A Loving Tribute to Eddie Murphy


My Take on The Golden Child

We find after retrieving sword that Eddie Murphy’s character has a reputation even on the other side of the world as being about as imperfect as they come, but like a puppy shitting on a carpet, their imperfections somehow move your heart closer to them. The more klutzy these Americans, the more they remind others of their own family..  Of course we speak of the love-sponge American, not the sid-vicious variety

It’s hard to think of Eddie Murphy even as a fictional character as chaste (then again, maybe he’s hiding a private matter only his shower mirror truly reflects—we certainly grant him exclusive focus when beset by pity so witheringly due.)  I like to think of Eddie as a reprobate with a heart of gold—as in the instance of a woman who is famously open and generous to all needy wayfarers in the community and yearns to lift up their spirits. It is this sense I think we all agree Eddie has a pure and generous heart of gold.

Therefore realistically speaking as for the movie we can conclude that maybe chastity between the couple with hots for one another serendipitously uncovered a rule meant to be broken.—but then, again, I would honor Eddie’s characteristically long and deliberative perusal of ancient wisdom literature—a bound set of 30 tomes with appendix and matching magnifying glass are available in the private scholar study carol at the Public Library (next poison ivy research publications) --should Eddie decide that the wisdom-passion chariot is best driven by slow and steady late-night handshakes with the sages of the ages.


Now that kid—the Golden Brat—is ubiquitous in America—books, movies, businesses, churches, prisons, used car dealers, even old folk’s homes.  Of course, we mean that imp of human kindness that is "into" everything in God’s Country and embedded like sticky-taffy in our sharpest minds.  This won’t-sit-still brat makes us feel like the luckiest people on earth when most every face met is kind, every word encouraging, every meal in good company, works of the arts mind blowing.  Hell, I think many of us would work for free for the fun of it if we could.  But then again, who needs money anyway since a strange new currency has emerged around Wonder World whose issuer personally guarantees (from a reportedly inexhaustible supply) every cent in gold bullion.
