32 Entropy Lane
A place of disorder and randomness, otherwise known as my life

I have been seething all weekend about Tom Cruise’s upcoming appearance on Oprah where he is a giddy school girl talking about his new romance with Katie Holmes. I just think the whole thing is ridiculous and seems completely false. Why the need to blab to the whole world about it? I love how Katie Holmes hasn’t said a thing. It’s probably because he has brainwashed her. You know he’s a total controlling asshole. That being said, I will watch the whole thing and save it so I can watch it again when Erin Dolan comes to visit on Wednesday. She’s in town for business and is going to stay in town through Saturday. Nothing like a visit to a house with two little kids to remind you to refill your birth control perscription!

I digress. This morning I read this and Tom’s fate is sealed. He sucks. Specifically, Tom, says this “When you talk about postpartum, you can take people today, women, and what you do is you use vitamins. There is a hormonal thing that is going on, scientifically, you can prove that. But when you talk about emotional, chemical imbalances in people, there is no science behind that. You can use vitamins to help a woman through those things.”

Vitamins? Is that what you used to help you through postpartum, Tom? Is it? Oh, wait, that’s right. You haven’t had a baby. But you were in Top Gun so that’s basically the same thing.

It was a busy weekend around the Provost household and I sort of overdid it. I’ll get insane bursts of energy and try to get a million things done and then my body reminds me that it can’t handle it and shuts down. Last night about 7pm, I just hit a wall. We got Hadley and Finn to bed and I crashed. Slept well which is nice.

On Saturday I went to my monthly Lupus support group. There is a good thing about the group and a bad thing. The good thing is there is lots of information. The bad thing is there is lots of information. As most support groups, it is a forum for people to tell their story, gather information and feel validated. I just sometimes feel like it is a pissing contest as to who has the worst Lupus. “You think THAT’S bad, listen to this!….” The two women who run the group have had Lupus for 20 years or so. They are both divorced, a tad bitter, overweight and tired. While they are nice women, I am debating whether or not to return to the group. I’m sure it would be a good place to be when I’m feeling bad but I’m not and for the most part my personality is “acknowledge, move on”. I don’t want to sit around for hours talking about “my story” and what meds worked and what my chart numbers were and how bad my symptoms are. A lot of them were surprised and horrified that I didn’t remember my EXACT ANA levels or what my liver numbers were. I’m smiling because I just realized where I go this attitude. My mom had breast cancer about 8 years ago. When she was going through treatment I asked her why didn’t she join a support group and why didn’t she walk in the Race for The Cure. She said “Breast Cancer doesn’t define me. I just want to get rid of it and get on with my life.” At the time, I didn’t really understand. Now I do.

    Thank you, thank you! I am seething over the comments the arrogant, obnoxious, pompous ass we know as Tom Cruise has spewed about postpartum depression and the use of antidepressants. I think I'm going to hurl! He's so out of the realms of the realities of real life it astounds me. I am with you......I HATE TOM CRUISE.

    I was also really annoyed with Tom's statement. Why does he even think its his place to judge someone else's actions? Who died and made him the authority on postpartum depression? I'm pretty sure that he's never experienced it himself. He's so arrogant to think that we should all listin to what he has to say on any issue.

    I have hated Tom Cruise since the first time I heard him open his mouth in an interview. I had to constantly defend my feelings to people who admired him but I always knew that there was something not right about him and he has now confirmed my beliefs. Everyone I know who liked him or even remotely tolerated him can't stand him now.

    Tom - one question. . . . who do you think you are? Maybe your third wife (if she's stupid enough to marry you) will carry your child and then you should still shut your trap. Unless you're hiding a vagina under those pants - zip it.

    If I was Brooke Shields, first I would kick you between the legs and then I'd sue you for being a rod.

