Another movie star goes wackadoo

  Really, now, at what point do we establish that someone whose pampered and wealthy lifestyle affords him or her whatever they want, both in material possessions and attention, has gone over the edge?
  Take, for example, Heidi Montag, whose doctor transformed her into an unrecognizable human being.
  More doll than girl, Montag scares people now. She sees nothing out of the ordinary in her transformation.
  Fifty years old and a surgeon to the stars, this famous doctor Frank Ryan (originally from Toledo) died the other day. He drove his Jeep over the edge of a cliff near his home in beautiful Malibu while texting this:
Minutes before his crash, Ryan had Tweeted: "After 25 years of driving by, I finally hiked to the top of the giant sand dune on the pch west of Malibu. Much harder than it looks! Whew! ... Border collie jill surveying the view from atop the sand dune."
He also Tweeted a photo of his dog on the dune.
  Prince Charles of England is another privileged human being who doesn't seem to quite get it. A staff of 125 people lives with him at his palace to meet his every need. He flies around the world in a private jet lecturing others on what they need to do to prevent global warming. Indeed, he believes his purpose in life is to "save the world."
  How will he save the world? He tells people to stop living the way he does. Daily Mail:

Each member of Charles's party will leave a carbon footprint of 4.41 tons - 13 times more than if they had used a scheduled flight on the same type of plane, which can carry up to 156 passengers.
The flights on the specially converted jet, which boasts a master suite with its own lavatory and shower, will cost an estimated £80,000 - five times more than business-class fares on scheduled airlines.
  So he's made a movie about this purpose. It's called Harmony, and he's hoping all of you will all drive to the cinema and see this movie about him, his purpose in life and the fact that the planet has a.....fever.
  The beautiful, thin, rich, talented and white but tortured Sheryl Crow used her angst to record a derogatory song about Sarah Palin.
  Joaquin Phoenix of Signs and Walk the Line fame had a great career going. What happened? He started behaving oddly, undoubtedly due to the hardships of all that fame and money. He had to emerge, like a caterpillar, into the butterfly he had always longed to be. 
  Now a documentary (or mockumentary?) will be released about Joaquin's "journey." Is it a joke? Is it real? No one knows. But we're all supposed to drive to the cinema and watch his evolution, because in watching this cinematic delight we will learn something more about....ourselves. 
  Because it's all about ourselves, right?
  Take a look at the trailer. 



  How did we get to the place where our commander in chief feels himself so above the small people, cold and detached from reality that he could manufacture money of thin air, ignore the wishes of a majority of the people, continue on a path that is so obviously not only wrong but calamitous and then act like he's doing the taxpayers a favor by bailing out every debt-ridden foolish endeavor known to man? 
  It's all about them, I guess. It's all about them.
