goldberg contest this is a contest that pays tribute to rube goldberg a cartoonist who would draw these elaborate contraptions designed to complete very simple, very mundane taskes this machine has one purpose it zips up a zipper and we are going to show you how that works in about 7 minutes. guillermo, you are going to be the gishgs y the guy, you are going to be the zipper guy. >> guillermo: all right. i got home from new york very late last night. my flight was delayed a couple of hours because there was an electrical problem at air traffic control in chicago. an exhaust fan in the bathroom at air traffic control overheated and as a result of that, they had to evacuate the place for three hours and stop all air traffic coming in and going out. and you thought the guy who destroys the bathroom at your office was bad. this guy grounded planes a thousand miles away! did you know that the first quarter of this year this winter there were more flight cancellations than any quarter ever in the united states? 4.6 percent of all flights were cancelled mostly because of the weather. having your flight cancelled is a pain but it can also be good if you didn't want to go where you were headed in the first place. "bad news they cancelled my flight. i know. kiss the kids for me i guess i'll hang out here at home by myself this weekend." in fact there is a new airline. i don't know if you've heard about this but there is a new airline that is making being grounded instead of thinking of it as an inconvenience this airline promises no departures guaranteed. >> you want an airline, that works for you, a co-worker, or thanksgiving at your in-law's in tulsa. we make sure you don't get to where you are supposed to go. cancellation airlines. the world's first airline with 100% last minute flight cancellations guaranteed. >> sorry, honey, looks like we will miss your sister's performance in the "vagina monologues." >> you will be sure to miss out on your travel plans, efficiently, affordably and without blame. >> i will miss the family reunion picnic. dang. ♪ cancellation airlines by now i'm sure you've seen the video that shows beyoncÉ's sister solange, you know, the video, this happened at the standard hotel in new york after the met gala last week. tmz got the footage. >> jimmy: that's solange in the white dress. and pushing and punching. as the security guard pulls hear way. kicking jay-z. for whatever reason, beyonce stayed out of it completely. this is the opposite of the aero-smith song on the elevator. anyway, after this, beyonce has been posting pictures of herself and solange on her instgram and reports that jay-z and jay z and solange were jewelry shopping together yesterday. there has been a lot of speculation, but nobody knows what prompted the altercation. either way it was the moment the guy who sits there watching elevator security video has been waiting for his whole life. "something's finally happening!" just because we don't know what happened doesn't mean we can't guess. cnn headline news put a panel of talking heads together to try to figure it out. and i think they had an interesting take on this. >> a woman we think is beyonce staying out of the fray. let's get a panel together here. joining us, the human lie detector, jeannine driver. >> jimmy: that dog's opinion is just as valid as any of those other experts! meanwhile there's a new leaked audiotape of clippers owner donald sterling. another private conversation has made it's way to the internet. not only do they need to take donald sterling's team away, they also need to take away his phone. this time, the daily mail got their hands on a conversation sterling had with a rapper named maserati. does any one know him? in this one, mr. sterling regales his friend maserati with tales of various sexual encounters he had with v stiviano and also boasts about the positive impact he had on her life. >> here is a poor girl, mexican girl, never had anything in her life. never had food. never had clothes. and i meet her, she has got a fabulous body. and she loves to have sex. and she is just fun. and i say, well, what i've gave her some money? what if i helped her? what if i helped her family? god was good to me. >> that's true. >> i want to do it! and i did it! >> basically what you did was change the whole family's life. >> i changed the whole family's life. i changed it. >> yes, you did. you changed their lives. they changed your diapers. it was a win-win. >> did you know donald sterling has famous parents? >> jimmy: dr. and mrs. zaius sterling. his mom and dad. part two of his interview with anderson cooper aired on cnn tonight. if you missed part one on monday it may have been the first time i've ever seen an apology that was more offensive than the thing being apologized for. for some reason he lashed out at magic johnson he kept saying magic has aids, that magic hasn't done anything to help the african american community, and that magic is trying to use this scandal to trick him into selling the clippers to him. last night, anderson cooper sat down with magic who definitely took the high road. >> this notion i want his team, if i was going to trek somebody, deceive some body, be dishonest with some body, steal some body's franchise it is going to be the los angeles lakers. let me just relay that to you right now. it won't be the l.a. clippers. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: even when they win, the clippers can't win. magic johnson went on to say that he won't hold a grudge against donald sterling and that if he saw him in public he would say hello. which i would love to be a fly on the wall when that happens. magic will be here next week maybe we'll try to get them together. right. you guys aren't invited. this is something. i noticed an unusual trend over the past week criminals whose names match their crimes like this guy, who we showed last week. police charged an ottawa man with indecent exposure after several flashing incidents. john popadick. >> a flasher named popadick. i happened upon a story about this new england woman who's been racking up duis. >> new this morning, a massachusetts woman arrested on a seventh drunk driving charge. brenda drinkwater, accused of handing over her liquor store receipts. >> jimmy: that's right drinkwater is good advice and finally and i promise this is real a story about another flasher this one from rock hill, north carolina. >> rockhill police charged a man they say dropped his pants at waffle house. the police officer at the restaurant said 26-year-old ryan smallwood dropped his pants. >> what is he smiling about? it's like dr. seuss is writing the news. this is amazing. this happened yesterday in bakersfield. a 4-year-old was playing in his driveway when the the dog kicomes in, attacks him. when all of a sudden the family cat charges out - and chases the dog off! the mom checked the kid to make sure he was okay then ran after the dog and the kid gets the hello out of there. the boy gets up and gets the hell out of there. a hero cat! are you serious? like dogs -- like -- i bet someone got an extra fancy feast to reward her for that! hey we have something special for you tonight. as i mentioned a moment ago a rube goldberge is a machine that accomplishes a simple task in as complicated a way as possible. basically, it's an intentionally delightful waste time. every year since 19 # 3, students participate in an annual rube goldberg machine contest. teams of college students from all over the country design and build these crazy machines and enter them in a competition. each year they assign a specific task this year's task was to zip a zipper and with us tonight the winning squad, the purdue university rube goldberg team. come on out! how are you? welcome! welcome. welcome. congratulatis. thank you for coming. all right. so here we have -- adam, david, becca, jordan, andrew and ben. and you guys are the winning team. they said you have to come up with something that zip is a zipper. >> yes. so, per competition rules you have to have a 6'by 6'by 6'machines 20 steps or transfer of energy and has to complete the task. and zip it zipper. did it in 75 steps. >> jimmy: how do you get this in the back of your m
