A Tribute to Paul Raymond, Porn Baron

I must say Porn Baron is a great title. Do you suppose there is a ranking system? Porn Lord? Porn King? Porn Emperor? I heard Brian, one of my house mates, is a Porn Squire, recently upgraded from Porn Serf. Anyway,Paul Raymond was worth 1.3 Billion dollars. The Brit knew his audience with such titles as "Yes, We Have No Pyjamas." He died at age 82 and one of the most wealthy British citizens.

Anyway, here is my soundtrack for the average day.
1. Any Other Beauty from American Beauty Soundtrack- Chris wakes up and gets ready.
2. Clocks (String Quartet Instrumental cover of the Coldplay song)- Chris' tedious and repetitive trip to work.
3. Everybody Wants to Rule the World by Tears for Fears- Chris starting the day of work
4. Company in My Back by Wilco- Chris going through meetings in the morning
5. I Need More Allowance by the Beets (Yeah from the Doug cartoon)-Chris realizing that he doesn't get paid enough
6. Believe (Moon version) by the Bravery- Chris losing faith in Democracy
7. Easy Way Out by the Pink Spiders- Chris' co workers thinking that he might be insane
8. Apply Some Pressure by Maximo Park- Chris takes risks and probably fails but hey its worth it
9. Driving in Geneva by Alexandre Desplat from the movie Syriana- Going through the motions
10. Hook Theme Song- Chris in afternoon meeting but in his happy imaginary place actually.
11. You're so Cool from the movie True Romance- Chris is goofing around Gchat and other jokes at work when he's not supposed to.
12. End Credits from Cider House Rules- The day dies down
13. Take the Long Way Home by Supertramp- Chris trying to leave work and taking forever to do so.
14. Touch of Grey by the Grateful Dead- Everything is going to be alright
15. Sound of Settling by Death Cab for Cutie- Relaxing at home
16. Mad World by Gary Jules- Turning on the news and getting ready for bed.

That's my framework for a boring day and a soundtrack

1. Well Hillary pulling out some victories was surprising. She campaigned at those soccer moms scaring them into submission. I don't hate Hillary Clinton, I hate her tactics. I do hate Ohio. They really did just vote for NAFTA woman. She says she's against it but it was listed as one of Bill Clinton's achievements and apparently Hillary was actually president during those years. Impressive victories but the math is against her. She didn't get overwhelming victories. She needs to pull out 70% wins in the next few weeks. Its going to be a rough ride.

2. Remember when Edwards had his own anti Christian friends/employees? The uproar and all that fun? Well John McCain has a pastor who follows him around and introduces him to people and such and he thinks Catholicism is a whore of a cult....Where's the outrage? Oh wait, do you mean that right wing rage is fake? John McCain supporters don't seem phased by it. I guess they think Catholicism is a whore of a cult too because there has been zero resistance. I mean if we use the logic that was used with the Edwards incident that's how it works.

3. Holy nobody puts baby in the corner (yes that is a quote for dirty dancing, those who doubt it are morons and should look it up) Its rumored that Patrick Swayze has pancreatic cancer and only weeks to live. Doctors have told him to be ready...That's crazy sad and I think he'd be the second cast member of Dirty Dancing to suffer cancer (Jerry Orbach being the first I think).

4. Glen Beck honestly asked if Obama could be the anti-Christ. Can someone please tell me how is this man qualified to be commenting on politics on CNN?

5. I hate independents who feel the need to comment on politics and act a certain way i.e. conservatives who don't want to be Republicans because it might look bad so they became "independents." They take all the forms of a Republican or Democratic person but divert maybe on one issue. This whole notion that Joe Lieberman has made independents a good thing is an awful notion. Independents want all the positives of being part of a party but none of the negatives. Have your cake and eat it too. I'm aiming this mostly at the independents who are conservative and agree with Republicans on most things but won't join up because they would have to account for President Bush. So people like Bill O'Reilly, Glen Beck, and all these "independent" voters that keep getting interviewed piss me off.

6. Okay now that I've let that out. Joan Cusack is going to play Isla Fischer's mom in Confessions of a Shopaholic. I mean wow, that's kinda weird that I remember when Joan Cusack was playing people's daughter. But hey I don't think John Cusack is in this movie so take what part you can.

7. So I'll admit I don't get certain brands some times. Like take Louis Vuitton, Scarlet Johannson was the previous spokesperson. Makes sense right. She's sex icon and all. Not as good as Natalie Portman but what are you going to do. Anyway, you know who is replacing her? Keith Richards! Want to look like a burnt burnt burnt rock star?

8. Apparently In Touch magazine is asking of Britney Spears was raped at some point...I'm not sure if this is an honest question or not. I mean is this hey this woman is completely insane this probably happened?

9. I bought video baseball for my PS3. Can you tell I'm excited for baseball? Cubs domination incoming!

10. 10,000 BC comes out this week. I have very little faith in a Roland Emmerich movie where New York isn't destroyed. So they should just put New York there in 10,000 BC so that saber tooth tigers can destroy it
