Anna Nicole Smith is dead.

We have soldiers and civilians dying in Iraq and Afghanistan everyday. We have people starving everywhere. We have women and children being sold to human traffickers (not to mention my favorite, being raped legally in various countries of the Middle East). We have all sorts of shit going down in Darfur. We still don’t have cures for AIDS or cancer. We have skyrocketing rates of autism in America, most notably in New Jersey. We have global warming and an oil supply that won’t last more than forty years–tops. We have the existence of shows like My Super Sweet Sixteen.

And this “tragedy” is the big, breaking story on the evening news?

God forgive me, but I have more important things to worry about.
Hopefully you do, too.
