Fantasy
We all live in a fantasy world. Brought up on Faerie Tales and television, we actually believe that there's always a happy ending. We believe that if you try hard enough anythings possible, even in matters of the heart. No I honestly believe job wise if you try hard enough you can be pretty much anything ( rock stars and movie stars excluded ). That's why I can't watch these sappy romantic comedies, or romance movies period. They're just sentimental crap, as realistic as Hellboy. In the movie world Guy meets Girl, Girl doesn't like guy, guy spends all his time trying to win the Girl, Girl realizes she was wrong, happily ever after. Real world, Guy meets Girl, Girl doesn't like Guy, Guy spends all his time trying to win the Girl, Girl gets nervous, gets restraining order, Guy ends up bitter and alone. You can win a game, or fight for a position at work, but you cannot win something that's not out there to be won.
And how come most romantic comedies deal with infidelity. It's at the heart of all of these movies, You've Got Mail, 13 Going on 30, The Wedding Planer, My Best Friends Wedding, I could go on believe me. But in each of these movies a relationship is ended so the main characters can be happy. The irony is that women seem to love this crap! But I'm sure my wife wouldn't be to happy if I left her for "The Wedding Planner". They should make a movie based on the other persons perspective, the girl or guy who loses everything, so Julia Roberts character can be happy. They always skip over the 'victom'.
I know you're thinking " There only movies ", but there not, people tend to base the aspects of there life ( like relationships ) on what they think the other half wants. So a lot of guys (Who are desperatly trying to understand women), look to this sentimental crap for answers,for "What do women want?" but it's just fantasy. You're better off watching Monty Python to find the Holy Grail.

feeling a bit randy
I don't get it, if pretending to "moon" somebody is so terribly offensive, then why show it a hundred times on the news. So the people watching the game, of course, were "visually attacked" by Moss, but now everybody has seen it. Next time I hope he really moons the crowd. Now that would be something worth paying a fine for. I mean, if you have to "do the time", you might as well "do the crime" not just pretend. So my opinion, his actions were immature, childish, rude, and over the top. I hate all this dancing and celebration anyway, but come on, people need to get over themselves, how offended could you really be.

It's Showtime !!!
I love this show "Showtime at the Apollo". Not for the talent, but the crowd. It's such a cultural difference for me. The Black audience members are so supportive, White people will clap, and maybe give a standing ovation (at the end of the performance, first looking around to make sure everybody else is doing it), but these people are yelling," You go girl", and " Yeah, yeah", at any point they feel appropriate. I love it, I can't look away. Then you see the five or six white people in the audience, looking worried. It's a huge cultural gap, I think it's a blast, just not when I'm at the movies. The screen can't hear you, when I was little I remember seeing "Misery" at the Market Arcade, and everybody kept yelling, " Hurry she's coming back, ahhhh, go in the kitchen and get the knife !!!!" Not so amusing. So I'll keep watching the 'Appolo' because it's free.
