Bad Boy Bubby
I saw a movie early this morning around 4 am on ARTE channel. I am under the impression it is a German film.
Bubby is a 35 year-old big kid with balding head in the front. Buddy lived confined in a room all these years. Bubby’s mother Flo played him this game that the air outside is poisonous and deadly.
Thus, Flo wore a gas mask before locking the door as she goes to work for the day; she orders Bubby to “stay still and quiet”. Bubby would sit still all day long; he is wetting himself until his mother comes back.
Flo would curse Bubby for getting dirty and then she would wash a Bubby totally nude; then Flo would wash herself. Flo would then make love to Bubby; Buddy is the passive and Flo is always on top.
Flo must have trained well Bubby on the best sex activities that pleased and satisfied her: Bubby would massage slowly Flo’s vast bosom, and Flo would say: “Yes, my gentle and good Bubby.”
Once, Bubby asked his mother how it feels to lacking air and Flo grabbed his neck from behind and shut close Bubby’s nostrils. Bubby tried suffocating his cat with a plastic wrap and succeeded. Bubby is now holding and carrying the dead cat wherever he goes. A crucifix is the only pendent in the room and Flo frequently threatens Bubby that God sees everything.
Flo’s lover, (a faked protestant priest with a white collar), shows up after 35 years of absence and this couple resumed where they left off. Bubby is forgotten and the couple spends most of their days outside getting drunk and having good time. Bubby is ordered out of the room/apartment, wearing the gas mask, so that the lovers get on with the love business.
The lover teaches Bubby to call him Popy (Daddy). Bubby is an excellent kid actor: he retains sentences and the correct way to imitate people. Bubby is getting jealous and wrecks the room.
Bubby asphixiates the two lovers at night with plastic wrap; he carries his dead cat and ventured out for the first time in his life. Bubby meets juveniles in a sport red car and memorized their curses.
Bubby meets with a choral of religious group chanting outside and he joins them; he is invited for the first time to taste pizza and he loved pizza best. The youngest female of the choral is mounting Bubby in her apartment and loves Bubby’s passive sex act and she starts singing her favorite chant to Jesus.
Bubby is picked up by a rock band and joins in the singing of “Bad Boy Bubby”: the band comprehended Bubby’s mental limitations and liked his naive and talented acting potentials.
Bubby cannot help but massaging big tits and gets in serious troubles. Once, the group of females knocks Bubby down and kicks him savagely. Bubby is in jail and he is raped by the warden before being set free with $10 charge. Bubby returns home saying: “Now I understand momy why you didn’t want me to know the outside world.”
In the morning, Bubby goes out again wearing his “daddy’s” priest garment along with the white collar: Bubby’s new name is “Popy”. Bubby enters a cathedral and is awestruck by a huge crucifix. He is listening to a rich guy playing the organ alone; the man invites Bubby to his modern and extra clean factory and tell Bubby that God does not exist, that this world cannot be saved but by men… All it takes is that men take on their responsibilities and avoid finding a scapegoat in God for excuses of their bad behaviors.
Buddy gets friendly with a small alley cat and goes out to fetch pizza for the cat. Bubby meets with the rock band and takes center stage singing everything he had memorized. The band writes to Buddy their address since Buddy insists on leaving in order to feed and sleep with the kitten. Bubby chase away a bunch of juvenile delinquents harassing his kitten; the cat is found dead and Bubby is carrying it around.
Assistants to handicapped people meet Bubby holding a dead cat in a public garden; Bubby the kid can understand the handicapped individuals and he is taken to aid communicating with the handicapped people.
Bubby falls in love with the heavy bosomed assistant Angela and the love is returned; Angela washes Bubby and shows him her big tits. Angela stumbles on the address piece of paper of the rock band. Angela takes Bubby to the band and watches Buddy’s shows and mingles with the audience going crazy with Bubby’s antics.
Bubby is now the leading man of the band since he is the generator of the large audience. The band has a surprise to Bubby: two gorgeous blondes are hiding completely nude under the cover of a bed waiting for Bubby. Bubby is not interested with their medium size tits: they are too small for his desire.
Angela lets Bubby meet her parents for lunch; Angela’s folks belittle their daughter as fat on the ground that “God abhors fat girl.” Angela cries and Bubby is upset.
That night, Angela’s parents are found dead suffocated with plastic wrap. Angela is saying to Bubby: “Anyway, they would have died of cancer or poisoned air.” One of the rock band member makes Bubby promise never to kill again since every religion killed millions in order to have their God up another God: Gods that are fundamentally the same unique God.
Angela is pregnant with a child and Bubby is playing with his kid in the garden: a big kid playing with his kid. Bubby is happy and totally at peace with his new world.

Websites to cost users by 2010; (October 18, 2009)
The search for an economic model to generate profit is driving many web developers to charging users for information gathering. It seems that publicity is no longer generating enough resources for the printed media. In 1998, 48% of the US readers got their information from papers versus 13% on the web. Ten years later, 37 % use the web versus 34% paper journals and dailies.
