2. You may have heard that the U.S. Navy has surrounded a large group of pirates holding hostages and demanding an enormous ransom. And the Navy says that it is not afraid to fire at Wall Street. However, the pirates may let us all go for less than the $700 billion they’ve been asking for.
3. The House of Representatives voted against the Wall Street bailout today. Some Republicans said they voted against it because their feelings were hurt by a speech from the Speaker of the House. Great. I think maybe you need a nap. And no cookies.
4. Heather Locklear was arrested for drunk driving yesterday, after spending some time in a mental ward. Who would have thought the day would come when it looked like Tommy Lee made the right choice in that break-up. Or is that to far back for all of you to remember?
5. A new study says that people who have had heart problems should be regularly checked for depression, because the depression can lead to more heart problems. But what if the thing that’s depressing you is the reason you had the heart attack in the first place. “My daughter is marrying who?!”
