I am a huge fan of reading the news on CNN.com daily thats why it always angers me when stupid news like.."Lindsay Lohan gets her probation revoked and Paris Hilton admits the cocaine found inside her purse last month was indeed hers" make it to the top most watched news. Why is it that people are so interested in others lives? Particularly celebrities..it seems the ever-growing reality tv shows can't end our hunger for more gossip, more stories, more drama, and we become less and less interested in what goes on in our environment. For example I found the following news extremely interesting mostly because of the captivating image it had, which makes it seem almost fake..like it was all set up?
Thousands of belly-up fish were discovered in the Bayou Chaland area of Louisiana. I don't know much about fish except they need oxygen to survive and apparently there is a time of the year in particular were the oxygen is low called "dead-zone" that forms off the Gulf. The Gulf oil spill expanded this dead zone when oil-eating bacteria gobbled up more oxygen than usual. Speaking of which...I don't think ANYONE has a right to point their finger to BP. I've never blamed them for what happened because it was an accident it could have happened to anyone. People are so greedy and can never have enough oil, look at the society we live in...our needs make us dig deeper and deeper everytime, but when something like this happens its easy to blame the company. I honestly feel bad for them and I believe they are doing everything they can, it is us to blame for the oil spill, not them...they are just trying to satisfy this society's endless needs.
