Two babies born this weekend are likely to get serious attention from the paparazzi - who can now update us every time Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt and Kingston Rossdale go up another shoe size or burp on one of mommy's designer dresses. I really couldn't care less about this stuff - but hey, if people have to fill those rags they sell at the check-out stands across America, I suppose they might as well be people who are likely to be much, much better looking than average.

and of course, most of the people at the table, if not all, had ridden facing forward in car seats as children of a comparable each, and probably had ridden without carseats at young ages as well, been born to mothers who had the odd cigarette or drink, and so on, since social wisdom regarding best practices hadn't yet reached the profound level of risk aversity to which we're now accustomed.

You can get all the celeb gossip you want via perezhilton.com, idontlikeyouinthatway.com, pinkisthenewblog.com. Oh yes, you see, baltar got me started by linking to gofugyourself in the amusements links, and it's all downhill from there.
