Joke of the Day

There's this little guy sitting inside a bar, just looking at his drink. He stays like that for half-an-hour.

Then, this big trouble-making truck driver steps next to him, takes the drink from the guy, and just drinks it all down.

The poor man starts crying.

The truck driver says: "Come on man, I was just joking. Here, I'll buy you another drink. I just can't see a man crying."

"No, it's not that. Today day is the worst of my life. First, I overslept and was late to an important meeting. My boss, outrageous, fired me. When I left the building to my car, I found out it was stolen. The police, they said they could do nothing. I got a cab to return home, and after I paid the cab driver and the cab had gone, I found that I left my whole wallet in the cab. I got home only to find my wife was in bed with the gardener. I left home and came to this bar. And when I was thinking about putting an end to my life, you show up and drink my poison ..."

A few quickies for ya...

Rihanna is suing her former accountants for ripping her off to the tune of tens of millions of dollars.  She hired them when she was only 16 and just kicking off her career...

Fans of Pink will be happy to hear there's a release date for her new album -- September 18th, and it'll be called The Truth About Love.  Watch her make the exciting announcement

Kelly Clarkson's hit "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" just became the biggest-selling single by any American Idol contestant. The single has sold 3,510,000 -- which is 1,000 more than Carrie Underwood's huge hit, "Before He Cheats."

Should we have known weeks ago that there was trouble in paradise for Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes?  Katie did an interview with Elle magazine 6-weeks ago.  She was asked about the reality of being Mrs. Tom Cruise, and here's her answer:

"He has been Tom Cruise for 30 years. I know who I am and where I am and where I want to go, so I want to focus on that."

Speaking of, it seems that Scientology was a huge source of stress for their marriage.  The deeper and deeper reporters dig on this story, the more it seems everything points to Scientology as the cause -- especially when it came to raising their daughter around the religion.  Tom wanted Suri home schooled by Scientologist teachers, while Katie wanted a more traditional atmosphere for a 6-year old.

Well Eva Longoria isn't sitting home alone this weekend.  Less than a week after announcing her split from Eduardo Cruz, Longoria is reportedly dating NY Jets QB Mark Sanchez.  In Touch reports the two have been going out of secret dates.
