Pure logic. Not pure horse shit.

Hey, schmuck, you don't need an extra five million dollars? Not even to GIVE AWAY? Hey Mr. Utopia, why not take that corporate five million and hand it to 5,000 struggling musicians, or starving kids, or to fans in a refund for high ticket prices? You can't change the world? The government? "The Man?" Then you can stick it to him in some other way, like taking as big a chunk of his money as you can, and doing some GOOD with it!

Tavis Smiley, either being a good host, or forgetting he's an interviewer, didn't stand up for Ray Manzarek (who was busy, you see, fighting CANCER) or others who believe Capitalism is a pretty good system (any of you want to move to China or Russia?) Instead, he muttered that “Stevie Wonder’s legacy has been tainted by too many of his songs being used in commercials. I know I’d get an argument if I called him on that!” Well, Tavis, you wouldn't get any argument if you wrote it down and put it in front of him, no.

Fine, Tavis. You know Stevie Wonder. Now, that “legacy” again. What IS that legacy? How would a piece of shit like “My Cherie Amour” be tainted if it was used in the background for 1-800-Flowers, or even for Cherry Cola?

Instead of being reasonable to any degree (like, maybe a lesser Doors song might be ok for a product the band members use and like) Dinsdale ends up with a "philosophy" as unyielding, stubborn and stupid as any Jihad-monkey's cries to Allah that involve blowing the legs off women and children. If you remember the hippies in their 60's prime...weren't a lot of them crashing together in one home they turned into a hovel just as stupid, stubborn, stuck-in-their-mantra PESTS as Christian fundamentalists living in the well-maintained house next door? Christ, even John Lennon ended up saying, "Flower Power didn't work. We'll try something else." Like, try listening and compromising. Do I have to keep on talking till I can't go on?? Not EVERY rock song is up there with "Ave Maria." We all have heard rock songs used in ads, and some of these ads were pretty good. If you pick the right song and right product, so the fuck what.

Worse, Dinsdale defended not only any notion of trying to work together as people (instead of being stubborn), ignored the fact that his hippie-dippie philosophies didn't get the band back together (not that anyone would've wanted to hear them without Liz), and instead trumpeted more wet air about how musicians have this GIFT and it should be SHARED, and it can get TAINTED by money.

What’s wrong with getting paid for your creativity? Joni Mitchell didn’t stand on a street corner “playin’ real good for free.” She wasn't willing to have a day job and go play for dollar bills in a park. She wanted to reach MILLIONS OF PEOPLE. You do that by involving business men and corporations and managers.

Dinsdale's entire career is the result of commercialism. The money in his bank account got there because of Capitalism, not some little red hippie bullshit of giving it all away. That he helped wreck Doors re-unions for a bunch of needy hapless brain-fried psych-nostalgists is too bad. I haven't read the book, don't really care what Manzarek testified about...the point is, there are always shades of gray. Nothing is pure fucking black and white, not even a black and white movie, dig?

Dinsdale isn't giving his book away for free, is he? His publisher is making a profit, right? Even if Dinsdale is donating HIS royalties to charity, he's still being commmercial. He could've put his book up FREE as a blog. He could've made a website and posted photos and free tracks of him playing a tom-tom, and simply put a PAYPAL DONATION banner in the corner saying "Tip Jar." How come he didn't do that? Why didn't he GIVE AWAY HIS FUCKING BOOK? You "SHARE" don't you? You told Ray years ago he was "Comfortable" and had "enough money" to avoid commercialism. Dinsdale, why didn't you put your book out via PDF for all your sniveling fans, and if you felt like giving money to a charity, just do it from your DEEP DEEP pocket?

Tell me, Dinsdale, would you be shaking hands and wasting time with some retarded fan in New Jersey at a book signing, if he did NOT pay to buy your book? Wasn't PAYING a sign of respect? A show of worth? Putting his money where his mouthy mewlings were?

DINSDALE? DINSDALE! DINSDALE....

YAHOO Will Hopefully Go BANKRUPT gambling with TUMBLR Dice

You remember YAHOO.

They used to run moronic redneck commercials where somebody would holler "YAH....HOOOOO!"

The idea, I guess was to equate their Internet company with "Mountain Dew," another hyped-up and essentially useless product. One dangerous to your health.

