Spoon Bender Buys Elvis Home

I'm not sure if you noticed, but last week famed spoon bender Uri Geller (and partners) won an eBay auction for Elvis Presley's first Memphis home. Geller, not surprisingly a collector of Elvis memorabilia (not that there's anything wrong with that), said that he received a sign from Elvis himself telling him that the home would be his (not that there's anything wrong with that either). Geller and his partners plan on restoring the home potentially turning it into a museum and bringing children from Palestine and Israel to see it.

In other news, Lionel Richie seems to be big in Baghdad. Big in the obsessive kind of way...the kind that brings grown men to tears. In other words, Lionel Richie is to Iraq as David Hasselhoff is to Germany. Forget the bombs. Let's just drop a little love...in the form of Lionel Richie.
