Kodak Moments

As much news as there is in the world, every news site and every morning news show reported on the breakup of Jon and Kate of Jon & Kate Plus Eight fame. Until earlier this year, I'd never heard of them. For the past 93 weeks (or maybe the last 7 or so), they've been on the cover of Us Magazine. Their claim to fame? Their giving birth to one set of twins and one set of sextuplets (hence the "eight") and their willingness to allow TV cameras into their lives. EdTV for real. Now they're divorcing.

What may have been a good idea at first--a professional album ofthe children's early lives--the fun, the chaos, the challenges, and the triumphs-- far more complete than what most kids will ever have, will now be the proof of what used to be and how it all ended on the junk heap of the divorce court.
