George Anthony's Helping in the Search for Haleigh Cummings?

For the past two days I've been writing about missing Florida five-year-old Haleigh Cummings. Just this afternoon, we learned that George Anthony, grandfather of none other than slain Florida toddler Caylee Anthony, is helping to search for Cummings.

Anyway. Sometimes you write and write and write some more and you get sucked into the whole story. I do hope she is found and I DO hope she is okay.

**Disclaimer: this DOES NOT mean that I will be watching Nancy Grace anytime soon.**

Super Bowl Crotch Slide

Wish he'd slide smack into Ticketbastard and Live Nation.

And on a completely unrelated note, I just can't think it's a good thing when it is 67 degrees outside at 10 p.m. in the middle of February. Me thinks we're in for a few rough patches tomorrow. Will be mighty interesting to see how local coverage of any severe outbreaks goes...I mean, given that they've like, fired everyone here now.

Springsteen Wins Best Rock Song

Well Bruce, you're just having a hell of a great 2009, huh? Springsteen did indeed win Best Rock Song for "Girls..." - very nice, very nice indeed. Lost to Mayer in another category, but that's okay. But isn't "Gravity" like 2 years old already? Seems like it's been out for a really, really long time.



Anyway...congrats! Also, I just heard The Hold Steady's version of "Atlantic City" and I LOVE IT. Haven't heard? Oh, allow me....

R.I.P. Lux Interior

I'd read rumors all day long about this - now I see it is indeed true. Lux Interior, A.K.A. Erick Lee Purkhiser, died today in Glendale, California. He was 60 years old.

Keeping Up

Okay I've been busy with other things all week so I feel I need to catch up a bit on my Bruce Week activities. First and foremost, here's the new interview with Rich Eisen on NFL Network:



and OF COURSE, I must mention that Bruce gave his first press conference since I was in HIGH SCHOOL yesterday. Yes yes, these are Better Days, indeed.

My Favorite Commercial Though...

Thank you to those who pointed out that I left THE biggest commercial (at least for me personally, and apparently to a few others) off the list - oops! How could I forget!? I mean really, the chance to see Bruce without hopping on a plane...how marvelous! I'm getting so spoiled this month.
