According to the Associated Press, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are now married.
Just why should I care?
Ho Hum, yawn. Am I the only person who doesn’t give rat’s behind about anything Tom Cruise?
AP says: “BRACCIANO, Italy - Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes exchanged vows Saturday in a lavish, star-studded wedding celebrated in a fairy-tale setting: a glowing 15th-century castle in this medieval lakeside town…”
Although Ben Stein has said it better than me, (see “20050122 Ben Stein's Last Column,”) my feelings remain as I wrote several years ago; “I always felt such Hollywood and sports hero worship sent the wrong message to our children and demonstrated a wrong set of values for our community. My heroes have always been teachers, soldiers, police officers, fire fighters and public servants.” (20011111 On Veterans Day and Heroes)

Unfortunately, in my job, I have to read most stories that come across the wire, so had to suffer through this one ... My favorite detail: Both Mrs. Cruise and that poor little baby wore matching outfits (from some fashion designer whose name I could never care to remember) ... isn't that just fascinating? I know I felt smarter just from reading it .. sheesh