YAHOO was at one time such a success it tried to rival eBay with an auction-your-crap site. No more. YAHOO was at one time a place to get a free e-mail account that might not crash every other day or be inundated with spam. No more. YAHOO was the place where you could get your own free website, having taken over Geocities, one of the pioneers in letting the ordinary Internet geek become an obnoxious pest and pseudo-celebrity. No more.

YAHOO actually sent notices to all those loyal Geocities folk, telling them they had maybe six months to take down their stuff and find a new home. Why? Oh, it just wasn't economically "viable" to keep the freebie site going, even with banner ads.

And now? Some rat-bitch is the CEO of YAHOO and the magic show of bravado has been ratcheted up ever since. The game of impressing Silicon-heads, and duping venture-capital geeks, and having slimeballs invest other peoples' money in foolishness...reached a YAH-WHO-THE-HELL-ARE-YOU-FOOLING crescendo the other day.

Yahoo spent a BILLION dollars to buy something called TUMBLR, an illiterate college drop-out's toy that people are hailing as a cross between Facebook and Twitter. Really? Why wasn't it called ASS-TWIT? That's pretty much a cross between Facebook and Twitter, too.

Some 200 MILLION will go to the jerk who founded TUMBLR. Really. It's that easy to make back 200 MILLION off trendy websites that rely on the attention span of maggot-brained brats? Ever hear of MY SPACE?

Yahoo will make back another 800 MILLION off human insects who spend their lives burping the word APP over and over?

A BILLION DOLLARS to be made back when it'll be oh so easy for Google to start up a competing version, or for Facebook or Twitter to just putter a few APP-APP-APPs to take away any remaining novelty with TUMBLR?

And who the hell has all this time to waste on what we all know is a miserable alloy of danger and futility? TUMBLR could, at any time, be hacked by anyone from the Pez Dispenser robots of LulzSec to the devious monsters of Communist China, sending millions of foolish brats running around in circles crying 'My identity was just stolen.' Which is a sad miscalculation, because if you're an avid idiot on FACEBOOK or TWITTER or TUMBLR you HAVE no identity. You HAVE no personality. It's just your brains that were stolen. Or more accurately, rotted by all the time you wasted with your APP APP APP nonsense and your petty, trivial, idiot postings of what you ate at McDonalds and what stupid Bieber or GaGa song you illegally downloaded.

YAHOO rolled the tumblr dice...something even GOOGLE thought wasn't worth doing, and to them a billion dollars is pocket change.

YAHOO's stock didn't bounce higher or lower on the great news. That's a pretty good indication that even the weasels of Wall Street have a sense of ennui about these yawn-producing "bombastic" announcements.

YAHOO thinks they've shook up the world. They've just taken a TUMBL....

May this be the beginning of their end. And that the only time you'll EVER hear the stupid word "YAHOO" is when a redneck orders a Mountain Dew.

Whatever Happened to Class - Eva Longoria, Desperate Publicity Hog

Oh, ANOTHER "wardrobe malfunction?"

Yes, I know, even the most rabid of heterosexuals is saying, "THIS IS GETTING TIRESOME."

This is getting tiresome!

There, I've said it. Twice.

What's especially tiresome is that these "wardrobe malfunctions" tend to be so lame, too.

And the women who perform these cunning stunts...tend to be tawdry, trashy D-list tarts who all look like they're $200-a-night Craigs Listers. And that certainly includes Eva Longoria, who is looking more and more like she's going to Kim Kardashian's fake-up artist.

I remember seeing her on a Leno "Tonight Show" YEARS ago, and it was one of those rare times when I thought, "Hey, who is THIS? This is a hot-looking girl!" I mean, she didn't look like Paris Hilton, fer Chrissake.

My momentary intrigue faded when she began to speak. Her main topic of conversation was that she shaved her pubic hair and it was SO WONDERFUL and made the sex SO much better.

Whatever happened to class?

Then it turned out she was fucking basketball players, and she was starring on some garbage TV show not worth watching, and I don't think she ever was able to turn her somewhat interesting look into a career that included one decent film (not even a "Miss Congeniality" on her resume). And now? Now, Longoria is just another desperate bimbo who goes on talk shows and walks the red carpet as nothing but a sex object. A sex object of the "look at me," type, "I'm too sexy for my blouse...I can't stop my boobs from popping out...I'm too sexy for my skirt...whoops, you can see I've got a shaved crotch...I'm too stupid to wear even a thong..."

