"Mel Gibson's wife files for divorce after 28 years"

And I should care? How does this affect my life? Or my business?

It's an amazing phenomenon that we live in a celebrity-obsessed society. If it's not Mel Gibson, then it's Paris Hilton or that Lindsey girl or Britney or Miley (wait till she outgrows Hannah Montana - the paparazzi will have a field day then).

In the meantime, unemployment is rising, the housing market has imploded, and the financial markets are in perpetual turmoil. The planet is in flames while the U.S. media fiddle.
