Please don't mention the Middle East to me, or any other serious issue.
I've attached myself to the polygamist compound story and cannot be dragged away from it. It's lurid and absurd and distortional, and the media are licking it off the floor. It's news the way I like it.

So unless you have an Anna Nicole update, or something on Scott Peterson or OJ, do NOT begin a discussion with me on any serious issue such as the economy or U.S. foreign policy.

4. O god, I forgot Brittany. She was on a bunch of the tabloids in the
grocery store checkout line yesterday, too.

2. Surprisingly, this joke of a hearing is on MSNBC at the moment; for
how much longer, I don't know. Probably when people start telling this dog and pony show they are full of poop, you'll get your wish.

3. alert: Anna Nicole's child and father will be at the KY Derby, where
the great love story began. Fan mags are bidding on rights even as we write. :woohoo: :hi:

5. There was OJ news today. Funny you mentioned it
Some guy who got immunity to roll over on him has also written a book with the 'real story'. He's been on teevee hawking it.

I'm really sorry you missed it. You'd have loved it.

10. She's in my basement -- with Jim Morrison and Elvis.
They're reasonably quiet.

I keep them well-nourished.
