  Hello friends Been some time now. I went to a 'writers store' today to buy final draft. Stores like that always bug me because there's all these books telling you how to do things. And the more time you spend in places like this the more you start to think that you need a book about doing something to be able to do it. You know what's weird about the emmys? Nobody cares about them. I know people watch them- I've watched them before. But nobody really cares about them except for the people who are winning. And even then I don't think it's SUCH a big deal to them.
I know somebody who has an Emmy, and it's pretty cool to hold it and it's definitely on display in the home. But at the end of the day, I don't think it's such a big deal to this person that they have one. Maybe this is how it should be. Because we place so much damn importance on the oscars. Which makes them silly in a reverse way. But the people who deny the value of their oscar are just trying to look cool. They love their oscars. It's probably because when you win an Oscar you are counted in history along with Marlon Brando, Jack Nicholson, Steven Speilberg, etc. And when you win an Emmy you are counted in history alongside Kelsey Grammar. But then again some people who win an Oscar are counted alongside Kevin Costner and some people who win Emmy's are counted alongside Jerry Seinfeld. It's a fucked up world we live in. I like when celebrities get upset for not having any privacy.
It seems like the one thing they have to complain about and they really zero in on it. Thats not entirely fair though. It's possible that some celebrities have normal shitty things happen to them just like the rest of us. But it's a lot nicer to have normal shitty things happen to you in a private jet. Some celebrities don't have private jets though. Like Ricardo Montalban. Is Ricardo Montalban a celebrity? Would he count himself as one? Would William Shatner count Ricardo Montalban as a celebrity?
Who's more likely to be in awe of Ricardo Montalban- William Shatner or Leslie Nielson? Is being gay enough on it's own to make someone funny? And if so, is being a woman enough, on it's own, not to be funny? And if both are true than where does that leave Ellen DeGeneres? The truth is though being gay and being a woman more likely make people not funny, which is part of the reason why Ellen DeGeneres is twice as unfunny as any unfunny person. It's because of this misconception about gay people being automatically funny that people keep giving her t.v. shows. Is Whoopi Goldberg a lesbian? I saw a postcard once while my roomate was buying an American Flag Keychain, and this postcard was of a really fat nasty woman posed on a beach in a bikini, barely covering herself.
I thought a few things. Firstly, where did they find this woman? She looked like she was homeless, because her hair was all messed up- and we all know that's a sign of homelessness. So did they go out one day looking for an ugly, fat homeless chick willing to pose on the beach for money? If so, did she ever in her wildest dreams think it would be for a postcard? Even if she wasn't homeless- Did they hold auditions? Did they put an add in Backstage west looking for a fat ugly woman? Did they contact plus sized modeling agets and ask for the ugliest model they had? How often do modeling agencies get calls like that? What's the market for ugly fat models? And once they got the woman in question, did they laugh at her while they were taking the pictures? Did they lie about what they were doing so she wouldn't know the whole thing was designed to capitalize on her ugliness as a source of laughter?
And, now that it's all completed, and she's got her paycheck, does she ever walk down the street and get recognized as that fat ugly chick from a postcard? Probably not- but does she ever come across the post card herself and laugh thinking 'Boy, I sure am funny looking and fat and disgusting'. Do her parents know? Or her kids? her friends? Or- god forbid- her husband? Do they see it at the key chain store and say, "Shit Olga, you really rocked on that postcard gig.
" Even more curious yet, is does this woman put on her resume, 'Posed naked on the beach for a postcard' And then when she comes in to the interview do the people look at the resume and think she's lying because she's fat and disgusting. In case that might happen is it possible that she adds on her resume, when describing the postcard job, 'it was for a joke because I'm really fat and disgusting and in this case being fat and disgusting was an asset, so don't be quick to judge when we meet when I interview for your job- you never know when having a fat and disgusting person will come in handy for some good laughs. ' It was some postcard, I'll tell ya.