    I've been looking for this. What is his problem? Beiing a bad movie actor does not make you all knowing, it just means you got cast. Good luck explaining your way out of this one, little Tom. Every woman with a uterus, and some without, has put him on their list. It was only a matter of time. His sense of self importance makes my skin crawl. And pick on a girl your own size for once, Tom. Ugh, he makes me sick

    Despite what you think about Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, there is another, much more serious reason to boycott Tom Cruise. His recent statements regarding mental health, psychology, psychiatry, and prescription drugs are false and very disturbing. I will be the first one to admit that yes...some drugs are over-prescribed. I'll agree with Cruise that too many kids these days are on Ritalin. BUT...therapy has been very helpful to millions of people all over the world. There isn't a prescription drug out there that hasn't helped a LOT of people. Tom Cruise insulted Brooke Shields and called her irresponsible for talking about her bout with post-partem depression and taking anti-depressants for it. Yeah...I guess he would just prefer her to handle it like Andrea Yates did??? And drown her baby.

    All of these comments come from his practice of the mysterious Scientology -- a faith only for those with a big wallet!

    Here is an excerpt from his recent interview regarding the mental health field:

    **********************
    TC: "Let me tell you something: it is not a cure and it is actually lethal. These drugs are dangerous... There is a hormonal thing that is going on that is...scientifically, you can prove that. But when you talk about emotional chemical imbalances in people, there is no science behind that."



    (Brooke Shields recently wrote a book about her own bout with post-partum depression...she wrote about the drug treatment that helped her through it.)



    TC: "Look at her life," counters Tom. "Here is a woman - and I care about Brooke Shields because I think she is incredibly talented - (but) you look at where has her career gone? It [the anti-depressant] has helped her? When someone says it has helped them, it is to cope. It didn't cure anything. There is no science. There is nothing that can cure them whatsoever."



    (Tom was asked if he meant drugs had cost Shields her career. )



    TC: "Well, you look at people," he said, trailing off...."Look - is she happy? Is she really happy? What you can do with vitamins and exercise to help a woman through that, to help someone through that, all right. She doesn't know what these drugs are and for her to promote it is irresponsible. And I wish her well in life. (But) it is irresponsible to do that."



    Tom was then asked by the interviewer if he thinks doctors mean well when they prescribe medication...and Tom went on to compare them to drug dealers on the street. He said "You know what? I'm sure drug dealers on the street, in some way, they are making money. That's what I equate it to. Here is the thing: you have to understand, with psychiatry, there is no science behind it. And to pretend that there is a science behind it is criminal."



    See the whole interview here...if interested: http://www.accesshollywood.com/news/4537415/detail.html
    *************
    Here are some recent figures of Tom Cruise's salary according to http://www.imdb.com:
    The Last Samurai: 25 million PLUS % of profit
    Minority Report: 25 million
    Vanilla Sky: 20 million PLUS 30% of Profit
    Mission Impossible 2: 75 million (wow...think of the poverty this money could extinguish)
    Mission Impossible 1: 70 million
    And this is just a PORTION of his earnings in the past 10 years (not including his major profits to be earned by War of the Worlds and the upcoming Mission Impossible 3).
    ************************
    What I am proposing is that you do NOT pay to see War of the Worlds this summer...or buy it on DVD (DVDs are currently much more profitable than most theatrical releases). Instead, buy a ticket for another movie (starting around the same time) if you MUST see the movie. I know it looks good. I know you like Steven Spielberg and Dakota Fanning...but they will continue making movies, despite how this movie does. If we send a message to Tom Cruise...starting NOW...his leverage for future salaries will drop fast. Movie studios won't pay him as much...and it won't happen overnight...but eventually, we can send a message to him...by saying "YOU are irresponsible for the comments you made."



    This is a serious issue to me. I went in to Psychology for a reason -- because I KNOW it helps people. I'm actually not a BIG proponent of anti-depressants...but I KNOW the difference between science and scientology. I know that medications CAN help people...and I think today's movie stars are just WAAAAY over-paid. And when was the last time you heard about TC donating his money to Africa, Asia, homeless people in America? Anyways...if enough people avoid seeing or paying for War of the Worlds...perhaps this will have some effect on Mr. Cruise's damaging comments. If you agree with this at all...please pass it on to anyone you know who would be interested. My next mission will be to get Russell Crowe in to Anger Management classes.

