Almost a whole month...again

Ugh.  I really do mean to write more often.  And I have tons to say...I'm just lazy.  That's it.  No other excuses come to mind.

But I saw a really interesting article on cnn.com today.  Here's the link:

http://afghanistan.blogs.cnn.com/2011/03/10/viral-post-pits-coverage-of-sheen-fallen-soldiers/

The article talks about the viral status going around about how while we've all been talking about Charlie Sheen, US soldiers have been dying.  The status goes on to list 4 of the fallen soldiers.

The thing is, that while I thought this viral status was thought provoking, I didn't think it was accurate.  Remember the one about Lindsay Lohan a few months ago (I actually shuddered a little bit just typing her name)?  I just assumed that both of them were along the lines of the spam email you'd get from some well meaning person about the guy who hides under your car and slashes your Achilles tendon - and then kills you.  Basically, something to think about.

Turns out - it's real.  Those four men listed actually gave their lives while I was posting quizzes about which crazy person said which crazy thing (Charlie Sheen vs Moammar Gadhafi - very funny).  So, today I'd like to thank those four men and their families - and the others you'll learn about in the article who weren't listed in the status.

I'm not really sure what else I'm trying to say.  Maybe it's this:  Charlie Sheen is crazy and a completely spoiled turd.  We shouldn't waste any more time, money or energy on him.  There are better things to do.  More important things to think about.
