Stardom???

Why should I give a shit about what movie Ann Hathaway is making next? Why do I care how she worked so well with this actor or that? Does she give a flying crap that I worked 14 hours embalming and restoring someone who was run over by a train and the family wants to say goodbye one more time? What makes their job so Goddamn important to us that we feel the need to follow their every fart, meal, affair, car crash and drunken encounter? It's absolutely insane. People in this World are working hard to truly help and change it for the better. Working hard to make a mark. Working to save a life. Working hard. Where are their cu dos? The recognition goes to those who we perceive as famous. Those that we are told are famous. Told by such trusted "news" agencies as Entertainment Tonight, Entertainment Weekly, The National Enquirer and a variety of other rags that brag about these overpaid douche bags. Where are the publications telling the stories of the true heroes of our nation? The ones like you and I. The hard working Joe's who work our asses off everyday to earn enough money to get by. We stop at a car accident to help, we give money to the Salvation Army even though we can't afford it, we give food and time to the soup kitchen, we give our time, treasure and talents because we want to. We don't do it because it is a photo op and my publicist thought it would be good considering I got caught with drugs last week. Next time you get caught "star gazing", think again. Think again who the real stars are in this World are. Not the ones you see on the screen, but rather the one's paying for the ticket's and walking into the theater.

It's Over....It's finally over

The holidays are finally over and all the bullshit that goes along with them. The "true" meaning of Christmas as we all know has been gone since corporate America has stuck its nose into our f*'n wallets and shipped the mangers to be made in China. It's almost comical the way all of this happened and the way we allowed it to happen. It's like we just don't care. We let the commercials steer us to this store and that store and purchase this worthless thing or that. We are cattle being led to slaughter. Financial slaughter. We do the best we can for our families and make it the best Christmas that we can, then turn on the news and are told that we should feel bad for the stores whose sales are down. SCREW THEM!! They are the one trying to lead us and for once we pulled back. They don't like it and we are supposed to feel bad? Suck it. If it were not for the average Joe working their, I wish all of these super stores would go belly up and see what it feels like to have no money. See what it feels like to not have any extra and to wonder how to pay your creditors. Now.....let's just say that you do have creditors calling you for payment on late credit cards, car payments etc.... They have balls of titanium to ask you for money considering they just begged borrowed and stole money from the government (a.k.a.....YOU) to bail them out of their poor financial dealings. Explain that to them and that will make their head spin for a month or two to allow you enough time to gather some money. Just a random thought that I hope works. Sorry I am all over the place. I have a lot going on in this melon of mine. First blog and all. I will be more streamlined in the future. Keep reading for more random thoughts. Thanks...Kurt
