What's next? I don't know, do you? Who am I? I am someone who makes films. What do I do? I look through viewfinders. And how do I live? I live by the skin of my teeth.

The Name Of The Rose, Part Deux

I choose this image, because my thougts have to do with the Roman Catholic Church and its strict ass-whipping of peoples minds throughout the centuries that it's been around.

Have you been following the eruption of the Intelligent Design Debate that has poisoning our news outlets since its teaching was being denied in a Pennsylvania school district.

Last night the author of this book DARWIN'S BLACK BOX was yammering on Hannity & Combs about the value of his theory, even though it's nigh impossible to prove.

Intelligent Design sounds like an updated version of Creationism which is the bete noir for Darwin's Theory of Evolution/Natural Selection Concept. A friend of mine recommended that I read DARWIN'S BLACK BOX a couple year ago, but I never got around to it -- perhaps I should haven, although I might have thrown the book across the room (incidently, I decided to read GUNS, GERMS & STEEL instead, which is more than fascinating and captivating).

Anyway, as I listened to this guy Behe stridently argue with those provacateurs on Fox News this whole argument/debate began to remind me of something. And that something is Umberto Eco's novel THE NAME OF THE ROSE (which everyone should read, if they interested in understanding the absurdity of the Catholic Church). At the crux of the novel, behind the murder mystery and the denial of knowledge is this Church Debate between the Papacy and the Franciscian and Dominician monks in regards to whether or not Christ owned his clothes (as that would determine if the Church should take a vow of poverty).

Eco uses this damn-fool theological battleground to indicate the complete idiocy that people get concerned with when it comes to how did life as we know it come to exist on this planet.

You have to take into account their MUST be intelligent energy fields throughout the universe, otherwise how could you explain why we are here?

In THE NAME OF THE ROSE, no one seems to ask "why the fuck do we care if Christ owned his clothes or not, because there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY to prove it." Yet these people (based off of real life shit) were actually calling each other heretics and getting people fucked over by the Inquisition and burned at the stake all in the name of some jackass principal.

I'm not one to say that you shouldn't fight long and hard for yout beliefs (otherwise you're a supreme bitch-ass), but what true consequence to the world that you inhabit occurs is Christ owned his clothers or to the point I'm addressing, if life evolved from Creationism, Intelligent Design or Natural Selection? On a certain level, natural selection requires a intelligence. You have to learn how to spot what is a fucked-up trait and what isn't?

WIll the world be better off if Intelligent Design taught in school? Fuck no. Will it be better off if Creationism is taught in school? Fuck no. Will it be better of is Evolution is taught in school? Fuck no.

See there is no gain from this course of perversion of study... why does it seem that this type of shit is always being fought over in the US Courts? 'Cause a high percentage of the US public (something 25%) are Evangelical Christians, and they not only want to have their beliefs, they want YOU to have their beliefs too! Whether you like it or not!

It's all still a Church v. State argument, and that should be curtailed to private study. Don't waste tax dollars on this field. If you belief in any of the possibilities, then go to college (or the library) and learn about this shit on your own AT YOUR OWN EXPENSE.

Get Your Head Out Of Your Oil-Stained Ass


Syriana
Originally uploaded by Phalanx.
In the wake of the release of the George Clooney star vehicle SYRIANA, Entertainment Weekly is running an article about "hot button" films.

First off, Syriana is easily one of the top five films to come out this year, perhaps in the past 3 years -- why? Because it is designed to make us examine the shit-ass politics and activity that Americans (and the Western/Modern world in general) need to re-examine, as in what the fuck are we doing to control to world's oil supply, and why are we doing anything to tackle the problem of the coming age -- renewable energy.

As a film, Syriana is complex, complicated, marvelous, startling, engaging, interesting, curiousity invoking, provacative, and entertaining (it better be that or the audiences THAT NEED TO SEE THIS movie, just won't come).

But the movie is coming under attack from the likes of Bill O'Reilly on his sham of show, claiming that George Clooney's two December films are flops. I think if the audience isn't going to see those films, it's because the audience that is under the age of 30 is damn dumb when it comes to world affairs and the history of the US before 1980... I mean, I has hanging out with this fool who just graduated from UCLA with a history degree and we were watching part of Oliver Stone's JFK, and this fool was lost as the story began to unfold, he kept asking questions about things that should have been obvious, should have been part of the study course for our youth. However, that wasn't the case... for this fool.

A movie like SYRIANA isn't about to cause public outrage, unless people are truly feeling guility about something. And maybe 'cause of the demand for cheap-as-fuck oil is making people feel like they shouldn't be chastised by some "rich-ass liberal" like Clooney (I happen to agree with his politics, though).

