It's Been A While (and unfortunately I'm still stuck on the Palin theme)

It's been a while since I have posted anything to this blog. I had so much energy invested in the 2008 presidential election, I think that after Barack Obama was finally elected, I was emotionally spent. I'm rested up now though and I'm back......

So, here's what's got me going now (you'll notice I'm still stuck on the Palin theme, at least for the moment):

Last night on the preview to the news, local news anchor Jerry Revish said the following when giving the upcoming news highlights-- "The surprising news from Bristol Palin." Later in the actual broadcast, I learned that the "surprising news" was that Bristol Palin and her boyfriend/baby's daddy split up.

#1 Surprising? Really?? Is this really surprising?

#2 Is this really news?
