Lileks' Life Lesson
The world's greatest living observationist,
James Lileks, is, among other things, author of
The Bleat, a Monday thru Friday web journal. Most online journals and blogs--mine included--are somewhat predictable in terms of content. Not so with The Bleat. Lileks may feel like contemplating politics, Target's air freshener inventory, his toddler daughter's latest hijinx or the weird life of horny Hogan's Heroes star Bob Crane.
After watching
Auto Focus, a movie biography of Crane, Lileks offers the moral of the story:
When your TV show has been canceled, you’re doing dinner theater, your wife is about to leave you and you find yourself in the basement watching grainy B&W pornos while wanking with your best friend, and he looks just like Willem Dafoe, something’s not right in your life. Check the map. You may have taken a wrong turn back at the intersection of Groin and Life.
Good point! To learn other life lessons, read the rest of
today's Bleat.
