No surprise here, no wonder here, no real talent here either, but Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson have separated… a big frickin’ BOO HOO baby. 
This news seems to have got you … er ..cough … rather more than usually aroused, Joseph. 
Who are they? Anybody in important?

Yes, I am moved to near lacrimation… NOT.
Aroused? As in maybe I got a shot at Jessica aroused? Hmmmmmmmm… nope, I got a keeper right here at home, who is equally beautiful, blonde AND intelligent… save for one tiny little bad judgement call… me. 
The only Jessica Simpson I’ve heard of is a singer married to the great English guitarist Martin Simpson. I don’t think she’ll be available any time soon.
Sooner than you think…
The great Simpson was back here in his hometown recently with new wife and baby.
He even had a few nice baby songs which he’d written.
He’s turning into Tom Paxton.
Slan,
D. 
I’m never going to get the hang of this gossip thing.
Has Brian Jones left the Stones yet?
I hate to be the one to break this to ya’, Brian’s… well… ummm… he’s dead. 
I know THAT. But has he left the Stones yet?
No hes still in the stones but he was murdered!
new movie:
Well, I don’t think they were too important. I googled them. It sounds like they were singers, then they got married and started their own reality show called Newlyweds, then she got more famous than he did because she starred in The Dukes of Hazzard movie and now it’s over.
I must say, Mark, I am rather shocked that a librarian wouldn’t be on top of current events such as these.

Nick and Jessica announce their separation.
After months of denying the rumors, Newlyweds stars Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson have announced that they are going their separate ways.
“After three years of marriage, and careful thought and consideration, we have decided to part ways,” they said in a statement released Wednesday, Nov. 23.
“This is the mutual decision of two people with an enormous amount of respect and admiration for each other. We hope that you respect our privacy during this difficult time.”
Nick and Jessica, who are both pop singers, tied the knot in October, 2002. After their wedding, they signed up for their own reality show, “Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica.” The MTV series was an instant hit, sending Nick and Jessica from the pop star C-list to the Hollywood A-list.
But while they both found new fame and fortune, it seemed that Nick was in Jessica’s shadow after the show took off. Jessica released a hit album, landed numerous endorsement deals, started her own beauty products line, and starred as Daisy Duke in the movie The Dukes of Hazzard. While she was filming The Dukes of Hazzard, there were reports that Jessica had an affair with her costar Johnny Knoxville. Both stars have denied the rumor.
Rumors weren’t the only problems that came along with Nick and Jessica’s success. Jessica’s busy schedule resulted in the couple having less time to spend together. By the fourth and final season of “Newlyweds,” fans could see how the Nick and Jessica’s marriage had changed since the show’s first season, when they were two low profile stars in love.
This isn’ very nice, but…does he really look like an intelligent person? He looks like he’s doing what someone is telling him to do. Poor dude.
so…jessica’s single…eh..?
Go get her dude!
Does she really look like someone you would want in your life? She looks scary to me! 
very scary.
Just remember, behind those warm and smoky brown eyes, blinding smile and gently cleft chin… beats the heart of a total airhead.
She made an indignant and heartfelt statement something to the effect that she refused to eat buffalo wings because she really liked buffalo, and thought it was a cruel thing.
I think she has multiple personalities. That could be hard to deal with.
Hold your horses, amar…
you might as well go after a hot air balloon; jessica simpson and the balloon are both vessels of massive ammounts of hot air, but the hot air balloon can take you places you’ve never been before and can actually rise above the ground.
Better yet, you could go after a helium balloon; helium rises faster than air.
Now, amar, you really need to trust my opinion here. I am probably one of the few chiffers that has actually met jessica simpson. I met her in January while I was putting overtime in guarding at the Sundance Film Festival…she has to be the worlds most air-headded human being alive(I’d say there are even betting odds that she’s not even human, she’s probably some droid that has a critical malfunction. That’s the only way I can explain someone so ditzy. She’s probably something Wallace and Grommett cooked up). I bet there are scores of bodyguards around her at all times just to keep her from winning a Darwin award.
Sad, but I believe this to be true.
hey- don’t pick on Nick - he’s a home town boy - and I know for a fact he actually DID graduate from high school!!
