Trash day…normally is Wednesday in our neighborhood. Apparently though not on MSN. Good Morning. I am sure you have seen video footage of Eliot Spitzer’s little reason for resigning. The numerous pictures and interviews and comments from all over and back and no doubt heard his replacements accusations of his wild past and perhaps present too. Today or perhaps this week the little reason Eliot left office decided to bring suit to founder of the “GIRLS GONE WILD” Video and Adult site owner Joe Francis. Apparently Ms. Ashley Alexandra Dupre claims she was under age when she signed a waver while drunk at 17 in Miami for her video release. Hmmm wait while I get my violin tuned up here… Ok, all tuned up… Ms. Dupre feels her age of 17 constitutes not beling legally old enough to sign a binding contract. I think Ms. Dupre should get all that is coming to her. I mean, she was no doubt part of the main reason Mr. Spitzer resigned and was ok with her actions in that predicament. I just cringe when I see people do these things… First off use their age for an excuse, regardless of what age… if you knew the difference between right and wrong… you play you pay. Secondly play the card everyone refers to the race card…that card has been used far too long and it is expired! Thirdly claim they we drunk and could not help themselves…Hmmm ah yes…who has used the phrase that pays… I was too drunk to remember what happened…Come on.. that is lamer then the lamest claim to fame…Fourthly said I can do it because I am a girl / boy /old / young / not the right ethnic group / they are not looking for me because…. Because you are lazy you mean! I just hate it when I hear people are discriminated due to this that and what ever…Come on, that record is scratched! Oh here is another one… They were raised with a golden spoon, or he / she has a golden horseshoe hanging out their backside…Excuses, excuses, excuses! Please…You want something? You know hoe to get it? Work at it… that is all there is too it…Do you think Tiger Woods became the best golfer in the world due to his skin color? Nope! Due to his father’s money? Nope! Hey we could go on forever here… let’s just cut to the case, he wanted to and would not take anything less… Am I a Tiger Woods Fan? Not in one Iota. I admire him yes, but my fav golfer was Tom Watson. Do I believe some people have better chances at jobs, hell yes I do. Do I feel there is racial reasons for housing, loans, jobs, sports… hell yes…but I know if one works at getting what they want, and don’t at least they can say they tried. Do not pay for a ticket on the pity train of life to me…I do not mean to be harsh but here is the cold hard facts…we all eat, sleep, drink, and work together. We are all brothers and sisters in a world of hate and discontent because we all feel there are the haves, and have nots…Those that have do not pull out any decimatory cards of any means… so why do the have nots? Because it is owed to them…I could preach on this until blue, but if you do not have faith in yourself to go out and get it… then no power… no higher being… no amount of money or there lack of will change your will power to achieve your goal.
And… here I thought I had nothing to write about today… Thank You Ms. Dupre you made my day. I truly hope you get what is coming to you…
A huge hug and many pats
Marty
