On March 15th and 16th, 2008, Guernsey's Auction House will be auctioning off Anthony Pugliese's pop culture collection at The Palms Resort and Casino in Las Vegas. It's expected that the auction will net more than $5 million, with items like the gun used to kill Lee Harvey Oswald (JFK's assassin), the sword from the Oscar-winning movie Bravehart, the jacket worn by John Lennon in the Imagine video, a Superman costume, Tom Hanks' helmet from Saving Private Ryan, The Wicked Witch's hat from The Wizard of Oz, and even Elvis' ram shaped, jewel encrusted gold necklace...
This reminds me – I came across an amazing, very moving performance of John Lennon's Imagine on YouTube the other day. Check it out – you'll be glad you did.
And in similar news, Michael Jackson's 2800 acre Neverland Ranch will go up for Auction on March 19, 2008 unless he can come up with the outstanding balance of $24.5 million by then...

that american idol kid is annoyingly fake!!!! Yes, he sang well, but the "oh gosh! awww..thank you...awww, I'm so humble" crap has got to go!!! ugh! annoying.
Some people have mistaken him for being gay but actually, he's mormon, and from Salt Lake too, so maybe that explains a lot to you... It never occurred to Michelle and I that he could be fake and that's it all just an act – he's only 17 and we just thought he's shy and kind of a geek...
Anyways, he did sing the song amazingly well.
