I sit here tonight, not feeling well, but I must type on!
What’s the deal with the Oscars? They vote, it’s subjective. Unfortunately I’ve chosen a business that puts my career in the hands of others, many not able to make accurate decisions. And certain audiences aren’t immune to this statement, they’ve been dumbed-down, almost to mongoloid levels (not you, you’re smart!).
Would you like having your destiny hinge on a phone call from some executive? I deal with results, not hunches and horoscopes (btw, I’m a Gemini).
This is why sports is the ultimate drama, it’s real and the better team or player usually wins, sometimes not, but at least the best of the best participate. I can name several very funny people you’ve never heard of. On the other hand, if some guy throws 90mph, he gets a chance, no questions asked.
Stats and numbers don’t lie, if you’re a great athlete they’ll find you. With entertainment, you must hope and pray the right people come out to see you. Is it Sopranos night?, do they offer free food?, is it in a cool neighborhood?, is so and so gonna be there?, etc.
It’s not about talent or laughs anymore, it’s about looks, packaging and favors.
Comedy has a become scripted smoke and mirrors. Where are the true buffoons?

I was home schooled in college, and when does the new Creed album drop?
