Why is it that CNN has to show a picture of Angelina Jolie’s baby every 30 minutes? great, they had a kid. so did a bunch of other people. How is this newsworthy? how is this HEADLINE newsworthy?

I can only hope that one of these days people of substance will be treated with the same awe that media and sports stars are today… since teachers, scientists, etc are the ones really making a difference. Every time someone calls a football star their “hero”, a firefighter somewhere is being robbed out of that appreciation.

    I really liked the way CNN broke into election coverage to announce Spears’ divorce. That was so cool I almost puked.

    I wholeheartedly agree with every word here.

    last year angelina jolie made over ten million dollars just by showing up on a movie screen and being hot.

    last month my friend efrian, an english teacher trying to teach a bunch of ghetto springfield kids that you really can do things with your life that aren’t selling drugs, had to cancel his cable so he could pay his electric bill.

    funny ol’ world.

      written in my journal on 11/30/05:

      “Take celebrities’ money and give it to public school teachers nationwide. right? that would solve teachers’ salary woes once and for all.”

      I see nothing wrong with the passage of such a law. =P
