that's just me

the rrw gets lots of email, comments and genuine input from what can only be described as a cult following. i really don't deserve any of the adoration. i'm just one man trying to preach it like it is. hell, just ask one of my seven ex-wives. one hour a week is all i'm good for my sisters... if you're picking up what i'm putting down.
let me preach on it....
n...n...n...now if you're one of the previously mentioned seven, don't pick up the phone and ask your lawyer to increase the alimony. as doyle would say from slingblade, "this ain't no paying gig!" hhhaaa! in fact, i'll probably have to eventually sell my 'bloggings' to a publisher just to be able to buy some new rims for the cadillac. i know what you're thinking...."what's wrong with your fly rims?" or maybe "the rrw might have a book published?" well let me just say that you shouldn't jump to conclusions my brothers. (i got some rims on lay away) today's publishing world is not what you think.....
say what??? why not, you might ask?? well my brothers, you do need a license to hunt. you need a permit to drive, then you need to have insurance before you can actually drive. you need a visa to travel to most countries, and a passport to leave yours, but first a birth certificate to get that passport. you need a license to fish. you need to register to vote. you need a permit to build a house. but apparently, any old asshole can get a book published.
that is indeed the case! well, that is indeed the case, if you can afford the $2,500, it costs to pay the publisher to send you a letter of congratulations and then print your book as it is ordered online. (pretty safe bet for the publisher) the rrw has got some family members, and let's not forget the cult following, but i wonder how my 95 cent profit margin will actually add up to a profit? do you realize that i could take my three year old dog's name, add it to a poem, pay $2,500 and she too would actually be published.
if you're stupid enough to pay someone to do this, hoping that it will make you feel like you actually contributed something, chances are, the only thing you contributed to, was your own stupidity. that, and of course, someone else's kid's college education. welcome to the 21st century....
peace out!
