What prices fame? It would looks to be freedom to me. As wat Uncle Ben said to Peter Parker, With great power, comes great responsibility. When you have lotsa eyes looking at you, especially if some of those eyes belongs to kids or teenagers who look up to u as role models, you have to set a good example. To a blogger, I think this sucks.

No, I am not a famed blogger. My normal hit count is 4 hits a day. But I have been following the Kenny Sia and SPG incident with interest. It's not really my problem, but I was present when Kenny and SPG took a topless picture together. And like what most men would feel if put in my position, I envy Kenny. It's not everyday that you get to take a topless picture with a well-known persona. I think it's brave of SPG. Not because she showed her boobs. But she dared to do something that is not acceptable to the social norm, which is showing her boobs. There's a difference in my above 2 statements, if you wanna diss me for talking cock, maybe you should ponder on the difference before doing so. I've always admired her for that. She has a clear idea of how she wants her life to be and she's sticking to it regardless of what other pp thinks abt it, except for her loved ones. Human are such conformist creatures. They always feels the need to be accepted by the society. Kudos to her for sticking to what she beleived in. It's a pity her idea of having fun in life revolves around sex and sex only. I may be wrong abt this, if I am, I apologise. I thought it's bad to obsessive abt anything. There should be a balance in life.

I have digress too much. Back to the Kenny problem. After the incident, he posted an entry in his blog describing it. I thought it's quite funny. And it's really something that happened to it, and it's his blog after all. But alotta pp have other ideas. They started slamming Kenny for doing it. They say they lost their respect in him. That he shld not do this kinda thing. Some even bringing his gf and parents into the picture saying he has brought them shame and hurt them. This so so totally wrong. It's his blog and last I check, it means web log. And not magazine or newspaper. He's logging abt something that has happened to him. What right do pp have to criticise him for it. Some say his actions are deplorable. He took a topless picture with another woman in a room where there's less than 20 pp around and where there's definitely no kids within any line of sight. Looking at the comments in the article, you would have thought he's married but he made love to a prostitute in public. People in self proclaimed morale high ground seems to think they are superior and like to kick at those in lower grounds. For gdness sake, just because someone do not share ur values do not make them any less of a human being. You should just get on with your life and let them get on with theirs.

Sometimes I think it's also due to pp feeling they are part of the blog since they read it regularly. They feels they owns it. So if anything happens thats contrary to wat they believe in, they whacked the author. You want him to be funny and creative and set you are setting markers everywhere. You have such a lousy sense of humour. You want pp to come up with good works, you have to give them the authority to do what they want. And accept those that are deemed not acceptable. It's part of the parcel. If you can't accept it, either you change or you leave. It's similar to raising a child. You want the child to grow up to be a perfect person. So you scold him whenever he does something u do not agree with. Do you think the child will grow up to be a gd leader? No. He will only be a puppet as he's used to taking instructions from you. He won't know how to think for himself.

Why is it humans reproduced by giving birth and not by cloning. It's because nature wants every human to be different. So when pp are different, it's a work of nature and accept the person for who he is, not for who he is not.

Again, I digress too much. Anyway, Kenny got alotta flames, and he decides to take out the offending picture from the post. It's still not enough. So he took out the whole post and replace it with something alot less controversial. His right hand is itchy and he used the index finger of his left hand to scratch it and it's not itchy anymore. Thats a superb post man. Real funny. I had a good laugh from it. Few days later, he do even better. He posted another article that looks strikingly similar to the SPG post that he removed and replaced Sarong with Saddam. This guy is a genius. He can be funny and yet taking a dig at his detractors. My hats off to you, Kenny. Just this morning, Kenny posted an apology to the pp he let down by posting the original SPG post. This guy has really been to a lot. He has felt the weight of his great power. He felt stifled cause he can't write what he wants anymore. Even then, I feel there's a thinly veiled sarcasm aimed at his detractors. This guy is a genius at being funny. I hope he manages to find a place for himself in the blogging world which is closest to what he wants to be.

To all those who are quick to judge and condemn pp, pls try to repect that sometimes pp are different. Respect that and you may find that the end result is better than if you are being uptight abt it.
