[kj] OT - Obama. .

Crap I just realised, I dunno what high brow comedy is...is Spike Milligan
high brow? I don't think he is.

Am I getting...stupider?

South Park vs. Kind Hearts & Coronets.

 

Well, I will admit to laughing when Carrey pelts his girlfriend in the
face with a snowball in Dumb & Dumber, but his films for me are
generally a laugh-free zone. Doesn't mean I'm right, though.

Just because it's low brow or physical or in your face comedy doesn't
mean it's not funny. Charlie Chaplin vs Oscar Wilde is just a matter of
taste.or Southpark vs.crap. I'm out of high-brow comedy to cite.where's
my bourbon.?

Gee, Darren -- are you saying you don't *like* either Carrey or Caruso?
; )

(for the record, I cannot abide by Carrey, either)

	Hmm.

	 

	Jim Carrey is an odious twat, actually. I cite "The Mask" as a
particularly noxious example of his slappable mugging. The exception
that proves the rule is "The Truman Show". Still, at least his hair in
the Letterman clip is long enough to throttle him with.

	 

	Caruso is an acting flyweight who has the most embarrassing
removing or replacing sunglasses as a prop adjunct to delivering an
appalling line (CSI : Miami is full of tripe like "Hmm." (removed
sunglasses) "Elephant dung." (replaces sunglasses)). "Jade" is his
absolute nadir.  His exception is "Session 9"; no idea where that came
from but the film, and Caruso, are great. Actually, didn't he do a Mamet
film? Mamet's direction sited Caruso's vapid, laboured style and
delivery pretty well.

	I might point out that I noticed this shit about David Carouso
eight hundred thousand years ago. And Jim Carey is God.

	Are you a CSI fan then, and if so, so you favour Las Vegas,
Miami, New York or Tunbridge Wells?

	What got us into this mess was Politicians selling our rights
down the river to business, decades ago.
	I would prefer to say realism, not cynicism.
	When we exert are rights of assembly and speech you end up with
this years G20 incident, but I am not saying do not protest, or
petition, as they are in essence still rights.
	It's all business as usual.

	Folk: Um, yeah -- I do. You don't have to, of course -- and
that's within your rights to do so. But I actually believe paying
attention, voting, calling your elected reps, speaking out and
volunteering in your community still count for something.

	No, I don't wear rose-colored glasses. But I refuse to cave into
cynicism -- that's what got us into this mess into the first place. 

	 

	Keep on truckin',

		 Ultimatley, it is Americans themselves who can help
turn things around. Because they, after all, are technically the
government.
