It's our insatiable appetite for entertainment. We put our heroes so high on a pedestal they are smothered by the attention. And then we proceed to tear them down bit by heart rendering bit. Oh yeah, we are responsible alright, along with the handlers and managers.

I'm in total agreement with you DB.You are wise beyond your years:smile:

Absolutely, but perhaps knowledge about Unions isn't his forte. (hope I'm not getting off topic)

When I was young I was very proficient at playing two instruments- the radio and the record player.

During one of our strikes, welfare recipients were forced to cross our lines to work our jobs. My local never did anything to them as they were not doing so willingly. My son in law was one of them. I hold no grudges.

When you go shopping do you not patronize the place that provides the article at the lowest cost? Why should it be any different when shopping for labour?

That of course is the very insturment of the destruction of the economy. Those lower wages are attractive but in the end cripples the consummers ability to spend. Low cost also promotes low quality. Low quality promotes shopping arround for higher quality which costs you additional customers. There's the capitalist suicide cycle.

The entertainment industry is far too tainted. So tainted that it's not entertaining anymore.

I'd rather be bored and scratch my taint than watch TV or listen to commercial radio.

Walter Ostanek has 3 Grammys and 21 nominations but will his death be as big of a circus? Hell Yankovic has oodles compared to any other flash in the pan yet nobody cried.

Yeah, but he didn't dangle his baby over a balcony railing.

There have been some who've polkaed their asses off. Now there is a generation of assless people who have to pull their pants up to their arm pits and strap over their breasts for something to hold their belts up.

Bald ... as in residue from the pyrotechnics foul/up? I read a report that said he had severe damage to the scalp when his hair burned off....
