The saga of the Titanium Rib and Dr. Mel Smith

March 29, 2021 By Karl Leave a Comment

Dr. Mel Smith & titanium rib pt.

I've had a lifelong interest in discrimination and birth-defects stemming from being bullied for my once-nasal cleft-palate speech. Hence I was interested when college classmate Alain Gunn wrote The Titanium Rib. The Discrimination Angle The book is about a device that allows infants born with defective chests and lung function to live. And it's a true story of two dedicated surgeons —one  being a black man who endured discrimination as a trailblazer entering the lily white ranks of … [Read more...]

Adorable cleft-lipped boy adopts a cleft puppy—instant love.

September 12, 2020 By Karl 1 Comment

Cleft lip boy and dog.

Amid the 4 Ps confronting us Californians —pandemic, poverty,  protests, and pyrotechnics* — comes a heartwarming story from Sydney Page at The Washington Post. Just what I needed, as a fellow cleft-affected person, to forget about the "plagues" which are  depressing us in the San Francisco Bay Area. We've had to keep indoors (no outdoor masked activity) for twenty-something straight "unhealthy" Spare the Air days due to wildfires. Then a man who has a 2-year-old with a cleft … [Read more...]

Answering the question, Is the Joker a Psychopath?

Joker a Psychopath?

I noted in a recent piece  that I'd deal with the question, is the Joker a psychopath? Of course, it matters a lot which portrayal of the Joker we're talking about. Sheltering in place has given many people  time to watch various movies. Of the many featuring the Joker, most have probably see Heath Ledger's The Dark Knight and/or Joaquin Phoenix's Joker. To keep things manageable, let's choose Ledger's version in The Dark Knight, knowing there's nothing ever definitive about a fictional … [Read more...]

The Psychopath and The Hare.

March 15, 2020 By Karl Leave a Comment

The Psychopath and the Hare lip is my way to addressing what's become an interesting debate among moviegoers. Even comic book aficionados have gotten into the act.  And so may you and I as so many of us are at home without  sports,  political rallies, and other live TV as a distraction. We've got time to watch movies like  Joker. The debate is whether Joaquin Phoenix, who won an Oscar for Best Actor, portrays the Joker as a psychopath or not? The Psychopath and The Hare … [Read more...]

Cleft Joaquin Phoenix strikes again – Joker.

October 6, 2019 By Karl Leave a Comment

Cleft Joaquin Phoenix -before and after makeup.

Evil teaches us to livE: — this anadrome** comes to mind when I think of cleft Joaquin Phoenix — the fictional miserable life of Batman's Joker generates evil — the real "miserable life" of Phoenix generates great art about evil and good. What comes to mind re the movie Joker is less relevant: another  star vehicle for Phoenix the biggest-grossing October launch ever, $90 million in first 2 days a "scary movie" with tons of violence that's forced many theaters to hire cops … [Read more...]

Casanova Scammer

Casanova Scammer uses “Privilege”

The Tinder Swindler – a male Anna Sorokin?

  This website is about justice and equity,  and so today it's about the Tinder Swindler. It's only fair that I give equal time to a male who's similar to fraudster Anna Sorokin whom I've blogged about here and elsewhere. I have less info about the the Tinder Swindler —Netflix's name for … [Read More...]

Anna Sorokin deported yet?

Criminal Fake Heiress Sorokin Deported Yet?

Anna Sorokin, whom I blogged about last time and a while before that, proves my assertion that celebs get special "justice." Before our very eyes in recent years, fraudster Sorokin's gone from a shadowy subject of a Vanity Fair piece on her criminal behavior to a privileged celebrity. Her … [Read More...]
