1. And behold, there was Judy, the mighty singer. She became an abuser of cocktails, of uppers, and of downers. And behold, she became a gay icon.
And Judy begat Liza, also a mighty singer. She also abused many drugs, and never saw a cocktail but she drank it. And verily, she became a gay icon, too.
2. And lo, in Hollywood there also dwelt John Barrymore, the gifted actor, who, in spite of his handsome profile, became a lush.
And John Barrymore begat John Drew Barrymore, a somewhat less gifted actor, but handsome. Ye, and he was also a lush.
And John Drew Barrymore begat Drew Barrymore
and lo, she was talented. And lo, she was good-looking, and lo, she also became a lush. But then she got better.
3. And then came Mel Gibson, another handsome yet alcohol-ridden actor, and he begat Christian Gibson. And both Mel and Christian were arrested for drunk driving.
Isn't it cute? Father/Son mugshots!
Hath the son, like the father, slandered the name of God's Chosen People? Only time will tell.
And what valuable lesson can we learn from the book of Rehab? Simple. Pick your parents well. Do not let them be big Hollywood stars. Not unless you want to spend the rest of your life holding family reunions at the Betty Ford Clinic.
I like how Mel took advantage of the mug shot to get another head shot done for his portfolio.
What eventually happened with that, other than Mel asking for forgiveness from the Jewish community? What an ass. I hope that his career is over.
Ha, ha! If only one could pick one's parents off the supermarket shelf. "I'll take one Julie Andrews and one Dick Van Dyke. Thanks so much. Now where do I pay?"
I think Mel did a stupid thing. But I drank too much and did a stupid thing once or twice. If he is an alcoholic he might have been blacking out and whatnot. Yes it was crude and stupid but if he is truly sorry time will tell. His family is going through so much right now. Can you imagine what his poor wife is going through?
FUNNY, FUNNY, FUNNY post. Not so funny for the Gibson family. Such a shame that such good looks have to go to waste. *sigh*
I've read this fifteen times and still piss my pants from the laughing.
HA HA HA! Damn funny! You are so clever Poppy.
