Information You Should Keep To Yourself

There are certain things I will never understand, like why Oliver likes Charcoal Kabob so much, and why Michael refuses to eat ice cream from a spoon but will slurp it up greedily through a straw.

I now have a new one to add to my list. This morning one of the tidbits of "news" that greeted me as I perused my favorite websites was this gem:

Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O'Connell, who celebrated their first wedding anniversary July 14, are not expecting a baby - yet!

"We're trying to get pregnant," the actor told PEOPLE Saturday at the Playboy Mansion, where he stepped out for Much Love Animal Rescue's 2nd annual Bow Wow Wow event in Los Angeles. "It would be amazing if it happened. I hope it does."

O'Connell, who says trying to get pregnant is "a lot of fun," brought along the couple's dogs Taco and Better who he called "our babies."


Blah, blah, blah. How this doesn't qualify as news is beside the point. I just can't understand why you'd want to tell the whole world you are trying to have a baby and what fun you are having in the process. And I'm almost certain we will see some sort of invasion-of-privacy lawsuit from this couple in a few years when some nosy paparrazo tries to get a picture of the darling little ankle-biter.

Seriously, is nothing sacred? There are just some things the whole world does not need to know, and most of them involve how much fun you are having in your bedroom.
