Essay 650


Throwing bricks and more in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…

• Supporters of stricter border security have been sending messages to elected representatives in Washington via bricks (pictured above). The bricks symbolize the notion of building a barrier between the U.S. and Mexico, in addition to being a disruptive delivery device. About 10,000 bricks have been received to date. “Given the approval ratings of Congress these days, I guess we should all be grateful the bricks are coming through the mail, not the window,” said one senator’s spokesperson. Rep. William Jefferson has requested that people send him only gold bricks.

• Liz Taylor defended Michael Jackson, speaking about his bedroom antics with children and insisting “there was nothing abnormal about it.” In fact, Taylor admits she played in bed with Jacko and his nephews. Yeah, there’s nothing abnormal about frolicking between the sheets with Uncle Michael and Auntie Liz.

• DJ Troi Torain (aka DJ Star) defended himself against charges of sex threats aimed at the child of a rival DJ (see Essay 600). DJ Star insisted that if his words make him a criminal, then someone should also bust another rival who labeled him a “spermless dwarf.” Great, now folks are defaming dwarves with erectile dysfunctions too.

Taylor also denied having Alzheimer’s. She was quoted on Larry King as saying: “Look Oprah, all these reports about me are just not true.”