All This Talk About "The Enemy". uh which enemy are we talking about?


public enemy

Today the Chump-in-Chief Prescott's Grandson who has the dubious distinction of being the 43rd president answered questions today about the potentially illegal wiretapping that the NSA has been doing on American citizens on US soil.

Shrub's main reason for actively flaunting the law -- this time -- is the al-Qaeda is THE ENEMY, and this Enemy adapts to the rigors of war (what combatant doesn't? A dead one!).

Bush be up here throwin' 'round the term THE ENEMY like it's coded word to increase the level of paranoia amongst the citizenery, and is shown a glimpse into the mind of a man who's out of touch with the people he's governing (whether they wanted him or not).

Also it smacks of a binary intrepretation of the world stage -- you're either with us, or against us!

I wonder if there is going to be any kind of repercussions for Bush? Probably nothing like what Clinton suffered through just 'cause he stuck a cigar in an interns dickslot! I mean the man authorized the transgression of a mainstay of American governmental standards (even if those standards deal with clandestine operations) -- we don't spy on our people, unless we get a court order. How hard is it to get a court order? It can even been hush-hush so the vigilant press corps can't blabber the info to the world and technosphere...

I'm not one to say that the terrorist threat isn't real, and needs it's just focus, but I know that the government uses this so-called ENEMY THREAT as a means to fuck with our general wellbeing and stress levels.

No wonder people call 43 and his team THE DEVIL.

A High-tech lynching for upity Blacks.

I was reminded of Clarence Thomas' retort to Anita HIll this morning as a shuffld through CNN.COM... they ran a story on phrases that quickly became part of the every day lexicon, stuff like "if the glove doesn't fit, then you must aquit" and "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Monica Lewinsky."

Thomas decried Anita Hill by claiming she was seduced (money or otherwise) to step forward and that her testimony was character assassination/public lynching for an upity "nigga." (my quotes)...

Honestly, I don't even understand this man's thought processes, and how he can in good conscience continue to serve as a Supremor. It still rattles the hell out of me, and it's probably what? 15 years old at this point. But damn, the man just has no sense of leadership, no sense of being a trailblazer and he's stridently anti-"can a brotha get a hand-out" in a time when Niggaz are getting beat-up by society in a way that they have never had in the past.

It's worse now that even for the so-called African-American because the insidiuous pressures of the popular age have sliced the black man's Achilles' tendon, and he's up here bleeding and no one's even thinking he's hurt 'cause he's sporting some gold jewels.

Bitch ass nigga doing bitch moves... Clarence's epitaph

Words!?!? Never touch the stuff!


Graduation Day
Originally uploaded by Phalanx.
Remember what I said a couple months ago? That America is going to lose its higher standard of living and everything that made up the American Century, because of the ignorances that permeates the children of the future?

Today a literarcy study came out for college grads, and the results were downright appalling. The kind of stuff that makes you wonder, "will my children hear that high pitched Punjabi voice as his boss in a wage slave job?"

I said it before, and I'll say it again. American kids would rather be "cool" than no how to analyze the works of Marcel Proust or even Jonathan Frazen for that matter.

The test found steep declines in the English literacy of Hispanics in the United States, and significant increases among blacks and Asians. Which is really no surprise -- niggas can't get ahead no matter how hard they try -- if they continue to do it they way they have been doing it since the end of slavery (has it really ended though?)

When the literarcy test was last administered, in 1992, 40 percent of the nation's college graduates scored at the proficient level, meaning that they were able to read lengthy, complex English texts and draw complicated inferences. But on the 2003 test, only 31 percent of the graduates demonstrated those high-level skills. There were 26.4 million college graduates. What that's like 7.9 million kids have no business getting their diploma, let alone the fact that the money they spent on so-called higher education was wasted, worse then if they burnt it with naplam, 'cause these idiots thought they were learning something.

The college graduates who in 2003 failed to demonstrate proficiency included 53 percent who scored at the intermediate level and 14 percent who scored at the basic level, meaning they could read and understand short, commonplace prose texts.

Three percent of college graduates who took the test in 2003, representing some 800,000 Americans, demonstrated "below basic" literacy, meaning that they could not perform more than the simplest skills, like locating easily identifiable information in short prose.

Short prose? Oh, you mean like the dumbass paragraphs in MAXIM or PC GAMER or PEOPLE or COSMO or US WEEKLY... the kind of shite I'be been claiming is designed to make people more and more dumb, as in unedjumacated.

I'm Kanye West is saying, should've been a college drop-out, then you wouldn't have to worry about your literacy ability... you'd have an excuse! To be so dumb, and confident.

