A Few Talking Points
Since this week is normally a time to step back and enjoy the company of friends and family, blogging is way down on my list of activities. So, I’ll once again resort to the old, reliable stand-by … bullet points.

Are You Really Paying Attention?
Maybe instead of being so interested in the color of Brad Pitt’s bowel movement or whether Brittany Spears is gonna squeeze out her second puppy in Africa … maybe we all should be a little more worried about stories like this one.
