You know in the movie Titanic where Jack is drawing a portrait of Rose? It's romanticized when found later?
I would like to point out that we don't live in that world anymore.
Gone are the days where photos are truly private and held in some safe regard,
tucked away to be cherished only by a select few.

What am I talking about?

Nude pics of celebrities that shockingly "leak out" to the public over the internet of course.
This sort of stuff always seems like a "my career is stalled" stunt to get the person in the
news and its annoying. "Oh I took nude pics with my phone, hope they don't get out." Stupid.
Seriously stupid. Maybe their phones get hacked. I don't know. It's not a world I'm familiar with
I guess. It just seems like a nose stretcher to me.

I'm onery.

I've had no real ability to express my sarcasm vocally due to laryngitis and its killing me.

KILLING ME.

Have you got a typeface called Garamond Semibold? I have the Garamond and bold and italic but not the semibold. I am doing a poster for Cathy and I reckon garamond would look good.

One of my favorite podcasts is Hollywood Babble-On with Kevin Smith and Ralph Garman. I never miss it. Ralph Garman cracks me up with his voices and impressions. There was one podcast awhile back about the Rebecca Black "Friday" song that even today, makes me laugh out loud. Its sooooo wrong on many levels but so funny. Ralph Garman does a comparison and impression of a special McDonald's worker singing the Friday song along with meal suggestions.

At the 4:00 minutes in I am sitting at work, laughing to myself in my cube knowing, this is sooooo wrong.

I just read an article on How the Kardashians made $65M last year. I know, I know, as if there needs to be an article written and as if I need to admit reading it..*cough* allthewaythrough *cough*. But, there is something about articles like this. People who are famous for seemingly looking like they do a lot in the media because of the coverage. But when broken down, its all face value, literally.In my opinion, the merit given to any of what they got paid for only reinforces my belief that beauty and brains are,more often than not, rivals. Society loves a pretty face. And don't get me wrong, I can enjoy beauty just like anyone. The Kardashian girls are beautiful. No question. What bothers me is we live in a society where those who educate future generations make about 4% per year of what the Kardashians made from selling their face and name over a show about nothing. There isnt a balance of wealth for for those who are truly in the trenches everyday trying to make the world a better place.

But they give back you say? They join in on the various celebrity stands such as "I will not tweet until this charity makes X amount of money" pretentious BS. Can you just imagine if your local school down the street said they wouldn't tweet until they got a raise? Theirs no uprising, no funds being allocated, no big media blitzkrieg. Those local educators do a strike and then they are replaced if they don't give in and that's that. The gratification of a few more children who graduate because of a teacher that saved them from failing is far less than seeing the new Kim Kardashian super bowl ad for shoes and a shot of an over-exposed backside. Our values are skewed by pretty opportunists.

Weak needs that falter to batting eyelashes.
