Guess what? I am back. Today, I am finding myself vexed by something, something so inane that it is keeping me up at night. I was watching some old Surreal Life crap with Charo. My question is what the fuck did she ever do to become famous? I mean she is not really famous but she is a "C" class celebrity and it appears to me that she is a celebrity for being a celebrity.
I know about that Koochie Koochie bullshit. I remember her on the Love Boat. I mean anybody who was anybody was on the Love Boat in the 70s. I can being glad that I had friends so that I no longer had to stay home watching that crap on a Saturday night while back in junior high school. I know, good Canadian boy that I am, I should have been watching Hockey Night in Canada, but the Leafs, though in the height of the Sittler/Salming years (I did watch them all the time) would only break my heart. I am thinking as a Leaf fan, I should become a Cubs fan, too. I figure that way I can have misery year round and just go from one miserable sporting existence to another, but I digress...
What the fuck is "Kootchie! Kootchie!" anyway? It is not like she was attractive, even back in the day (of course, that is just my opinion). Her lips looked like collagen injections gone bad, really bad (see Meg Ryan at present), though given the time I think those were natural. They arrived about ten minutes before the rest of her. You could have used those lips as a billboard.
I know she played some classical guitar. I saw her do it on the Love Boat, and Aaron Spelling would not allow one of his television shows to lie to us po' folk. But what was she doing so that she ended up on Love Boat. Please do not tell me it was that "Kootchie! Kootchie!" shit. Again I ask what that was all about. Did that pass for titillating back in the 60s and 70s? Have I been so jaded by the upfront sexuality of the present, that I can't figure this out?
I really need help with this. I mean I cannot even blame the inventors of Molly Ringwald for this. Besides, Molly had "normal" lips, I mean nicely pink and pouty in a teenage way. Who is this Charo and why is she here?!!!!
That is all for today. ciao.
