Live, Flesh-Eating Dragons

Okay, I have to admit, this looks pretty fun.

But as for real flesh eating monsters, this one is a true story, albeit very strange. It appears that somebody is hellbent, in a jealous fixation concerning Jeremy Coon, thus bloggethed: Beat Jeremy Coon. Note that the site contains offensive material. But I stole a few oddities, to give the effect:

BJC: I once considered converting to Mormonism to beat Jeremy Coon with his own tools. I've kind of let that plan fall by the wayside.

BJC: Do you wish you'd been better friends with Jeremy Coon in high school now that he's made it so big?

BJC: Are you at all concerned with Jeremy Coon basically blasting us all out of the water by being the producer of such a fantastically successful movie and going on to produce more?

I'd seen the blog before, but hadn't payed much attention to it. Looks like it's been going on long enough now to produce a real scene. Makes one think, unfortunately, this Mormon is getting his own celebrity curses, akin to the paparazzi or celebrity stalkers. I'm also left wondering how much of it is tongue in cheek. Certainly, there is an element of that. I mean, regardless, this (from the site) is pretty funny:

I graduated from Berkner High School in 1997. So did Jeremy Coon. I went on to co-write a musical that all my friends in Austin saw. Jeremy Coon went on to produce Napoleon Dynamite. Our high school reunion is in two years. I know I'm better than Jeremy Coon. But in two years, I have to prove it. I have to beat Jeremy Coon.

One wonders if this goal will somehow grow to two years, then three, and so forth. Concering "tongue in cheek," one can never be too certain. People have been known to do, say, and believe the strangest things.
