What is the latest on the news you are following?

Asked by mazingerz88 (29260points) August 5th, 2011

Any news you are following lately? Would you share what the latest development is on that story and why are you following it? Also, it doesn’t have to be just typical news, gossip is acceptable as well as long as it’s interesting and intruiging even. Lol.

Just saw an article about over 1,400 millionaires that didn’t pay income taxes in 2009. I hope we see a follow up article on that for obvious reasons.

The latest development on my neighbor’s tomato garden is that he hasn’t figured out a way how to stop that pesky rabbit from stealing his tomatoes. I’m still wondering whether to tell him that the rabbit lives in our backyard.

The last thing I checked on the news was Bear attack in Norway because it is in the same area of Norway that my colleauge went on Honeymoon last year so she wanted to know the details.

The latest unemployment figures are out and there was modest improvement in the numbers! This is a good thing!

@Cruiser Saw that news as well. Agree. Also, I think the world’s richest man is poorer by 6 or 8 billion dollars. I’m so worried about that guy.

@Leanne1986 Svalbard is a very dangerous place. Polar bears are everywhere there. There are attacks every year.

I’ve been following news on id Software’s new game RAGE for quite some time..

Oh, and I’ve been trying to keep up with the filming of The Dark Knight Rises, seeing as it’s only being filmed about 20 minutes away from me.

The DOW dropped almost 300 two days ago, then 500 or so yesterday. I’m about to check how much it dropped today.

Joker94's avatar

I do not watch tv all the time. I don’t really care about what happens around. I hear news from my friends and some I decide to follow after. The latest is : what someone [a friend] is telling others. [they are lies though I wanna see where she’ll stop]

I’m following my own little story over here. Waiting to find out Monday or Tuesday if the stray cat my daughter rescued will be deemed adoptable or given the axe at the local animal shelter. She was sweet to us, but the shelter people say she is not acting very social. If they decide she is not adoptable because she is a little shy, then I am going to push them to spay and vaccinate her and I will adopt her, see if she works out over here, or, find her a home myself.

@blueberry_kid Again? Are you sure you’re not thinking of the July 11 attack?

YARNLADY's avatar

I was out of town for a week, so I’m still reading the July 31 newspaper. The story of The girl with 100 scars is heart wrenching.

blueberry_kid's avatar

@YARNLADY that might be it, it just came to mind.

Oh! I found this really funny baby online. Hehehehehehehehe. It’s wierd but it’s really awesome.

cazzie's avatar

I’m still reading about the funerals of the victims of the monster here in Norway.
