Fox News is reporting that singer Nelly Furtado has admitted to snagging $1M from the Khaddafi family for a concert in Italy. Many entertainers have been getting slammed the last few weeks for similar. Furtado now says she'll donate the $$ to charity.
Is this a problem? I wonder if she broke an embargo doing this. Any chance she gets the Bobby Fischer treatment?

Sometimes. I don't have cable, remember? Sometimes, I don't get to the evening news.
Actually, I can't find the deal on FB right now. I might have seen it on Entertainment Tonight instead. I'm too lazy to switch to Jeopardy after the news is over because most nights I watch CBS starting at 7 anyway.

People without cable can't look up the news on the 'puter or they would miss Gilligan's Island and Lawrence Welk.
