Penny to get “Plutoed” Department:
There’s a move afoot to deep-six the noble penny from our currency. One wonders what will happen to all the penny-jars across the land.
GM Buying Chrysler??? Department:
Two of the major US automakers have talked about joint ventures on such things as a new SUV. Hard on the heels of that news, Chrysler announced massive “restructuring” (read lay-offs). Now the rumour-mill heats up with talk of GM making a bid to buy at least part of the struggling giant. Inquiring Minds wonder why the so-called Big-Three don’t just make better cars? It can be done. Can you say “Honda” . . . or “Toyota”?
Are YOU the Father? Department:
Seven, and counting. That’s the latest number of men claiming to be the father of Anna Nicole Smith’s child. Lawyers and Larry King score big-time in the peculiar events surrounding the death of the nice lady. In a side-bar to this bizarre circumstance, your Intrepid Reporter heard a statememt from a lad who calls himself a journalist that sets a new low in credibility: “A source of mine said he’d talked to someone, who heard from a person close to the family, that a friend told him . . . etc etc.”
Hairless-Britney Department:
Once again a member of the Famous-for-being-famous crowd gets press for another non-event. Seems Britney appeared at a tatoo parlour sporting a new image: Bald. Does anyone really care?
On a Personal Note Department:
There is a major project going on here at the moment. The details don’t matter, but what does is that some really good people have rallied to the cause of your Intrepid Reporter.
Dan, Bob W, Lee, Mark, Susan, Linda, Rick, Dawn, Terry, Lina, Erin, Graham, Jacqui, Bob K. Hazel, Dick and Vi, John, Jeff, Karen. To all of you, I say a heartfelt ThankYou. Not only for the practical help you provided so willingly, but also for the moral support during a tough time for this fellow-traveller. May good things happen for all of you.
