Most important news

I have been going over this for a week now. On my birthday two things were important newswise..
Rumsfeld declining and the Britney Spears' divorce. For the last week I guess I have been reading more about the divorce then about american domestic politics. Somehow I feel superficial and not very interested. But on the other hand it feels like the world is with me on these topics...
Well maybe it just was a good week for finally getting rid of some of the most annoying guys in the world. No matter what influence they had on who.