Raquel Welch, to name a past-Latina, has had a career that's lasted decades. One reason is she has class. She also understands that a turn-on has an element of mystery. You keep 'em wanting more. You don't show it all. Just as in real life, you don't marry the whore.

"Wardrobe malfunctions" do happen to the best of them...but the BEST of them stay classy. You can probably find the classic moment when the strap on Sophie Marceau's gown let her down. She revealed a golden globe, but she quickly made the adjustment, and being a mature and intelligent European beauty, her reaction was good humored surprise and she barely broke her stride as she covered up.

And it didn't happen again. "Again" IS the operative word for a Longoria, or Paris Hilton (who came to fame via a porn video) or Kardashian (who came to fame via a porn video). "Again and AGAIN" is what happens with Britney or Lindsay (who might blame their foolishness on drugs or alcohol).

Eva, heading toward 40, is Longoria in the tooth...which may be why she's so eager now to show her twat instead. Which is why even the most rabid of heterosexuals is saying...for the third time...

"THIS IS GETTING TIRESOME."

Whatever Happened to Class: LEBEDEV'S SHIT-EYE

You write a blog, you post to a forum...you're expected to be a coarse moron.

It's the easy way to get attention. Curse. Curse a LOT. Because there's no editor saying you can't. Because you're not being paid. And because you are too low class to know how to really write something provocative.

On a legit website, or writing for REAL magazines and newspapers...you are not wanted if all you can write is: "THIS SUCKS." (And if anyone leaves you a bad comment, it's "FUCK YOU!")

Which brings me to something called "SPORTSGRID," which I guess is somebody's vanity dotcom, or one of those "write for us, but we don't pay" conjobs. You get to pretend to be a columnist as you curse and curse, and offer a worthless opinion, and bask in the "glory" of being able to tell your gullible and easy-to-impress friends "I write for a website!" Whee!

We see this all the time: "Like to write? Got some free time? We don't pay, but hey, you might score a free music album, get a free ticket, or trick a D-lister into an interview. It could be the start of something..."

All you need is to get your SHIT together. Here's Jake O'Donnell's opening line on the Lebedev fight:

"Denis Lebedev's eye got the shit kicked out of it..."

Huh? "Shit kicked out" of an eye?

That's right, Jake, just be coarse, stupid, and curse. You think getting 37 "likes" on Facebook means something!

"Denis Lebedev's eye got the shit kicked out of it..."

Can you imagine seeing that on the sports page of your newspaper?

Would Dan Rafael write something so low class at ESPN.COM??

Can you imagine Jim Watt saying that?

OK, Jim Watt may have said it, but nobody understood it. But, I doubt it.

Frankly not even wild-eyed and goonish Max Kellerman would've said it.

This is because they have enough sense and enough skill to avoid four-letter words even if they're on cable TV.

The Photoshop job in the corner is my interpretation (and I did try to be tasteful) of what might prompt the asshole O'Donnell to think that an eye got "the shit kicked out of it." And I still don't see how it could be anatomically possible. Lebedev could not, unless he suffered a very peculiar blood infection, have any type of fecal material come out of his eye.

O'Donnell, however, does seem to have his brain awfully close to his ass.

(Blood) RED Buttons - - - Ebay's "Tribute Ghouls" salute Dr. Joyce Brothers

As soon as a celebrity dies...

Ebay's BUTTON GHOULS crawl out to sell their shitty "tribute" memorabilia.

The assholes steal (download) a photo, and...if they get an order, stick the photo in their button-press machine and laminate a souvenir. Actual cost of sticking the picture into the computer and printing it on a little square of photo paper, and laminating it? Almost nothing. So these penny-ante ghouls can make $3 or $5 if a sucker buys. If not? They just don't make a button. Big deal.

This asshole even protects his photo in the ad...not wanting others to steal the stolen photo! Too bad...both ghouls downloaded the same photo. Even the best laid plans of mice and rats...

Wearing an idiot button to mourn a celebrity....WHY? By the time you fucking get it in the mail, it's old news. Nobody's even grieving anymore.

I could've gone to Dr. Brothers' funeral. Would I have showed up with a fucking BUTTON on my lapel of her? To impress the mourners?? It ain't hard to find a novelty shop that would make a button. BUTT...only a butt-head would think this is any kind of mature or meaningful tribute!

