How doth the Bumble-Bee......

The amazing Charlie Sheen...not only upstaged the Oscars but took headlines in the Daily Snooze away from the turmoil in the mid-East ‘n the union agitators in Wisconsin...whether you are amused by his antics or appalled by his amoral lifestyle, there’s no denying that his Bad Boy persona has engaged the attention of a large part of the world like no other actor since....well, maybe John Wilkes Booth whose infamy might have been greater if the world had been able to tweet about it...
One of the most interesting aspects, of course, is that everyone has the ability to judge Charlie ‘n there ain’t a damn thing he c’n do about it....except maybe, revel in it...and ev’ryone seems t’be fascinated by a train wreck...I once saw a train wreck where one train ran smack-dab into a parked train ....it was kind’a like watching it in slow motion as they collided and the boxcars rose in the air to hang seemingly motionless for a moment before crashing to the ground...
it was as if time took a breather for a fraction of a second ‘n all the people around me seemed frozen as we all stared....
Anyways, for all our judgments or in spite of them, none of us can predict with certainty how Charlie’s train wreck will eventually end but it will end ‘n there will be damage and the world will move on....
‘n on a post-script side: How does the Muslim world choose someone to cast the first stone?
