Disturbingly Entertaining...

   I've been on the outer edge of the inner fringe of "The Biz" almost my entire life. From age 12 to age 30 I was a (mostly) working musician. Since age 30, I've been a Personal Manager. I love my chosen field. It lets me use as many of my left and right brain functions as I can still tap into. (I've always said I like writing a good contract way better than writing a good song). I'm fortunate to represent a great group of creative maniacs, and proudly count myself in their number.

   In my "work", (and it's often hard to call it that), I've met, befriended, and been befriended by, more amazing folks than any 20 people should have in their lives. And gone to their shows, dinners, meetings, brisses/christenings, wakes, funerals, bar/bat mitzvahs, weddings, divorces, and on and on... I've never forgotten one thing I've heard. And one thing always leads to another. And I haven't forgotten those things, either. 

   I have opinions. Boy, do I have opinions. So this will be my sounding off point. My "Pride Rock" so to speak. The place from where I'll oversee my beloved, chosen field of play, the entertainment industry. 
Hollyweird. And occasionally ramble, rave, but mostly rant, about it.

   That's right, rant

   Buckle up...



 

An open letter to a sore loser...

Mrs. Clinton,
 
Ok, now go away.

At the beginning I couldn't have been a more avid supporter. With 2 daughters (and a son) I was practically drooling at the thought of such a groundbreaking run for, and win of, the presidency by someone I believed to be the most competent, able person on the scene. That you're a woman was just gravy...

BUT Mrs. Clinton, you blew it so many times in so many ways I can no longer even support you for VP, and I truly believe that you achieved the exact opposite of what you thought you were setting out to do. I believe you've now singlehandedly set the Women's Movement back a millenium, no mean feat.

You've proven yourself to be a truth-stretcher (if not an outright liar), and you and your husband (who until now has been my political idol) have proven to be just another pair of disgusting, filthy-fighting DC insiders who will stop at NOTHING to win what is not yours. Under fire in Bosnia? More people voted for you than anyone in primary history? It took the comic Sinbad (for God's sake) to blow the first lie, and your run in Michigan, in spite of an agreement NOT to run there, to validate the second. And those are just 2 of the myriad disgusting things you both have done, worst of which is the gender AND race baiting.  Jeeeezzzz.

The absolute final straw was what I consider to be the single most UNgracious, UNflattering, NONconcession speech you delivered last night. In the face of Mr. Obama's CLEAR win, you had one final chance to step up, and you clearly blew it.

GET SOME CLASS, MRS. CLINTON. Go back to carpetbagging in NY, and stay out of National politics. The country will be better served by your disappearance from the scene, and we will all enjoy the fruits of Mr. Obama's presidency far more without you being the big ugly worm in the apple.

A former supporter,

The Spielster

      Your disappointment is shared by my friends and I. We are the "Sex And The City" demographic who wanted nothing more than to see this woman win. But you're right...she blew it bigtime. I hope she takes your advice and does go away. We'll all be better off. We'll never get this stench out of the air, or bad taste out of our mouths, until she does. (And she has to take Bubba - as you rightly call him - with her...)
