So I'm sitting here, at my desk at work. I've got 2 or 3 jobs I should be working on, but I'd rather ramble on a bit instead. So whats new in my life. Well, after 3 fucking weeks, I finally got to see House, M. D. last night. American 'Fucking' Idol has been on every night for the past 3 weeks, ruining my two hours of T.V. time. American Idol, or as my fiancee calls it,"The Hour Long Cell Phone Commercial." And its true. Maybe we're jaded..maybe we're seeing something different. But it seems like ever 2 minutes, Cingular Wireless has a plug on that show. I've got nothing against Cingular Wireless. They're capitalizing on a gold mine. You've got the mindless masses watching this "show" every Tuesday and Wednesday night, using their phone to "vote" for who they believe will be the next American Idol. Its hilarious. They think they are actually voting for the one they want to win. No, no, I'm not saying your votes don't count. I'm just saying that your vote doesn't make that big of a difference. The person that the shows producers want to win will win. Its kinda like the American voting process, ya know what I'm saying? A group of 12 business men decide on who they want to carry out their agenda. American Idol...American Elections..so many similarities between the two. And it seems like Bush has finally pissed off enough people to get him a 34 point drop in his approval rating on one poll, which is getting close his all time low of his entire presidency. This is how an interview between Bush and I would go:
BM: Mr. President, you want to open 6 ports up to a India-based company in order to do what?
PB: Well Michael, as you may know, my term is almost up. And so in order to live comfortably for the rest of my life, I made a deal with a few companies that will pay me royalties for the rest of my life...I mean, to stimulate the economy.
BM: But Mr. President, aside from your own personal greed, wouldn't it be more beneficial to the American people to keep those ports closed, preventing terrorism.
PB: The American Economy will benefit from it.
BM: Right, just like the American Economy benefited from your fathers selling of weapons to the Iraqis during the Persian Gulf War right?
PB: Um..well, um... look over there!
Yup... I knew it. Bush finally pissed off the right persons... I suppose he thought he could run the country without the help of the machine that made it possible for him to get into Office.
By the way, I made mention of a "fiancee." Yes, there is a woman out there that loves me for the prick asshole that I am. And I love her too. So, I asked her to marry me. And she said yes. Fell in love with her when I met her. She is so very similar to me.. yet her and I have so many differing view points. I believe a lot of that has to do with upbringing. She comes from a family that is relatively well off. I come from a family that lived paycheck to paycheck. There is just a slight difference in the two. However, she is into the same things I'm into, like video games, psychology, theatre arts, acting, stand up comedy, its so odd. Her and I have so many things in common... we fell in love with each other the first night we met.. and it just kinda went on from there...
And for the record, yes she knows the type of person I am. See, most people think I'm a jerk asshole to everyone. Thats not true. I'm a jerk asshole to everyone but the person I'm in love with. She's read my blog. She knows my attitude towards people. I'm filled with love and care for humanity, mixed with utter hopelessness for it. Its true. I believe that we, as a race, have the potential to evolve...because, like the Wizard once said,"Evolution didn't end with us growing thumbs, we evolve Ideas as well." And its true. Our evolution hasn't stopped. Its still going. Its only begun. How about we start with religion? How about we create a new religion? I'm not saying Christianity is bad. I'm not saying God doesn't exist or that Jesus doesn't exist. I'm saying its time to change things. I'm saying the old religions are outdated. Its time we, as a people, start evolving ideas.
I think that will be the way to peace. We let go of the old ways, and embrace a new ideal, together, as a whole. No more of this,"I'm right, you're wrong," mentality, but to come together and start moving forward. Religion is kinda keeping us, as a race, from progressing. Its time we stop believing everything the Media says. Its time we stop believing everything the Goverments tell us. Its time we become enlightened beings. Lets let go of the past. Lets move forward. Together.
