IN SEARCH OF 

What folks are Googlin' this morning


"john wooden" - #1 search this morning is for John Wooden, former UCLA basketball coach who is reportedly in grave condition at UCLA Medical Center.  The 99-year old won 10 national titles.


"lakers vs. celtics" - Game 1 went to Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers last night - 102-89.  "It wasn't the prettiest basketball game I've ever watched in my life but it was a good win for us," Lakers coach Phil Jackson told reporters.


"lisa ann russell saved by the bell"- After nearly 14-years of marriage, Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Lisa Ann Russell have separated.  Lisa was a onetime guest star on "Saved By the Bell: The College Years."  No reason was given for the split but it's no secret that Marky Mark enjoys the Hollywood night life.  


"burn notice"- "Burn Notice" is back on USA and last night Michael returned to find that Sam and Fiona have been doing just fine while he was gone (kidnapped by a secret organization, of course).  Read the recap here





PHONEBUZZ

Light 'em up!


I hate to admit it, but I'm a huge fan of (who)?
Do you secretly hide a love for something because you know your friends will tease you relentlessly about it?  THIS guy doesn't care... he's Mick Follers, and HE LOVES JUSTIN BIEBER!  He's such a huge fan that he has the name BIEBER for a personalized license plate.  Follers is a forklift driver near Sydney, Australia, and he finally received his plate on May 28th. Doesn't he look proud?  The 34-year old has one wish:   "If I could get them personally signed by Justin, it would be a great story later on in life ... They would look great up on the wall in a music or entertainment room."





Where's the strangest place you've ever dozed off?
A woman who was left asleep on a locked plane for hours after landing is suing United Airlines.  The flight from D.C. to Philadelphia landed around 12:30 am.  Everyone got out, but nobody bothered to wake up the sleeping woman until the cleaning crew boarded four hours later.  Ginger McGuire is suing for false imprisonment, infliction of emotional distress and negligence.  





CELEBRITY TWEETS


  • It's done, folks.  The axe has been officially lowered on the CBS shows "New Adventures of Old Christine," "Ghost Whisperer," and "Law & Order."  ABC passed on picking up "Christine" and "Ghost," and TNT declined to give "Law & Order" another year.  

  • We lost another "Golden Girl" yesterday.  Rue McClanahan, who played Blanche Devereaux on the series died - she was 76.  She suffered a massive stroke and, according to her manager, "went in peace."  

  • Katherine Heigl told USA Today that she loves being married, but there was a time "when I didn't so much.  The first four to six months were the hardest.  It was the first time we lived together and there was a weight in the relationship that didn't exist."  She's married to musician Josh Kelly.

  • Nick Cannon put to bed the rumors that his wife, Mariah Carey, is pregnant with twins.  He said on his radio show that "when she tells me something, I'll tell y'all, probably after I tell my mama." 

  • Talker Rush Limbaugh will marry for a fourth time this weekend if all the rumors are true.  He told the gossip section of the Palm Beach post that "we do not seek media attention, we do not want it, especially for this.  It is very special."  For the record, he's 59; she's 33.  pictures

  • Joran Van der Sloot was arrested Thursday in Chile after being named the prime suspect in the murder of a Peruvian woman.  If his name sounds familiar, it's because he was linked with the 2005 disappearance of Natalee Holloway.  more

DID YOU KNOW

Al and Tipper's separation after 40 years -- rare?

WHO SAID IT?

-Miley Cyrus


JOKE OF THE DAY

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson went on a camping trip. After a good meal and a bottle of wine, they lay down for the night and went to sleep. Some hours later, Holmes awoke and nudged his faithful friend awake. "Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."

Watson replied: "I see millions and millions of stars."

"What does that tell you?" Holmes questioned.

Watson pondered for a minute: "Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets,” he said: “Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo. Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three. Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful and that we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What does it tell you?"

Holmes was silent for a minute, then spoke: "Watson, you idiot. It tells me that someone has stolen our tent!"
