Anything happen yesterday?
Former Senator Rick Santorum added "Former Candidate" to his name as he officially suspended his campaign after someone told him that running for President made you gay.
In Miami, Marlins' coach Ozzie Guillen was suspended after praising Fidel Castro, because the Marlins organization won't get behind anyone who stifles free expression. Also, his pitching is crap.
The Red Hot Chili Peppers just announced that they're endorsing President Obama for re-election. Pitchfork called the endorsement derivative of their last endorsement, and Rolling Stones said it was their worst endorsement in years.
That band sucks.
Ashley Judd went after the gossip media for fixating on her "puffy" face recently. She wrote an angry essay for the Daily Beast, which is a bold move for someone fighting the perception that she's losing her looks.
English Rugby chairman Richard Lewis was hired to head Wimbeldon, so look for that to be a lot more interesting next year.
The White House is pushing the new "Buffett Rule" for taxes, which would require you to use a clean plate each time you pay your taxes.
Statistically, speaking, one-fifth of third graders now own a cell phone, which is why your new auto-correct dictionary includes the word "cooties" but not "job."
And finally, the Iranian government announced it will be cutting the country off entirely from the Internet by August, so enjoy Iran's top celebrity gossip blog, SnarkyFarsi.com, while you can.
And that's it. See you tomorrow!

Wednesday Morning Monologue - February 1, 2012
Three... Two... One... JOKE!
Comic book artists Neil Gaiman and Todd McFarlane finally settled a longstanding dispute over royalties from the comic book series Spawn. In a related story, no one is claiming responsibility for anything Rob Leifeld has ever done.
The U.K. Navy sent one of its destroyers to the Falkland Islands this week, which is the most outrageous viral marketing you're likely to see for Iron Lady.
Celebrity chefs from Pakistan and India are set to compete in a reality TV cooking show this season. The secret ingredient: enriched Uranium 235.
In America, Democratic senators are planning to push forward the "Buffett Rule" to raise the tax rate on capital gains and subsidize the sale of cheeseburgers in paradise.
France is honoring Shakira for her contributions to art and culture at Cannes. Seems appropriate considering how those contributions came mainly from her can. Yes. You get a pun today. Don't take it personally.
Bollywood filmmaker Shirish Kunder said he was roughed up at a recent party by actor Shah Rukh Khan. Or, more accurately, he stared into the distance and shouted "KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!"
This clearly isn't my best day.
Twenty five abducted Chinese workers were freed from their captors in the Sudan this week. Said one freed worker, "that was the first vacation I've ever had."
And finally, Mitt Romney won the Florida primary election yesterday. In his victory speech, he thanked his greatest contributor: lowered expectations.
That's the end. Tomorrow brings more stuff. Come see!
