Something to Keep in Mind

March 20th, 2008 by Riley

If you get yourself into massive debt by means of several failed artistic endeavors, you may have to resort to wild and crazy options of making a lot of money fast in order to pay said debt down. If you do that, you can move to L.A. before you are too old to accomplish anything there and actually be able to afford the hellacious rent prices. Of course, there is a possibility that I will just get into more debt and never actually accomplish anything, but that’s future debt, and here and now debt is slightly more pressing.

There are lots of ways to make money online. If you need the cash badly enough, you will do what you have to do, and right now… I have to do.

So, here’s an analogy for you.

Let’s say Patty Duke does a commercial for urinary incontinence. It doesn’t mean that she’s incontinent. It doesn’t even mean that she cares about people who are incontinent. It just means that she wants to collect a paycheck for going in front of a camera and talking about incontinence.

These things are generally categorized as “commerical breaks”.

You see what I’m saying here?

    ok, i’ve gathered that you’re trying to tell us one of two things:

    1. you feel as if your life is on a “commcerial break” right now. the show started off up beat and full of optimism. the plot began to thicken as you reached out to take certain risks and just before the joyful climax where everything works out…. commerical break. like ryan seacrest on american idol (anyone absolutely hate that guy?).

    so now, you’re riding out this commercial break. unfortunately, it happens to be one of those really, really long commerical breaks. perhaps even one of those commercial breaks where the volume seems to increase to unbearable levels but there’s nothing you can do to turn it down because you’ve misplaced the remote and you’re too lazy to get up and do it manually! why can’t the show just come back on?!?! and this how you feel your life is right now. or….

    2. are you going to be in a commercial???

    Okay. I feel one of two things are at work here.

    1. You are WAY over-thinking this.

    -or-

    2. You are high.

    Though I did enjoy your commecial analogy. I would amend it though. No one could say the show started off “up beat and full of optimism,” and there wasn’t a lot of rolling along through plot. It’s more like the show was pre-empted for an infomercial before it had a chance to begin.

    like Bionic Woman? it started out bad, got worse, and then got canceled?

    i may have over thought. i had the day off and got really bored.
