YOU DON'T KNOW BRUUUUUCE: There are actually some surprisingly interesting trivia tidbits about The Boss in "20 Things You Should Know About Bruce Springsteen," including the fact that he once opened for Anne Murray, he was offered $10 million to play the role of Che in Evita, and he intended to give the song "Hungry Heart" to the Ramones.

Here, by the way, are five more things about Bruce that you should know:
1. He does not have a wife or kids in Baltimore.
2. He does not have a friend who was a speed-ball pitcher back in high school.
3. Rosalita's parents were actually quite fond of him.
4. He received neither a union card or a wedding coat for his 19th birthday.
5. He is not on fire, or at least not in the literal sense.

And here's five more:
6. The edge of town? It's actually quite bright now.
7. She wasn't the one.
8. His guitar could not, in fact, talk.
9. He had no desire to be Wendy's friend, much less guard her dreams and visions.
10. When he was eight years old, his hometown newspaper cost 15 cents.
