Dirt McGirt

• I usually like awards shows, but the AMAs sucked ass. They were boring as hell. Even the newly-discovered Beatles video was boring. The only high point was an inebriated Anna Nicole Smith acting like her usual retarded self. Was anyone actually surprised she showed up shitfaced? In addition, Prince was nominated and lost. To Usher. Usher's cool, but he can't play the funk like Prince. Prince is actually going to make a movie with Usher next year. Ironic, ain't it?
  
• Tim Burton and Johnny Depp, the team that brought you "Edward Scissorhands" is now desecrating a classic movie, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. In my life, I've read the book a dozen times and watched the movie about a million times, and to tinker with a classic, that just sucks. Will Jar-Jar Binks be the leader of the Oompa-Loompas? Look at the picture of Johnny Depp, he looks like british queer. The filmmakers will probably quote the original, "We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams," and therefore can ruin whatever childhood memory they want.
  
• The Richs-Macys tree snapped. I had to laugh. The old people who grew the tree for the last 25 years, were heartbroken. I feel bad for them, but ummm its just a damn tree.
  
• The latest sweeps stunt: make your anchor take off all her clothes in public. I can only hope that Fred Powers doesn't get wind of this.
  
• Can we really live in a world without Ole Dirty Bastard?
