3) LOST IS BACK!!!!! Prepare for the final season that debuts tonight at 9 on ABC.
We are promised answers to all the mysteries of the island and we better get them. Producers have sworn that we WILL NOT get the Sopranos fade to black ending, or the Newhart/Dallas it was all a dream ending. Honestly, we better get a satisfactory wrap up to this or...or...else!

4) This was a few days ago and worth the mention - The 2010 MusiCares Person Of The Year is Neil Young! The tribute for him was held at the Los Angeles Convention Center last Friday night. Dozens of musicians and stars came out to honor the GREAT GREAT NEIL YOUNG.
"In what was a staggering display of star power and rock & roll might, dozens of music luminaries gathered on Friday night to celebrate Neil Young as MusiCares Person of the Year."
YAY! We can't think of anyone who deserves it more!
Lost is minor news compared to the living legend that is NEIL YOUNG!! Why do some people get it totally and others just dont???
