Team Jolie and tales from Mongolia
Like every right-thinking person in the world, I have to discuss the topic that dominates our world today and has everyone talking from China to Colombia and has divided mankind as never before:
Im talking of course about Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.
I once swore I would never talk about this because I think the whole thing is just incredibly stupid and it gets too much press. However I was watching a very trashy TV program about celebrity scandals of 2005 and there was an intense discussion about who sided with who. Were you on Jolie's side or Aniston's side? The man-snatcher or the innocent wife? There are 'team Jolie' and 'team Aniston' shirts out there so you can lend your support. Whose side you are on is supposedly so important that many marriages have been destroyed because the husband was on 'team Jolie' while the wife was on 'team Aniston'.
And I'll tell you whose side I'm on: Brad Pitt. If I had to choose between Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston, it would take me less than a millisecond to make that decision. Does that sound a bit harsh? Well go and read 'cosmo' magazine then! Angelina Jolie is possibly the most good-looking woman on earth and also ridiculously cool plus she's weird in a way women are not normally known to be. This isnt about being faithful or morals or whatever- this is something that overrides all that. Therefore by extension I'm on 'Team Jolie' for no other reason other than this is Angelina Jolie. No need to start taking drastic measures like applying logic to the situation. That's just unnecessary- logic doesnt always work and you'll discover that if you think about it logically (which you shouldnt be doing since I just said its illogical to think of this logically). Do I feel sorry for Jennifer Aniston? Now that's a topic for another stupid post. God knows it's not her fault: she's just guilty of not being Angelina Jolie. Infact, I think Angelina Jolie even invented the airplane and penicillin. There was a guy on the programme who said "I'm gay, but I would give Angelina Jolie one". That says it all. Did I write half of a post on this stupid affair? My God I'm really losing it.
Charming folk-tale from Mongolia dating back to the days of Genghis Khan: There was a plague in the land and people were dying all over the place. This young boy falls seriously ill, but before he dies, his spirit leaves his body and soars to heaven. God (whoever their God was) is a little suprised by this 'You are not dead yet' he tells the kid 'what are you doing here?' and the boy's spirit said 'I decided not to wait for you to call so I just came over' so God is really touched and takes him somewhere to show him all the wealth and knowledge in the world.
'You can have anything you want to take back with you' he tells the kid 'Anything your heart desires'
The boy thinks about it and makes his decision 'I want the power of storytelling' he says 'because I know it will bring true happiness to my people'
God is really happy so he gives the wise litle boy's spirit the gift of storytelling and his spirit goes back to his body. However on waking up, the boy discovers that some over-eager crows have pecked his eyes out so he is now blind. he gets up and wanders the land, blind, but telling stories. I think that story is really sweet.
