These are the stories that I've paid attention to the most recently:
Elmo: Puppeteer has supposed underaged relationship with another guy, guy comes forward with accusations, guy conveniently recants previous claim after puppeteer takes a leave of absence. Typical hollywood drama, right? Wrong. Anything involving puppets and the sexual orientation of their voices is questionable at best, but this is just weird. I actually feel bad for Elmo, of all people...
Kevin McHale: The Houston Rockets basketball coach's daughter recently died at the age of 22, (a huge wake-up call for those of us who are also 22, like ME). I also saw on the news this morning that his daughter, Sasha, had Lupus, (again, like ME), so that was really interesting to see. I was watching with my dad and we both looked at each other when the reporter said that she had been fighting Lupus for some time. It really makes you think about what you take for granted and what you have to take seriously in life.
Black Friday: Who would've thought that extending hours into Thanksgiving for all those eager beavers out there would actually end up hurting sales on Black Friday, the day that's set aside for trampling people at Walmart to get that 39" television. In fact, I knew a lot of people who actually went out Thanksgiving night to shop and said it was a lot easier Black Friday to get around. I wonder when people will realize that this could end up being EVERY DAY of our LIVES eventually, if we keep this shit up. I mean really, Thanksgiving is one of the only days during the year some people actually see their families, and now we have to worry about big deals and other crap ruining that too?
