• Phew, The Hills, Bromance and Sponge Bob are still on TV. Time Warner and Viacom reached an agreement late last night with details being finalized in the next few days.
• Today was a great day to get out and enjoy a leisurely drive around the neighborhood. There was NOBODY on the roads.
• Today was the 9th annual Lions Surf City Splash in Huntington Beach. Participants take a plunge in the 56 degree ocean water in hopes of "washing off the old of 2008," says Lee Love.
• It's a new year and one website thinks it's time for some Celebs to change their look.
• We warned you, but some didn't listen. A man in Santa Ana was struck in the ankly by a falling bullet shortly after midnight.
• What would a New Year be without a New Years Baby? Gilan Newsom was born at Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center at exactly midnight last night. Wow, she's going to have some great Birthday parties!
