Former teen idol Leif Garrett comments on the death of Charlton Heston

Garrett: “You know, most times when I go down on a dude it’s just so’s I can bank the money to shoot hoop or whatnot. But in Heston’s case, I may just have done it for free. Had he let me, I mean. Which, you know, not a chance that was gonna happen — unless maybe I got him drunk on single malt, made myself up like a monkeyfied Kim Hunter, and promised to spank him with a banana or some shit.

“Godspeed, Chuck. And if anybody in heaven gives you any guff, go ahead and pop a cap or two in his ass. See if God doesn’t crack a smile for a player.”

    Had he let me, I mean NO WAY. The boy’s latrine has peepholes.

    What are the chances NRO or Cappy Ed links this one?

    It’s like I have a blog death wish, I think. But at least I’ll kick with a smile on my face.

    – The Ape pack leaders would blame it all on Bush, while explaining patiently to the herd just why those 2nd amendment things were only meant for the protection of beneficent cult figures.

    Jeff, wouldn’t worry much about other’s links; you’re a brighter point of light, an individual who is expanding the schema of disobeyance…

    But what can you do? How can anyone prevail against such pervasive social subjugation?

    The answer’s been here all along.

    I learned it 36 years ago, on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C., standing with Dr. Martin Luther King and two hundred thousand people.

    You simply…disobey.

    Peaceably, yes. Respectfully, of course. Nonviolently, absolutely.

    But when told how to think or what to say or how to behave, we don’t. We disobey social protocol that stifles and stigmatizes personal freedom.

    I learned the awesome power of disobedience from Dr. King…who learned it from Gandhi, and Thoreau, and Jesus, and every other great man who led those in the right against those with the might.

    Disobedience is in our DNA. We feel innate kinship with that disobedient spirit that tossed tea in to Boston Harbor, that sent Thoreau to jail, that refused to sit in the back of the bus, that protested a war in Viet Nam.

    In that same spirit, I am asking you to disavow cultural correctness with massive disobedience of rogue authority, social directives and onerous law that weaken personal freedom.

    But be careful…it hurts.

    Ace might link, Jeff. Because that’s how he rolls.
    You know, like an Ewok.
    The serious guys…mmmaybe notsomuch.

    And do not expect a call out from Barone!

    The amazing thing about “The Naked Jungle” is that the SciFi Channel made a sequel.

    My oldest sister, Catherine, had a crush on Leif Garrett, back in the day.

    I’ll never see either of them in the same way, ever again.

    Leif Garrett. The Lance Bass of the 70’s. Both occupy a way too many of my storage neurons.

    I bet Goldberg thought it was funny.
