Her face is plastered all over the Internet. You can see it on the news. Even Saturday Night Live, (who by the way is so lame that they need to move it to prime time with all of the other lame shows) did a spoof on it. The face I am talking about belongs to the New Jersey mom Patricia Krentcil. If you don't know who and what she did, you must have had your head buried in the rust colored shores of the Susquehanna River. Krentcil, otherwise known as the New Jersey Tan Mom has made quite a splash in the news over the past few days. The story has been all over the news from local channels to The Situation Room with The Wolfman, Wolf Blitzer. The reason for the splash or should I say tidal wave is because the New Jersey mom is facing charges for allegedly subjecting her young daughter to hours in a tanning salon — a claim that she’s hotly denied. Of course she does. The charges state that this leather faced wonder put her daughter under the tanning bulbs when she was just 5 years old. You may think that this is no big deal but the kicker is the daughter received first degree burns on her body. If convicted, she could get 10 years in the crow bar hotel where her face would match the orange jump suits. The Tan Mom denies that she took her daughter to the tanning booth and claims that she got sunburned from being outside. “Any mother who makes an accusation about me is not a mother because I’m a great mother — I would never do that to my child,” Krentcil rants. “There’s somebody out there for my whole life that doesn’t like me because they are jealous, fat and they’re ugly” chirped Krentcil.
Now, first off let me say Shame On The Media for latching onto this ridiculous story. It appears that our society thrives on this kind of manure and seemingly cannot get enough of it. The more bizarre it is, the more we love it. It appears that our desires for the insane have grown out of control with this one. It actually makes me sick to my stomach to see these types of stories explode on the web when there is real news and information out there that is more important to society. Of course the real news is filled with war, murder, rape and molestations which is exactly why we as people focus on these kinds of over the top stories. It appears that we have had our fill of hearing about the war along with the many murders and other felonies that fill our neighborhoods with fear and dread. A story like the Tan Mom puts a little laughter into our day simply because of its absurdity. Even Patricia Krentcil can't understand why this is making such a splash. “If you think about it for a second, Iraq and Cuba we’re involved in now,” Krentcil said, “but they care that I tan. ” I will say, you got that right bronze sister. To sum it up, who really gives a tanned rats ass.
GRIPE NOTE: By the way, Patricia Krentcil lives in Nutley, New Jersey. Go figure?
