Corey Haim : The Day the Music Died
I woke up this morning startled and confused to find that I had missed my first two appointments at the gym. Playing on the radio was Don Maclean's immortal tribute to the immortal Buddy Holly after his untimely and very mortal death. Did I set the alarm for the wrong time? No. Was the volume too low? No. It was higher than usual actually. So why didn't I wake up on time? I thought it didn't matter so I rushed to get ready and get to work. I was sprinting down court street when a front page news headline caught my eye, jerked my head around and pulled me off my feet throwing me flat down on my chest. I crawled my way over to the newstand panting. It was true. Corey Haim was dead. Suddenly my late wake-up made sense. The universe, waking me with American Pie, was telling me as subtly as possible that the immortal Corey Haim of 'Lost Boys' fame had finally, completely and irreversibly, died. I would just as soon have not woken up today. Because, from that moment on, nothing has made sense. The rest of the day is pretty much a blur. Right now, I am just struggling to stay on my feet, to eat (and keep it down), to perform the daily tasks that seemed so easy in a Pre-Corey-Haim's-Death world. Corey Haim is dead. The words seem strangely meaningless in that their implications are unfathomable like 'The Sun imploded today". So....no more light?? No more warmth??? No more Life. Cory Haim is dead. Don't bother drivin' your Chevy down to that ol' levy Mrs.Cunningham. The levy is dry and Corey Haim is dead. Them good ol' boys are down at the mill tyin' one on. One last honest drunk before hangin' up their boots 'til kingdom come. And Corey Haim...is dead. Goodbye Miss American Pie. Goodbye Corey Haim. Goodbye Sweet Prince.

The Book of Man: A Reading on Weddings
The Book of Man
V.3 - Ch.2 - Verse -17 - Line 42
"At his wedding* ceremony, a Real Man walks UP the aisle sternly and TAKES his woman from her father."
Sermon
When Napoleon became ruler of France the custom was for the pope or cardinal whatever to place the crown on the new king's head. Translation: It's mine, I can give it to you and I can take it away. Instead, Napoleon took the crown from the pope and placed it on his own head. In doing so Napoleon emasculated the pope in front of everyone and took all the power for himself. You must do the same at your wedding or everyone will think you're a pussy. And they'll be right.
You're Welcome.
*The Book of Man does not, in general, condone marriage. But there are exceptions.

A Reading From the Book of Man
How To Be A Real Man** (V. 6 Ch. 18 Verse 82 Line 307)
"Real men drink breast milk."
"Real men drink breast milk."
Sermon***
What are you a pussy?! Women produce a life sustaining substance from their tits. Drink it!
You're welcome.
**How to be a Real Man is an epic and surprisingly lucid stream of consciousness dictated by a vagrant wastrail or 'homeless n'er-do-well' who followed me around high school insisting that he was my father and that it was necessary for him to A:Live with me and B: Follow me around high school to make sure I didn't grow up to be a pussy. It is an encyclopedia of testosterone fueled wisdom. Impossible to fully understand on your own, How To Be A Real Man must be accompanied by a Real Man to explain its' many rules and parables to you...especially if you're a pussy. It's kind of like how a priest explains you the bible and you put your money in baskets to shelter and feed him. Except in that case, you're still a pussy.
***Sermons are explanations of the rules/parables found in 'How To Be A Real Man'. Sermons are usually yelled, they usually begin with the rhetorical question: "What are you a pussy?", and are ALWAYS punctuated with a slap to the back of the head.

