Friday’s News Conversational Stories

Another weekend is upon us, another weekend of meeting people, of dates, of conversations.

Here are my best newsworthy picks of conversational-worthy stories from the past week that you should know be well read of so you can discuss these stories confidently and intelligently.

- Lindsay Lohan enters a rehab facility for drunks, voluntarily, in hopes of not going to jail. Can you repeat after me “A little too late.” I really feel for this poor soul. Fame at an early age and all the temptations that exists has not made life easy, without a doubt. Lindsay, here’s a music video for you, a little inspirational help for the next 90 days or so:

- Do you “Sext” the wrong person by accident? Don’t worry, there’s plenty of others that do the same thing, a recent British poll finds. For me I don’t click “send” without double checking the numbers. Luckily…

- Goldman Sachs pays hefty $550 million fine for… whatever… Does anyone else wonder where all that money to pay the fine came from? Only on Wall Street does paying a fine in the millions add value to the company’s balance sheet and explain away all the wrong doing. Do you know anyone that’s lost their job, house, or retirement lately? What a comfort the SEC has brought us… ugh…

- Apple’s iPhone 4 fix… What will they offer the millions affected with poor signal quality? Stay tuned. CNET will host a live blog about the Apple announcement.

Have a great Friday and a great weekend!
