BURNING QUESTION(S) OF THE MONTH


Who the hell are Jon and Kate Gosselin, and why do I keep running into stories about them? Why should I care that their marriage is over (according to Kate, according to MSN.com's TV News)? Why does anyone care? It's one thing to sit on the edge of your couch drooling over the latest scenes from a celebrity marriage as featured in Us Weekly, People and In Touch -- frankly, I'm infinitely more interested in "Winona Ryder: Her Life Now" -- but when we become addicted to the continuing soap operas of reality stars (and I'm presuming that's what Jon and Kate, who always seems to get top billing on magazine covers, are), society as we know it is surely on its last broken leg.

Or maybe, like Kate, I'm just mean.
