1. Nothing on GMA! They had "Velvet" the ski warming dog and Jerry Springer
talking about the new "Dancing with the Stars" stars. A story about hidden caffeine in your food. Oh, also a grinning Dick Cheney saying how the British pullout from Iraq is "good news."

Creeps and bastids!

Unfortunately, you will win this bet!
