220 Degrees+.

I dont think normal cars run this high. I've seen temps as high as 220 after getting off the highway. I just ran into a problem earlier today right when I parked into work. This small coolant hose, right be the oil filter, had a 1/8 in. cut somehow and leaked coolant like crazy. So now I have to replace it and it shouldnt be all that hard. But what other problems would cause this overheating problem? So far all I can think of are: bad headgasket or a bad water pump. I still need to have a leak down test done soon. So how bad is this kinda temperature on the engine? I've been running it like this for quite sometime now. It's been over the half mark (on temp gauge) ever since I bought the car. I need a brainstorm of other possible ideas....
