--- You know, I̢۪ve never

--- You know, I̢۪ve never been a fan of Courtney Love̢۪s.
The word “obnoxious” doesn’t really cover her or her behavior,
but it̢۪s the word that comes to mind when trying to describe her.
“Arrogant,” seems to work as well. We might also include
“Pompous,” “overbearing,” “idiotic,” “opportunistic,”
“vain,” “conceited,” “uppity,” and I’m sure we could
think of a whole host of other adjectives to describe Ms. Love, but
honestly, what does it matter?
She isn̢۪t brilliant---at all. Hole̢۪s music pretty much sucks, if
you ask me. She would obviously have us believe that there̢۪s
something new and worth listening to there, but believe me, it ain̢۪t
all that impressive: it̢۪s just a rehash of what she thinks should be impressive---she doesn̢۪t create anything new. She̢۪s also a bad actress---and don̢۪t tell me her performance in The People vs. Larry Flynt was impressive: it wasn̢۪t---she wasn̢۪t acting, she was just being Courtney. Acting, it seems to me, requires being
someone else for a time: Courtney can̢۪t be anyone other than herself
because her sense of ego is too strong to allow for it (see Cruise,
Tom). Courtney̢۪s main talent, it appears, is making opportunities for
herself with a little help from her friends---oh, and her husband, lest
we forget about him. Do you honestly think anyone would give a rat̢۪s
ass about Courtney Love if she wasn̢۪t Kurt Cobain̢۪s widow? I
personally think she would have pulled a Sharon Stone move from Casino
and ended up alone, in a sty. It̢۪s sad and cynical to say so that she
profited from her husband̢۪s death, I know, but it̢۪s the God̢۪s
honest truth: she made the most out of his suicide: it put her on the
world stage and she took full advantage of it. Look at it logically:
did anyone, outside of Seattle, know who she was before he died?
That̢۪s the reason why I despise her---and I̢۪m not a big Nirvana
fan. (I think most of their music, while decent, hadn̢۪t reached its
true potential---and if you honestly think Kurt Cobain was the true
genius behind that band, I would direct you to the Foo Fighters. The
more I listen to that band, the more it̢۪s patently obvious that Kurt
was not
the driving force behind Nirvana: Dave Grohl was.) It̢۪s the simple
fact she thought it was all right to make some money off her
husband̢۪s death that I find disgusting: she parlayed his suicide into
a money-making, celebrity granting, drug ridden excursion. Her
despicable golddigging widowhood aside, she̢۪s in need of serious help. The only reason I say this is because she has a child.
Yes, that̢۪s right: a child. If she can̢۪t get her shit together for
herself, she needs to get it together for her daughter. That poor girl.
I cannot even begin to imagine how screwed up she̢۪s going to be when
she hits adulthood. Her dad offs himself, her mother overdoses in front
of her---and that̢۪s the least of the sins of the mother that this
child has been exposed to---if any of the child psychologists are
correct, she̢۪s going to fall into the same vipers pit her parents
fell prey to. Ugh. --- HALLELUJAH!

Moore said he was not surprised by the decision, which he called a
step toward "prohibiting the public worship of God." "I have absolutely
no regrets," he said. "I have done what I was sworn to do. I have said
repeatedly that unless we can acknowledge God, we can not uphold the
oath of our office."


I̢۪ll say it again. First, there is a separation of Church and State in this country Mr.
Moore: God---which means any and all inclusions of God---is not a topic
to be brought into the legal system. Second, I doubt you have the
capacity to realize that even though you̢۪re spouting off about some
non-denominational idea of God, you don̢۪t honestly believe that. Your
religion dictates that everyone who doesn̢۪t believe in your
idea of God is going to hell, and no matter how many times you try to
tell me otherwise, your actions speak louder than your words. God is a
subjective idea for most, but not for you, so spare me your arguments:
even the Supreme Court wouldn̢۪t listen to you.
Now pull yourself down from the cross. We need the wood. (and yes I
stole that line, but it seemed appropriate under the circumstances.)
--- Ok, Keanu is set for life.

According to imdb, he pulled down $15mil a piece for both Reloaded and Revolutions plus 15% of the gross of each film.

So, doing the math, he made, roughly, a little more than thirty million last weekend alone.

Can you say, “Papa got BANK!”?

Papa̢۪s definitely
got a good agent. Methinks Keanu is not nearly as dumb as everyone
would have us believe. --- And while we̢۪re speaking of Keanu, he̢۪s
got a new movie coming out with Jack Nicholson and Diane Keaton this
holiday season. It̢۪s called Something̢۪s Gotta Give and it looks to be amusing.

Check out the trailer here.

--- And here̢۪s your Chuckle for the Day. I think the next Olympics are going to be a wee bit different than the Salt Lake City Olympics, don̢۪t you?

Heheheheh.
