Locker Talk: Cal Worthington dies, Captain America & Batman Save The Day & Miley's Wrecking Ball

We'll miss Cal, We'll miss Cal, We'll miss Cal!

I remember loving his commercials when I was about yay-high. It was truly a sad day for car dealerships everywhere when it was announced about the passing of Cal Worthington. The condition of his "dogs," spot, are currently unknown.

According to Dave Karalis, General Manager of Cal Worthington Ford in Long Beach, Worthington passed away after watching a football game with his family at his Big W ranch in Orland, California. The cause of death has yet to be determined, said family attorney Larry Miles.

Worthington, who died at the tender age of 92, is survived by six children and nine grandchildren. He, also, left behind four dealerships, a hippo, a snake, an elephant, an orca, a mountain lion, and a roller-skating bear. No word as of yet which, if any, will be his pall-bear-ers'.

Have no fear, Heroes4Higher are here!

These are the people that we need kids to look up to. Selfless people like this, regardless of what they're wearing, should be admired and applauded.

John Buckland and Troy Marcum - better known as Batman and Captain America - had to put their superhero training to the test the day they came across their toughest foe of the day; a burning house - WHAM! Joh-- I mean, Batman, took the lead over the Star Spangled Man as his firefighting instincts kicked in - KA-POW!

"It's getting pretty dark; I'm feeling around. I'll be darned if I feel something furry." Batman explained.

The cat, who's owners were out of town, had to be resuscitated by Batman himself, "The first look on the cats' face was," Batman said while he mimicked the cats horrified expression, "He hissed at me and everything."

I guess that's where animals differ from humans; being resuscitated by Batman would've been a fan boy/girl's dream. You can check out CNN's coverage on the incident here.

Miley wrecks the day!

Another day, another eye cleansing.

Miley made headlines once again with her new video, "Wrecking Ball." If you've watched the video, and by reading this article you've proven that your eyesight is still intact, so I'm assuming you haven't-- but if you have, you'll notice the intro was nothing to stick your tongue out, about. It's just Miley, her red lipstick and her pearly whites, singing away.

Didn't listen much to the lyrics itself, rather just watched her swing around, pantomiming her emotions as best to her ability.

She lives for the shock element, now. Everything she does is to get you talking about her around the water cooler the next day. Heck, I'm talking about her; I never talk about her.

It seems that she's either really trying to break free from her "Hannah Montana" past, at break-neck speed, or this has always been who she is. And In that event, she's possibly the greatest actress that's ever lived.