CONVENTIONAL WISDOM
When we're young we begin to speak by mimicking the words we hear our parents say (Our first word: Bastard). This is not truly speaking. By the time we reach maturity we express thoughts and opinions on the world around us by repeating the thoughts and opinions expressed by others. This is not truly thinking. Today I bought coffee at a small cafe' in CobbleHill, Brooklyn. Being an independent cafe', and being located in CobbleHill, Brooklyn, it was naturally filled with very self satisfied (White) people feeling and thinking deep feelings (deep in their bowels) and thoughts brought on by caffeine highs. On my way out I heard this blessed little piece of wisdom - "Everything I need to know about life I learned in Kindergarten." - followed by this equally blessed little piece of agreement - "That's so true." (It's possible that both of those women spend their days napping, crying and eating glue.) My first reaction was to remember a lesson I learned in Kindergarten about sharing. My classmates and I learned about the very first Thanksgiving. We were taught that Pilgrims and Indians were the best of friends and the tradition of thanksgiving was first practiced as a sort of get-to-know-your-neighbor community dinner celebrating diversity and sharing food, and traditions. I've never heard a Pilgrim or an Indian deny this. Actually I don't think I've ever seen an American Indian in person. (Maybe...). Come to think of it, we never did learn where those little red rascals got off to. Maybe a farm somewhere where they have lots of room to run and play and exist. I guess we did learn a lot in Kindergarten.
Maybe what the first women meant to say was "I haven't learned anything about life since Kindergarten." That's possible. But, it's too late. I'd bet my life (Oh Foxwoods! That's where we've seen one!!) the second girl repeated that thought at least a hundred times before the day ended (Probably blogged it, twittered it and put it as her facebook status too). It's out there now and we're stuck with it like a recurring cold sore. (Hey, there's a lesson we've learned since Kindergarten.) ...Shut it.

Today's Top Headlines
Today is Saturday, January 30th, 2010. Your name is Pete, you've taken a powerful hallucinogenic. Nothing you see is real. Stay calm.
Today's top stories. CNN Headlines to stories I didn't read.
1. Gay dating advertisement sacked by CBS. Really CNN? Sacked? Why didn't you just say "Gay dating advertisement sucked off CBS schedule in political reach around.".
2. Police: 743 lbs of Pot in septic tank. Pete: 1 fluid oz of Jizz in my pants.
3. Pics of drinking Aid Doctors (in Haiti) cause uproar. After finishing their uproar, protestors got in their cars , turned on the heat, plugged in their ipods and drove home. Once home they had a light snack (even though they promised themselves they wouldn't eat after 8pm anymore, but hey they earned it today.) watched Jersey Shore in HD on DVR and finally retired to their beds comfortable and safe. Their last thought before drifting off into a dreamless slumber; "Thank God I'm not in Haiti.'
Speaking of Jersey Shore, in Entertainment news:
4. Snooki disses Springer. Which reminds me of the time I watched my dog eat his own throwup.
And That's everything that happened so far today.

About Me:
When I was young I saved the life of a leprechaun. In return he awarded me three four-leaf-clovers which were each good for one wish. I couldn't believe it. Three wishes! I could have, do, or be ANYTHING I wanted! With this unlimited potential I felt great about everything, so I went out to play basketball. That was ten years ago and I still haven't used one. Probably because I'm afraid I'll wish for the wrong thing. I also just don't wanna run out of wishes ya know? Although come to think of it they've probably expired or died by now. And, who knows if they ever would have worked anyway. Fuck it, I'll just throw 'em out.

Who The Fuck Said THAT??
Can you tell which quote is from christian broadcasting network host pat robertson and which is from delusional Crackhead 'Joey' who preaches/lives in the Port Authority men's room? Answers at bottom, Good Luck!
1. "[Homosexuals] want to come into churches and disrupt church services and throw blood all around and try to give people AIDS and spit in the face of ministers."
2. " You just voted God out of your city."
3. "And they (haitians) got together and swore a pact to the devil. They said, 'We will serve you if you will get us free from the French.' True story. And so, the devil said, 'OK, it's a deal.
Answers:1. pat robertson 2. pat robertson 3. Both pat robertson and the Crackhead preaching in the Port Authority men's room.
Disclaimer*** Joey is a fictional character. Port Authority crackheads may say crazy things but they generally don't have a TV show, an audience, or U.S. government officials in their pocket. Unfortunately, TV Evangelical Christians like Pat Robertson do.
