Book Reviews of Kobe Bryant: The Game of His Life

Book Review: Origami
Summary: 5 Stars

The only thing more "brilliant" than the content of this book is the design on the cover. Upon the moment one comes upon it in order to behold, he or she is immediately struck by the "brilliance," for lack of a better word, of it. (It being the cover.) You may ask me, "Why?" I'm gonna tell you exactly why there is brilliance on the outside of this book moreso than inside the cover. It's because of the secret meaning you can discover if you look really hard for a long time at the cover. (It took me even longer to see this than it used to take me to see the picture in the 3-D pictures at the mall.)

Anyway, I saw a documentary on tv once that talked about a famous painting with a secret triangle in it. It was by a very, very, very famous painter who was kind of a "Renaissance Man." And they explained about the triangle in a lot of his paintings in this show I saw. At the top of the triangle was Mary. On one side of the triangle was Jesus. On the other side of it was a heavenly angel. Now given, on the cover of this book, there is only a two-sided triangle. But nevertheless, you still have the line that connects two very, very important parts of the human body. That would be none other than yours truly, the eyes. If you look at this cover, you see that you can draw a straight line from the eyes of Vanessa across the page of the cover to connect with the one eye of Kobe. And everyone knows that if you try hard enough, you can make love with the eyes.

So anyway, like in the paintings, this is suggesting that Kobe is like Jesus because he is making love not physically but with the eyes. This is the concept of the type of love that my high-school teacher called "origami." There is no higher love than this type of love, which is the type of love that God has for all the sheep of his flock. That's why we have to stick to the thing that was proven in this Great Country of Ours with so many court cases over the past. And that's the idea of innocent until proven guilty. In actuality, there is no proof that Kobe is guilty of adultery, which is one of the seven deadly sins. I mean, give the guy a chance in the "court" of public opinion the way you give him a chance on the basketball "court." After all, he is a world-class athlete. And that is nothing to sneeze at. It's certainly nothing that God would sneeze at. Not that the Almighty sneezes because obviously he doesn't because he isn't human. (I didn't mean any disrespect talking about sneezing and God.) But anyway, as a human being I'm not going to sneeze at him and if you all know what's good for you, you won't either. Because we should all strive our hardest to be like the very, very great painter from olden days and like Jesus and Mary and our President and not like Osama Bin Laden and, in the immortal words of Rodney Dangerfield, give the guy "a little respect."
