The Flying Kardashian Family: And now I know

Okay, I give up. Sometimes you keep hearing these names until they start visiting you in your dreams. Thank goodness this hasn’t yet been the case for me. So that is why I finally decided to Google: the Kardashians.

I’ve heard of Kim Kardashian. I seem to remember hearing about a sex tape, that she was on some TV show (“Dancing With the Stars”) other than the “Keeping Up With the Kardashians,” and that she dated then broke up with then dated and broke up with Reggie Bush, the New Orleans Saints star, who won the Heisman Trophy and then had to give it up because of a “pay-for-play scandal” when he attended USC. Whew!

Now it seems Bruce Jenner, the 1976 Olympic decathalon winner, is part of the Kardashian klan having married Kris, the family matriarch.

Still, I don’t know what makes this whole family give America a big buzz. I mean Kim Kardashian, who is also a model, is kind of … hot. Well, maybe even more than one of the family is … hot. But come on. There are a lot of attractive people in the world and some of them are smart, some are as dumb as a box of rocks.

So back to where we were. I don’t get it. But, I have never watched their little TV show, starring the Kardashian family.

Oh well, at least I can nod my head in honesty when someone now asks “you know those Kardashian family people?” I could just as easily had lied.
