Scandals, Anyone?

Strange how celebrities got embroiled in scandals time and again. US presidents, senators, Tiger Wood, Jack Neo etc...

Back in those days when extra marital affairs were commonly accepted as a way of life. Mind you, they still are for some in these modern times. I had seen several instances of wives turning a blind eye to the husbands' trysts .. as long as they put bread on the table or more likely to be - do not bring those diseases into the family.

I had encountered people committing suicide upon discovering they had contracted sexual diseases, and leave their families to cope with the loss. Sad, but true, the evils of the most ancient deadly sins. Look for the "Seven Deadly Sins" in youtube if you are interested (I first watched it on cable)

And to top it all, its also rightly put that money is the sins of all evils. Those celebrities may have started off poor or not so well-off in their early years. Once they become stronger financially or in reputation, then ... tsk tsk. Perhaps its more logical to have enough and not too much, but then, who will complain with more money.

Tiger Wood's reason is pretty fresh to me though. As reported in one of our local papers, there is this urge that cannot be contained. How much of that is true, I am not so sure and have no wish to pursue. To me, an excuse can thinly be disguised as a legitimate reason.

On the other hand, some people have the charisma to influence others even if the perpetrators are not rich, like those leaders of cults that had surfaced in the news time and again. Or should it be said that some people are easily influenced by people who capitalised on their weaknesses? Perhaps its just the unfortunate timings that put the 2 people together... fate?
