"Once our eyes are opened, we cannot pretend we don't know what to do. God, who weighs our hearts and keeps our souls, knows that we know, and holds us responsible to act." Proverbs 24:12

A loooong "24" hours....


for Kiefer. Yes, as much as I hate to type the words, he has gotten himself into a mess that even Jack Bauer can't get him out of.

Kiefer
Sutherland was arrested early Tuesday morning, for driving under the influence, as he attempted to make an illegal U-turn in West L.A. He was seen earlier in the evening at a FOX party, the network that broadcasts "24".

Kiefer
tested over the state's legal blood alcohol limit of .08 percent, but reports didn't say what his alcohol level was. He was booked and spent 3 hours in jail before posting $25,000. bail and being released.

The sad part is that Mr. Sutherland is not a stranger to this situation. In 1989 and 1993, he plead guilty and was convicted of reckless driving while under the influence. Kiefer got three years probation for both of those cases, the second of which fell just after the probation was up for the first. Time was on his side in that one. Later in 2004, he was again convicted of another DUI. He pleaded no contest to one misdemeanor count of driving under the influence and was sentenced to 60 months of probation, a $500. fine, 50 hours of community service and was ordered to attend an alcohol treatment program. In May 2005, he appeared again in court with proof of completion of both the community service and the treatment program.

I just don't understand why these celebrities (Paris, Lohan, etc.) with all the money they have don't hire a chauffeur to take them around when they are partying. It makes no sense.

Anyways, that's it from Ohilda's Kiefer watch. I just hope it doesn't affect the production and his character on season 7 of "24".
