for the outside the US readers here, let me try and explain the Palins

Alaska, one of our states, elected a woman named Sarah Palin as govenor. She quit to make money. She has a daughter, Bristol, who got pregnant and had a child Tripp who the x-governor used to tote around at book signings as 1. Bristol was too old to pick up and tote around and 2. she was in something like 7th grade anyway and had homework.  I digress.

Bristol's SO was a clod named Levi who split from this charming household because he had no privacy and then posed nude for some wierd magazine that paid him a lot of money. Now Bristol and Levi are back together. Engaged to be married and out drumming up money for their honeymoon. One of their great ideas is a "reality show" for TV that they are shopping around.  You can read a blurb here.  My favorite quote is about what that "show" would have as subject matter:

 ...some of the ideas involve the couple AND their two-year-old son, Tripp.

We're told the leading concept involves all three people -- and will focus on "parenting issues."

Is that all clear to everyone now - the Palin stuff I mean?  I'm not making any of this up. In fact you can't make it up.