Down With Niggas... Again!


Ex-Crip Tookie Williams
Originally uploaded by Phalanx.
So it seems that Tookie Williams was denied clemency by the notorious Arnold Schwarzeneggar.

After nearly thiry years in jail, and being nomiated for a Noble Peace Prize, the O.G. is about to face the electric chair in about 6 hours from now!

Notorious Arnie Schwarzenegger could have commuted Tookie's death sentence to life in prison without parole, but he opted to say "fuck you, nigger" and thumb his nose at the huge amount of Blacks and anti-gang activists and keep the lynching going ahead as scheduled.

Can you imagine of death sentences were carried out like lynchings? Cutting off dicks and skinning and dipping fools in tar?! That would be some wild-ass shit.

The California National Association for the Advancement of Colored People said it was saddened by the governor's decision. "We believe this is a serious blow to our effort to fight gangs," its president, Alice Huffman, said.

Obivously, Infamous Schwarzeneggar doesn't give a fuck about people trying to rehabilitate themselves. I mean think about it, the California state pens must be some of the foulest, dangerous, scariest places on the face of the planet, and for Tookie to rise to the level of nearly winning a Nobel Prize in that scabarous environment is a true testament to the strength of the Black man's spirit.

Tookie easier could have become a murderous monster in prison, ruling over the cellblocks like Wilson Fisk.

Sadly, we see another Black man getting killed by the State... a state run by a non-American, who has adopted the race-hating ways of this so-called great nation (hogwash if you ask me).

I wonder what the gang-bangers are gonna do? Riot? Let's hope so!

Oh she must be angry, even with hard nipples

Apparently the reports about Brad Pitt adopting Angelina Jolie's kids is true.

If that's not a smack in the mouf of dick-stiffenign Jennifer Ansiton, then I don't know what is. But like I said yesterday, she's a beautiful woman that some man was obviously tired of fucking.

See beauty, money & power is a lethal combination for a woman, especially if she is still relatively young. Because if a man, who basically defines the woman's sexuality, decides to say "peace, bitch! I'm fucking someone else (all things being equal in this case)" it HAS to wreck havoc with the woman's esteem. Has to.

Aniston is basically equal to Jolie -- looks, fame, money, power (well, obviously not pussy power, but that's something only Pitt can answer), and she was thrown over. I wonder if she was sucking enough dick? There is always the rumor that married women slowly, but steadily and surely cut-off any kind of dick sucking as the marriage continues (true there are some exceptions, and in reality all women should take a cue from a former porn star Marilyn Chambers; she said in an interview that she and her husband made a deal: twice a week she sucks his dick, but for only 5 minutes -- if he cums, he cums. If he doesn't, she stops anyway. At least that way, a guy can get a quickie without all the other bullshit).

You know what? I don't know why I wrote this piece of gossipy tripe. Maybe I'll delete it next time I'm on line.

Eyes Without A Face


Bellucci Mistress
Originally uploaded by Phalanx.
Ever seen this French film? It's an oddball thriller/horror film from the 50s or 60s, about a mad scientist bent on trying to find a way to do a face transplant on his disfigured daughter. Sound familiar, it should cause strikingly similar events were announced today -- in France of all places.

It seems that a team of doctors surgically reconstructed a woman's face (her dog ripped the fuck out of this woman's mug, tore off her lips and cheek). The results won't fully be known until the wounds heal and this woman allows a "before and after" photo to be published.

What does this mean for plastic surgery? Will Hollywood starlets cut themselves to look like movie stars of the past (remember that storyline in James Ellroy's L.A. Confidential?)?

The future looks more and more like a bad sci-fi novel as we live it.

The Trouble With Girls

I was just looking at the DVD release of Mr. & Mrs. Smith, laughing at Angelina Jolie, but wondering why did Brad Pitt kick Jennifer Aniston to the curb -- have you SEEN her body? It's fucking tight, and by the I mean FUCKING tight.

Then I remembered what someone once told me, "show me the most beautiful girl you've seen, and I'll show you a guy who is tired of fucking her."

I guess that's it, isn't it?

Yet just look at Alley Baggett over there (yeah to the right!) I don't know when I'd get tired of fingering, facefucking, dogstyle fucking (and the rest of the straight in & out positions), sodomizing, and 69ing this girl. I ran into her one time about 5 year ago at the San Diego ComicCon (I didn't understand why she down there, doing a sign I guess), and she was even more captivating in person than any photo. Short, petite and sweet. Makes me wonder if she's a spinner or not?

I bet someone can tell the truth on that one.
