Joel, A Life History...

Okay, I've gotten a request to blog more often... Also, my email inbox has been flooded with literally thousands of [imaginary] emails from my adoring [imaginary] readers across the world... It seems as though many of the [imaginary] readers were a bit surprised to see the picture of me and my ex-mistress Salma Hayek... The most common [imaginary] question I get asked in the 2500 plus [imaginary] emails I've gotten is, "Joel, what else have you been up to in your life that we didn't know about?"

Well I wouldn't want to disappoint or lie to my loyal readers, so I am going to open up my scrap book and show you some of the more historic events of my life...

Now, I know what you're thinking... How is it possible that you have thousands and thousands of [imaginary] readers when only the same 10-15 people seem to ever comment on your blog?

Well the answer to that is quite simple... In order to avoid crashing the Blogger site with the mass volume of comments I would normally receive, we had to come up with a system not unlike the Electoral College...

For every 10,000 readers I have, ONE very lucky reader is elected to represent that group... Then when I post something new on the blog, the group gets together and votes on how they would like to respond to my, no doubt epic post... It is then up to their representative to see to it that their voice is heard.

So, do not think of Moe Greene, Cracked Chancla, Sonrisa Morena, Santiago, EMC, CincySunDevil, Cindylu, Marie, Gustavo, Jennifer, Vanessa, Chicana on the Edge, Unforgiving Bitch, Normies, Julissa, JHD, or CAD as simply readers of my blog... No my friend, they are ELECTED OFFICIALS who represent the voice of the masses... they do a noble cause by giving a voice to so many Asi Es- Tales of Mediocrity readers that otherwise would never be heard! And for that they should be thanked...

And now, I present to you: Joel, A Life History....

Did you know I read for the part of the Godfather? Turned it down, schedule conflict:


















I've always been close with the Kennedy's... Jackie O was simply darling, I'm sure you agree:




















If you look close you can see me there behind Dr. King's right shoulder... Not many people know that he was actually supposed to be the opening speaker for me that day... then he broke out the "I Have A Dream" speech and I was like, "How am I supposed to follow that up?" and so I didn't:











I knew Monica Lewinsky way back when... and just how well did I know her??? Well enough:

















How many among us can say we posed for Di Vinci? He was a bit stuffy truth be told, and let me just say, one last time, for the record... I'm bigger than that, and I think you know what I mean:



















And finally... The peace we made that day between Israel and Palestine may not have lasted very long, but at least we got to be part of this famous picture:















So I've been a lot of places and seen a lot of things... I've been offered big movie roles, posed for famous artists, hung with the Kennedy babes, had my toes stepped on by MLK, and been serviced by history's most famous intern... I even brought peace to the world's most tumultuous region... I've balanced the nation's economy- twice... I've helped a mama giraffe give birth... I've held the camera during celebrity porn videos... and perhaps most notably, I was a backup dancer for Bobby Brown during the "My Prerogative Tour"... I've packed all this life into 26 years... and if anyone reading this dares to doubt the validiy of my claims and/or photos- you can just ask anyone one of my elected reader representatives and they'll be glad to tell; It's true... It's all true.

LOL
I'm here via CindyLu over at "Loteria Chicana". I'm glad she linked ya. I found myself smiling and laughing while reading your entry. [Laughing in a good way! LOL]

I look forward to reading you more often. And don't mind if I add you to my list of reads. ;-)

And hey... no wonder your face looked familiar. I used to love that "My Perogative" video... LOL

It is true. I have spoken

Joel said...

moe- you're still bitter that I didn't introduce you to Monica... that's all it is, pure jelousy

wrb- well keep in mind that were talking about the first 26 years of my life, there is still time to make a real impact in the last 50 years

regina- I was so excited about putting that song up, and now it's not working... I think I exceeded the blogger bandwith or something... I'm not really to sure why it stopped working but I'm now pretty distraught about it.

knibilnats- ughh.... I know it, and with Soriano pulling his trade me or play me at 2nd crap, that injury could destroy the whole year before it even gets going.

bonita- I'm glad it was laughing in a good way. I'd be honored to be on your list of reads... I dare say it's as prestigious as dancing around on stage behind the great Bobby Brown.

angelcakes- yeah it took me forever to figure out how to mess with all that coding stuff but once you get the hang of it it's not so hard at all.

gustavo- if that doesn't put an end to the doubt than frankly I don't know what will.

Msabcmom said...

I am here from Loteria Chican too- this post cracks me up! I'll be back!

Santiago said...

