Some new balloons in this year's Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade include updates of some old favorites: There's Mickey Mouse dressed as a sailor, a more muscular-looking Spiderman, and Chaz Bono.
Last night the Obama's welcomed Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to the White House for their first State Dinner. Singh said the evening was much different than the last State Dinner he attended during the Bush administration... mostly because the President didn't refer to him as, "Indiana Jones."
This is crazy. A 13-year-old boy went missing for 11 days, and was found living in the New York City subway system. His parents can't believe it, they said they searched for him everywhere they could think of like... up in his room, down in the basement, in a weather balloon all over CNN...

Congratulations to the St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Albert Pujols who won his third National League MVP award yesterday. That's as many as ARod has... but Pujols did it without being on steroids... or Kate Hudson.
A man in Taiwan was robbed of more than $2 million in cash after he just withdrew it from the bank. That's why whenever I use an ATM in Taiwan - I never, ever select "Fast Cash."
Just days after announcing that she's ending her talk show after 25 years, sources at Harpo say that Oprah will not do her Favorite Things episode this year – which has aired every Thanksgiving week for the past 7 years. Women everywhere are calling the news the second sign of the "Oprah-calypse."

This Thanksgiving over 46 million turkeys in America will be eaten which equates to about 690 million pounds of turkey meat... or as Kirstie Alley calls it: a "Jenny Craig cheat day."
Did you guys know the rumor that Turkey increases tryptophans and makes you tired is a myth? Drowsiness is actually caused by the carbo-heavy sides like potatoes and stuffing... or if you're in the Senate, reading the entire Healthcare Bill.
Here's another Thanksgiving turkey fact for you guys... did you know that white meat has fewer calories and less fat - than dark meat? Yeah, and according to Lou Dobbs the white meat also works harder.
Some new balloons this year in the Macy's Parade: There's an updated Spiderman, Ronald McDonald, the Pillsbury Dough Boy... and Macy's planned to fly a bunch of balloons shaped like the "New Moon Wolfpack" but they worried Sarah Palin would shoot them down.
On Thanksgiving Macy’s is the world’s second-largest consumer of helium. The number one largest helium consumer: Balloon Boy's parents.
This Thanksgiving it's expected that 2.9 million people will travel by car, trains, and buses. It's also predicted that all of those people will arrive before any Northwest passengers do.
President Obama had his first Thanksgiving at the White House yesterday - a Pot Luck dinner hosted by Michelle. Hillary Clinton brought the cranberry sauce, Joe Biden brought the sweet potato casserole, and Tim Geithner brought some M&M's he found in the seat cushions of one of his "Clunkers."
Did you guys see J.Lo's performance at the AMA's this weekend? During her dance routine, she jumped off a platform, slipped and landed on her butt. Don't worry, she's ok... but the stage suffered a concussion.
Former CNN anchor Lou Dobbs said in a new interview that he is considering running for President in 2012. If he runs political strategists believe he could be the first candidate to receive 100% of the "Unpopular" vote.
Dobbs said on day one as President, the first thing he'd do is make the White House... even whiter.
Oprah’s best friend, Gayle King, said in an interview with NBC this morning that Oprah doesn’t watch TV. Apparently that's Stedmon's job.
There are upwards of 100 balloon handlers per giant balloon in the Macys Parade. Yeah 30 to fly each balloon and the other 70 to call cnn and report a hoax.
President Obama said today that he has made a decision on how many more combat troops soldiers he will send to Afghanistan and will make the announcement... after Thanksgiving. Apparently he's waiting until the precise moment when the Republicans' food coma sets in.

What an opening weekend for "New Moon"! It came in Number 1 at the weekend box office with $140 million and pulled in almost $260 million worldwide. The movie is such a financial success the Democrats are thinking about changing their name to "Team Edward."
This is crazy. Scientists at the University of Pennsylvania are trying to develop LED tattoos that can turn your skin into a screen. Can you imagine that, now you could watch the Real Housewives of New Jersey... ON the Real Housewives of New Jersey?!
Michael Jackson’s famous white moonwalk glove sold for $350,000 in an auction on Saturday to a man in Hong Kong. Ironically the winning bidder's name was, "Billy Jin."
A couple in England named their new daughter Kia – after she was delivered in the back seat of their Kia. And for her middle name, the couple chose "Steve" - after the mechanic who towed them to the hospital.
Two people sustained minor injuries when several bulls in Spain escaped from the set of a movie starring Tom Cruise. The bulls almost mauled Cruise but luckily he was able to jump on a couch.
Lincoln University in Philadelphia is facing criticism for requiring its overweight students to take a fitness class in order to receive their degrees. The students are planning to protest... though probably not with a hunger strike.

Oprah said goodbye on her show today, announcing that she’s walking away after 25 years on the air. It was an emotional moment… she broke down in tears, then the audience broke down in tears… then she told everyone, “you get a tissue, and you get a tissue, everybody get’s a tissue!”
Her last episode will air on September 9, 2011... Or as the Mayan Calender called it, "The Oprah-calypse".
But she did give her audience something to look forward to. She said, “In season 25, we will knock your socks off.” You know what that means, guys… in season 25 Oprah’s giving away new socks!
In Swine Flu news: The "Organization of Seasonal Santas" - a labor union for mall Santa Clauses - is recommending the Santas not wear the traditional white cotton gloves anymore because cotton tends to absorb germs. You know what else absorbs germs? Long, unkempt bears!
The Union wants the elves to help screen kids "out of the line" who seem sick. Meanwhile mall officials would like the kids to screen out any elves who seem drunk.

“2012” came out today! It's a movie about the end of the world as predicted by the Mayan calendar. Funny, my calendar only predicts 12 straight months of bikini car washes in 2012.
“2012” came out today! The title refers to the year the Mayans predicted the world would end... or as Democrats call it, the year Sarah Palin takes over.
During an interview with “Oprah” – set to air on Monday – Sarah Palin says that Levi Johnston is “part of the family." And according to Playgirl, it's a pretty average-sized part.
A 10-year-old boy in Arkansas refuses to say the pledge of allegiance in school because the U.S. discriminates against gay people. While the rest of his classmates pledge, he quietly recites the theme song to "GLEE."
Scientists in Japan are one step closer to producing a “three parent baby” after they successfully fertilized an egg with two biological mothers. It's the biggest scientific breakthrough in parenting since, "3 Men and a Baby."
This is crazy. Police in Staten Island are searching for two men dressed as Super Mario and Luigi who robbed a cab driver at a gas station. Apparently the floating bricks they usually headbutt for cash were all out of gold coins.
Big news. Costco opened its first store in Manhattan this week! It's great, I bought a can of tuna that's bigger than my apartment!
