Why Is It?

Lately i feel as though everyone has been so caught up in TMZ, People magazine and younger Spears' new baby that we push out the important things. As though no ones noticed, floods that have been raging in the midwest have pretty much ruined our whole growing season. The massive earthquakes in China which is a cause of major disease spreading in the region that was hit seemed to have came and gone as quick as a flash as well. And although its getting more attention than it was, the huge climate change still isn't being tackled quite as fully as we all could be. (And on that subject, dare i venture that even our changes to be more environmentally efficient are more because we have to and we're melting away rather than we are very concerned and choose too. Don't get me wrong here folks, i give credit to the many people that really are concerned, because they are indeed out there.) True... this entry was mostly to vent my confusion on how we can care so much about "brangelina's" new baby pictures than other matters of the world that seem to slip away with a brief news headline or 2. Now don't get me wrong, its perfectly fine to indulge in Extra every now and again, but shouldn't we put down the People mag and pick up the Times every once in a while?
