Mystery of the year

For a while now the media have been making speculation after speculation over the biological father of Michael Jackson's children. While the identity/identities may be the best kept secret in America, I have to admit I just don't care, though I got a kick out of hearing that Macaulay Culkin made the list of contenders. Because of the sudden fascination with these kids, everything they do makes the news. For example, today there was a story on "Today" about Paris getting a haircut in Vegas. However, the "weird" aspect of the story was that her chaperon asked for all the hair, presumably to remove any trace of DNA. I think my favorite part was listening to the Vegas reporter who happened to observe all this excitement. I bet her parents are so proud she made "Today." I, on the other hand, am planning on watching something other than "Today" tomorrow in the hope that I might actually be informed about something of consequence.
