The recovery of large pieces of the aircraft continues. Crews pulled a 75-foot section of the right wing from the ocean...
...tapings are the way to go for maximum star potential. They're free and their tickets (for the most part) are easily obtainable. Just call up the station of your favorite show (i.e., ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, WB...) and show up at the studio on the day of. You'll probably bump into sitcom stars in adjoining sound stages on your way to the bathroom. (I never knew that Christina Applegate, Kelly Bundy on Fox's "Married With Children," wore glasses.)
