Delusions of Grandeur or a Cracked Egg?
March 2nd 2011 20:47
In his own words Charlie Sheen or Carlos Irwin Esteves (yes that's his real name) is a freakin' rock star from Mars, a warlock an F-18 with tiger blood and magic and poetry in his fingertips. He is not bi-polar but bi-winning and can't be processed because he is not normal, not from this particular realm.
He shares his "realm"—along with his very small impressionable children—with a twenty-something porn star and prostitute, or as he calls them, his goddesses, who are the best at what they do. They are his beautiful perfect lovely family whom he deserves. His home is full of a ton of laughter love and nobility, where defeat is not an option. Again all his own words. When asked, what makes him a good dad, he answers quickly, "Everything. Next question."
As far as those who have been behind the scenes of his Two and a Half Men sitcom, he labels them fools, trolls and clowns, who lay down with their ugly wives in front of their ugly children. They only wish they had his life. Then rhetorically asks, "Who has it better than me?!".
When asked, "So what's the most important thing for you to live for?" again his answer is—punctuated by the puff of smoke from his cigarette—"Everything."
Is the word "everything" just a euphemism for drugs? You ask. Nope, he is drug free, just ask his pee. According to him the only drug he is on is "Charlie Sheen." Hah! Not only that but he has cured himself of addiction by closing his eyes and changing his brain. WHEW!
Oh Charlie. I don't know what race you are winning, but I do believe you are the only one running. Alas, I have been a fan—yes one of your "billions", not millions of fans—for a long time. I even shrugged the Fleiss fiasco. I watch Two and a Half Men faithfully. Even when it oozes raunchiness.
But because I am a fan I will do what I would do if I were to encounter any other train wreck. I will stare stupefied for a moment and then sadly move on, in hopes that the professionals who know how to mend such a wreck, are let into your life before you become another Humpty Dumpty . Where even the king's horses and king's men can not put you together again.
And for Charlie's sake I hope that Two and a Half Men ends. In my novice opinion it's the only way for him to reach rock bottom. Because when the fame and fortune fades, so will his "goddesses" and other enablers. And after the cigarette smoke clears, leaving only those who truly care about him. Maybe just maybe the next time he's posed the question, "So what's the most important thing for you to live for?" He might answer, "My family and friends."
But for now—and I only hope that some of Charlie's billions of fans will join me—I will close my eyes and change my brain, and cure myself of the drug that is Charlie Sheen.
