"President Bush: ¿Dónde Está?": Bush toured Latin America to try and make some friends. And now, Mayan priests are ridding the air of what Bush left behind. Hmm.Senior New Correspondent Aasif Mandvi was recently made an official Senior Correspondent, as the "New" in his title suggests. Although I still haven't quite warmed up to him, having Mandvi on board may mean even less face-time for Rob Riggle, which is always good news. Anyway, Mandvi touched on the news that Halliburton is moving their CEO from Houston to... Dubai.

There are 33 versions of
the American Idol-style singing competition around the world, in 33 different countries. But, the
Idol franchise is about to launch into new territory. Instead of just one country, it will launch Latin
American Idol, covering an entire region. It will host auditions in four countries and is open to contestants from
Mexico and Central and South America. Except Brazil, which has its own version that launches April 5th.That's an awfully
large region to choose from and I imagine it has some smokin' hot talent.Here are the audition dates:
- Mexico City: April 22-23
- Caracas, Venezuela: April 29-30
- Bogota, Colombia: May 5-6
- Buenos Aires, Argentina: May 16-17