The successes of iTunes Stores and Amazon is for selling digital music on the Web are encouraging movie and written press businesses to testing paying diffusion modes. Two years ago, selling music records on the web amounted to 20% of the music market. In 2008, 1.4 billion records were sold on the web; by 2010 this mode of selling will far surpassing the physical CD sales. Last FM, Yes FM, and Spotify are revolutionizing the market and making “streaming” the preferred option for consumers; the paying option does not contain advertisement. Virgin Media is offering a new legal telecharging “for the price of two CDs you may have access to the entire music catalogue.”
Daniel Ek, founder of Spotify proclaimed that “the consumer doesn’t give a damn of owning or telecharging CD; what he wants is to be able to have access.” The networks for sharing files via Torrent and eMule, the “streaming”, or direct telecharging sites such as Rapidshare and Megaupload have doubled business for the second year in a raw.
Browsing cultural, editorials, and special investigative pieces in dailies will no longer be free. The New York Times got on the web in 2005 and charged its subscribers; it backed off two years later and is now reconsidering payment. Google is receiving advertising benefits through Adsense and Adwords to Google News; the information associations are charging Google to benefit from the labor of other journalists without their consent. Google is studying a formula and it presented it to Newspapers Association of America that would allow dailies to charge its Google’s users for articles read.
Louis Gordon Crovitz, co-founder of Journalism Online stated: “The future is for mix models of free and charged. Authors of numerical books will receive their dues.” Rupert Murdoch, mogul of News Corporation which include Wall Street Journal, Times, and the Sun is leading the charge on account that “an industry that offer its product for free cannibalizes its capacity for producing good journalism.”
The Economist is going to charge micro payments within 6 months; basically there will be two kinds of payments: Essential formula at half price of the Premiere formula where users can read the journals the night before publication.
Paramount, Lions Gate, and Metro-Goldwyn-Myer are uniting to launch on the Epix market high definition movies in streaming mode. YouTube is negociating similar deals with the studios of Hollywood.
Films festival at Sofil Theater (Achrafieh, Lebanon)
From my diary of Sunday, (Written on October 8, 2006 and posted August 21, 2009
Yesterday, Victor and I cleaned one of the three chicken coops because it seemed that it might rain.
Today, Victor wanted to clean his new coop; he spent almost six months constructing, welding, and painting. I had helped reluctantly for six months because nobody wanted any more chicken, the cost, and the trouble that generates nothing but frustration.
Well, I helped him clean for an hour and then he got in his mind to cement the floor. I helped Cedric bring sacs of sands and gravel from a nearby pit. Then, I stopped in order to do some errands. Victor was still cleaning in the evening.
I ventured to the movie theater of Sofil in Achrafieh to see a couple of films of the movie festival.
I watched “Kilometer Zero” at 5:00 p.m. about the Kurds forced to fight Iran in Basra in 1988 and the animosities between the Iraqi “Arabs” and Kurds. The grandfather once told the hero: “We the Kurds had a lousy past, a tragic present but the best is that we have no future”.
I had bought a ticket for the 7:30 movie “Maria Full of Grace” but felt bored waiting and I returned the ticket. I hoped that I might encounter a familiar face; I was certain that this longing will not happen; I never meet familiar faces, not in the festival, not in Lebanon, or anywhere else.
I went back strait home; although I was hungry and had decided to eat at B to B I didn’t feel like stopping on my way and prepared myself a quick diner at home.
I went again this Sunday and watched “A New Day in Old Sana’a (Yemen)” and returned straight home.
May be a short review of what is showing could be enlightening: “Volver” by the screen player Pedro Almodovar which was cancelled, “Trametti”, “I am the one who brings flowers to her grave”, “Beyrouth ma betmout” a mini-DV of 7 minutes by Katia Jarjoura, “Color me Kubrick”, “De battre, mon Coeur s’est arrêté”, “Factotum” a screen play adaptation of Charles Bukowski’s novel, “Malek wa Ketaba”, “Maroc”, “Offside”, “Paris, je t’aime”, “Jezile”, “Nuovomondo”, and “The Queen”.
Free tickets were distributed for “Amaret Yacoubian” before the festival was on and we had no clue; the tickets must have gone to the privilege individuals of the club.
Joanna had been working on a project for two consecutive week-ends and I barely saw her.
I wanted to see “El Violin” on Monday but didn’t feel like driving alone. The weather has been cloudy all the day. I figured that I’ll stop at the Storiom supermarket to buy mom a full fat Tatra powder milk and a ‘crose’ of cigarette ‘Cedars’ for my dad because it might be closed by the time I return.
Then I decided against seeing the movie and spent my night reading “Ensemble, c’est tout”. I might go today and see two movies, including “The Golden Door“, but nothing is sure anymore with my state of moods.
I executed my plan to see two movies last night; I saw “Nuovomondo” and “The Violin” and was back around midnight.
