Ok…first off…I have to say that I, in all fairness, do like some Good Charlotte songs…and I will admit, even some of Hillary Duffs music is catchy..but here is my issue..Let me start with Hillary Duff…when I hear her lyrics, it only confirms that there is a lot of meaningless crap being shared through the airwaves when others who put a little time and effort into their craft, are not being recongnized…What makes me think this way? Here are some lyrics from Hillary Duffs song…”So Yesterday”…”If the light is off, then its not on”. PURE CRAP..and of course this is in that climax of the song where the music is building into something really emotional…and boom…crap lyrics. OK..so onto Good Charlotte. I like pop rock. I know…I should be ashamed of myself..but at any rate..one thing that annoys me…when bands say they love god and then get on TV shows being bleeped for telling someone to Fuck off (i.e…MTV Punked). Here are the lyrics that I mean…” Well I came in the door,yeah I said it before, I never let the stress get me down no more, Giving thanks to the Lord, you know I pray every day, Give shouts to my peeps and this is what we say”……I think people just shouldn’t have religion on a conditional string in songs.I mean…these lyrics don’t even fit in my opinion…But hey, for all I know, Im being really bias and judgmental and maybe the Good Charlotte boys do pray everyday and really do give thanks…good lord …Where am I going with this?

So Papa Johns Pizza has this special where if you buy a certain pizza, they will deliver a dvd…of your choice….lets just review the options…Don Juan..hmm..not too bad…Johnny Depp is cool…Trial and Error..hmm..a young Charlize Theron and Jeff Daniels movie Ive never heard of…..or Weekend at Bernies..what the hell kind of choice is this? Shouldn’t Weekend at Bernies really be destroyed by now? Is there any reason why copies of this movie are in circulation? Seriously…I love the caption with the ad that says…”collect them all”… yeah cuz god knows you can’t get these movies ANYWHERE ! Weekend at Bernies is the kicker for me..that just cracks me up..

I love the controversy surrounding this movie. Isn’t it interesting that the same people saying this movie is full of lies are the same people who went to see a man tortured for two hours in Passion of the Christ. We live in an interesting America. I remember posting (although the post got lost) about Bush's comments on "this is not our America" when the pictures of prisoners being tortured came out. I think Bush is delusional. "Our America" spends millions to watch violence and torture. We send our soldiers to war where they are enduring barbaric conditions and expect them not to create barbaric and questionable acts. War in itself is barbaric, is it not? We teach our children not to hit and have police cars with bumper stickers saying, "stop the violence" yet what do we do to other countries who dont do it our way? We bomb them. Michael Moore is awesome for putting his point of view out there. I love that we live in a time where movies like his can be seen. I saw this movie last night and there was a lot to take in. It made me literally sick to my stomach afterwards. Not because of any violence, but because of our government that rules for its own selfish profit over the people it is supposedly in place to serve. Its a powerless feeling. A leader who lacks confidence when he speaks and seems to appear like a child in daddy's dress up clothes, stammering and stuttering through every single speech or press conference ever given. The controversy isn’t a movie that comes out with a contrasting point of view, its a president that takes the dollar more seriously than human lives.

Both of these things have inspired me to think one word... WHY?...OK wait...more than why...but thats the clean word.
