9. Bulgarian councilor fired for Farmville addiction

Councilors in Plovdiv, Bulgaria were recently criticized for being addicted to Facebook. An article on Novinite.com reveals: "The discovery was made by the Chair of the Council, Ilko Iliev, who reacted strongly scolding the eager Internet farmers.   However, his reaction was to no avail, as the dedicated councilors continued developing their Facebook farms during the City Council meetings."    The councilors' Farmville habit was made possible because the city had recently set up their wireless Internet network and issued new laptops for all 51 of them.   The council's most intense Farmville farmer, a councilor named Dimitar Kerin, was eventually fired because of his addiction to the game.   The report explained: "The proposal to remove Kerin from his respective municipal committee came from Todor Hristov, a former member of Kerin's party, who has argued that Kerin 'needs more time for his virtual farm.'"

Korina Sanchez is certainly hubby Mar Roxas' queen...and that's all that matters.

10. ABS-CBN reporter RG Cruz has a bone to pick with Korina Sanchez

In late 2009, Cruz's anti-Sanchez FB diatribes finally caught up to him. Sanchez had apparently gotten wind of Cruz's references to her as a "First Lady wannabe," as well as a "queen in her head without a crown."   Sanchez allegedly retaliated with a letter to the network's big brass, demanding that Cruz be fired.   Perhaps, that letter was fake since Cruz still seems to be employed in the said network.
