On Thursday, Piers Morgan used his "Only in America" segment to explain a situation in which Cleveland clearly did not rock.

Introducing the audience to a compassionate commuter, Morgan tells the story of John Davis, a man pulled over, and hit with an extremely silly citation, after hoping to aid the handicapped homeless:

"This is a photograph of the paralyzed panhandler that Mr. Davis saw," demonstrated the host. "He wanted to help him. So he pulled out a couple of dollars to make that man's day just go a little better than it was."

Attempting to reach out through his car window to pass along his donation, Davis inadvertently allowed the money to drop to the ground:

"Watching Mr. Davis' generosity was a police officer," explained Morgan. "You might think he would thank him for this laudable exercise. But no, you'd be wrong."

On Thursday evening, author, journalist and television news producer Lisa Cohen joined "Piers Morgan Tonight," offering her unique insight into the latest news in the Etan Patz case.

Nearly 33 years to the day since the 6-year-old boy went missing, yesterday 51-year-old Pedro Hernandez was arrested in Patz's death. The former Manhattan store clerk lived in the family's neighborhood when the boy went missing. Having literally written the book on the Patz case, Cohen called the latest development "extraordinary," noting that she had "never heard of this man before today."

Also on Thursday, comedienne, actress and author Ali Wentworth visited Morgan for an in-studio face to face interview. The host of Yahoo.com's "The Daily Shot," Wentworth's three to five minute web series is geared towards busy moms who need a quick "shot" of news in a hurry.

Discussing the current state of America politics, Wentworth wasn't above taking things below the belt: FULL POST

On Thursday, Piers Morgan teamed with Olympic champion Dara Torres, forming one of television's most unorthodox relays.

A 12-time medalist, and training for a sixth Games, the 45-year-old adheres to a rigorous regimen, both in and out of the pool:

"With my recovery, what I do now is I make sure I get lots of rest. I make sure that I do stretching, which is called ki-hara stretching, which really kind of stretches out your body to get the lactic acid out," explained the former Florida Gator. "And I make sure when I have muscle aches and pains, I use - get Bengay."

An official ambassador of the analgesic rub, Torres lists it as one of the key elements to her training: FULL POST

Coming up this evening at 9 p.m., "Piers Morgan Tonight" makes quite the splash, inviting 12-time Olympic medalist Dara Torres to the program for an extremely revealing sit down – and, at times – stand up interview.

The first U.S. swimmer to compete in five Olympic games, Torres is training for a 6th, and has the stomach to prove it.

Upon Morgan's urging, Torres rises from her chair, lifts her sweatshirt, and reveals a a sculpted set of abdominal muscles that would have women half her age – not mention the host – scooping their jaws up off the floor:

"Oh, my God. They weren’t kidding, were they," exclaims the significantly less-toned British presenter. "You actually have no stomach." FULL POST

On Wednesday, Piers Morgan used his "Only in America" segment to estimate the cost of repairing a broken heart.

Telling the tale of a disgruntled groom-to-be, Morgan concludes that often times a wedding officiant isn't as valuable as an attorney:

"Love may conquer all, but when it doesn't, there's always a fat, nasty lawsuit to cry over."

As the nation sees piles of paperwork and countless countersuits filed each year, the "Piers Morgan Tonight" host feels that a recent fiancé fiasco is as worrisome as they come:

"Meet Steven Silverstein. He's a 29-year-old telecommunications executive from New York, who instead of hearing wedding bells, is now, heading to court."

Having been left by fiancé Kendra Platt-Lee before the two even reached the aisle, Silverstein is suing, in an attempt to recoup funds related to the life they never got to spend together: FULL POST

On Wednesday evening, "Piers Morgan Tonight" rolled out a very special summer menu addition, setting the table with culinary queen Martha Stewart.

Joining Piers Morgan for a face to face discussion on everything from food to family trees, the 70-year-old business magnate revealed the one meal she'd choose, if she were down to that final reservation:

"If I was very hungry and I was told that I only had an hour?," she clarified the question. "I probably wouldn't be thinking about eating, Piers, but..."

"What would you start with?," wondered the host.

"Probably good, fresh eggs. Delicious salad from the garden," Stewart shared. "Boiled, scrambled. Just a really good farm butter."

"And the main course, what would you have?" he followed up.

"That's my main course," she concluded.

Being of British decent, it was of little surprise that the "Piers Morgan Tonight" host opted for another entrée entirely. FULL POST

Guns N' Roses and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame guitarist Slash joined Piers Morgan on Wednesday for a primetime exclusive interview. The legendary musician talked with Piers about his music, his battle with drug addiction and his iconic style.

In 1996, at the pinnacle of their success, Slash left Guns N' Roses and ended his friendship with lead singer Axl Rose. Recalling their last verbal exchange, Slash said, "I think the last word, basically it was just that 'I'm done.'" When asked by Piers if there was a possibility for the band to reunite, Slash responded, "I don't think it's a matter of that, it really isn't."

"I think you've got a situation where nobody involved wants to revisit - it's not just me," said Slash, "It's the whole, you know, the whole band. And so I don't think there's a price tag that anybody's going to put in front of us that's going to make that work, you know?"

Also on Wednesday, business executive, author and Mitt Romney supporter, Jack Welch joined Morgan for a quick sit down. On topic was Romney's strategy to present his work at Bain Capital as an example of job creation. FULL POST
