You can find the deluuuuuuuuusion

You can find the deluuuuuuuuusion here.

Time for Moore, an Academy Award winner for his gun-culture
documentary ``Bowling for Columbine,'' to tell all on himself.
``There's a character that is often written about that is often times
largely invented by the media, and it's called Michael Moore,'' said
Moore, 50, whose previous credits include ``Roger & Me'' and the
television shows ``TV Nation'' and ``The Awful
Truth.'' ``It took me a few years to figure this out, but that guy
isn't really me.
``I read things, negative things about my flaws or whatever. I go, you
know, they don't have to make this stuff up. If anybody would just ask
me, I have lots of things wrong with me.''
The awful truth about Moore: Work ethic. ``I'm lazy. I'm a lethargic
individual. I strive
to do nothing. ... I watch too much TV. Some days, I watch four, five
hours of TV, just completely vegged out, completely zoned out.''
Reading habits. ``I don't read enough novels, I don't read enough
fiction. I love to do that, and I don't take the time to do it. I'm not
as well read as I should be on that level.''
Body and spirit. ``I clearly have put my health second. Taking care of
myself is second to everything else I'm doing. That's a horribly stupid
thing to do.''
Despite his pudginess, Moore said doctors routinely proclaim him in
good health, though they admonish him, ```Mike, get up and walk around
the block.' I don't do that.''
``I don't take care of my spiritual needs as well as I should. I try to
go to Mass as often as I can, but not out of some obligation, some rule
of the church, a hierarchy that I completely disagree with. Its
attitudes and policies and treatment of women. I come from the other
end of Mel Gibson's Catholic church.''
Self image. ``I'm very shy, I'm very introverted. I think I was able to
ask out one girl in high school, and I didn't do much better after high
school, and I just had to wait around for people to ask me out. I can't
stand looking at myself in a movie. ... I don't have enough of an ego.
I read that (about his supposed egomania), but then I remember, that's
that other Michael Moore.''

There's a pill out there for everything, right? Question of the day: is
there a pill large enough that it could work on Michael Moore? UPDATE: Not only is Moore in need of psychiatric help, he's a founding member of the Copperhead Feyadeen. My homework's done, Mom. Can I go and watch TV now?

UPDATE 2: It would probably help if I learned how to spell
"fedayeen."
