There were more posts on my friends' page about someone named Sanjaya being voted off of American Idol then there were about Boris Yeltsin, the first president of Russia, dying.
However, in the defense of people on my friends' list, there were also more articles on MSNBC,The New York Times, CNN.com, and FOX online about Sanjaya being voted off of American Idol than there were about the death of Boris Yeltsin, the first president of Russia.
This brings about a uncertainty that I haven't felt since 10th grade World History when my class managed to know all the words to the theme song of Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, but no one knew the national anthem for the United States of America.
