This week's Google Zeitgeist is out. Here is the list.
1. joe pichler
2. golden globes
3. james franco
4. james frey
5. angelina jolie pregnant
6. martin luther king
7. kim mathers
8. sasha cohen
9. smoking gun
10. denver broncos
11. naked news
12. hoodwinked
13. michelle wie
14. seahawks
15. friday the 13th
I am not especially interested in the things on the list this week. Martin Luther King is a carry-over from last week's list. More than a few people seem to still be chasing James Frey and other than that there is a lot of interest in Angelina Jolie and her apparent pregnancy.
1. joe pichler
While Blogcritics doesn't even have a mention of Joe Pichler on the site, I found the reason for his entry to be quite interesting. It is kind of like being a voyeur of a bunch of voyeurs. Nobody was really intersted in Joe Pichler until he became "that former child actor from the Beethoven movies that disappeared and might be dead." I haven't really been following this story until I read about it here, but it is a sad story. And not to be crass, but look at this picture that was released by his family.

2. golden globes
Now this is a topic that the Blogcritics have really taken hold of. This is a topic which resides in the site wheelhouse if you will.
- Ray Wong discusses the apparent link between awards success and movies based on literary works.
- If you don't feel like reading, you can listen to Eric Berlin discuss the Golden Globes on the SUBJECT2DISCUSSION radio show available via podcast.
- Or, if you want to play Monday Morning QB, you can go look at Chris Beaumont's predictions and make fun of all the things that he got wrong. Just kidding folks. Be nice!

i love the pictures of brad pitt and his new owner in haiti...he has a look on his face in some of the photos like "oh my god, what am i doing here? i should be in malibu chasing skirts." now that she's preggie, jolie is gonna lead him around on a leash...anyone wanna make odds as to how long he hangs around? will brad pull a federline and leave before the baby is born?
