So recently in the news I heard that Pam and longtime boyfriend Kid Rock are getting married. They started dating in 2001 and were engaged at one point before it was called off. Looks like now, it's back on again and could happen in just a matter of days.

On her Official Website (in her diary) Pam wrote:

I'm Getting Remarried!!!
Yes. I'm finally getting remarried...it's been a whirlwind...spontaneous but well thought through. Feels like I've been stuck in a time warp. Not able to let go of MY family picture...it's been sad and lonely and frustrating....I've raised my kids alone in hope of a miracle. Well my miracle came and went. And came back and came back because he knew that I'd wake up one day and realize that I was waiting for nothing. I'm moving on...I feel like I'm finally free....I'm in love. I'm happy....I see the light...sounds dramatic but it's true.....I know some women can relate to this....My children are getting older. They know the truth and they are strong, smart kids. They love their Dad. They love their new Step Dad who they've known for years...time will pass. Wounds will heal. Some people may never grow up. Actions speak louder than words....watch!

I did see a recent interview with Kid Rock and when he was commenting on Pam (very casually), it was pretty clear he was really heartbroken from breaking up with her. I guess he just kept on trying. Pam hoped for a miracle, and that miracle has a name...Kid Rock. Go figure.

Yes, there...I said it.

This morning I watched a bit of the Today show and Matt Lauer was talking about his interview that will be on the Dateline NBC special tonight with Britney Spears. They played a bit of the interview as well, complete with smiling Britney talking about being stalked and harrassed by the paparazzi (which eventually drove her to tears.)

She also mentioned how people constantly judge her.

Then the driving with her baby in her lap issue came up. Matt asked about people judging her mothering skills. She could have replied with some sorrow or remorse, but no. She said that her dad did the same thing with her..."hey, we're country" and THEN she said (and I might be paraphrasing slightly) "it was just for 5-miles or so down to the Starbucks."

Hello? How could anyone think it's ok to endanger your child for a quick 5-mile jaunt to get a latte at Starbucks? Oh yeah, a dolt could.

Of course I am judging her (bad me, bad me), but based off two things. Photos of her driving and then, her OWN words about the event. We live in a world where people judge everything. Maybe she is more of a victim due to the press. Then again, maybe not.
