According to Reality Blurred, the ratings for Skating With Celebrities improved 183 percent over Arrested Development. To some, this might suggest that Americans are morons, but I don’t think that’s true. People watch TV to relax and have a good time, so if they would rather watch a bunch of fading stars compromising their dignity for one last shot at the spotlight than an innovative scripted show, is that really so bad? Life is hard enough without having to prove how smart you are every time you turn on the TV.

Speaking of George Clooney, this week he was nominated for an Oscar for his acting, directing, and his writing. Plus, he’s not fat, can drink again, and is shooting a French coffee commercial almost as we speak!

George Clooney, who’s nominated for three Academy Awards this year, charmed Extra’s Jerry Penacoli in an interview after the nominations were announced early yesterday morning. According to Extra online, George joked about Penacoli’s bright blue tie, saying "The tie is waking me up, I’ll tell you that."

Penacoli was reportedly delighted by Clooney’s playful egging and was overheard after the interview bragging to friends that "while we’re not best, best friends, he would totally say hi to me on the street now if I saw him."

A group of 17 year old girls from Eitorf, Germany stripped for a fund-raising calender in order to raise money for their end of year dance.

The girls came up with the idea after the school announced it did not have any money left to pay for one. Headmaster Werner Teubler, 55, said: "I was not happy when I heard what the girls were doing, but you can’t control what they do in their free time."

On a related note, the school has dropped it’s junior and senior math requirements to provide more free time for its students.
