Watching E! is Rarely a Good Vocation

Bah. Maybe. Maybe not. Can't say it's productive or anything.

I watched a True Hollywood Story on Heath Ledger this evening. When they got to the end and folks were doing the sentimental thing, reflecting and commenting on his life and death (as is par for E! True Hollywood Story,) I had a strange feeling.

25% of it is just because they edit the show to manipulate the viewer and create the impression, I admit.

I felt like I knew they guy. Craziest thing.

I have a good idea where the feeling comes from; I think I understand who he was, what he was trying to do, and how he felt. It all seemed very familiar. I think he and I would've found a lot of common ground if we had a chance to talk.

I know that's bizarre, but so are many things in the world. Some people juggle geese.
