11.10.10 Wednesday

Today is Sesame Street Day which celebrates the premiere of the kid's show we all grew up with on this day in 1969. Have you seen Sesame Street today? It should be called "Elmo's Sesame Street starring Elmo and Elmo."

Today is also Windows Day, marking this day in 1983 when Microsoft released its Windows operating system, a conspiracy by nerds to eventually control the world, and it worked.

Today is also Sleep Dangerously Night when you're supposed to switch sides of the bed with your spouse, National Toothpaste Day, and Marine Corps. Day marking the creation of the Corps as part of the U.S. Navy on this day in 1775.

Does anyone have a strange anniversary tradition?

Hey, congrats to Donald and Julia Cole of Portland, Ore, for 72-years of wedded bliss. The two celebrated their anniversary Monday night with a special dinner... a triple bacon pizza!

Yes, the pizza had a bacon tri-fecta including Canadian bacon, crispy bacon and pepper bacon.

"We're not much for celebrating," says Donald. "When you get our age, it's not important.

After inhaling the triple bacon pizza, I'm sure their anniversary tradition continued with old Donald sleeping on the couch! Yikes!

Mel Gibson and his ex-girlfriend go at it in court today. The closed-door hearing in Los Angeles deals with a custody dispute over the couple's one-year old daughter. Right now Gibson is seeing his daughter every other day with occasional overnight visits.

Us Weekly reports former "Bachelor" and "Dancing With the Stars" contestant Jake Pavelka is back at his old job. He piloted an October 24th Delta flight from Atlanta to Augusta, GA. In order to remain as anonymous as possible, the flight attendant told passengers that their "captain today is Jake." "His 15 minutes must really be up," a source joked to Us.

If you watch the Country Music Awards tonight, know this-- Gwyneth Paltrow is a nervous wreck! She'll sing "Country Song," the title track from a movie where she plays a singer striving for a post-rehab comeback. "If I can keep my nerves under control I can survive it," she says.

Good premiere night for Conan O'Brien. His Monday debut on TBS was watched by 4.1 million people -- most in the 18-34 demo.

The People's Choice nominees were announced yesterday and it was all about "The Twilight Saga." The film is up for 8 awards including favorite movie and favorite drama.

Did You Know

A Kansas State professor lost 26 pounds on a diet of Twinkies, Doritos, doughnuts and other treats. In your face, doc!

Who Said It?

"If a guy has one bad night, everybody goes insane and panics. I'm not panicking."

-Charlie Sheen on his "bad night" in NYC

Joke Of the Day

While Bill waited at the airport to board his plane, he noticed a computer scale that would give your weight and a fortune. He dropped a quarter in the slot, and the computer screen displayed: “You weigh 195 pounds, you are married and you’re on your way to San Diego.” Bill stood there dumbfounded.

Another man put in a quarter and the computer read: “You weigh 184 pounds, you’re divorced, and you’re on your way to Chicago.” Bill said to the man, “Are you divorced and on our way to Chicago?” “Yes.” Replied the man.

Bill was amazed. Then he rushed to the men’s room, changed his clothes and put on dark

glasses. He went to the machine again.

The computer read: “You still weigh 195 pounds, you’re still married, and you just missed your plane to San Diego.

Teens who text 120 times a day or more — and there seem to be a lot of them — are more likely to have had sex or used alcohol and drugs than kids who don't send as many messages, according to provocative new research. Um... if they text 120 times a day (or more), how do they have time to do anything else? go!
