Just my own little protest

[wombat2u2004]

I am refusing, for the foreseeable future, to click on any story about Paris Hilton.

Why, with (just for a few examples)
A war currently ongoing
Maimed physically, mentally or both veterans returning therefrom
An immigration bill still pending and millions of people waiting for its results
Darfur
An 8-year-old murdered in Boston
The goings on in Indonesia, etc.

she gets to be the lead story of the day is simply beyond my comprehension, and I will NOT participate. Because, frankly, I do not care.

Just saying ....

Yep...I know what you mean....stuff like that always gets the front page.

That is what I have been thinking through her whole "ordeal". I simply cannot stand when I see any star like Lindsey Lohan and Paris Hilton crap as the top story and after they tell you something going on in Iraq like a bombing or people dying. I always looked stunned and it seems to me to simply be a VERY cruel joke! I can tell you now I won't be staying at a Hilton or clicking on any stories involving her in some way!

Karen I couldn't agree with you more. Larry King is supposed to have her on tonight I think it is. What a waste of air time. At least I know what I won't be watching.

Not to hijack...but one of the law people involved said she did MORE time than an average person would have for the same thing, because of her being a celebrity.

And she is on probation til March 2009...I am sure they will keep an eye on her, and they have friends with the media.

I agree it doesn't deserve headlines, there's enough that needs our attention and prayers!

During WWII - that's when all those frothy films were made and the star system really took hold...to distract us homebodies from the war. I think it's time for that to change...the world has grown up a bit more since then.

I totally agree.. I cant stand to hear her name..

Rastus Gem says my ears are closed to any words about that person..



I also say read my pillow if you want to pursue that person's name..

Paris who?????

Good one!!

Karen, I'm glad to say I'm not in the least interested in her! But I guess some people don't have anything else to do, than read celebrity gossip.

[Catty1]

Randi, I guess there's a large section of the human race that needs Stories with Lots of Pictures. The fewer words, the better.....

I'd rather read about Rastus Gem and his stuffed Bite Me toy, thank you very much.
