• Definition of irony: Officials for the Simi Valley Ronald Reagan Library cannot recall where 80,000 missing artifacts, including pieces from Reagan's prize belt buckle collection might have gone.

• : Rosie O'Donnell says a prime-time slot at MSNBC is no longer in the cards. Her blog, written in strange modernist verse, reports, "poof/my career as a pundit is over/b4 it began."

• : John McCain says ChristCo pro-lifer Pat Robertson's endorsement of Rudy Giuliani was one of those times when "I am left speechless." Other times: whenever Rudy mentions waterboarding.
