Bitman By David Evjen Bitman1@aol.com Wednesday, March 12th, 2014 THE BITS… Kim Kardashian was involved in a traffic accident yesterday. Apparently it was pretty serious. Kim was rear-ended. It’s reported that Justin Bieber may have won Selena Gomez back by buying her $10,000 worth of flowers. That’s pretty impressive because $10,000 worth of flowers is nearly two dozen roses. It’s reported that Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez are back together again. Even Chris Brown and Rihanna are warning Selena to stay away from Justin. Bachelor Juan Pablo has released a video montage showing his best moments with Nikki. Apparently it’s one of those six-second Vine videos. Bachelor Juan Pablo has released a video montage showing his best moments with Nikki. Personally, I’d rather see a video of what Juan Pablo loved doing with Clare Bill O'Reilly slammed Beyoncé as a bad role model and called her new music video in which she has sex with her husband in a limo "exploitive garbage." It sounds like O’Reilly could stand to spend some time with Beyoncé in a limo. Rolling Stone Keith Richards is writing a children’s book. I think it’s going to be called Green Eggs and Heroin. President Obama did an interview with the website Funny or Die yesterday. Conservatives are furious. Not because Obama did the interview, but because he didn’t die. Thieves stole $600,000 from the Houston mega-church led by Pastor Joel Osteen. If only the church had been watched over by some sort of higher authority.

If you don’t believe things are tough at Disney just ask Snow White and the Three Dwarves. Disney is laying off 700 workers. Money has been tight at Disney ever since Pinocchio was caught embezzling money to get a nose job. A British divorcee has married her pet dog. The dog seems pretty happy. On their wedding night they did it people style. A British divorcee has married her pet dog. The two have a lot in common…They both like to bite the mailman. A British divorcee has married her pet dog. If you want to pick up a wedding gift for the couple their registered at Petsmart. A middle school teacher in Little Rock, Arkansas accidentally showed her class a video of herself performing sex acts on a guy. School officials say the teacher will either be disciplined or reassigned to teach sex education. A Little Rock middle school teacher accidentally showed her class a video of her performing sex acts on a guy and officials are determining appropriate disciplinary action. I think they already saw some inappropriate disciplinary action. An elderly couple in Virginia says they were kicked out of a local McDonald's for overstaying the 30-minute time limit. In other news, there are actually people who want to linger at McDonald’s for over a half hour. The Georgia Legislature has approved a measure that would make it a misdemeanor to drive too slowly in the left lanes and not pull over to let people pass. Luckily, the new law wouldn’t apply to Danica Patrick.

