Lots of women are diagnosed with breast cancer every day, so why does it take a famous person’s wife getting the disease to bring greater focus? In any case, best wishes to Amy Mickelson, wife of Phil Mickelson (he’s the pro golfer dude). Good job to Phil for taking the time off to support his…

A radio station Twittered that Patrick Swayze is dead, and the world believed it. Low and behold he isn’t dead, so says a spokeswoman. The funniest part of the story, though, is that messages left for Twitter for a comment were not returned. What comment would Twitter actually have to say about it?

Looks like people were tired of the big mustache and big-busted blond because the folks at NBC said they don’t want “My Name is Earl” back. Looks like Crabman can put his hair back to normal. Maybe Jay Leno will have a new sitcom in its place because it’s slowly looking like NBC is putting…

Just a helpful travel tip that if you plan to drive near Chicago anytime soon, you might want to have a full tank of gas as you make your way through The Windy City because we’ve got the most expensive gas. If only we could harness the awesome power of the burrito!

I’m a big fan of the TV show “Chuck,” and of the hot blond, Yvonne Strahovski, (though I’d be a happier fan if she got naked), so I was worried it wouldn’t get renewed for the Fall. Thank the heavens above, and a “Save Chuck” campaign, because it’s coming back for at least a lucky…

Neither rain, nor snow, nor the Catholic Church could keep the world from seeing “Angels & Demons,” so Tom Hanks gets another #1 movie, especially worldwide. “Star Trek” did pretty awesome, too, especially for its 2nd weekend out, but can an Ahnold-less “Terminator: Slavation” dethrone both of them next week? Only a week will tell.

Donald Trump has spoken and Miss California will stay Miss California, and will not give up her crown to Almost Was Miss California.  Yup, Carrie Prejean, whom none of us would give a damn about if she didn’t say something about marriage to Perez Hilton, keeps her crown, and Donal Trump also had no problem…

Baba Booey, a.k.a. Gary Dell’Abate got the chance of a lifetime, the dream of baseball fans everywhere, to throw out the first pitch at a baseball game.  Gary’s dream came true before a New York Mets game, and much to the delight of Howard Stern fans everywhere, Baba Booey threw like a girl.  YouTube has pulled…

It’s a threesome I’m wondering if anyone wants to see, but Susan Boyle and Simon Cowell will both be on Oprah.  The show is slated to air on May 11th and is titled “The World’s Got Talent.”  Will Simon stay on “American Idol?”; Will we care what Susan Boyle’s house looks like?; Will Oprah give…

Bear fans kept sort of hoping, in a weird Chicago way, that somehow Brett Favre would end up in a Bear’s jersey, although not now that they have Jay Cutler they don’t care.  Now the arrows are pointing that Mr. Favre might end up a Minnesota Viking – That is if he un-retires again, which of…
