Ari is the best husband ever.

Okay, so it's occured to me, after a few drinks, that El Jay? A lot like Hollywood and the entertainment industry. Just on a different scale.

You've got your writers/actors, your beta/managers, you've got rec people/agents and artist/directors and you know, like fucking everybody. Everybody helps the industry run, from the extras and grips to the 20 million dollar divas. You've got action stars and porn stars and comedians and dramatic queens. You've got jack-of-all-trades. Hell, you've got like tiers, and activists and shit too. Which then begs the question, in Tinsel Town and all it's satillite areas, New York City theatre, London chic, Bollywood hotties, who the hell are you?

I think I'm like Samuel L. Jackson, the ex-crackhead who just appeared out of nowhere, and then was in every goddamn thing known to man, and you're like, WTF? Snakes on a Plane?! Not always good, not always great, but definitely entertaining in that, "Oh, well, it's just Sam" way.

I reckon this prolly works in the music industry too, but they have bands and stuff, and no one person is a band. You can get your OTP to be a duet, but no man is a band.

John Donne is totally spinning in his grave. Rock.


Tomorrow, I'll do the one with the made up titles. Mebbe. I need another drink.

If we're being matching nationalities, I spose Anna Paquin, what with the dabbling about but only successful in a franchise. But really, tonight Matthew I'm going to be Lee Tamahori.

You just want to dress in drag and then be dragged in by the LAPD. I know what you're all about.

Ahem.

Tamahori Escapes Prostitution Charge


Prostitution charges against former James Bond director Lee Tamahori have been dropped after the movie-maker pleaded no contest to criminal trespass charges. The Die Another Day director was arrested in Hollywood last month after he approached an undercover vice cop and offered to perform a sex act for money. Tamahori was dressed in drag at the time. In court Thursday morning, Tamahori, who was not in attendance, was placed on three years probation and ordered to attend an AIDS education course. He must also perform 15 days community service.


From imdb. (http://www.imdb.com/news/wenn/#celeb3) Of course, on the same page is a story about how Sam I signed up to do Snakes on a Plane based on the title alone. Too much crack, man.
