As much as I liked Michael Jackson's music he was, one must admit, um, well...weird. I thought that perhaps with MJ's passing the world might become slightly less weird. But just as nature abhors a vacuum she also, apparently, hates a Weirdness Gap. So who steps up to the plate to help out Mother Nature but Ms. Hockey Mom Herself: Sarah Palin! That's right, our Super Republican Heroine has filled the Weirdness Gap with a mighty weird abdication of the governorship Alaska. Way to go, Your Hockeyness!

Why did Her Hockeyness step down? Too tender skinned? Nah, not a Hockey Mom. Fear of not being able to give enough of herself to govern Alaska? Nah, didn't stop her in the first place--why should she care now?

Do you think Sarah will get a nose job? The Weirdness continues.
