Today's Big News

And now for the really important news of the day.

We finally know the identity of Anna Nicole's baby. It's not the lawyer (surprise, surprise). Now we just have to sit through the custody hearings.

The other news is - Imus. I really didn't even know he was still on the air. What he said was offensive, but it would have gone unnoticed if the media hadn't made a big deal of it. From some reports I've heard, he's been offensive since he's been on the air. I've always thought he appealed to the lower class of listener.

He has apologized for his words, and that's all they really were - words, and he has been suspended for two weeks. Al Sharpton has insisted that he be fired. I'm not defending Imus, I really don't care what happens to him. All parties involved have gotten a lot of publicity out of all this. I'm sure there will be books written.

Why should he be fired, after all, he never falsely accused anyone of kidnapping and rape.

Dear Mom,

Imus's comment referred to the Rutgers girl's team as Nappy Ho's. I agree that it's very offensive. However, I wonder why all these Rappers are allowed to sing about Ho's all day and nobody gets offended. I guess Imus learned that term from the Rappers. And so it goes

P.S. The fancy word verification is just too hard to decipher. Use the Palmer method!!!
