Ladies,  we're not saying you should use this as an EXCUSE to be HOSTILE and MISERABLE in  the morning.  But you could. A new study out of Duke University has  scientifically proven that WOMEN are more ANGRY, HOSTILE, and GRUMPY in the  morning than MEN. And there's actually a good reason:  Women's bodies need more  sleep than men's . . . approximately 20 minutes more.

  The study found that when women don't get enough sleep, it increases  their risk of heart disease, stroke, and depression.  Men's health is NOT  affected in the same way. So when women are angrier in the morning, it's  actually because their bodies are in more PAIN than men's from lack of sleep.

Thomas Edwards is a criminal  defense attorney in Gainesville, Florida.  On Saturday, he was arrested for  allegedly committing a HIT-AND-RUN while he was DRIVING DRUNK.

His mugshot wound up on a local website called MugshotsGainesville.com, that  posts all the mugshots of people who were recently arrested in the area.

And in a great twist of irony, his mugshot was displayed right next to an ad  for his LAW PRACTICE.

Edwards is one of the partners at Schackow, Mercadante & Edwards.  It  makes sense that they'd advertise on the mugshots site, because the people on it  probably need criminal defense attorneys.  But they weren't expecting  THIS.

Taylor Swift spent an hour on Saturday  visiting a 10-year-old cancer patient named Lauren Hacker at Omaha's Children's  Hospital.  

Lauren's father said Taylor was terrific.  She brought a "bag of goodies" and  autographed just about everything pushed her way.

Taylor's actually in town because her "Red" tour kicks off tomorrow  night in Omaha . . . but you have to give credit to Lauren's family and friends  for making it happen.

They put together a YouTube video featuring Taylor's song "You  Belong With Me" . . . but with the lyrics changed to talk about  Lauren's cancer and how she's a huge fan.  Taylor's people contacted them after  she saw the video.
