| Cactus Pryor battles Alzheimer's
Writing a piece used to take me five minutes. It takes me a day now," he says. "Sure, he gets frustrated," says son Don Pryor, who also works at KLBJ and shares commentary duty with his father. "I look at it with the perspective that it takes me two or three days to write one." "Cactus at one-quarter speed is what the rest of us are at full speed," Davis Pryor says. Writing and relying on his recollection of Austin's rich history is good for Pryor. "Having difficulty remembering a password is quite typical, but his writing skills will remain intact because whenever he writes, it will be about things familiar to him like his distant past," says David Lipschitz, a leading geriatrician, chairman of the Ronald W. Reynolds Department of Geriatrics and director of the Institute on Aging at the University of Arkansas.

Britney Spears
Sam Lutfi was finally served the restraining order yesterday that effectively requires him to stay 250 feet from Britney Spears and have no contact with her whatsoever. The restraining order was set to expire today, but the judge in the case extended it to March 17, according to the AP: In court papers, Jeffrey Wexler, an attorney for her father, James Spears, wrote that "after three weeks of apparently evading service," Lutfi was served at 11 a.m. outside his Los Angeles apartment.
The order, which requires Lutfi to stay 250 yards away from Spears and her home, was set to expire Friday. Wexler had asked for the order to be extended. Poor Sam Lutfi. He must miss Britney Spears. I bet he walks in on random pap smears just to remember the good times. Surprisingly none of the women really cared until Sam started throwing Cheetos at them and screaming "Where's the checkbook?! I'll feed you to Satan!" Then it got a little weird.
