Robin's rundown: Wednesday, July 11 2012

Morning, you rock star you I mean how else do you explain that hair? Wink.

Hey are you feeling like your TV lineup is a lot lighter today? Millions of people are maaaaaad or confused at the outcome *they* are experiencing over the dust up between two TV heavyweights. Well of course it's about money! Tune in to see which of your favorite channels you may be missing and for how long!!

Developing as I write this:
A train derailed overnight near Columbus, Ohio, there's a huge fire going on. Residents say they heard and felt the explosion miles away.

A US Airways flight has been diverted and 5 crew members were rushed to the hospital. What in the world! We'll have the details as they come in.

The Supreme Court OK'd it but Congress is now taking a crack at the health-care law. I don't usually tease 'wait till you hear what they're saying on the house floor,' but really. WAIT till you hear what they're saying on the house floor!

Mystery solved. Who's stealing American flags from tombstones of Civil War veterans? Detective work and a motion camera discover it's a critter to blame.

An amazing find in the attic: vintage baseball cards worth millions.

Did country cutie Luke Bryan "cheat" on the national anthem? See if you think he pulled a Sarah Palin at baseball's all star game!

Plus you tell me: Is that so bad to have the words written somewhere in case of a brain fail? What is it with the anthem that leads to such a toss up of whether the performance is good or a fail? Tweet me @RobinMeade or do the Facebook thang.

Full disclosure: this comes after I successfully remembered the words to the anthem in front of Daytona NASCAR fans over the weekend. Thx NASCAR for the opportunity! See that on our blog: HLNtv.com/Robin
