A Titanic Joke

Modern society offers up a seemingly endless supply of bad jokes, but probably the biggest howler of late is the notion that film director James Cameron can somehow help BP with the oil spill. This guy is nowhere near being anywhere near able to help - his knowledge is akin to a pimple on the butt of a gnat that is on butt of the elephant that is this problem. Such are the ridiculous notions that emanate out of a society that places too much value on our moviemakers, who ultimately only tell stories and take pretty pictures, thus investing them in the public's consciousness with having expertise that they surely do not.
