Finally, it has began to warm here in the sunless Sunflower state. There was a little blue sky yesterday and not quite as frickin' cold. Today's promise is a high of 29 degrees with hopes for a weekend in the upper 30's and maybe even the 40's. That's REALITY, Kansas style...lol
Reality, like poverty, is a relative term. Each of these word choices have multiple meanings. Take poverty for example, what may be poor in say Johnson County Kansas may be middle class in Clay County Missouri. I survive on a mid-five range income in the ghetto of the county of Johnson where I could be living the high life in Roosterville over in Missouri.
I'm not here today to discuss that bulllssshhhiiittt! It's all the hype surrounding Simon leaving Idol. Granted, I think the man is dead-on in most circumstances. But, then again, who am I to judge...he's making the millions. It'll still be one of the few TV shows I enjoy watching.
Mentioning TV reality shows, my ninety seconds of fame are coming up. I'm scheduled to audition for America's Got Talent at the end of January. I have had my reality check-up. I have no expectations of winning, but, what the hell. Why shouldn't I audition? My thinking here is simple: if those folks think they have talent, then I KNOW I have talent. The world just doesn't know yet.
As a child, my dream was to either be a funnyman on the TV or President of the United States, whichever was funnier. Obviously, I an not the President and my chance to be on TV is rapidly approaching. The reality of it all is that I am doing it to fulfill my 'dream'. I don't have a voice like Susan Boyle. I don't have any magic up my sleeve and I can't make dummies talk. Hell, I'm probably the dummy.
Anyway, wish me luck. When I know more and can share, I will. Until then, thanks to everyone who supports me in my self-indulgence. Your friendship is priceless. kG
