Awww, isn’t Brad Mr. Nice Guy? (Except when he’s dumping his wife and playing sociopaths)
That God’s gift to the camera Brad Pitt has been spotted frolicking in public all over the globe during the last three weeks. He’s visited New Orleans to promote his "green" project, touted solar and other non-electrical power on NBC’s Today Show; appeared at Chicago’s Field Museum with some stick figure and a few wee ones in tow; went carriage-riding in Central Park with Zahara; then a baseball game with ‘Mad’ I, first adopted son Maddox, and ‘Mad II,’ otherwise known as Mr. Spike Lee, filmmaker.
I should be grateful to see the snaps of Your Handsome. But for some reason I’m getting cranky. Hmmm, let me thing about this for a minute. Is there a reason Mr. Brad wants us all to think of him as Mr. Nice Guy? Could it be because he wants us all to run out and see his new movie "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford."? I’m sure Braddie Boy hopes that his good deeds land a bigger box office than Saint Angelina’s did with her performance in "A Mighty Heart." Try as the media did to get viewers out to pay homage to one of their own, the movie grossed $4 million in its opening weekend. And nary a nasty word from the media big boys. It pays to be pretty and well connected and to earn those boys money when they post your picture!
On another entirely different note, seems Senator Larry Craig (and not the Larry alleged to have done nasty deeds with former media pariah of the moment, Howard Stern of Anna Nicole fame) is rumored to be considering fighting the allegation that he solicited an undercover cop for sex in a Minnesota airport. Yes, yes, yes. I want to see this happen: His career is over no matter what. But just think of what he’ll do to quash such arrests in the future. I want to hear testimony from the "experts" that playing footsie and waving underneath a toilet stall is indisputable evidence of solicitation for sex. I want this example of lawlessness to go to a jury trial, and I want to hear some jury foreman say, "Yes, a wave underneath the john is evidence of a crime." I think Mr. Craig might be on to something as he solicits opinion by releasing his trial balloon on an abrupt change of hear to quit the Senate. Do us all a favor, Senator, will you? Now that you’re out of the closet, or at least out of the stall, please follow Arlen Spector’s advice. (God love this Republican. And why is he a Republican? Doesn’t he know there is no such thing any longer as a moderate Republican?" )
