Comment on Actual Howard Hughes Memo by Jimmy Crack Corn

I’m sorry, but having read the Bartlett and Steele biography on Hughes, I have very little pity for him, insane or no. He ran RKO Pictures into the ground, he was less than transparent with his dealings concerning Trans-World Airlines, his Vegas investments were a joke, and he came close to bankruptcy while portions of his empire succeeded in spite of his and his cronies’ meddling (Hughes Electronics & Aircraft).

Mr. Spizale seems to think his undiagnosed mental state leaves him untouchable and immune to ridicule. Bullshit.

Hughes was crazier than a shithouse rat in every sense, and if he hadn’t driven away his friends and family while his “disease” was still manageable in his early life (before the germ and even stranger phobias and tics kicked in), he might have lead a much more normal life.

Whether or not that was due to said mental illness, it really doesn’t matter. His life until he went into hiding was a classic example of narcissism and domination, and I’ll be damned if some anonymous Internet toad takes away my fun time of making fun of such an awful example of humanity.

I say once more, no matter, no matter what the emergency, no matter how extreme the emergency, no matter how unusual the circumstances, it is extremely important to me; I say once more, no matter how extreme the emergency, no matter how unusual the circumstances may be, no matter what may have arisen, it is extremely important to me that nobody ever posts this memo on any blog, website or other electronic or non-electronic form of communication.

Ah, who am I kidding? I put it up to exploit a handicapped person, so I shouldn’t pretend I’m creating some noble “teachable moment.”

But then again, any book or movie about Hughes is basically trading on the same fascination. People are curious about him because he was sick.

So I don’t know where that leaves me. But I do know this is like the only post generating any traffic on this nearly dead blog. And I’m getting about $3 a month from Google Ads. Can’t turn that down.

Thank you for your heartfelt comment, Matthew. I must admit when I came across the memo I never considered that side of things. I only felt it was funny. But of course you’re right. The man suffered from a serious mental illness. And I’m sure it’s incredibly hard for the friends and family of people like Hughes. I should probably take it down, but I have to think on this a bit more. If nothing else, it’s given some people a chance to consider the serious side of this issue.

Ok. Some still don’t seem to get my sarcasm. If you take out the sarcasm, here’s what my initial comment is saying:
“It’s a shame you felt compelled to share this. Writings that are the product of a mind tormented by a misunderstood disease shouldn’t be held up for ridicule. It’s just like you finding the diary of a girl with an eating disorder and posting it so people can laugh at how fat she thinks she is.”

I suck something awful at fighting, so I think I might be able to take one, if it were a girl, and if she was in the middle of a bad asthma attack. Yea, then I could kick her ass. Totally.
