April 26, 2007: Drinking the Kool Aid

This is really scary, but I am starting to think there's some higher purpose, some divine intervention, calling forth these celebrity hurricanes so we can heal our wounds as a nation.

• Imus and Hip-Hoppers: racism, sexism, hatin'
  
• Alec Baldwin: parental alienation
• Isaiah Washington, Ann Coulter, and a couple of sports stars: homophobia and gay slurs
• Bill O'Reilly Vs. Geraldo Rivera: illegal aliens and drunk driving
  
• Richard Gere: wanton kissing in Sodom&Bollywood
  
• Hugh Grant: celebrity torture by paparazzi resulting in hurled baked-beans
  

Should I immediately cancel my subscriptions to all media? Direct TV, OK!, US...all of it? Do I need a parental blocker for the Internet, too? Just like they have adult diapers modeled after the traditional ones for babies, maybe there should be adult Web blockers that keep you from wasting time on ridiculous celebri-spiraling.