JUAN PABLO is being called the worst Bachelor ever although they’re saying he’s just as happy to be done with the show as producers are to be done with him. In fact, Juan Pablo is bailing on all post-show appearances such as Good Morning America, but the shows don’t seem to want him anyway. Insiders say that they had to do a lot of editing on the After the Rose special and that the energy in the room was so negative that people in the audience wouldn’t even applaud when told to do so. It’s also said that Juan Pablo’s lack of cooperation was because he was upset about not getting a spot on Dancing with the Stars. Juan Pablo also reportedly told the production crew that he’d have a surprise for the finale, but he was apparently just jerking their chains. As for he and Nikki, no one is expecting it to last and word has it that they didn’t even share a room following the After the Rose special. In any case, Juan Pablo was apparently a guy people loved to hate because the ratings for the finale were the best of the entire season as Monday night’s finale beat The Voice, Bones and How I Met Your Mother. If you’re wondering why in the world SELENA GOMEZ would take JUSTIN BIEBER back, it may have something to do with the $10,000 in flowers he sent to her after drooling over how beautiful she was at the Vanity Fair Oscars party. After a brief reunion earlier this year a source says, “Bieber has hardcore been after Selena.” The source went on to say, “Justin will do anything, literally anything for Selena,” except for staying monogamous. However, they got back together against Selena’s parents’ wishes, although she’s the big bread winner in the family and of legal age so there’s not much they can do about it. KATHARINE MCPHEE is apparently back with her husband Nick Cokas, some five months after she was seen kissing her married "Smash" director Michael Morris in public. Sources say Katharine has been working hard to patch things up since then. While they’re not living together, they are seeing each other more often as of late and she even bought Nick a new Rolex as a makeup gift. Bitman By David Evjen Bitman1@aol.com Wednesday, March 12th, 2014 TINSELTOWN TATTLER 2… ROBIN THICKE was on the L.A. club scene the other night, again without wife PAULA PATTON. Robin was celebrating his 37th birthday with Leonardo DiCaprio and left alone at around 1 AM with just his driver and bodyguard. However, the club is known for its waitresses who show about as much boob as is legally allowed. Meanwhile, it was also reported that Robin and Paula reunited for a family outing in Vancouver over the weekend their son Julian. It was the first time they’ve been seen out together since announcing their split last month. Those marriage rumors regarding PRINCE HARRY and Cressida Bonas are heating up again! A supposed royal source tells E News that they’ve made a point of talking about marriage and, according to friends of Cressida's, the couple are trying and keep their semi normal lifestyle as long as possible. The royal insider adds that Kate Middleton has been super helpful when it comes to giving Cressida advice on dealing with the increasing spotlight. The insider goes on to say Harry has told his people that he knows he’ll marry Cressida but he wants to ensure their life doesn't become a circus. So, if JENNIFER LOPEZ was floating on a raft in the middle of the ocean and came upon ex-boyfriends BEN AFFLECK and DIDDY and could only rescue one, which would it be? After being asked that in an interview, J.Lo responded: "I'd let both those mother f--kers drown." However, Lopez said she was just joking. (Hear here around the 5:09 mark-careful of language) KIM KARDASHIAN was in a minor fender-bender yesterday in Beverly Hills. An eyewitness says an oncoming driver crashed into her while she was making a left turn. Both cars suffered only minor damage and there were no injuries. Kim asked the other driver to meet her at the nearby Beverly Hills Hotel to exchange info, which they did, before hugging and going their separate ways. Bitman By David Evjen Bitman1@aol.com Wednesday, March 12th, 2014 DATELINE HOLLYWOOD… TOM BERGERON is cutting back on his workload as he’s announced that he'll end his run as host of America's Funniest Home Videos at the end of next season. Bergeron took over in 2001 and is the longest running host of the show. Next season will mark the show’s 25th anniversary. LENA DUNHAM says she may quit acting when Girls ends its run. Lena tells Glamour magazine, "I don't know if I'm going to want to act anymore. I'm always relieved on the days I don't have to. I'd rather give parts to other women than be the woman having the parts." BILL COSBY has emphatically declared that a Cosby Show reunion isn't going to happen. Cosby said they had a great eight years because people were getting sick of cute little kids. Cosby went on to say that audiences were tired of seeing illmannered children with no respect outsmarting their clueless parents. There’s bad news if you’re hoping for some sort of major 10th anniversary MEAN GIRLS reunion. TINA FEY and LINDSAY LOHAN recently saw each other while appearing on Jimmy Fallon’s first “Tonight Show,” but Tina would only say that if everyone’s around they might try to do some kind of panel discussion with a plate of hot wings, but definitely not a movie. The WEtv channel has ordered a one-hour pilot of an American version of the British TV show SEX BOX. It involves real couples having relationship problems entering a soundproof box to have sex and then talk about their issues with a panel of experts.

Bitman By David Evjen Bitman1@aol.com Wednesday, March 12th, 2014 MUSIC NOTES… KISS’ PAUL STANLEY has written his autobiography called Face the Music: A Life Exposed. However, Stanley doesn’t think much other rock stars' memoirs saying, "95 percent of the autobiographies by any of my contemporaries would be better suited on a roll of soft paper, so at least you could use it for something." That includes those of former bandmates Peter Criss and Ace Frehley, as Stanley says, “there is a reason that defense attorneys don't put alcoholics or drug addicts on the witness stand." Stanley’s book will be out on April 8th. KEITH RICHARDS is publishing a children’s book called Gus & Me: The Story of My Granddad and My First Guitar. Richards’ grandfather was in a jazz big band and was a childhood role model for him. Richards has just become a grandfather for the fifth time and says, “The special bond, between kids and grandparents is unique and should be treasured. This is a story of one of those magical moments.” His daughter Theodora Richards will do the illustrations in pen and ink and the book will be out on September 9th. The film Super Duper ALICE COOPER, which is being billed as the first "doc opera," featuring a mix of documentary footage, animation and rock opera will premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival next month. The film will hit theaters on May 30th and fans are invited to ask Alice questions via social media with the hashtag #AskAlice. Cooper will choose a few, and his answers will run following each theatrical screening. (See clip here) BECK has announced plans for a North American tour. Beck will hit the road following previously announced appearances at Coachella and Edgefest in April. Tickets go on sale starting at 10 o’clock this morning. LANA DEL REY has announced plans for some tour dates surrounding her upcoming Coachella appearances. The tour begins on April 11th in Las Vegas.

Brian Weir is suing the city, claiming he faced retaliation after reporting that a detective made inappropriate remarks about WHITNEY HOUSTON'S body at her death scene. Weir claims a detective sergeant removed a sheet covering her body and remarked that she was "still looking good," along with similar comments. BEYONCÉ has managed to get Bill O'Reilly’s tighty-whities in a bunch. O’Reilly hosted Russell Simmons on his Monday show and said he was shocked and appalled over Beyonce’s Partition video, which depicted her having sex with her husband in a car. (See here) FRANK OCEAN has cut Chipotle a check for $212,500 after they sued him for backing out of a commercial deal he was paid upfront for. However, Ocean apparently wasn’t too happy about giving the money back because the check's memo reads, "F*** OFF." As of yesterday Chipotle said they’d seen the photo, but haven’t received a check. JERROD NIEMANN launched the website JourneyToHighNoon.com yesterday. The site will feature a five-part mini-movie starring Niemann as the hero of the High Noon Saloon. The series will lead up to the March 25th release of his new album "High Noon." Country Music Hall of Fame singer MEL TILLIS is recovering in Nashville after heart surgery over the weekend.

