I understand that a heart surgeon's skills are far more vaulable than mine, ditto a patent lawyer, bond trader, etc.<BR/><BR/>"Artists," such as they are, never seem to fit into the "working mold," therefor they seem to have a huge problem understanding basic skills valuation.<BR/><BR/>Afterall, their own skill sets aren't normally, or perhaps I should say, not consistently valued very highly - a few actors, writers and singers make huge amounts of money, while most spend most of their lives looking for their "big break."<BR/><BR/>In a very real sense, successful artists live in a sort of bizarro world.<BR/><BR/>You're right that some humbling community service would probably do quite a few of them a lot of good.<BR/><BR/>Then again, it didn't seem to have much of an impact on Naomi Campbell earlier this Summer.JMKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14281344324964417974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1559661241465229945.post-75556319069143586242007-09-17T23:39:00.000-04:002007-09-17T23:39:00.000-04:00Madonna and company don't see Kabbalah as part of ...Madonna and company don't see Kabbalah as part of a religion Mick, they see it as some sort of New Age alchemy that'll transform their souls...ironically, the very "souls" they claim they don't believe in.JMKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14281344324964417974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1559661241465229945.post-29068104162676023112007-09-17T19:50:00.001-04:002007-09-17T19:50:00.001-04:00How encouraging and even gratifying to read this. ...How encouraging and even gratifying to read this. <BR/><BR/>I know this is sort of socialistic, but I wish big celebs - who routinely make 6-figures and are often worth 7 - should have to perform, for like one month out of the year, some super-humble community service job.

Did you know that Rosie O'Donnell and a few other celebs flew in for the event as well? <BR/><BR/>Now, even the ancient religion of Judaism is being contaminated.
