Hi folks; thanks for checking in, but I don't have too many worthy insights to share with you at the moment. Well, I do have a few. Given a certain sadness I'm experiencing today, it just seems best for me to offer a good laugh. I needed one; maybe you too.
I guess you have had to walk a life in my shoes to find the following clips somewhat funny. I find their hilarity in the "Yeah, I've been there; I get it," frame-of-mind a person needs to draw from once in a while.
Here's the first one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGQlZBvrNjE
If you are easily offended by rancorous behavior and bad language, then please do not watch it.
Have you ever seen the movie, Good Fellas? You can grow up in a New York suburb and be nothing like your neighbors. Really. My early education was bootlegging. When I say my dad was a moonshiner, I'm not kidding. Other kids were prepped for "normal things" when we were young, but "normal," as I've grown to acknowledge in time, is quite relative to one's perception, acquired and or intrinsic.
This clip is from the movie, True Romance. Much use of the n-word by Dennis Hopper. It is too rich for the ethnically challenged, ie, those who are unable to laugh at themselves; too high strung to accept their personal reality, genetic or otherwise. I laugh at a lot of things that have their humor buried under various layers of the taken-for-granted or gone-unnoticed. This context of eggplant inspired a cult following, and it makes me wonder: with my blue eyes from the north and my easily tanned olive complexion from the south, am I more eggplant or cantaloupe?
