I WAS A PART OF HISTORY TODAY



I WAS A PART OF HISTORY TODAY

I sincerely did not want to write anything political on my blog, as this blog is really my online portfolio of writing and art.

HOWEVER, I feel that I CAN write about something that happened today, in which transcends politics.

I attended a historical event.

Indeed, in my humble opinion, I think this was a historical event FOR THE WORLD.

As a person of color born a second class citizen in the United States, I witnessed something today that really and truly culminates the very essence of what the United States is SUPPOSED to represent.

I witnessed 100, 000 people (fuck the OFFICIAL report, I was fucking there) gather together in St. Louis, Mo, a little over 100 feet from where the Dredd Scott case was tried.

100 feet , where the descendant of the circumstances of that very trial stood before 100,000 people.

Where this descendant runs a very good chance of becoming the leader of the most powerful country in the world.

A country whose basis is freedom for all, and opportunity for all.

A country that stands at the threshhold of electing a man of color, to the most powerful position of this country.

And the world.

The President of the United States.

I was there, and I saw all those people.

I was, as I am now writing this, moved to tears.

This man may not win the Presidency.

But I was there to see this man in the process of making history.

I saw St. Louis, Mo, the place where I was born, become a part of history.

And this day will be a day that will stay with me.

For the rest of my life.

MOVIE REVIEW: 'APPALOOSA"



MOVIE REVIEW:"APPALOOSA"
art and review by Phil Seahorn
Starring: Ed Harris, Robert Knott, Viggo Mortensen, Renee Zellweger, Timothy V. Murphy
Directed by: Ed Harris
Produced by: Michael London, Cotty Chubb, Toby Emmerich

Would someone please explain to me why Hollywood, which spends literally BILLIONS of dollars on CGI and special effects, can't make a fucking good movie with horses and cowboys?

I mean, how expensive is that today?

And, whose bright idea is it to greenlight projects for, AT BEST, "B" level actors?

That's the case with "Appaloosa", this supposedly "best western since "Unforgiven"(which came out almost 20 fucking years ago).

Oh wait, there was that "Yuma" movie that came out last year, which was touted at that time as the "best western since "Unforgiven".

Look, Hollywood considers making a western like motherfuckers making a silent movie, so the bias is quite obvious.

But don't make the shit, promote the shit AS "the shit",then rob movie goers in a already fucked up economy of their hard earned money.

This movie was simply a piece of shit.

The photography was bad, the sets looked just like fucking sets, the gun play was "shoot,fall down", and PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE, in this digital age of moviemaking, keep fucking Renee Zellweger off the fucking screen!!!

I'm sorry, but that bitch looks like she's taking a shit everytime they do closeups.

And BOY ,did they have a lot of closeups of this broad in this movie.

I came very, very close to walking out of this movie, and , well, this was just a piece of shit.
