Thriller

Why is it that we, as Americans, feel compelled to buy the records of people immediately after they die?
With Jacko stopping, because he got enough (not mine, but i wish it was) last week, the Billboard charts are once again being dominated by the King of Pop, for the first time in decades.
It's like when John Lennon was killed, and the horrible Double Fantasy went from selling 15,000 to going platinum in a week and Nevermind getting back on the charts when Kurt Cobain killed himself.
Now that the guy is dead, you gotta have the music, and you gotta have it now.
You didn't have it last week.
You aren't going to listen to it next week.
Is it to pile on?
So you have something to talk around the watercooler?
Because you're a boring ghoul?
I would like to know, and so would the man in the mirror.

A Note to Hollywood

Please stop blowing up landmarks.
I'm over it.
Also Parkour is not inherently cool.
People who do parkour are not inherently cool.
Hence, stop doing the cool parkour thing.
It does not make things cool.
especially when there is a landmark blowing up behind it.

Holy Outrage!

okay,
the price of stamps has gone up.
if you are angry about this, there is something wrong with you.
44 cents to send something across the country is not that much.
if there is actually someone in the world who can't afford the price bump, i think you may have worse problems than the price of a stamp.
please keep all of this in mind reporters.
isn't there someone with a bellyache in Nepal you can start a pandemic alert about?

The Big Question

With a historic election right around the corner, and the economic crisis affecting everyone from Wall Street to Main Street (can we stop using this by the way?), North Korea and Iran restarting their nuclear program, and pirates stealing Ukrainian weapons from the sea, I think there is one every important question I need answered:
Was Cloris Leachman always this big a whore or is this something new, to appeal to the kids or something?
It just seems weird.
And its kinda freaking me out.