I'll bet nobody buys one of these stupid Dr. Joyce Brothers buttons, but hey, the eBay ghouls don't really lose money for trying, as they get 50 free listings a month. How many famous people die in a month? Not more than that.

Ghouls...I was going to wish you luck and hope for a sudden violent death for Justin Bieber, but I don't hate him THAT much...in fact, maybe I hate YOU more.

"BEAUTY" is up the ass of the beholder

It's always amusing (in a disgusting sort of way) to see clueless EBAY morons trying to sell their utterly worthless "pop culture" eyesores for WAY OVER what they're worth

Case in point, a shit-for-brains who has posted over 100 outrageously over-priced baseball cards with "WHAT A BEAUTY" as the opening line for EVERY AD.

What do YOU think of this "beauty?"

Let's just say Del-Boy doesn't appeal to ME!

This idiot EBAY seller is charging 10 times over what any signed Del Rice card is worth. Actually, most don't even sell. Who the fuck IS Del Rice? A washed up ball player from the late 50's nobody remembers! Probably dead. And...no, not a 'beauty.' Not his face, not a square of cardboard. How "beautiful" is any baseball card?? Here's another dubious "BEAUTY" for you NOT to buy...

Oooh, the ravishing LEON WAGNER, early 60's. Anyone who remembers him is OLD, and half-blind, and STILL wouldn't call him or his card a "beauty." Christ, I'm surprised this foul cheeseball of a seller didn't add the witless L@@K symbol.

"What a Beauty..." an autographed (and there's no proof with cards like this, that they were signed by the player) Don Mueller. Mr.Idiot wants $24.95 even though another dealer couldn't even sell one for $3.50 last week!

Here's a dirty little secret about EBAY. They are so desperate these days, they give a seller FIFTY free listings a month. Yes. This EBAY moron can post 50 over-priced auctions without being charged an insertion fee (which could be fifty cents to a dollar depending on the greed of his opening bid price).

So Mr. Asshole figures soiling the site with over 100 ads...of which the most expensive 50 are free, is BEAUTIFUL!

PS, if you actually have an offbeat hobby like collecting autographed cards of obscure UGLY ball players, you'll find almost all of them (yes, including Don Mossi) selling from EBAY dealers with actual brains in their heads, for under $5 each.

THERE'S ALSO HIS FORKED TONGUE

You can be one of the richest bastards on Earth. Still, your warped brain might start poisoning your body.

Wouldn't it be funny if the creep who runs Facebook turns out to have one testicle...and shoots himself in a bunker?

My biggest hope is a variant on "bird flu," a pandemic in which every "HEDGE FUND" trader suddenly rushes, lemming-like, off a cliff into raging water. Lugging an employee from Google under each arm.

I'd also like to see every Kindle suddenly burst into flames, which would keep Amazon busy in court for a while.

And how about some of those pimply lads from Anonymous finding a way to make every new tweet on Twitter actually come out as nothing but: CHIRP CHIRP CLUCK CLUCK AWWWWWwK!!!

DIVINE IS ALIVE? It's 2013, AMATEUR PUNK BAND ZOMBIE DRAG NUTS STILL LIVE

Putting the GRIM in Grinsby, you might wander into some bar-hovel in that town and find yourself wincing at...PUTRESENCE...in the form of some rotten amateur group that tries to make up with make-up what they lack in talent.

The evidence is on YouTube!

Isn't it time to realize that "punk" as an art form died not long after the Sex Pistols came to America and flopped?

Isn't it time to realize that DIVINE is dead, and nobody should try to look like him?

Isn't it time to understand that make-up based on a mask worn by 70's wrestler Mil Mascaras is...LAME??

What's going on in every dirty little town with a beer-soaked stage, all over the world, is a true "time warp." It's idiots re-living the 70's and 80's forgetting it's 2013.

And Not HALLOWEEN 2013.

The gruesome and clueless idiots pictured above can't rap, can't be Mumford & Sons, can't play instruments well enough to imitate shitty progrock groups they may have grown up with...so they take the cheesy way out:

"Hmmm...I can't sing, I'm blobby and ugly, I don't know anyone who can play more than three chords...and I am too fucking stupid to even write down a few curse words that rhyme. I know, I'll bawl cover tunes that people might not even recognize the way we play and sing 'em, but fuck-all, that's what a PUNK band is about! All I need is to go to a tatty boot sale for an outfit and find a toilet that will accept this SHIT!"

