1. A new study released today by Findlaw.com showed that of 1,000 Americans polled, two-thirds couldn't name a single current Supreme Court Justice. Experts say this is a frightening comment on our country, but that the Justices' notoriety should increase after this season's Dancing with the Justices.
2. Video game company Take Two Interactive has agreed to a deal with basketball legend Michael Jordan for the cover of the upcoming NBA2K11. Jordan will grace the cover but will also work closely with the developers on the gameplay. In other news, Ben Roethlisberger is working closely with a local Pittsburgh strip club to determine the week's best possible stage lineup.
3. A new Gallup poll is showing the largest Republican lead in party preference since Gallup began keeping track in 1950. 49% of people asked said they'd be voting for Republicans in November, and just 43% for Democrats. For allowing them to place the poll on their site, Gallup would like to thank Rentboy.com.
4. Director James Cameron was in Washington on Tuesday to meet with scientists and US officials on possible fixes for the disastrous Gulf oil leak. Cameron is actually an expert on deep-diving submersibles and maintains a small fleet of them. US officials didn't want any of Cameron's equipment, but rather laid out various-sized buoys and asked which most resembled Kate Winslet's rack.
5. Sarah Palin caused trouble for incumbent Alaska senator Lisa Murkowski Wednesday by endorsing Murkowski's Tea Party opponent Joe Miller. Political analysts say this snub stems from Murkowski criticizing Palin after stepping down as Governor in the middle of her term. Well, that, and Palin once hunted her from a helicopter.
High five.
