It’s worse when you wear a silly helmet and a shirt with sponsors on it.
Lance Armstrong–remember him? Worldwide celebrity, dating Sheryl Crow (until she came out against toilet paper)–and he threw it all away by getting caught cheating.
So he sought absolution. From another celebrity.
Gee. Back around the turn of the 19th century there was a now-famous short story by Robert W. Chambers, “The Repairer of Reputations.” Evidently that’s not Oprah Winfrey, who heard Lance Armstrong’s confession but couldn’t make him famous again.
And now I’m thinking of Humpty-Dumpty…
I know I have heard the name, but for the life of me, I do not remember where, when or who. So, I have no idea what he is about.
He was a world bicycling champion who got busted for steroids.
Oh, ok. I do remember that now that you mention it.
Excellent.
When I first saw Oprah, my initial reaction was; “who died and left her in charge?” I couldn’t believe that people placed so much trust in her opinions. My question still stands, and I’ve never been given an answer.
Oprah, Schmoprah… Pure, unadulterated celebrity, devoid of content.
Celebrity has become a god unto itself.
For such a winner he’s such a loser
