On this weeks edition of People magazine Clay Aiken, who just had a baby with his 50-year-old best friend thanks to in vitro fertilization, announced his gayness to the entire world. Amazingly, there were still a few folks who were unaware of this. Next weeks planned cover: a picture of Jesse Jackson and the words “Yes, I hate white people.”
Seriously, who didn't see this one a mile away?
It is starting to look very bleak for the once-mighty Vols football team this season. Already 1-2, they now look forward to away games at Auburn (ranked #15), Georgia (#3), South Carolina, and Vanderbilt (#21), and a home game against Alabama (#8). Optimistically, they might be able to squeak out a 5-7 record. It sure doesn’t look like we brought any good luck with us here to Knoxville.
Jarom and Alixa received a new calling in church this week. They will be teaching 6 year-olds in primary. Alixa is more thrilled than Jarom about it, but that is probably about as surprising as the Aiken news. It will get them out of Relief Society/Priesthood each week and give them a reason to have goldfish in church, so it should be a good time.
Sadly, Alixa injured herself this week. She was playing tennis with Jarom when she heard something in her foot pop. It doesn’t hurt unless she puts weight on it, which is sort of a good thing. She is currently uninsured, so she is going to wait another day or two before deciding if she needs medical attention. This is why you shouldn’t have feet. It is just more potential problems.
I think the real reason she got hurt is the bad karma that she has been accumulating as a result of her new found love of country music. A few days ago Jarom came home to her singing something about getting back to her roots, something something look at them boots…it isn’t good. Jarom had sensed that this would happen, but he never expected it to sink in this quickly. You should all be happy to know that he continues to resist and shows no signs of giving in.
I guess not everything about country culture is bad
For anyone interested, the answer to last weeks quiz is Lance Armstrong, who was born Lance Gunderson. Quite an upgrade, at least from a marketing standpoint. I am certain LiveDerson bracelets would not have been nearly as popular.

Mitch, I have been saying that Clay was gay since 2003 the year he was on American Idol, about time he came out and told the truth. I was going to post something on my blog about it, but you beat me too it.
I didn't see that coming from a mile away. I have defended Clay for years! I was mad that Dave and Jeremy and all the other haters could say "told you so!"
