Authors, sign in!I'm on myspace. People can go to my page and listen to some of my music for free, woohoo! I've also managed to meet a few of my favorite musicians in cyber-space, including the most excellent jazz guitarist Henry Johnson, and I've manage to check up on my kids from time to time (not in the manner of one of my cousins who would email a niece or nephew and ask if they really wanted to post a picture of themselves hitting on a giant bong or if they were, in fact, 21 years old). Ahhh, kids, ahhh, parenting, ahhhh networking... ahhhhhh... but the thing that sold me on myspace and the thing that I pointed out to my good buddy Jeff was Tila Tequila's page. Ahhhh, Tila Tequila...
Tila Tequila... sorry, no link, can't seem to find one... maybe you'll be able hunt it down...
She is not the subject of my meandering. She's a driven, enterprising woman who knows what she wants and is going after it. Holy cow, is she going after it... I'm not a hater, I'm a marvelator! But I never got around to watching her tv show. I mean if I'm gonna sit down and watch some tv it has to be a football game or a basketball game or a good movie... otherwise I'm gonna sit there and practice scales and arpeggios and get distracted.
But there ARE plenty of haters. I'll just give you a sample:
"Tila appears to be yet another example of a woman who uses bisexuality as a marketing tool. These types of women are a disgrace and an embarrassment to true gay and bisexual people. Shame on MTV for promoting her. Go back to the sleazy men's magazines, Tila."
"She reminds me of a catfish. Not attractive AT ALL! She probably has, scabes, lice, herpes, mites, grubworms, tetter, fleas, warts - all sorts of crap."
"Tila Tequila is a low-brow attention whore who's the product of the sleazy straight men's mentality."
"This ugly THING is a G-O-O-K trying to use whoredom to get noticed. Say goodbye quick."
"This STD laden slope needs to get back to blowing rice farmers in her native third world country. Stop spreading diseases here you big headed whore! Your 15 minutes are UP!"
Impressive! Besides all the hate and bile there is the grammatical originality and invention!
Ok, I'll admit I'm not a big fan of The Donald. I finally caught part of his Celebrity Apprentice Show while on the old elliptical machine at the gym and it was just as vapid and shallow and pretentious as I figured it would be. And I can't stand the Los Angeles Lakers or the Boston Celtics. And what's a Buckeye... some kind of nut??? But all this hate...there's too much of it floating around... what else floats around so? If you hold it close to you and nurture it and feed it and polish it up as best you can, if you strive to share it with a community of like minded individuals on the internets, if you wait for your wife to fall asleep and slink over to the computer and google "gene simmons mediocre avaricious blowhard" (whoops...sorry...yes, I did...), if you do all this and more...you're still wallowing in your own floatacious slime...and no matter how you cut it, you are America's Next Top Bonehead. At least the objects of your rancor are out there doing something...
Get out a good book and read it...
Practice the Piano...
Work on your jump shot...
Go for a walk with your significant other...or maybe just give her a nice massage...
Buy some groceries and fix up a nice dinner...
And call me in the morning...
That'll be one hundred dollars...
Thank you.