And an audience?? "I'll invite my bastard spawn!""

UGH. You should see the nauseating and clueless kiddies that were watching this schlock horrible drag show!

Isn't it time for audience members to understand that Mohawk haircuts only made Brits arriving in America disgusted enough to shoot them on sight? Yes, it was the British who came over on the Mayflower, and soon after, they began to shoot Mohawks! Ergo the book: "Last of the Mohicans."

Oh yeah, "goons just want to have fun," but 40-something bar maids and rag-and-bone men really should just GET OFF THE STAGE.

Why, WHY do people who should not be seen or heard immortalize their incompetence by posting their grotesque performances on YouTube? To warn people never to go into a local pub on open-mike night???

CHRIS BROWN - THERE GOES THE NEIGHBORHOOD

Nice going, Chris. Keep perpetuating the "negroes don't know how to act" stereotype. Only, in the old days, it pertained to blacks who were loud, obnoxious and even smelly, because they weren't educated and didn't have money.

The Liberal idea was that if you integrated the neighborhoods, if you tossed welfare money around, if you gave the Negro a decent schooling, he'd assimilate and prove to be worthy of the legacy of a George Washington Carver or Frederick Douglass (names that Chris probably never heard of, or Minaj, Or Rihanna, or some of the other rich jackasses making a fortune with rap and R&B garbage these days).

Chris Brown's moved into a rich, high-tone Hollywood Hills neighborhood…and he's added "murals" to his walls, for all the lucky neighbors to see. Hmm. Remember when Archie Bunker complained that blacks moving into his Queens neighborhood would lower the real estate values?

At the moment, there's still a city ordinance that prohibits "murals" and other eyesores like this. Meaning, that any garish, tasteless, trashy, stupid, obnoxious moron, of any race or ethnicity, can NOT inflict his or her eyesores on anyone else. At least, not without paying a fine. So far Chris has been hit with about $400 in fines, and told to paint over his junk. He may have enough money to be obnoxious for a long time, and who knows, he might find some councilman who'll get an injunction against the city, and push through a law to protect Brown's "first amendment" right to be a shit head.

"Get a fuckin' life," says Chris Brown, who allegedly painted this amateurish graffiti himself. And it's all good, right, Chris? It is what it is, yo. Wussup, dawg? The art skills of a 10 year-old, the morality of a 2 year-old. Yeah, it's ALL good.

Ridicule Dotcoms

A lot of people try to be amusing…in voicing their disgust.

For example, there's SUBWAY COUTURE, a dotcom that focuses on snapshots of slobs and jerks and thoughtless low-class fools. Who, after all, would want to be sitting across the way and forced to look at or SMELL the food of this bitch? "Couture," a bit of a pompous name for a blog about the subways, originally seemed to be interested in promoting civilization in the jungle of mass transit, and remind everyone that we ALL should try to make the ride as painless and stinkless as possible. Please, don't clip your fingernails. Don't blare your shitty music. Don't be a loudmouth, etc. etc.

And so we have plenty of photos of people being assholes. But there are also photos that are from assholes who THINK they are so far above the assholes they're ridiculing. As in: if you dress to a different drummer, you're likely to get slammed. But you probably deserve it.

Or do you? A problem with a site like this, is that it eventually reflects back on the person running it. And you wonder, who is so uptight, and has so little else to do in life, that he or she has to make a snarky comment over a candid picture of some old schmuck with pins in his hat?

What's this old guy doing that is so terrible? You'd prefer a hedge fund intern taking the train into Wall Street wearing a Men's Wearhouse suit? Pick your targets a little better.

Another almost-good site is "Going with Eddie." While there's no shortage of moron sites where guys named Eddie riff, this one likes to highlight candid camera shots of people caught in the act of…being shits!

A sad part about this particular dotcom is that Eddie doesn't stop with candid camera shots. He and his silly-puppy friends have to do podcasts, and, har har woof woof, HAVE to have a crappy, totally amateurish and self-serving YouTube channel. Right, I really want to see some 20-something idiot in Brooklyn let out a giant long burp in front of his camcorder. How boring to see these D-List wanna-be's preen and smirk and carry on for…a few hundred hits. Happily, the reality with YouTube is there's way too much supply and not much demand. In other words, Eddie and his friends are not going to be joining Harvey Levin any time soon in big-time celeb-snarking on TMZ. Anyone who is remotely disapproving of the tasteless, moronic, and mannerless world of pop "culture" deserves a shout out. But, since "shout out" itself denotes a certain boorishness, my praise here is more of a "whisper out." Pssst…you guys are almost worth visiting more than once a month!

