Buddy's new bar is hoppin' and there's Lion fever sweeping East Dillon. However, early into "The Right Hand of the Father" we find out that once again trouble is on the horizon.
For starters, there's some major fallout from last week's raucous party. Being that we live in the generation of camera phones and gossip blogs, of course a video of the party has hit the internet. Not just any old video, but one of rally girl initiation and the slutty redhead Maura getting passed around as a "drunk puppet."
Apparently the video got over 2000 hits, damn! For small town Dillon this must be going viral. The principal, parents, and Taylors are horrified however the students are far less apologetic, particularly Maura. She thinks it's funny and continues on her slutty spiral by almost banging a dude in the supply closet. I say almost because no one can pull that...

After the fiasco of Monday's "La Traviata" premiere, conductor Leonard Slatkin has bowed out of the Metropolitan Opera production for what the Met described as "personal reasons." Tension between him and the cast climaxed with reports last week of "a screaming fight" with star Angela Gheorghiu at a dress rehearsal, The Post's James Jorden reports. Critics slammed Slatkin's conducting, with Out West Arts observing "looks of fear in the vocalists' faces." Sniffed the Times' Anthony Tommasini, "I have seldom heard such faulty coordination...

Lake Havasu City, Ariz.- Folks laughed when chainsaw magnate Robert McCulloch announced he was bringing the 140-year old London Bridge to the Arizona desert.
Nobody laughs anymore.
In the late '60s, the London Bridge was sinking into the clay of London, England's Thames River. Built in 1831, it was the victim of its own immense weight.
London officials said they'd have to replace the bridge. But what to do with the old one -- the one of children's nursery rhymes?
Enter McCulloch. He and a buddy purchased the falling down bridge for $2.4 million. At the time it was the highest price ever paid for an antique.
For the next three years, workers disassembled the bridge in London, then flew its bricks to America where they were hauled to then-tiny Lake Havasu City where they were reassembled over a newly dug out lagoon alongside Lake Havasu. The bridge was ready...
