Thanks to Hot Karl, I came across two very good reads.

Thumb up for sleazy.

This article is about Joe Francis the founder of the Girls Gone Wild brand which has been teasing you with college girls on cable as long as most of you can remember. and it shows you that he is a true humanitarian. Take a look:

But the women are changing, Francis tells me, and that makes him sad. In the beginning, when “Girls Gone Wild” cameramen first popped up in clubs, the women who revealed themselves seemed innocent—surprised, even, by their own spontaneity. Now that the brand is so pervasive, the women who participate increasingly appear to be calculating exhibitionists, hoping that an appearance on a video might catapult them to Paris Hilton-like fame.

And Francis is getting a bit old for spring break. He says he’s tiring of the eternal vacation. “It’s really the worst thing, in my mind,” he says, comparing it to a trade show or a convention. “It’s fun for everybody else but me. I just get hounded by kids. It was more fun not being famous on spring break.” What’s more, the press has been omnipresent and, he says, too critical. “I’ve been anally raped over and over by the media.”

It’s an odd sort of thing for him to say. In January 2004, as news reports recounted, he was forced at gunpoint to simulate sodomizing himself with a vibrator as an intruder videotaped him in his Bel-Air mansion. A 28-year-old named Darnell Riley was arrested 14 months later, after police received a tip from Paris Hilton. Riley pleaded guilty to robbery and attempted extortion and was sentenced to 10 years and eight months. He is serving his time in Corcoran State Prison.

Yea… I think this one of the few times in life I wouldn’t feel bad about someone getting sodomized. Cry me a river, you’ve become a multi-millionaire and you want someone to feel sorry that the girls are not as ‘innocent’ as they used to be and you can’t enjoy Spring Break like you used to? Someone please start a fund to help Joe Francis out. This guy would lead a list of what is wrong with people these days, money and sex crazed, because you know that all is life is these days. I didn’t quote the type of shit Francis does on a standard day but it is a MUST read.

This next thing Karl found is a fucking long read but well worth it. It is being made into a movie and one of the craziest true life stories I’ve heard in a while. I won’t say anything so you read the whole damn thing but, I don’t know which guy was more crazy.