Highlights included Galifianakis asking about pardoning the White House turkey last November, to which Obama responded: "Was that depressing for you? Seeing one turkey taken out of circulation? One turkey you couldn't eat?" Obama also said, "If I ran for a third time, it would be like doing a third Hangover movie. It didn't work out too well, did it?" Galifianakis also asked, "Is it going to be hard in two years when you are no longer president and people stop letting you win at basketball?" (See here) Here’s a law we can all get behind…or at least get stuck behind. The Georgia Legislature has approved a measure that would allow police to ticket people driving too slowly in the left lanes on the state's highways and interstates. The socalled "slow poke" bill would require any driver on a divided highway to move to the right even if they're driving at the speed limit when a vehicle going faster comes up from behind, or face a misdemeanor charge. The Georgia Senate approved the measure by a vote of 42-5. Last month the House of Representatives approved it by a margin of 162-9. The bill now goes to Republican Gov. Nathan Deal and even if he doesn’t sign it, the legislature would appear to have enough votes for an override. Last Wednesday, 11-year-old Kareem Granton disappeared from his Brooklyn home and his mother, Precious, launched a citywide search for him. Luckily, Kareem hadn’t been abducted. Not wanting to carry out the task of cleaning up dog poop that his mother had assigned him, Kareem took $10 his stepdad had given him and ran away from home, sleeping on the subway for five days. Kareem got lost and as the hours turned to days he was afraid to go home even though he knew his mom was looking for him. Kareem said he didn't know it would turn into this big of a situation and that he’s aware he's going to be punished.

It’s an anonymous messaging app that lets people send a message to someone without them knowing who the sender is. Authorities say it can make cyber bullying easier and harder to trace. After an Alabama teen used the app to make school shooting threats in February and a Massachusetts high school was twice evacuated due to bomb threats posted to the app, Yik Yak was temporarily disabled for the Chicago area. Unfortunately, the app already has more than 240,000 users, but there are no accounts or usernames next to the "Yaks." The creators of Yik Yak say they intended it to be used by college students like "a virtual bulletin board." A new study suggests that parents who spend too much time on their smart phones usually ignore their kids. Researchers from Boston Medical Center went to various fast food restaurants to observe the reactions children had when mom or dad played with their cell phones. They found that almost a third of the parents used their devices continuously throughout their meal and while some children appeared unaffected and ate their meals in silence, other kids tried to get their parents attention by doing such things as singing "Jingle bells, Batman smells." Peeing in the pool is not only gross, researchers at Purdue and China Agricultural universities now say it can be bad for you. They found that when urine meets water containing chlorine and other chemicals, two potentially dangerous chemical byproducts are formed, which can affect the lungs, heart, central nervous system, and other organs if inhaled. Both chemicals have been linked to health problems experienced by swimmers, lifeguards, and pool staff. A 2012 survey found that 19 percent of adults admitted they’d peed in a public pool. Even if you’re not a pool peer, previous studies suggest that swimmers typically unintentionally "drip out" as much as two shot glasses of urine when swimming.

