The reason for a Royal family

BLM:75 WHM:75 SMN:60 RDM:20 THF:75 WAR:75 DRK:75 RNG:58

The real drawback in my life has been perhaps my lack of commitment to getting the one girl that I really want. Unlike most regular guys, I go to bars and hope to talk to someone good looking but it's rarely led me to get their telephone number or to become regular friends. My method of getting a girl is like basically telling all my friends that I like her and wait for her eyes to spark cuz she heard about it and then waiting for the chemistry to build up to where I can tell she will say yes if I ask her out. It takes a lot of patience and faith. Now that I am old however, I have decided to stop doing that. I am going to have a pin-up girl that I post to my wallpaper instead of having a real girl that I am "going after". This way my dream stays a dream and doesn't confuse me by possibly coming true. I have had several girls pinned up over the last couple of months and surprisingly, even a picture gets old.
I started the whole ritual with Beth Orton. I figured if I was gonna be gaga over a female musician she might as well be a professional. But after I started to actually look at the picture too long I decided to try a new one. Next I went to Bryce Dallas Howard. She lasted a long while on my wallpaper. She starred in The Village and inpressed me somewhat. Then I went to Keeley Hawes. She was very beautiful but also very married. Still I am fascinated by British people sometimes. In the back of my mind I know that logically they have to be more sophisticated simply because their government is older so that makes their people more proper I guess. Whenever I see Americans laughing at those fool British people with their royalty and their sirs, I kinda of feel like I'm laughing at rich people, which is backwards. The royal family is all about national pride. If people came over and shot Tom Cruise, we'd be like hahaha we don't like Tom. If they came over and shot Oprah, we'd be like hahaha we don't even like Oprah... at least some people I reckon. But here's where the royal family earns their income, because if you are going to go shooting the royals, you just hurt a symbol of national pride. I know we in America are all like pfft those royals can't hold a candle to Bill Gates or Ted Turner or "The Donald" but if those guys got shot we wouldn't blink an eye. We would be like dang millions of dollars and no security? I wonder at movie stars for that reason. How does a movie star get pulled over for DUI? It's the simplest thing to hire a chauffer or even a kid with a PSP to watch and sit in your car. How do these people not treat every function that they attend like an office meeting? I mean if you are selling being popular and want to stay that way, bring your good attitude and manners with you 24/7. Popular people don't stay that way by falling down in the bathroom, cursing out reporters or by having only one girlfriend that hates them. Mel Gibson this means you. In my mind if I had millions, there is NO WAY I would have a wife or anything, but at this age I almost feel like I have hit menopause.
I would hire an avatar and it would be his job to try to take my millions. He would have to pretend to be a girl or a friend or maybe a mechanic. His only job would be to run around all day and investigate the people I was scheduled to meet and present me with profiles on Oprah for example. Is she likely to fart during the break, is she going to take my hand and pet it onscreen, will she ask some out of the box crack question that makes me feel like Charlton Heston on the Bowling for Columbine show, which was really a horrible abuse of trust to let that guy in your house so he could blind side you, an old man, with criticism.
If you are going to invest in charity, like bunches of money, this money is better spent on prep for your interviews. I kind of like the idea of Samuel L. Jackson, of taking a bunch of money and investing in a personal comany that does his legwork. If I was movie star, I would go right up to UCLA or Stanford and straight up offer 3 younsters with some BFE degree a job to sit on their butts all day and crank out presentations on the various people that I am forced to deal with. Like a gang that gets paid, hah! Your little personal army of Cruise ships. I saw on one interview a guy sprinkle water on Tom Cruise during his interview. What is that? You think maybe someone would have said excuse me for relaying the obvious, bucko, but there is a guy right over there ready to dump a gallon of water on you for not that much money... to me it boggles the mind. But that's society today for you. Some people believe in manners and others are just like " in America we don't have manners". Nothing is more irritating to me onscreen than to see someone important get interrupted. There is no excuse for that. Every question asked should be answered pre-show, every possible sidestep should be anticipated, even the lighting and clothes should fall into place as an effort to make the interview positive and "short" if you will. The people watching should want it to go on even when it's over. There is a reason for our judicial system is so people don't get judged inappropriately, so both sides have access to evidence, so that the real reason for the crime can be brought to light and so people can decide if in light of the motive and other factors we should hold this person innocent of wrongdoing sometimes despite the law. Well an interview is the same thing. You are gonna get judged. If people are going to show up with funny pictures you didn't expect to see of yourself on the beach, or ask about your lovelife despite that having nothing to do with your next movie, or hit up your daughter for videos you didn't know existed, well what do you think? Is that just "good ol American journalism"? Is that "what makes this country great"? Well if so then you better get ready for more because the Colosseum is not some river in Egypt. I saw a recent interview with Harrison Ford and I have to say that was some of the best acting I have ever seen. It was obvious to me what course the comedy had taken but wow was he prepared. If he was actually off his rocker then I'm wrong but I was laughing like crazy at the turn of events during the show. I think I remember Jennifer Anniston doing a similar interview a while back but I forgot it now, but I remember thinking, oh that's right she's an actress, hah!
