private talk versus public talk: there is a difference:

 

One of the aspects I hope to clear up is not judging people by what they have said in private the most famous example: the President Trump Access Hollywood tape where he made an off-color joke about what women will allow a famous person to get away with that a non-famous person could not.   Now it is gross to say that but in context it was a joke.   I really do not think anyone’s character can be judged by private talk.   There is no one alive that has not said something that if it was recorded and broadcasted to the rest of the world  that could not be made to look like a bad person.   One of the points of private talk is to vent is to say gross things and silly things.   To get back to my example: would Donald Trump have made those comments if he knew he was being recorded?   Of course not!   There is a big difference between what people say privately versus what they say publicly it is immaturity to judge people by what they say privately.   If we do that everyone is guilty because no one has not said something that could not potentially make them look like a bad person that person does not exist.   As a society we are in huge trouble if we are judging people by what they have said privately.   Maybe judge a  person’s character  not by what they say in private but by their actions.   

just be respectful

 

I think this is an important distinction or example: when Christine Jarrett the mother of Jerry and grandmother of Jeff Jarrett was the ticket holder for Memphis rassin in the 1950s she wanted people to respect professional wrestling because she was respectful of their business.   That the television stations may not like professional wrestling but she wanted them to be respectful of it.   Fans may say I do not like the style of Memphis rastlin but again that is not the point to suggest like Dave Meltzer that Memphis was not a hot territory is foolish.   Look at those huge houses that were drawn inside the Mid-South Coliseum every Monday night it was a hot territory it was even hot in the 1950s when Christine Jarrett was a ticket taker.   Again that is not the point it is not about liking the style of Memphis rastlin it is about acknowledging their success.   Memphis rastlin brought many of those fans in Memphis together it was a great pastime for them.   There were elements of Memphis rastlin that I did not like but others I did.   I certainly prefer the Memphis rastlin philosophy over the WWE’s philosophy and many of the fans today known as smart marks or “smarts”.   One of the things Christine Jarrett did there was a newscast about the Memphis territory that was downplaying the success of it that it was obviously “fake and made halfway fun of the fans.   This is the absolute best part a year or two later the same news crew knocked on the door at the building and   Christine told them you are not welcomed here please turn around and leave.   They were astonished that she did not want them in her building because they were like but we are going to give you publicity and she said the last time you were here you did a story on the 6:00 o’clock news that my business was phony that the people who paid were not the best kind of people and you’re not welcomed here please turn around and leave.   She also said look at all the fans in my building why do we need your kind of publicity? That is what I wish would happen today.   The point is Christine Jarrett wanted everyone to just be respectful of her business.   Side Note: the Memphis territory did not just reach Memphis but different parts around Tennessee and Kentucky.   

For what it is worth only

 

I am glad that Galloways and Anderson returned this past Monday night to the WWE and rejoining AJ Styles I have always thought that the WWE is the best system for both Galloways and Anderson.   Not that they were not successful in AEW or Impact Wrestling as “The Good Brothers” but I just believe they are a best fit for the WWE mechiche.   If there are musicans and bands that I like I will try to write about them wheather they are well known or not that does not matter to me.   The only thing that matters to me is wheather I like them or not.   I have written about:  Aerosmith the Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin I feel as if I am doing my own Eddie Trunk impression.   I greatly respect Eddie for keeping and preserving hard rock and heavy metal or music in general that he loves alive.      That is what I have tried to accomplish this music is a go to for  me when I need comfort or an escape.   Which is definitely a need especially with the craziness and unknowiness these past 2 years.   Hobbies are not a bad thing they are a need in troubling times but God is ultimately in control even though so much of what happens in life makes no sense to me.   But it is not for us to know.   I also have admiration for Lynn Hoffman who was a VJ on VH1 Classic and Private Sessions on A and E I am a huge fan.   So whatever I can do to preserve music that I love I will do my best to let those who are interested in the music that I love.   I would still like to send my best to insane pitchman and former TNA/Impact Wrestling announcer Don West I am really still hoping the absolute best for you I respect both your passion for whatever you were selling or your passion for professional wrestling most importantly I can sense your kindness.  

A different way

 

In section #5 of this project I miss spelled the name Lzzy Hale several times now I realize most readers would never notice this but it kept bothering me so I hope that I cleared up that error.   I realize by watching old clips on Youtube of the game shows on MTV for example: Singled Out hosted by Chris Hardwick and Carmen Electra and the beach house during the summers those contestants were very easy going in other words they were having fun  and not worring about offending or upsetting anyone they were just having fun and enjoying the experience my question: is what happened?   Is the reason because of the internet and more specifically social media I just wish we could get back to that in some way because when I think about that it was not that long ago.   I remember a little of that on MTV Total Request LIVE/TRL but I just wish people could just enjoy the moments like they used or seem to do.   Side Note:  It is interesting for me to note: that in Chris Hardwick's book The Nerdist Way: how to get to the next level in your real life that the main reason Chris got the hosting gig for Singled Out that he got it because he was one of the few who auditioned he also was an MTV VJ for a Summer.   I loved that Raven was inducted into the Impact Wrestling Hall of Fame this past Friday October 7^th 2022 before Bound for Glory.   I have always believed that Raven was and is extremely underrated so I am glad that Raven has finally gained some recognition because he was always revolutionary and a head of his time.   I also got a kick out of that my favorite professional wrestler of all time Tommy Dreamer inducted Raven and after the speech Raven gave Tommy an Even Flow DDT.   I have to admit that when I heard Tommy was inducting Raven into the Impact Hall of Fame I was surprised because of their long-time rivalry.   I also liked that Kaz exercised Option C this past Thursday night on Impact on AXSTV giving up his X-Division title for a chance at the Impact World Champion Josh Alexander.   I have never been a fan of Bully Ray who unfortunaly returned at Bound for Glory  this past Friday night also who won the “Call your Shot trophy that he can use anytime he choices.   I have never liked Team 3D ether.   I have been wondering why the business of professional wrestling still exist.   As a fan of this art-form pastime and form of entertainment it is diffcult for me to come to that realization.   For example: when Dave Brown started in the business in the 1960s it was Kayfabe in his words meaning it was protected in some way.   Many fans will say I hate Memphis rastlin but that is not the point there were aspects of Memphis rastlin that I wish would return because if the protomers and talent are not trying to make fans belive the product in some way I do not understand the purpose in doing this.   I read a comment on Youtube that said that these  "Kayfabe" WWF magazines would never work today because wrestling is not treated as a normal form of entertainment I do not understand why that is not the case?   The main reason I think this is it is not a normal form of entertainment but I still think it should be treated as it is.
