Breaking And Entering? Not If You're Famous

The rich and the famous are often accused of thinking they are somehow better than the rest of us, or that they think they are somehow above the laws which govern the rest of us. But is that really fair? Are they really that disconnected from reality?

Um.... Yes. They are.

It seems that whenever Goldie Hawn visits the DC area, she likes to stop by her childhood home in nearby Takoma Park, Maryland. Nothing wrong with that, you may be thinking. A lot of people will sometimes drive by their old houses.

Well, yes, and if she were to actually keep driving, then that would, in fact be reasonably normal.

But Hawn is a celebrity, and therefore not subject to the rules of behavior that govern the lower elements of society. That would include such silly concepts as respecting other people's privacy and property.

She will actually go inside--uninvited, mind you--and walk around. On one occasion she stopped by when the owner wasn't home. Did this stop Hawn? No, of course not. She just found an open window and climbed on in!!

If you or I did that, chances are we would soon be picking up Big Bubba's soap at the local jail.