If I had millions I would have a secretary that basically set up personal dates for me and and would call their reps and just manage my personal life like a business. Still, romance is serious business. Everyone is eager to know what your story is most of the time and as evil as it sounds to me for a girl to want me for my money, the truth is owning a house is not so easy. Paying for a car and insurance is not so easy or cheap. Doing your income tax is not easy. So when a girl expects you to have a job and have a house, even though she is perfectly capable of buying her own, it makes sense for her to add in her mind as value, your ability to pay bills. In fact it makes even more sense if she has children. So even though Mel got ripped off by that million dollar box he used to walk around with, I still believe it's possible to find love if you're rich. Well, never mind I don't think so. There is love that you can't have and you quit, there is love that you get by trying really hard until you hit it... and then quit, and then there is love that you settle for cuz you've quit trying. That's real love. The love that was right there the whole time. The rest is too much or too little.
The real reason I was writing today was about Hillary Clinton. Boy did I get sidetracked. Face the Nation was like 2 hours ago and now I think I forgot the interview. I liked her though. It used to be so wrong to me to allow one family to be in the White House for more than 8 years like the Bushes did, but the way it has turned out seems like it was for the best in this case. I like seeing her do overseas work. I like the fact that it is Obama's people and not the Clinton's people that are running things but more than that I like hearing people hold up the President and be loyal to him. She sounded very well spoken during the interview and even though there was some interruption there (which really if it was some godawful flunky sitting there interupting the Secretary of State I would just flip in my chair), I felt the interview came across well and I felt like I would like to see the show next time as well as hear more from Hillary. Heh, feels kinda disrespectful to call her that but really in today's lmao, the rock, oprah, omg world, it's probably better for her popularity if they use the one word name Hillary to make her seem more in touch with today's younger generation etc. On the other hand I was gettin kinda of tired of calling that guy the Rock. It's funny but even though I don't want her to be President, the fact that her husband was President makes me want to keep them up there somewhere, along with the Bushes. I don't want them in charge... but it makes sense to me to allow them to continue on as consultants in some form or another.
Two hours ago I had something oh yeah, the after talk editorial. After the interview the host gave a little speech about why do the British have royalty? I am going to try to give you good reasons for having royalty.
1 JFK Jr
Yeah it doesnt seem like people out there are willing to kidnap people of national importance but yeah it sure did come out in a recent show about "the Godmother" that she had plans to kidnap the young heir to our presidential throne. Sadly, he is gone but you ARE going to need someone genuine, and not an actor, that feels his life was built for the purpose of keeping our national sense of morality intact. In Britain they still have someone like that, we don't.
2 BIll Gates
Well there are in fact many Bill Gates out there, but Bill is likable so I will just use his name for this purpose even though I don't mean him directly. People with 100s of millions of dollars have a lot of bribe money. Yeah you get get me? And if there is no family out there that is "above" being bribed then basically you have no idea who the good guys are.
3 Mexico
Mexico is in bad need of royalty. I don't know if that is all that goes on down there is people in cars with guns and corrupt cops that ask for bribes, but that's what it sounds like when you hear that children are in charge of cutting rival groups heads off. I mean I don't mind chopping the head off some cock for breakfast mind you, cuz that's food, but if there is noone "above" accepting bribes, and there are 100s of millions of dollars floating around in one person's bank account, and there are people and corrupt cops running around with guns and money for milk and bread and that's it, then you don't have a government, you have a dictator.
rooster head + chop = hot wings; people head + chop = cannibals
4 Uncle Sam
We haven't had a symbol of national pride in a while. Sorry Dallas Cowboys but being America's team doesn't cut it. And since Uncle Sam is outdated, royalty is what allows a populace to wonder at greatness and believe that some people are not just squeezing other people's complacency to win, but that some people were born to win. Obviously, the good person has to marry perhaps not so good a person to stay interested, so God knows what this girl is going to be like. Like Diana, common people without the right upbringing, are often not up to the task of suffering for the greater good, of giving up their freedom so that others can be inspired, of having people abuse you without the right of retaliation, but that is what it means to be noble and most especially royal. I only hope that this girl is. And by noble, I don't mean weak.

PS. My latest girl is Michelle Forbes, I wonder why I like "butchy" girls sometimes but meh I will let you wonder and decide why.