Creator Dong Nguyen says he’s considering bringing the game back after taking it down last month. The Vietnamese Nguyen said he took it down because it had become "an addictive product" and success had begun to weigh on him. He’d been making an estimated $50,000 a day from Flappy Bird but, if the game returns, he urged players to "please take a break." Virginia’s Carl and Barbara Becker were recently kicked out of a local McDonald's. No, they weren’t causing trouble. But when an employee started cleaning near where they were eating and dust started kicking up, the worker asked if it bothered them. Carl replied, “Only if you like to eat dirt does this not bother me.” Shortly after that, the manager said their 30-minute time limit was up, and they had to leave so employees could clean the floor. Carl later wrote a letter to the editor of the local newspaper saying, 'I have had many experiences in my lifetime as a WWII veteran, a retiree from the Ballistic Missile Defense Organization at the Pentagon, and the father of six children, but none as unusual as being asked to leave a restaurant so they could clean the floor under and around the table where I sat.' Carl says there are no 30-minute time limit signs posted at the restaurant, nor was it crowded at the time. The McDonald's corporate office addressed the situation and offered the Beckers two free coffees. Bitman By David Evjen Bitman1@aol.com Wednesday, March 12th, 2014 SPORTS SHIRT… The Los Angeles Lakers are expected to announce that Kobe Bryant will miss the rest of the season because of his fractured left knee. In December, Bryant returned from the Achilles tendon tear he suffered last April, then fractured his knee six games later and hasn’t been back since. The Jacksonville Jaguars traded quarterback Blaine Gabbert to the San Francisco 49ers yesterday for a sixth-round draft pick. Gabbert lost the starting job to Chad Henne due to injuries and ineffectiveness. The 49ers also picked up Miami Dolphins offensive tackle Jonathan Martin for a conditional draft pick. Former Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Michael Johnson has reportedly agreed to a deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers pending a physical. Johnson was the Bengals franchise player in 2013. The Dallas Cowboys have released DeMarcus Ware. Ware is the team's career sack leader and was scheduled to make $12.25 million in 2014. The move saves the Cowboys $16 million in cap space. Dallas Stars forward Rich Peverley is resting comfortably in a Dallas hospital and undergoing tests to determine what caused his cardiac event during Monday's game against the Columbus Blue Jackets. Peverley had been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation during training camp, but was treated and cleared to play. MMA fighter Joe Fisher might as well call it a career. While fighting in a match in Columbus, Ohio, Fisher’s opponent put him in a choke hold and he went to sleep. Had he been awake for what was about to happen, Fisher would’ve died of embarrassment. It seems his mother was in the audience and, fearing for her snowflake’s safety, she scaled the 9 foot octagon wall and rushed to his aid.

However, when Governor Branstad took questions from the press, he admitted that he and his wife, Chris, were packing their bags for an Arizona vacation. Apparently not getting scared straight behind bars was Arizona’s 34-year-old Daniel Clegg. Daniel was released from prison last Thursday morning and was picked up by a friend. The two were riding along Interstate 10 when police pulled them over an hour later for committing several traffic violations. Hopefully Daniel enjoyed his hour of freedom because he was sent back to jail after the officer saw him trying to wipe marijuana flakes off of his shirt and discovered he was carrying a loaded handgun and hollow point bullets. Erin Robertson is going to be staying in a Virginia Beach jail a little longer than he had hoped after a judge denied him bail. Last summer, Robertson was riding in a car that became involved in an accident, which killed his friend. Robertson was later arrested after he was caught trying to pawn his late friend’s $3000 camera. Still, Robertson might be a free man today had his jailhouse telephone calls not been recorded. In those calls, Robertson described how he wanted to smoke marijuana and punch a friend in the face when he got out of jail and threatened to kill a witness in the case, which happened to be his own father. The FBI says 21-year-old Jules Bahler robbed three Michigan banks over an eightday period ending last Wednesday. In one instance they say that Jules brandished a black submachine gun and demanded money. The robberies netted Jules $15,300, which he might’ve had more time to spend had he not posted a picture of himself on Facebook holding the aforementioned submachine gun despite being astutely warned by a friend not to show off his weapon like that because the police could be watching you could be arrested. They were and he was. Bitman By David Evjen Bitman1@aol.com Wednesday, March 12th, 2014 MO’ DUH… An unnamed Portland, Oregon family called 911 and told the dispatcher that they’d locked themselves in the bedroom to fend off an attacker. No, it wasn’t a home invasion robbery, it was their 22 pound cat named Lux that was hissing and charging at them. The family reported that the cat “went over the edge” and was very, very, very, very hostile. The family and their dog remained safe in the bedroom as responding officers used a dog snare to snag Lux and take him into custody. At last report Lux had mellowed and was back with the family. The honeymoon was over before it started for one unnamed man from Atlanta. As he and his bride flew to their honeymoon destination in Costa Rica they got into a drunken argument aboard their Delta Air Lines flight. The argument got so bad that the flight crew diverted to the Cayman Islands where the groom was escorted from the flight and taken into custody. As for the bride, she remained on the aircraft and continued on to Costa Rica by herself. New Jersey’s Richard Weiner is suing two Coldwell Banker real estate agents. Weiner hired agent Robert Lindsay to sell his home, but claims he purposely listed it above market value so it wouldn’t sell. Why? Weiner says it was so Lindsay could have a place to give a little wiener to fellow agent Jeannemarie Phelan. When Weiner became suspicious, he set up a hidden camera in the bedroom and caught them in the act. Perhaps the best part of all was when they finally looked directly into the camera, realized they’d been caught and gasped. Weiner is suing the agents for $1 million, while they filed a counter suit claiming extortion. Some 10 officers from the San Diego police department swarmed a building with guns and bulletproof vests. However, there was no criminal on the loose or hostage situation. It turns out that the armed officers had stormed a strip club to make sure all 30 dancers had proper permits and were in compliance. While they were there the officers also photographed the naked girls and documented all their tattoos so that citizens can rest easier at night knowing these vicious criminals are in check.
