I FINALLY FINNALLY FINNALLY FINISHED READING MAX BARRY‘S COMPANY
I have to say it kicked ass as expected and will def make a great movie (yes the movie rights were sold even before the book came out). The last like 40 pages were the best. I actually bought the book the first day it came out as I am a big fan of Max’ work and I almost want to apologize to him that it took me this long to actually pick up, read, and finish. I have a hard enough time listening to the 4 hours of the Stern show that Howard pumps out every weekday -but this read def. came at a right time! –if you have one of those ‘cube’ jobs it really resonates with you. This is the part where I would inject a witty call-back to the book but I don’t do spoilers -but I will say the cover should have been scratch and sniff -and came with a coupon to dunkin’ donuts (they must not have stores in Australia -where Max hails from). Again I have a shit load of witty comments to say but I am not in the mood to type a loud spoiler warning before them lol . . . okay let me just say this -which is a wu-tang reference that I am sure Max wouldn’t understand (but it is from the Wu-Tang Forever cd)…
I will dedicate it to Eve (a char in the book).
She flew in like calm breeze
Tall brown skin her weave like palm trees
I went coconuts
Dipped my Dunkin’ between your Donut
Don’t want it if it ain’t no slut, bitch!
Fathership touch ground, like fly on soup
Don’t invite me I tear the fuck down
White boys cut my toupee!
Seventh day rester, or scream play
I slump MC slay, it ain’t nuttin to bust ass
Bullet him, get him fast
Bitch I don’t break out, blast to the next rash
The dog piss on MC’s like trees
Got meals but still grill that old good welfare cheese
What more can I say cept go pick up the book –it has my stamp of shab00typroval–
p.s.
I caught Breaking Bonaduce Season 2 finally (I missed episode one as tonight was episode 2) and something about it is irking me —but there could be many reasons but here are the top 3 that I am irked by it but will still probably watch it lol.
1) The Director - Mark Jacobs— I am sure he’s a great guy but meh not so much at least to lil ole me –I been trying to interview this guy for the blog forever to where I gave up –he flaked out on me many times –(I guess Danny went crazy many times during the filming of season 2 so that’s why MJ had to flake out) but I don’t really appreciate that shit esp. being the lil man. . .and this brings me to #2 sort of - - -during the time I was trying to nail down the interview me and my gf of the time weren’t having the most constructive of times together –i.e. I think I flaked out on her once to be home for the interview w/ MJ –in which he proceeded to flake out on me on. . .point #2:
2) I loved season 1—the breaking bonaduce show glorifies insane behavior and fucked up relationships maybe thats why me and my gf (now ex- figure that one out) loved watching it together–maybe there were underlying parallels between danny and gretchen’s relationship and ours– so my point is this - fuck a show that reminds me of that …what’s the word, snatch?
3) Point three- dealing with the actual show content- -it just seems like season 1 rehashed –they are still in the same predicament already– same shit different day –fuc-ked up marraige can’t get along yadda yadda jacked up looking shrink who can’t do anything for them but makes for good tv— I am just hoping the season2 heats up. . .
4) despite all of this I will still watch it –it’s a decent show– and I can’t stand every white girl I know clamoring over Flavor of Love –shows like that are cool until they hit the tipping point of ‘white trend-whore girl’ fandom/fanfair. . .
yawn -so the bottom line what is there to say?
People I am jealous of: Max Barry -for his writing and story telling abilities
Mark Jacobs -this guy not only directs the baking of his own cake, but he eats it too– and he won’t even leme get a little morsel.
and lastly who else am I jealous of. . .
My ex -for a lack of foresight, conscious, and being tethered in life to an ignorant bliss…
(wait -lacking foresight isn’t something to be jealous of…)
~CAN I GET A LITTLE MORSEL?
AND A ROPE TO THE HOT AIR BALLOON OF SUCCESS –THAT ISN’T FILLED WITH “HOT AIR”. . .