Adele Limericks by Edward Lear

That adenoid-thumping Adele

Is as loud as the Notre Dame bell

And her face on a photo

Looks just like Quasimodo

She's the most-played young artist…in HELL

Here's what I wrote to Adele:

"Your music and lyrics both smell.

Your shrill-siren bleating

Can start my ears bleeding

(signed) well wisher -- fall down a well!"

It seems like a bloody sick joke:

Adele painted and posing for Vogue!

She can't get any Vogue-er

But she's still the fat ogre

Whose dildo is Kylie Minogue

To Make an Adele Hit Single - by Edward Lear

To Make an Adele Hit Single - by Edward Lear

Tie Adele to a post. Place 5 pounds of currants, 3 of sugar, 2 pecks of peas, 18 roast chestnuts, a candle, and six bushels of turnips, within her reach; if she eats these, constantly provide her with more.

Then procure some cream, some slices of Cheshire cheese, four quires of foolscap paper, and a packet of black pins. Work the whole into a paste, and spread it out to dry on a sheet of clean brown waterproof linen.

When the paste is perfectly dry, but not before, proceed to beat Adele violently, with the handle of a large broom. If she squeals, beat her again.

Visit the paste and beat Adele alternately for some days, and play back the sounds she's made.

When the result gives you a migraine, add background music, put the result on iTunes, and Adele may be let loose, and the whole process may be considered as finished.

Saturday Night Live mocks BLACK GAY BASKETBALL windbag Jason Collins

Amusing in being disgusted, members of SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE opened May 4th's show with digs at Jason Collins and the kneejerk reaction some in the media had for praising his decision to come "out" as (gasp) a black gay man.

They mocked Obama's comments on Collins, and the whole concept of a has-been basketball player being called a "hero" because of his sexual peculiarities. Let's face it, there are plenty of peculiar ways people have sex, and quite a lot of them are anything but heroic. Eddie Murphy was excoriated for picking up a black tranny. Oscar De la Hoya was likewise laughed at for posing while crossdressed. Kelsey Grammar's not been declared a "hero" for such matters either. It's doubtful that anyone in the NBA, NFL or WBA or Major League Baseball would get anything but derision for declaring a fondness for wearing a diaper, being spanked, enjoying bondage or preferring sex with midgets.

In other words, what anybody does for a sexual kick CAN be pretty ridiculous. And that's often part of the turn-on.

Saturday Night Live's cast members: ""What is the president doing…congratulating basketball players for being gay?? Of course we support NBA player Jason Collins in his decision, but can we please stop calling him a hero?

Since when does telling your embarrassing person secrets amek you a hero?

Hey everybody, I prefer Asian ladies. I'm a hero….gimme a medal….

I will say I'm surprised that the first gay athelete was in basketball. I thought it would be in hockey, you know, because it's so close to figure skating!

I always thought it would be the guy in football who hikes the football. He's already in that position!

Jason Collins? Remember Brad Drewett. Comparing Apples and Homosexuals

Yes, it's a bit like trying to compare apples and homosexuals...in a world where HOMO means so much and the media, so HOMO, cares so much about their own...

But let's see who got more coverage this week. Brad Drewett or Jason Collins.

Jason Collins, who is a has-been who might play a few more years of basketball because he's gay and came out as such, was all over the news. He's GAY! OOOOOOOH!

Brad Drewett, an important figure throughout the world (because tennis tournaments matter everywhere; basketball only in America), got little coverage. What did he do? HE DIED

Yes, he's blooming well DEAD. And you know what he died of? ALS, which is now usually called "motor neurone disease." It was once known as "Lou Gherig's Disease."

Did anyone seize on Brad's death and ask for a little bit more money being spent on research of this disease? No. But a has-been nobody named Jason Collins tells the world that he's gay (after experimenting with women...much to their humiliation at this point) and people dance, cheer, scream how brave he is, call him "Jackie Robinson" and a hero, and bellow about how gay marriage should be legal.