    Tom Cruise is an asshole! On his comments about Brooke Shields.

    Oh yes everyone. Isn't it so convenient when men, which it usually always is, unless it's some brainwashed, Stepford wife, Republican bitch, are always trying to tell women what they should, or shouldn't do with THEIR bodies.

    This all coming from a closet case, supposebly "impotent" (back to the closet case thing again) guy who has had contractual agreements with every hollywood wife to conceal his homosexuality. This coming from a guy who believes in a religion about space aliens, that was concocted by a drug addict, who used sexual blackmail against his followers, and duped people out of millions upon millions of dollars. This coming from a guy who went on National television and made a COMPLETE ASSHOLE out of himself on Oprah declaring his "love" for a girl he's known three weeks. Which in actuality was the most desperate, sickening display of closet caseness I've ever seen in my life. So who needs the drugs, Brooke, or Tom?

    Ummmmmmmm, I'm not even going to justify that question with an answer. I think Tom Cruise is as fucked up as Michael Jackasson, if not more.

    I can't believe anybody has to cite his recent actions to hate this dufus. He is a one-dimensional actor that gets paid tall cash because he looks good. I can outact his worthless azz. Then he tries to play doctor and tell women about their bodies? Enuff said, this piece of sheet is really over the top.

    Tom Cruise is a loser. He can't be trusted. he must be banished from planet earth, sent out into space in a 747 or whatever scientologists believe. He should have never been a celebrity, he is a terrible actor, if he wasn't in the eye of the media all the time, whatever he said/thought would have never been heard by anybody. I am so sick of celebrities trying to throw their beliefs and morals at people, trying to force them to believe their cause is justifiable. I hat you Tom and I boycott anything you do/say especially your religion. I won't even give it a second look. BOYCOTTED!!!

    I've been mostly on the sideline with the whole Tom Cruise thing - I mean, he's certainly entitled to his opinion about things, but I can't understand them most of the time. I can't say that I hate Tom Cruise, cause to do so I would have to acknowledge that I am impacted by him personally, which I am not. I think I can honestly say I am indifferent to Tom Cruise. I don't really know the man, and from what I've observed about him, don't really care to get to know him. Should he suddenly vanish and be abducted by space aliens I don't think it would impact me at all, let alone me even be aware of his absence. I saw Tom in two movies: Ferris Buller's Day off, and Top Gun. He was adequate in both, but hardly Oscar quality. As an Entertainer, I put him somewhere between the white guy who was on Miami Vice, and the bald guy on The Shield. The only reason that Tom Cruise even comes into my mind these days is his meddling to get Comedy Central to pull the showing of the South Park episode "Trapped in The Closet" that parodies Scientology. It would seem Mr. Cruise threatened to punish us by not promoting his new Mission Impossible movie if Comedy Central aired the episode that depicts a disheartend Cruise girly man cry baby locked in a closet because the South Park character Stan, who the Cruise character believes is the reincarnation of L. Ron Hubbard, critiqued Cruise's acting as being poor. A John Travolta and R. Kelly character show up to try to get Tom to come out of the closet, but they too get trapped in the closet with Tom. Now, if Mr. Cruise thinks he can tantrum his way to get a South Park episode pulled, I'm all for abstaining from seeing his Mission Impossible movie - he can stay home and not promote the movie for all I care.

    I was always a fan of his until i heard that he had found a 'cure' for dyslexia! I have been diagnosed since i was 6 and have struggled with it through out live, i know that some people have found ways to help with it, but all sufferers know that there is no cure! Now friend and family with this problem are tring to fine a cure and all it is doing is getting them more and more down to know that there is one, he was wrong to give out a statement like that! he either never had this problem or is just a jerk who thinks he can make people believe in this stupid cult by giving them a false hope!
