As a placeholder for a proper post, here's a video of the Sklar brothers of Cheap Seats fame, doing a bit about the news helicopter from one of the local NYC news stations. It is very late so that's the best I can do for now...
More, you say? Okay...here's a video some of you probably already saw, but I have to say if I could dance ANY better than I do I would've been tempted to do something like this for our wedding. I certainly FELT like doing this!

Cicely--thanks for filling in some Haiku. :) As for the question, of course not. :)
Maybe I've grown cynical in my old age...okay, I've definitely grown cynical in my old age...but when the news broke about the OctoMom being unemployed, and already having the older kids, and the all of them being in vitro fertilization, the first thing I said to my husband was, "I'll bet she's shooting for her own TV show." And the doctors involved were, IMO, beyond irresposible; in fact, my speculation at the time was that they might well be in on the reality show plan, to get advertising use of her presumably forthcoming celebrity, and perhaps a bit of fame for themselves. I don't think any of them were expecting notoriety, instead. Fame/infamy...(cue flashback to The Three Amigos).
Her claims that she just had always wanted a large family never did ring true for me. And since she was not self-supporting before the octos were implanted, I'd say that the kids she already had should have given her a big enough family to worry about, if she had any kind of a concern for the quality of her childrens' lives.
