THIS is “Breaking News”? Give Me A Break – Who CARES?

Paul — Thu, 18 Oct 2007 16:37:51 +0000

I’m signed up to receive email alerts from several of our region’s supposed news outlets, so if something ‘major’ happens, I’ll know about it right away.

Well, I just received such an alert, and the major “Breaking News“ –
Court Suspends Spears’ Visitation Rights

There’s been another turn in Britney Spears’ custody battle following an
emergency hearing.

Oh puh-leeze…In what possible universe is this major breaking news? I mean, who cares? This is nobody’s business except for those involved. Even as ‘celebrity’ news, these people had their 15 minutes of fame several years ago, squandered it, and are so irrelevant that only news organizations, trying to prove how ‘hip’ they are, could even be remotely concerned about this.

At least this accomplished one thing – I now have one less Breaking News email subscription…

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised, but this is just over the top…

200-Light Kneeling Santa

I like how it says, “perfect for balancing the spirit of the holidays.”

That item is out of stock (darn), BUT WAIT…

Never fear, you can still get the Kneeling Santa figurine

Your Best Life Now – The Game

Incredibly, this appears to be a real game! Maybe we should all pitch in and buy Byron this game for Christmas. If you’ve ever read any of Byron’s stuff you’ll know what a fan he is of Mr Osteen.

I actually found out about this from Challies Dot Com, Tim actually has a copy of this game and he gave it a ‘review”/expose’.

Truth really is stranger than fiction…

Stupid coach of the week award

OK, you’ve been a college coach, bounced around a bit, left your last position under less than ideal conditions. You somehow get the break of a lifetime and are hired to be an assistant NFL coach. So it’s probably not the smartest move in the world to drive around your new neighborhood…..NAKED!!!
D’oh!
