We all hope our good friend and, perhaps for most of us, our dearest spiritual adviser, Russell, is doing well and that everything goes according to plan.
1. It is amazing how much time and energy the New York Times will spend trying to make sure that you, the reader, are aware about how much they do not like Bush or anything resembling a Republican. I believe they tolerate McCain because he is old and was beaten to the brink of death multiple times by the Viet Cong. If you do not want to read the article just look at the headline and think to yourself how unbelievably unnecessary this article truly was. I think it would be safe to say how close any of us are to anyone else depends on the issue. Maybe tomorrow they will write an article about how close Obama is to Karl Marx on a variety of issues.
2. I have a good feeling most of our readers knew about this story long before this post but I wanted to make sure it got up here. When will the time come where the fact that gay couples getting married no longer makes the front page of a major international newspaper? I long for the days when discrimination is no longer an issue and our nation's media outlets realize that no one gives a shit what gay people are doing as long as we do not have to talk about it. Straight people have been getting married for generations and you do not see us blasting it all over the front page of the Times. I just think homosexuals need to get over themselves is all I am saying.
3. In an effort to make sure that no one takes them seriously Entertainment Weekly decide to publish this little Internet gem. I probably wouldn't have minded it so much if the very first thing you see isn't Hollywood's most overpaid horse. My favorite parts is that Dermot Mulroney's character from the movie, The Wedding Date, which I know no one saw, made the list. I tried to look at all of the "hookers" they have listed but then I remembered what I was doing and slit my wrist, vertically, down my arm.
4. Esquire continues to show the world how relevant a men's fashion magazine can be. This is a cool concept and I love the Esquire tried to capture something from an alternative culture but I have been to Bonnaroo and there are a lot better t shirts there and not every single person at the festival is an overweight guy with an ironic t shirt on and no self confidence. Most of the people at Bonnaroo are skinny hippies, wear terrible t shirts and have little self confidence but a lot of their parent's money.
Alright, I feel like perhaps, for today, that this is plenty of news and links. I am just getting tired of looking for interesting things to post and to come up with smarmy things to say about them. Although, it is so much easier to look at other people's hard work, link it, and then tear it down with my own words. Who needs to create when I can tear down other people's work?
I just thought this picture was awesome. If you cannot read it, click the picture to get a better view. I want to say this was in some religious coloring book which also tried to teach children something about the world. I fear that we are in deep trouble if people can still get away with feeding children information like this. I almost do not want to think about it but I also want to be highly aware of the situation in the world.
