Al Pacino as 'Dr. Death'

Posted: 09:33 AM ET

Oscar-winner Al Pacino knows how to play intense, calculating men, and his new role will only enhance that ability. Pacino will be portraying Dr. Jack Kevorkian, a.k.a. "Dr. Death," in an upcoming HBO film titled "You Don't Know Jack."

Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley memorabilia is going on sale - you can even buy Presley's prescription medicine bottles. And if you're really rolling in the dough, feel free to purchase the $2.3 million home that was featured in the film "Ferris Bueller's Day Off."

CNN's Doug Hyde has more on these tidbits in today's buzz:

This is ridiculous. AT&T has been doing this for YEARS for various contestants – why is it suddenly news now? Because someone in the media finally got wind of it and had nothing better to report on that day? really?

Get over it. This is not a matter of national security.

I always like looking at the cnn message boards, because you can always count on someone to write something completely ridiculous. Thank you anne and tony, for continuing this rich tradition of moronic, unimportant contributions!
