2010: Scandal, Divorce, Death

The year is winding down. Only a couple more days until next year.

2010 came and went. I celebrated the new year at a small party. The moment of truth (12:00 a.m.) passed rapidly and before I knew it, I woke up and it was 12:00 p.m. on Jan. 1, 2010. Twelve hours of the brand new year went by as quick as lightning, now it's Dec. 30.

2010 was filled with scandal, divorce and death.

Scandal:
  • Tiger Woods, Jesse James, and Tony Parker infidelity. 
  • John Edwards fathers child with mistress.
  • Four Loko reformulated. No more caffeine, kiddos. 
  • Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Mel Gibson, Charlie Sheen act stupid.
  • Katy Perry's boobs on Sesame Street.
  • Miley Cyrus and the bong.

Divorce:
  • Courteney Cox and David Arquette
  • Sandra Bullock and Jesse James
  • Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren 
  • Christina Aguilera and Jordan Bratman
  • Eva Longoria and Tony Parker
Death:

  • Elizabeth Edwards succumbs to cancer.
  • 7.0 Haiti earthquake damages equal $7.2 billion to $13.2 billion with a death toll from 200,000 to 250,000 according to the Inter-American Development Bank  
  • Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Canada and tragic death of Nodar Kumaritashvili, the 21-year-old Georgian luge competitor who died in a training crash.
  • "Earthquakes, heat waves, floods, volcanoes, super typhoons, blizzards, landslides and droughts killed at least a quarter million people in 2010 - the deadliest year in more than a generation," according to the Washington Post.
Obviously, this isn't everything, but if I'm missing something super important, let me know!



Let us toast to 2011. May this be the year of  love, peace, and positivity (hopefully).
