What's the Insider gonna talk about now????? Oh her still. I hope they find out who the baby daddy is now.

pretty pathetic how it's 'breaking news' on yahoo's home page. The only times I saw yahoo use 'breaking news' was during the tsunami and hurricane katrina. Kinda pisses on the 4 marines who died 3 news stories down from her. At least they might have died believing they were fighting for something. She died because she sucked at life.

Let the conspiracy theories begin.

squeezle and I just watched an odd report yesterday about the conspiracy surrounding the death of her son Daniel. Who knows what kind of craziness is going on. I blame Russian spies.

yeah, and we're going to break into our normal news to talk about it. we are a texas news and she's from here, but jeeeeeeese. and I talked to a friend of mine who works at the ABC station in Austin, they're leading the 5:00 newscast with that story.

...hired by her step children.

[monet2u]

come on people, this is actually pretty big news since we all know (very well) her life story. she's entwined in american culture, this is just one more saga to her story, which is probably not over yet...seeing as that new baby is still in question.

If you've seen Children of Men you can guess which scene I immediately thought of. I don't think I could tell my boss with a straight face that I am so emotionally affected by this news that I need to go home for the day.

we don't all know it... i think its sad that that people feel like they are entwined in the lives of all these pseudo-celebrities. its one thing to feel sad when robert altman dies -- he actually contributed something to the world. i'm not saying it doesnt matter that she died, because she's a person so it matters; but its ridiculous to feel like you've "lost" something unless you actually knew her. or, i guess, unless you really appreciated those trim spa ads?

[Dalya]

p.s. i bet trim spa caused her death!

well by "know", I was implying "heard". She's pretty much become part of the american culture, like it or not. Contributions are subjective I suppose; as Robert Altman hasn't done a thing to imprint on me. Neither has Nicole for that matter. I'm just trying to make a point that she's big news because she's been in the news lots and lots and lots. Let's face it America on the whole loves a celeb, be it A, B, or C list.

robert altman invented the multi-track soundrecording process which has been used in nearly every movie since the mid 70s, so if you've seen a movie since then that you liked, he affected you.

thats what i mean. someone intelligent can do something creative or invent something important and not be remembered for it, but anna nicole smith is famous. and paris hilton. pathetic.
