Now we hear Rod Blagojevich will read the "Top Ten" list on Dave Letterman's show Wednesday night.
The former governor is "thrilled," said his spokesman, Glenn Selig, who then rattled off a list of other famous people who recently have read the Top Ten list: "Barbara Walters, Olympic gold medal skater Evan Lysacek and Britney Spears."
To repeat: Barbara Walters, Evan Lysacek, Britney Spears and ... Rod Blogojevich.
This reminds me of the logic test in which you are presented with several items and asked, "Which does not belong?"

I don't know the answer, but I know that Britney has managed to make herself famous again after falling so far from grace. I wonder how that happened. I'm hoping that biographer Christopher Heard will explain. I look forward to reading his new book "Britney Spears: Little Girl Lost". Check it out on Amazon.
I don't know if the former Governor doesn't belong. He's definitely going through some "interesting" times, but I'm sure the rest have gone through some things in their time as well--just haven't been outed.
The ex-Governor may be guilty of the crimes he's being accused of--who knows--and he's swears an awful lot, but I have a feeling he helped the state of Illinois during his time in office. The focus just fell on him.
