Good morning, Cleveland. Here's some stuff to read while you ponder how Sam was ever into Diane.

— Josh Mandel will be sworn in today as Treasurer with the help of John Ratzenberger, who of course played Cliff on "Cheers." We would have went with George Wendt, but that's just us. (Cleveland.com)

— Ted Williams' first commercial has been hitting the airwaves: a spot for Kraft macaroni and cheese. No, you can not escape the Golden Voice guy. Not even for one day. (NewsNet5)

— Anderson Varejao has a torn tendon in his foot, meaning he'll miss the rest of the season. If this was an elaborate plan by GM Christ Grant to ensure the Cavs get the first pick in the draft, we're totally behind it. (Waiting For Next Year)

— An Ohio company has created a virtual pick-a-prize game that has become quite the sensation in the last week. The upside for most players is that their 3-year-olds can't climb into the computer and get stuck. (Dayton Daily News)
