What folks are Googlin' this morning
"rfk bridge" - The RFK Bridge in New York was completely shut down after a toll booth operator witnessed a man running from a U-Haul truck. The operator approached the truck, but called police as the scent of gasoline got stronger. The bomb squad thoroughly checked the truck and deemed it safe. Of course this comes just days after an attempted car bombing in Times Square.
"harry conick's wife"- Wow, it looks like Harry Connick, Jr's wife upstaged him last night because she's a hot search this morning. Harry told the story on American Idol about the first time he met Frank Sinatra, and all Frank wanted to do was stare at his wife Jill Goodacre. Sinatra took her face between his hands and said "you're beautiful," and then kissed her on the lips. Goodacre has made a good living off that charm. She was a Victoria's Secret model in the 80's and 90's. don't believe me?
"gabrielle union" - Actress Gabrielle Union has been thrown in the middle of divorce proceedings between her boyfriend, Dwayne Wade, and his ex. Siohvaughn Wade is accusing Gabrielle and Dwayne of extreme and outrageous conduct in front of their children. She says the two have engaged in sexual foreplay in public. Wade and Union deny the allegations. They think the suit is in retaliation for the custody battle taking place.
"american idol"- 17-year old Aaron Kelly was booted off American Idol last night. He did "Fly Me to the Moon" during Sinatra night and pulled the least number of viewer votes. Michael Lynche, also in the bottom two, lives to see another week. We're down to four and next week the idols will sing song from movies. Their mentor will be Jamie Foxx.

What's the strangest way you've ever won something?
23-year old Wade McGilberry from Mobile, Alabama just won a million bucks pitching a perfect game in the major leagues. Did I mention it was a video game? Major League Baseball 2K10 offered a million dollar prize to the first person to pitch a perfect game. (Pitching a perfect game, of course, means no batter from the other team scores or reaches a base) Wade said when he bought the game, his wife (brace yourselves, guys) encouraged him to take the day off to get a head start. Instead, he started after work. It only took him 5 or six tries before achieving the perfect game, and he got it all on video. The couple plans on using the money to pay off their mortgage and start a family.
What have you seen that makes you never want to fly again?
The travel website Januted asked fliers to share their worst experiences, and here are a few:
- One woman witnessed a man using a warm face towel as "an underarm rag."
- A man said he saw a male passenger use the blanket that belonged to his seat mate as a napkin after dinner while that person was away using the bathroom.
- A woman said an elderly lady asked her for a pin. When she gave her one, the woman used it to pierce a hole in her colostomy bag which was filling with gas. "...the most horrific stench filled the plane. Everyone thought it was me."
- One woman spotted a first class passenger clipping toenails
- Another witnessed someone finishing their greasy take-out meal by dumping their chicken bones onto the floor.
- One guy said he witnessed a passenger using the main aisle to do push-ups
- Another said they saw someone thumbing through a porn magazine
What is that one movie you're compelled to sit there and watch even though you've seen it a zillion times?
Great blog here about comfort movies, and our obsession to always stop and watch, even though we've watched them several dozen times and this one is on the Spanish language channel and you don't speak Spanish. "The Hunt for Red October" is a perfect example. It is hard to move past that one -- even though you own the DVD and could watch it on auto-replay. What is on for you?

CELEBRITY TWEETS
Yesterday's biggest waste of time that EVERYONE was covering -- Elizabeth Hasselbeck's apology to Dancing With the Star's contestant Erin Andrews. A couple days ago, Hasselbeck poked fun at the revealing outfits worn by Andrews on the show, saying her peeping tom could have just waited to see her half-naked on TV. Yesterday she apologized. And cried. And apologized. If you have the stomach for it, watch it here.
We're one step closer to another Die Hard flick. Skip Woods, who wrote "Hitman", is talking with Fox to whip something up for a new "Die Hard". Mark Bomback wrote the last one where John McClane battled web terrorists. The movie was huge making $378 million worldwide.
Drama on the Walk of Fame! Just hours before Julia Louis-Dreyfus was to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, someone noticed that there was a little boo-boo. Her name was spelled incorrectly. It read: "Julia Luis Dreyfus," missing the "O" in Louis. They fixed it just before the ceremony even though Julia wanted it kept as-is. She thought it was hysterical.
Don't tell a tween that Justin Bieber has a girlfriend. She may kill you. Justin met Kim Kardashian at the White House Correspondents' dinner over the weekend. A photo was taken which was sent out via Twitter by Bieber to his fans. The caption: "Look its my new girlfriend." His fans went ballistic, even sending Kardashian death threats. Last night, Bieber called off the dogs through this tweet:
"ladies calm down. @kimkardashian is a friend. a very sexy friend but a friend. no need 4 threats. Let's all be friends and hang out often ;)"

Survey of teenage drivers:
" 48% of girls said they are likely to drive 10 miles per hour over the speed limit. By comparison, 36% of the boys admitted to speeding. Of the girls, 16% characterized their own driving as aggressive, up from 9% in 2005.

The old lady replied, "He gave me a longer cane!"
