As if G-Dub v:2.0 Were not Enough
Over the weekend I put on Comedy Central for some good quality background noise. I like having music or some sort of TV programming on when I'm writing and Comedy Central seemed more than suitable I guess.
Anyway, it happened that they're playing one of my all-time favorite comedies, "Wet Hot American Summer". This was both a good and bad turn of events because I love the movie so much that I am often compelled to watch every single minute of it when I know it is on, making it impossible for me to get any work done.
As one of my personal laugh-riot invoking scenes came on the set, I was appalled to see how badly the censors had edited, no, BUTCHERED the film. It made me tune off the film and I attempted to get more work done. Very sad. I had to settle for "Celebrity Poker" as background noise.
The scene that was completely edited out involved the entire cast going into town for supplies all to the tune of Rick Springfield's, "Love is Alright Tonight". In this classic movie montage spoof the cast goes from eating fast food to trying to buy beer at a convenience store to purchasing & shooting up heroin & cocaine at a crack house in a matter of three minutes. The topper is the return to camp featuring the line, "It is always good to get away from camp. Even for an hour."
Well, that scene was completely ripped out without a trace for the offensive drug references. Of course the scenes with gay marriage and two guys banging the hell out of each other in a supply closet (stuff that is extremely offensive now that we live in the bigoted, religious right, hate-mongering, Red United States) was all there. Very odd.
If this wasn't enough to frost my beans, it looks more and more like the Ron Jeremy Blog is a complete fake. I know, I know. If you can't trust America's most famous and rotund porn star, who can you trust?
I have no confirmed kill on this being a fake yet, but all the signs are there. There haven't been any updates in weeks. Many photos have been taken down, presumably to avoid law suits from the genuinely innocent people in the photos being portrayed as porn starlets. It just smells more like a hoax ever day. Ah well, it is still better than Lawrence's Ladies Blog. How sad is that?
Finally, the new issue of The Cheers is going to be delayed a short while. They're having some trouble with their databases and the new info has disappeared or something. When it is up there, look for a piece from me titled "Out of the Mouths of Babes". This is another story from my early days in da biz. Until then, feel free to head over to e-pauly.com & read my Kentucky story.
