Important Stuff -- Or Not: Anna Who?

Anna Who?

I woke up from a nap Thursday to hear Anna Nicole Smith had died -- under pretty much the same circumstances that her son had. What a wasted life. Marilyn Monroe died nearly 45 years ago and she is still a legend. Nobody will remember Anna Nocole Smith 45 years from now. She did nothing. She left behind no enduring body of work. She did not leave the world a better place than when she entered it. Nothing. She was one of those people who was famous for being famous, and in today's increasingly corrupt climate, she did not survive the experience.

I could go on and on about celebrities, the loss of their talent, blah, blah, blah, but are any of them worth it? These aren't my Daddy's celebs.

HOWEVER, I'm getting sick of how the media covers drivil. From that crazy astronaut, which isn't really that unique to celebs life and ignoring what really is important or steering it to some twisted perspective that doesn't resemble the truth.

I barely can watch the news, including Oreily, for this reason. I guess the Bible is right there is nothing new under the sun. We have the same cult of personality that the ancient Greeks had...at least their cults were supposedly deities.; 4:24 AM

J.M. Rob said...: For future posting, save this entry and all you will have to do is substitute the name "Anna" and insert "Paris". Everything else would still apply.; 9:47 AM
Lone Ranger said...: Now they're saying that Chris Farley died like exactly like his idol, John Belushi and Anna Nicole died exactly like her idol, Marilyn Monroe. Not so. There were no Kennedys involved this time.

To Paris, I would also add Lindsey and Britney. I guess there are more, but I don't know about them. I'd suggest these young women were raised by wolves, but wolves have a much more structured society.

Imagine Shirley Temple growing up to be an out of control druggie. She would have been shunned, not feted by the media.; 10:43 AM

Talking Points

I don't use talking points, I create them.

25 Immutable Truths About Liberals

Over the years I've been writing this blog, I've been throwing out little self-evident truths that seem to have no exceptions that prove the rule. I've made a list of some of them and will add to it as I remember them or make up more. Most of this list I've come up with myself. A few I've borrowed from others.

1. Always expect the worst from a liberal and you will never be surprised.

2. Never try to reason with a liberal. They disregard any evidence that conflicts with their beliefs.

3. You can always tell what liberals are up to by what they accuse conservatives of doing.

4. Liberals don't debate, they argue.

5. The only standards liberals have are double standards.

6. Liberals feel, conservatives think.

7. Whenever you don't understand a liberal's motives, just look for the money.

8. Liberals cannot be embarrassed. They lack the gene to blush.

9. The Liberal Golden Rule is, "Do unto others but scream bloody murder if they do unto you."

10. Liberals don't have leaders, they have demi-gods.

11. There are no honest liberals. If they were honest -- especially to themselves -- they would be conservatives.

12. A liberal's business is nobody's business, but everyone's business is a liberal's business.

13. Liberals have an inflated sense of self-worth. They are like house flies that criticize the air-worthiness of a Stealth fighter. (Sarah Palin, George W. Bush, ad infinitum are morons.)

14. Liberals lack a sixth sense that conservatives have in abundance -- common sense.

15. Liberals never stop hating.

16. There are only two types of liberals -- the deceivers and the deceived. The difficulty is telling them apart.

17. Every time liberals get on their high horse, they get bucked off.

18. Liberal programs are so wonderful that they have to be forced on people.

19. Liberals always choke on their own medicine.

20. When given a moral choice, liberals always come down on the wrong side of the fence.

21. The only way liberals can build themselves up is by tearing others down.

22. Liberals not only refuse to learn from their mistakes, they refuse to admit them.

23. Liberals have only two political positions -- blind devotion and blind hatred.

24. Liberals are incapable of attacking the message, so they always attack the messenger.

25. Liberal diversity is only skin deep.