You have to be the most funniest guy out there. Keep up the good work.

sonrisa morena said...

i always have enjoyed reading your post but this one has to be by far the funniest one!!! i'm honored that i know such great individual!!!...with his beautiful blue eyes ;-)

Cincysundevil said...

And I thought I was doing well to get 2 drinks at Sonic when I paid for one!

As an elected official in Asi Es, I am sponsoring a bill that you blog much more often. I am sure I can garner enough votes from my colleauges to push this through.

Oh yeah, now that you and Salma are splitsville, would you mind giving me her number? If you don't mind, of course.

JHD said...

I even brought peace to the world's most tumultuous region
Compton?

I would second Rep. Devil's bill, but I'm also sadly behind in my own posting. Then again, when has an elected official not been hypocritical?

Okay, that's it, I cant' read your stuff at work cuz i'm laughing like crazy! people around me think i'm nuts! LOL

You crack me up!

Joel said...

chancla- I am WAY too excited about the Godfather game coming out... with that and the upcoming baseball stuff, I may not leave the house or be able to blog for a whole month!

msabcmom- well if you're coming from Loteria Chicana then at least we know you've got good blog tastes, she's amazingly talented and beautiful... I'm just fat and mediocre, but I'll try to make you laugh every now and then.

santiago- I'm taking my bow right now as women throw roses and panties at me... thank you.

sonrisa- and I'm honored to have you as an elected reader representative!

informant- I like to think of myself as the man behind the pope... the man behind the curtin- kinda like Karl Rove, but um- not evil.

cincy- I think I'd have to use my veto power to fight against anything more than two posts a week.

jhd- not even I could bring peace to Compton.

cad- if work gets in the way of reading my blog you may have to reconsider your employement... priorities! blog before work... my blog at least

Proyecto fotografico

Saludos a toda la comunidad de osos, en especial a los osos en méxico, la razon por la que me interesa establecer un contacto con ustedes es debido a un proyecto personal que vincula mi fascinacion por el arte fotografico y el goce estetico que provoca en mi los cuerpos humanos alejados del estandar de belleza común o comercial, Creo firmemente en que el buscar esa belleza fuera de los patrones de ¨esbeltez¨ es lo más sano que he encontrado, en definitiva me resulta muy atractivo poder ver brazos, piernas, abdomenes y rostros cuya principal caracteristica es la voluminosidad, Me parece que el arte ,en muchas ocasiones, ha dejado fuera esta propiedad que honestamente esta mas presente en el mundo real, me considero un admirador de todos ustedes y de su causa (si es que puede llamarse así).
No tiene mucho tiempo que descubrí quienes eran ustedes y lo que significa ser un oso, realmente me alegre de saber que existia toda una comunidad alrededor del mundo que celebraba y se enorgullecia de su corpulencia.
Yo en especial me di cuenta de lo mucho que me gustaba al ver a Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini), a Vigilante Carlstroem de The Hives, a Servando Carballar de Aviador Dro, a Divine, etc, etc.

Esa admiración y atraccion que siento por esta clase belleza he querido llevarla a un nivel más alto, conceptualizarla y cristalizarla en arte, poder registrarla. Desde el desnudo hasta la documentación de su vida común atravez de la fotografia. La compilación de imagenes que pueda recabar son solo para mi y para ustedes, lo que pueda resultar de todo esto respondera solo a el consentimiento de ambas partes,(exposiciones museograficas, publicaciones impresas, certamenes de fotográfia, etc.)

Si alguno de ustedes quiere involucrarse voluntariamente con este proyecto personal, puede enviarme una respuesta, una foto o lo que deseen a mi correo

rodrigo.correoexterno@gmail.com.

y asi poder establecer una cita, para realizar una sesión fotografica en el lugar que ustedes deseen.

No quiero que nada de lo que planteado aqui se malinterprete, mis intenciones no van más alla de mi gusto personal, ni persiguen otros fiines más que el de un proyecto de arte.

no busco ningun encuentro sexual explicito.

Si les resulta mas comodo, que particularmente para mi lo seria pues me siento más seguro y supongo que ustedes tambien, podemos tan solo conocernos en primera instancia y platicar más a profundidad el tema, dejando para otra cita la sesion.
Para una referencia más pronta, tengo 23 años, soy estudiante de la carrera de diseño de la comunicación grafica y diseñe la imagen para el Festival internacional de cine contemporaneo de la ciudad de méxico en su edicion 2006.

Haganme saber su opinion y hasta pronto.

Rodrigo.
