Random rants for a Thursday night….
Does anyone watch Idol, Survivor or any of these other "reality" shows anymore? If the answer is yes, then I sure have missed the boat on it!What is the deal with Rapper's and athletes who believe that laws don't apply to them anymore? Chris Brown – Moron, sadly though as a rapper this extra "pub" he's getting for "allegedly" striking a woman (who apparently but unconfirmed is Rhianna), will probably make him bigger, better and a huge draw in HipHop circles. Oh I am feeling old again.
Recession? What recession? Cineplex reported earlier today their largest profit quarter ever for the quarter ending in December. Funny but the movie business put out an incredible array of great movies and profits were up, versus last year's crap when profits were down. So far, no one in Hollywood is blaming downloading for the latest increase in sales, but I bet it's going to happen soon!
Is Larry King dead? Someone should tell him, cause he keeps showing up on TV night after night – the only thing missing is a drool pan.
Speaking of dead, and without wanting to appear obsessed with dead people, my favourite part of any awards show is the part where they pay homage to the people "we lost" since the last show…I may be the only one out there, but it always seesm to me that I missed at least half of the deaths on every show. Grammy night I learned of Eartha Kitt, Bo Diddley (Great Tribute FYI), Mike Smith (I loved the DC5) and of course my fave, Jerry Reed….I really have to pay better attention….In fact that's going to be my resolution for 2009 (is one allowed to make a new year's resolution 45 days into the new year or is that bad luck?), to pay better attention to the obituaries in Rock n Roll!
Dead III – Amy Winehouse???? Come on chicky, you've had your fun, now sing or just die, no more drunken stupids human tricks….And poor Lily Allen seems to be following in your footsteps, minus the drugs, but plus the JaggerMeister! Whatever happened to the good old days in Rock n Roll ,you know, the days of Jimi, Janis, Keith, Kurt, Elvis, you remember those days, when drunks were drunks and rock n roller's just overdosed to spare us the long drawn out good byes.
And to cap it all off….Why is gas so bloody expensive, considering it's $34.00/barrel, every notice that we just seem so blasé about these things now?
