The good, the bad and the ugly of 2009:

* Miracle on the Hudson.  Canadian Geese flew into a plane killiing the engines.  The plane crashed in the Hudson River and everyone survived due to Captain Chelsey Sully. 

*The swine flu hit in the spring and many people died.  A Vaccine was made to help stop it from turning into a pandemic.  It seems to have fizzled out,  if people do get it, it's not as fatal. 

*Susan Boyle,  an average...homely lady with a grea tvoice, from Great Brittain won Brittain's Got Talent. 

* Kris Allen beat Adam Lambert in American Idol.  (thank goodness...casue Adam is SYCHO)

*Nadya Suleman or also known as the "octomom" gave birth to octuplets.  She allready had  6 kids?  Not married and all babies were invitro...only in the USA.

*Carrie Prejean Miss California was asked a question in the Miss USA pageant.  Her reply was that she believed that marriage should be between and man and a woman.  She was called horrible names and stripped of her title as Miss California.  But she stood up for what she believed and that makes her awesome!

*Jaycee Dugard was kidnapped 18 years ago at the age of 9?  She was found and returned to her family. 

* The FAb 5 clogging group which consists of 5 sisters who are LDS competed for the title of America's Got Talent.  They made it to the final 3.

* My favorite Donny Osmond won Dancing with the stars!  I have loved Donny and Marie since I was a kid and watched them on TV.  I even had the Donny and Marie barbie dolls.   

*Michael Jackson died of an overdose and Farah Fawcett died of cancer and Patrick Swayze also died of Cancer.  Michael and Farah died on the same day.   Michael Jackson got his fame when I was a kid, I loved his songs.  I also pretended to be Farah on Charlie's Angels.  My friend had a Charlie's Angels Lunch box that we would stare at every day.

*Barak Obama becomes out nations president... ( Notice this makes the bottom of the list).

Wow! All that happened just last year? It seems like forever ago that we've had (ugly) Obama as our president! haha! I had to laugh when you wrote "not good, very ugly" cause I couldn't decide if you meant HE was ugly or that him being president was ugly! haha!
