I was perusing Twitter stumbled across this.

If you need help in breaking down that video, that's rapper Travis Scott with a roller coaster on-stage. Cool right?

Wrong!

Unless you think plagiarism is cool!

I present to you the one and only Tommy Lee on HIS roller coaster.
Yup. Mr. Lee was the originator of onstage roller coasters and I'll be damned if he doesn't get credit for this.

I can leave with some level of injustice but this I can;t tolerate look at this statement from Travis Scott's people:

Please tell me who came up with AND executed this idea then. I don;t want someone saying that they drew a picture of a roller coaster on a stage and want credit the way that hack Da Vinci used to.

I intend to keep my finger on the pulse of what is likely to become the biggest copyright lawsuit of the century and will keep you updated right here.

Telling them that vaping is bad. This happens with everything, with booze and cigarettes being prime examples. If something is deemed bad and dangerous, it becomes cool. So let's make it uncool, by having adults tell them it's awesome. I want every parent out there to start taking up vaping. If y...

The Christmas Dreidle: A Second Attempt At A Hallmark Movie Treatment

Last year, I tried to weasel my way onto the lowest rung of show business aside from freak shows: The Hallmark Channel. I wrote a treatment for what many felt was destined to become a holiday classic, A Conundrum For Christmas . It would've starred Kate Beckinsale and myself, and followed a woman as she tried to enjoy Christmas again after her husband's untimely death by way of autoerotic asphyxiation. Since those people at Hallmark will air anything and their audience will gobble it up, I couldn't believe this wasn't optioned. Quite, frankly, it's a travesty. However, I'm not one to give up that easily. So I decided to try again.