The world is gay-happy. That's because the media is full of gays. If you check the movies, TV shows, and who is on TV, and what is covered in the news, you'd think gays were the majority, not the minority. We're all well aware of Ellen Degeneres and Rosie O'Donnell, and Parsons, that snippy twit who stars on some piece of shit called "Big Bang Theory." Elton John and his Furnished idiot husband or wife or whatever, is in the news constantly. BUT...oooh ooooh, Jason Collins came out BLACK and GAY and he doesn't happen to look or dress like Elton John So let's forget about something a lot more important.

Like, motor neurone disease.

This fucking (MAN-FUCKING, let's all celebrate his achievement) Jason Collins can go out tomorrow and suck all the cock he wants. His retirement from the NBA will not mean a retirement from LIFE.

But a real hero, Brad Brewett, learned he had ALS in January, and that his life was going to be over soon. OVER. That the thing he was good at (ask Andy Murray) was now beyond his abilities, and he would have to resign from his job. He died a few days ago.

Again, where was the news coverage? Where was the respect? We are much more concerned about some hulking clod in bad underwear telling the world he's homosexual? So he can maybe extend his useless career as a second-string or third-string basketball player for another year or two?

We're told that this is big news because there's "shame" and "stigma" attached to being a homosexual. Right. It's kept Anderson Cooper off TV. And Parsons. And Degeneres. No? It kept Emile Griffith from getting championship boxing matches DECADES AGO. No? ALS has no "shame" or "stigma" to it. It just kills you, after turning your body into a vegetable while your brain agonizes over this day after rotten day.

What is worse for an athlete like Lou Gherig or Catfish Hunter or Brad Drewett? Being told you can't marry somebody with the same genitalia, or being slowly crippled on your way to an early grave?

And yet, if you look at the news, especially American news, the #1 issue is GAY MARRIAGE. Children are being mowed down by assault weapons. Nah, GAY MARRIAGE! There are lethal diseases that have no cure. Nah, what about GAY MARRIAGE? Oh, and HIV AIDS??

No wonder the Muslims think they can blow Americans up. No wonder idiots from Loughner to Holmes and back figure they can mow down children and audiences in movie theaters. When a country has nothing more important on its mind than GAY MARRIAGE, and can think of "HERO" and "Jason Collins" in the same sentence...then sure. This is a weak, stupid nation.

The Muslims believe in tradition. Americans? They believe the past 2,000 years in which "marriage" means "man and a woman" is ridiculous. "Marriage" should mean a man and a man, or a woman and a woman, because a noisy 10% (or less) has 90% access to the media and screams, shrieks, cries, and carries on about a non-issue. A word. "Marriage." As opposed to "civil union," or a contract by which you share the same home and get the same tax breaks and you get the same inheritance breaks as any other couple. Nah. Not good enough.

And so this big nothing, which changes nothing, which is worth nothing, this "Jason Collins is a BLACK GAY MAN" story...gets all the attention. Just sit back and rot, ALS sufferers. And by the way, unlike Jason Collins, you don't have a choice about "coming out" with ALS. It just happens. To gays. To straights. It just fucking happens. And nobody will call you a hero as you resign your job, settle your business affairs, and try to make "good use of the time" you have left before you are barely the equivalent of a mannequin.

The media finds it amusing and titillating to show pictures of Jason Collins, and let the world imagine what his mouth and anus might be up to tonight.

The media turns away in disgust when it comes to news about Brad Drewett and others like him. I don't recall Catfish Hunter getting the front page of Sports Illustrated when he was diagnosed with ALS. If anything, he was shunned. Nobody wanted to hear about this terrible and fatal illness, not even when it happened to a Hall of Fame athlete (Jason Collins is not "Hall of Fame" anything...he'd hardly even be stand-out in an alley or a men's room...go look up his trading cards BEFORE he started calling attention to his sexuality...nobody was willing to pay a dollar for one.)

A cure for ALS. I hope that day comes very soon. The day when two idiots can wear identical outfits and prance down an aisle and call themselves "married?" Not a priority. A day when one's sexuality doesn't matter? That's never gonna happen, because people of ANY sexuality, fetish or idiotic preoccupation with their genitalia, are going to carry on about it, and frankly, be turned on ONLY if others disapprove. An exception might be having sex with someone who has ALS. This IS a fucked up world. Jason Collins can still marvel about just how fucked up it is. Brad Drewett can't.
