I was watching Bravo tonight and Kathy Griffin's stand-up routine was hysterical. She is SO on the money about fame and celebrity. Self-righteous Oprah for example- Kathy watches the show daily to be stunned and amazed at O going ghetto in 30 seconds or less then snapping back. "I ain't gonna be no slave now," O chides in a show where she returns to the 1600's as if her producers would ever suggest such a thing. Kathy has her own unique point of view, or does she?

Can you feel the sway in the breeze? In 2005 it seems as though everyone is just doing things their own way. It's hard to work around the rules that are jammed in our faces everyday. The people in charge aren't terribly trustworthy to the subordinates; the kids in the back seat are getting restless and tussling. The A-list celebs are a laughing stock now, Tom Cruise, Michael Jackson, the Beniffers, Brad and Jen's perfect marriage. We finally know them for the mere humans they have always been. Reality TV killed sitcoms. Anything in its flawed state is just more interesting. Perfection is the big lie and many are done playing the game.

I have always related to the outsiders. I love gay people and drug addicts who struggle one day at a time to recover. Let's face it, these are the dynamic people among us. It seems this decades halfway mark is about bucking the system and ripping the curtain back on that fake ass wizard (See the musical Wicked for more on that theme).

I don't know what its all going to mean in the end, but there is something brewing. The power of the flawed masses. No one is above it all and if you think you are then we will hold you up to the light and give you your own reality show or show your fat pictures.
