breaking news

Miei cari, sometimes in the morning I go running in the gym in the hotel and watch tv in the meantime. I therefore had a chance to see what are the biggest news here in the US.
First of all, there is a tendency to blame anything that happens in Iraq or anywhere else in the world on Iran. Some days ago the biggest news was that secret services figured out that Iran is giving artillery to the insurgents in Iraq. Really?? Shit, I thought they got them from Mary Poppins... Let me tell you, this is actually scary, I hope it's not a strategy to make the public used to the idea that we should start a war on Iran as well, given the great success we are having in Iraq. Hopefully it's unlikely that they will try to make a mess in Iran as well: compared to 1 year ago, the news reports on the Iraq war are much less exultant and optimistic, they are openly talking about dead soldiers and the reactions of their families. Hope is our last resort.
Apart from this non-essential piece of information, TV channels are constantly broadcasting much more important news:
- who is the father of Anna Nicole Smith's daughter, i.e. who is going to get all the money she left? Contendants are: her lawyer, a photographer, a German "prince" (he bought the title some time ago) who is actually married to TzaTza Gabor, another guy who apparently had been sexually harrassed by her and her bodyguard. Latest news is that her sister says the Anna Nicole froze the semen of her 80-something year old billionaire husband and got pregnant with that. The mistery continues...
- why did Britney Spears shave her hair and is now bald?
- what is happening with Lindslay Lohan? You might wonder: who the hell is Lindsay Lohan? That's the same question I had, and so far haven't figured out a proper answer, apart from the fact that this girl is trying to be the American brunette version of Kate Moss, unfortunately missing her dressing sense and the toxic&bad&rock&rollllbaaaaaabeeee boyfriend.
This leaves me anxiously waiting for Paris Hilton to come back and detonate this crappy competition. What will she invent this time? She has already made the crappy porn movie, had all sort of crappy boyfriends, wore all sort of crappy clothes... As the Led Zeppellin used to say, ooooohhhhh it makes me wonder.
