This scene at the funeral of teevee pitchman, Billy Mays, is like right out of Fight Club, where the guys in the support group are all hugging one another while squeezing their man boobs. Question: Is this happening because they are putting too much estrogen in the food supply, or is this just one more example of the media becoming the message – right smack dab until the very last minute when one is being laid to rest? As though the Michael Jackson pay-for-posterity story wasn’t enough, now it is downright fashionable to have oneself filmed imitating dead celebrities at their funeral. And while Americans sink further and further into media fantasy to the point at which it simply becomes an imitation of faux life, Iran is still in turmoil without so much as a peep from the great One, the so-called “leader” of the free world. Nobody is holding teevee funerals for the victims of that uprising. Isn’t that odd.
