Perhaps it's my fault. I probably selected "entertainment" as one of my interests on Yahoo (along with ACTUAL news) and now "My Yahoo" thinks I am as concerned about Tiger Woods marriage as I am about the collapse of the Haitian presidential palace. That's the trouble with the computer. Lots of info - no common sense. It's safe to say that when there has been a catastrophic event in the last 24 hours, keep the entertainment "news" under wraps for the rest of the day. Save it for Entertainment Tonight or TMZ. Let some actual news come through. It may concern someone that Simon is leaving it to Randy after this season, but probably not someone who has relatives in Haiti.
That said, I thought I'd mention the new phone books actually DID come yesterday. And I yelled "The new phone books are here, the new phone books are here!" just like I always do and then promptly tossed them into the recycle bin. As sad as it may be, I haven't looked in a phone book in years. I do it all on the computer now. But luckily I still get the newspaper - two even! So I can report that while the front page was appropriately dominated by the terrible news from Haiti, Simon Cowell's employment plans did not make the page. However, this being L.A., Conan's job situation did. In a state where movie stars routinely become governors, I suppose it's the best we can hope for.
