Matthew McConaughey's Mum Recalls The Time His Father Expired Inside Her
Posted by Seth at 2:50 AM on August 28, 2008
Behind every great man is a great mom—and no one knows that more than Tropic Thunder star Matthew McConaughey, who appears to have chosen a perfectly lovely one to bear him a son, suitable for toting to red carpet events and John Mellencamp concerts in a Coleman beer cooler. But what of McConaughey himself? To whom can we attribute his uncompromisingly freewheeling spirit, his Southern sophistication, and, yes, his undeniable sexual ferocity? To put it a little more floridly: Who planted little Matthew's placenta beneath a tree, and tended to it lovingly until it bore fruit? We now have an answer:
In her new book, I Amaze Myself! (iamazemyself.com), Kay McConaughey dishes on everything from her son Matthew's conception to how her husband died in a compromising position with her!
"On Monday mornings, he and I often said goodbye by making love," Kay says exclusively in the latest issue of Us Weekly. "But one day, all of a sudden, it just happened.
"I knew that something was wrong, because I didn't hear anything from him. Just nothing," she says. "But it was just the best way to go!"
"I knew that something was wrong, because I didn't hear anything from him. Just nothing," she says. "But it was just the best way to go!"
And when her man couldn't be revived, she made sure he was taken from the house in the buff.
"I was just so proud to show off my big old Jim McConaughey -- and his gift," she says.
Needless to say, Kay amazes us too. At last we have a clue as to where this former Sexiest Man Alive developed his taste for screwball, fuck-til-we-plotz comedy that has come to define the Matthew McConaughey sensibility. Having learned now of the bittersweet passing of his own father—who died, yes, but did it doing what he loves best—we think it may be time to revisit his entire romcom filmography again, whereupon frothy concoctions like Failure to Launch and How to Lose a Guy in 10 Lays will begin to take on all-new levels of deeply personal significance.

I'm sure the EMS guys were very appreciative of the built-in carry handle Flagpole Jim left them, to lift him up on the stretcher.

Must have been hard for the ambulance attendants to maneuver Big dead Jim past all of their hand-painted cement lawn ornaments and silhouette cowboys.

Maybe Matty's love for tender cutlets of beef is the result of being nursed at a leathery teat.

If Clerks taught us anything it's that you can die with an erection...so the question is not whether Big Jim finished (we know he did) but whether Kay got her last taste of what the French call the "little death."

Well, the pork rind didn't fall too far off from the plastic covered recliner.

Scientific proof that Bat Shit Crazy IS genetic. (And possibly genital.)

Look, I don't want to be a party pooper here but when my dog died it crapped all over the place. I didn't call it a gift though.

This is surreal enough to seem more appropriate for an old lady skit on SNL, starring either Molly Shannon or Kristen Wiig.

Ahhhh..... I wish she didn't write that. I don't think I would like it if my mommy wrote that in a book.

When someone exclaims you're going to have the best sex you've ever had in your life,
you don't imagine that excluding other samplings...at least for comparisons sake.
