Before Avatar, There was Butt Bongo Fiesta

Back in 1992 Howard Stern released on VHS Butt Bongo Fiesta.  The video consisted of female butt cheeks getting bongoed.  There was a tribute to vagina, Jessica Hahn and the elephant trunk and much more.

One segment featured on this hilarious romp stomp was 3D jungleman featuring Baba boey.  A human ape who ate his own booger.  So 18 years before Avatar, Stern was ahead of the curve with what the public wanted to see.

Society, Psychology and Pants on the Ground

During a conference call the other day our discussion turned from business to the topic of Pants on the Ground.  The song performed by Larry Platt the 63 year old who at one time marched with Dr. Martin Luther King and is an activist in Atlanta.  He was inspired to write the song when one day he was walking down the street and he saw a guy with a pacifier, baby bottle and a baby walking and his pants were on the ground.  Hence looking like a fool with your pants on the ground.

It has plagued me since his appearance why everyone is finding this so funny?  It has become an instant hit everywhere in society and in pop culture.  Just the other day using the rest room at an Office Depot written on the bathroom wall was the song.  There I was with my pants on the ground reading looking like a fool with your pants on the ground.  Let me say I did not hate the performance and I liked Larry and what he brought to the table.  I just felt his message was more serious and is an important one and didn't understand where I was missing the joke.

We all know Larry is referring to basically the yo boy look.  Pants hanging down below your butt so that your boxers are sticking out and hat tilted sideways etc. etc.  The history of this fashion statement began when young kids in the LA went to prison.  They were so young that the issued prison garb didn't fit and since belts were forbidden the new inmates pants would literally fall to the ground.  This stirred excitement amongst the other inmates and brought on a whole new generation of pedophilia and prison gang rape.  Belts were forbidden because they could be used to hang oneself or another.  This look of hanging pants entered civilian life when these young kids were released from prison and due to lack of funds had to borrow clothes from older siblings which didn't fit and pow!  A whole new look was born.

Through history there have been many looks that have spread through the mainstream.  

1.  The Virgin:  Madonna

2.  The Neo:  The Matrix

3.  Ducky:  Pretty in Pink

4.  Glam:  Any Hair Band from the 80's

5.  The Jimmy Page:  Long curly permed hair

6.  Hippy:  The Grateful Dead

7.  The Fan:  Any face painter, jersey wearing sports fanatic

During our conversation what we discovered about Pants on the Ground is that in this day and age of living in fear it is a way to tell the ridiculous looking fools to pick your pants up.  Basically mommy saying sit up straight and get your act together.  American Idol took this sentiment and injected it into american society like heroin into a fresh vein.  Larry gave America a way to tell these individuals you look like a fool and get your act together.   

In an interview on The View Larry said he hopes his message of personal responsibility doesn't get lost in his popularity. 

One thing Larry did do is now whenever a yo boy is out in public walking around he will self consciously be thinking do they think I am a fool for having my pants on the ground.  Thanks Larry.  America Loves You!

King of Pop Tarts!

Michael Jackson began his career at a very early age. As in Asian cultures his life was chosen for him, he did not choose his life. I think he died a very lonely unhappy soul who loved the limelight and being the center of attention. They say he mortgaged everything he had. Michael Jackson never cared about money he was programmed to do one thing and that was entertain the world.

His supposedly comeback tour was scheduled for July 8th so he could begin paying back the $400 million he owed to the people that bailed him out.

Him passing away was the best thing he could do for society, his children as well as his brothers and sisters.

First lets start with the corporate snakes who gave Michael the money to bail him out. Even if the tour was a flop they would have exploited every opportunity to profit off of MJ's name. This is great because they don't get paid back.

His children may have a slim chance to move on with there lives and try to develope some sort of a normal life. Also without money they cannot hide and will have to venture out into the world to make it on their own like the rest of us. Now his brothers and sisters will have nothing to fight over because there is nothing left. Michael Jackson was a kid that never grew up and that is how he treated everything in his life. Exactly the way a child would.

It is so great to watch the media try to make sense of Michael Jackson. Do you show him as MJ the kid or as a father, pedophile, circus clown, artist, dancer, freak show anything but the truth.

He was a lonely, disturbed individual who the world was fascinated by because of his talent as well as his crazy antics.

What every star attempts today to try to make them newsworthy and relevant, Michael has been doing for years. Actors today conjure up schemes to get themselves in the news so they can get attention. It's all fake unreal acting. All these stars are a bunch of tarts. Which makes Michael the King of the Pop Tarts. Or should we say OT (original Tart).

Anyway thanks for entertaining us for 40 years and giving us all something to talk about.

As of 6/25/09 your life has just begun and finally you can be whatever you want to be.
