Worst Week Ever

Show me a week where celebrity news overruns every aspect of the public media, and I'll show you the worst week ever.

1. No matter what Lindsey says, even if it's not her cocaine, IT'S STILL COCAINE. At least she's being original, that's an excuse the cops have never heard.
2. Some athletes (including Deon Sanders) have come out in defense of Michael Vick. No amount of rationalization in the world can save Vick and Lohan from jail time, and if they are, then what is this faux legal system we're hiding behind?
3. Sunni, Shiite and Kurds finally together as Iraqis for a soccer match...and after game gunfire kills and wounds dozens.
4. And an ironic story, but not the good kind of "politician says impeach Clinton while buying hookers" ironic. Boise State University football player Ian Johnson's wedding was this Saturday. The wedding gifts are unwrapped, the cake is all eaten and the thank you notes and death threats are in the mail. The problem with the wedding was that some in Idaho seem to think it's the 1800's (and that racism was justified at all) because Johnson married a white woman. The irony? Guess who's going to still cheer him on when Boise needs another touchdown. Mr. John Q. Redneck, that's who.
5. Those who complain that the Harry Potter books had become darker and more cynical as they progressed. Look around you. That's life.
