Hot New Toy Of The Season

Well the hottest toy since the Cabbage Patch Kids hit the stores in short supply, just in time for the holidays. The Zhu Zhu is a robotic hamster that was originally called a 'Go Go Pet' when it was first created by a local St. Louis company called Cepia LLC. When the toys went national they changed their name to Zhu Zhu Pets. In their early stages of sale there were reports that the toy was made from hazardous metals, but since then have stomped out all concerns and has a clean bill of health from Consumer Health and Safety. The toys are found at big box stores like Toys-R-Us and Wal-mart. Toys-R-Us already sold 1 million of the toys weeks before Christmas and each store was to be getting about 400 each before the holidays. Wal-Mart was supposed to be getting 20-60 toys per store per day before the holidays. Now with the Christmas weekend underway it is said that if you havent gotten this hot new toy by now, you will be waiting until well after Christmas.

Happy Holidays Everyone!!

Well it is hard to believe but the Holidays are quickly approaching.

As of Friday night I feel pretty prepared, but as it gets closer to Christmas I become full of doubt. Maybe some of you share in the same stress... Did I get them the right gift? Should I get them something more? Will I be able to make to everyones' house this year? When should I make my last batch of cookies? What do I make for dinner and how can I get the house cleaned in time for the In-laws visit? You know the usual holiday stresses.

But with all the chaos of the Holidays, I have a hard time getting caught up in it, because I try to remind myself... it's not about the presents. Family is my favorite part of the season, and remembering what the season is really all about.

With that I wish you all Happy Holidays! Enjoy your time with the family and have fun!

Just In Time For Christmas... The Divorce Is Final.

Well it's official... after 10 years of marriage and 8 children, the divorce between Jon and Kate Gosselin is final. The divorce was filed back in June while filming the last of their TLC TV show 'Jon and Kate Plus Eight'. It sounds as though the division of assets went rather well, in comparison to how nasty they have been to each other lately. Kate will get their house in Penn and be primary caretaker of the eight children. As far as custody goes, they were able to work out their own schedule. However when it comes to their finances, they left the court to decide who gets what.

Tom Brady and Gisele Have Baby Boy

Ochocinco To Change Name Again?

Newly re-named pro football player for the Bengals Chad Ochocinco may be making another new name change. After an episode on Ustream Ochocinco announced he may try to change his name to 'Hachi-Go'. Apparently Chad has a bunch of fans from Japan and they suggested that he should re-name himself to Hachi-Go, which is Japanese for 8-5.

Ok the change from Johnson to Ochocinco was odd yet kinda neat.... it made him standout, but how many times does he think he needs to do this? If this is a theme then we are in for a long haul of name changes since there is like a billion different ways to say 8-5. The poor makers of his jerseys... they'll never be able to keep up. Stop with the name changes and just play the game.

Jackass Star Gets a Cleaner Record

Steve-O from the Movie/T.V. show "Jackass" get his police record cleaned up just a bit for being sober. After a felony cocaine arrest in 2008 Steve-O has remained sober for the last 18 months. After stopping by the courthouse to prove his sobriety, the judge was so impressed that he dropped the cocaine possession (felony) and erased the arrest from his record. Steve-O says he's never been happier now that he is sober.

Ok, it is a great thing that he has kept sober for this long... but... he still broke the law... he was busted red-handed! How can that just be erased? If he wasn't a celebrity would that have happened? I doubt that would happen to any blue collar person. What is up with celebrity favoritism? Between Steve-O and Adrain Peterson, looks like celebs can get away with just about anything.
