• Siegfried & Roy reunite for one last performance at a benefit for the Lou Ruvo Brain Institute. And with their retirement goes the chance to ever again work the word "Sarmoti" into casual conversation.

• During a speech attacking President Obama for his "bastardization" of the Constitution, Rush Limbaugh confuses the Constitution with the Declaration of Independence. Like confusing "Rush Limbaugh" with "future of the Republican Party."

• Strip magician Criss Angel and former Hef girlfriend Holly Madison make their relationship disappear. You didn't have to be sitting in the front row to see how this illusion would turn out.

• Radio commentator Paul Harvey dies at age 90. And that's the end of the story.
